I really don't understand you people.

You's sit and whinge behind your computer screen that there's not enough meetings/gatherings excetra, but I've got two events on the go at the moment, and only three people have responded to both.

If you's really want to get this thing happening, get off your arses and attend some meetings.

NOthing's going to be handed to you on a silver platter.

I've spent a lot of time organising the drive in movies and I've also spent alot of my own personal time liaising with the owners of the carpark trying to get us a place to meet.

If no one turns up to these events that I'm organising, I'm really going to give up and not bother with this anymore.

I can only agree with Slip. Once the club is up and running we may be able to get more interest, commitment and team work from people. The Sprint days are a prime example. Many clubs have championships for events (which can include all kinds of things, like sprints, drags, show and shine, cruise, and general attendance). So far the count at any event mentioned in the events forum here has been fairly low to non-existant. I know its early days still, and I know people have very good reasons, but I tend to think until the club becomes official and there is a structure things won't change much.

That aside, stay positive about this. We have a good variety of events happening (official or not) and it should cater for all types and interests in this club. I'd love to see more people at the events, but it's up to each individual to get involved. The only thing I can say is don't be backward in coming forward. As NismoGirl has said, get off your butts and come along. There is more enjoyment to owning a performance car than you may imagine.

Erin,

Although we have had our disagreements in the past, I can honestly say that your efforts are always noted and appreciated by most people who post in the qld section.

Dont get disheartened and keep up the good work...

Smooth.

    • Yeah pretty impressive hey, good to see quality products not over-shooting their prices. That's what drew me to buy the hypergear turbo, just a shame I've never got the chance to see it in action
    • Thank you GTSBoy and MBS206 I have done the compression test with the motor out of the vehicle, reason for the test was to see if I needed to remove the head and do rings etc while its out. I'm in the process of respraying the vehicle and tidying up a few things. Story behind it all is I've just purchased the skyline and it was running when I got it, never drove it on the street though as I wanted to pull it down and do it all up again before registering it. the gentleman I purchased it from told me the motor has a forged bottom end and has a decent tune through it but I was going to pull the sump off anyway to see if it is a forged bottom end. that's why I thought id do a compression test beforehand. 
    • Man, I'm kind of amazed that the price of the turbo has not changed in 7 years. Everything else is inflating beyond reason, but not this? Good on Tao / hypergear I guess? Anyways, good luck with the sale!
    • I'm selling my brand new, in the box, never used Hypergear ATR45 - and I had some additions I paid for a few yrs back when I purchased it. Never ended up having the rest of the money to add all the mods at once, so I just ended up slowly selling each part. I originally had it internally gated, with the dump pipe, however I found it was incompatible with what I was going to use it for, so I contacted (I think Ken) from Hypergear, and he and I messaged back and forth & he got me to ship the turbo back, where they modified it & made it externally gated, and gave me the 5 bolt dump pipe attachment for custom welding. (Photos below) This turbo like I said has never touched the inside of an engine bay, it's completely brand new, never used, been sitting in the same box it arrived in, covered in plastic & all. Below are the photos of it: And while the guys at Hypergear were making it in-shop, they sent me some photos of the process: I'm looking at selling this just because I'm in need of the money right now, and don't have plans on modifying the 34 anytime soon - and from reviews & peformance sheets, this turbo had amazing results back when I was researching. The turbo was purchased in 2018 for $1.9k, with the mods I got added on. Looking at the website now, for the same turbo they sell (ATR45SAT), with the current addons it adds up to $1830 for the turbo Current addons included: - Bolted dump adaptor - Ball bearing CHRA - Braided oil feeding line So I'm looking to possibly sell it for around $1800, with shipping included in that 1.8k, It cost me around $120 to ship - so yeah thought I'd throw it out there and see if anyone was interested in purchasing. Cheers!
