They'll get over it and so will we.

The fact that nisskid put my quote in his signature is just evidence of the immature attitude of many people on ns.com. I have no doubt that there are many people on there who can drive and more than likely better than me (Aussie for 1). But the fact that you read about almost every one of their cruises involves a crash from people going to fast in large groups causing rear-enders etc says it all. There are too many young kids who obviously feel they have a lot to prove. I feel for people like Loz, Billy-E etc who have nice silvias etc but are surround by people who drive like right dicks.

Hey guy's and Girl's,

It was great to see you all drive past me in Hahndorf and thanks for all the waves as you went past for the peeps that know me. :D

Sorry i could not make though as had to help out with my friends wedding. :)

damn . couldn't make it because my mate thought he was cool and decided to change the turbo on his 180 and fooked it up! so i helped him tow his car!

oh yes reminds me of my first car (mazda mx6 turbo) i was leading a cruise and lost the cars behind me but i kept going faster and faster and i was asking too much from myself and my car! and then i flew off the cliff and i haven't driven out there for a while now!

i was actually having a go at ns.com with that quote, i feel exactly the same way.

Interesting. I thought you posted it in your sig as you were a supporter of all things ns.com and were trying to make fun of SAU and my comments. After reading your post in the other thread on here, seems I was wrong.

However, I still fail to see how its a good thing having it in your signature on ns, just causes more un-warranted friction. Would you mind removing it?

Cheers

hope i didnt squash any toes by leading thru meadows to ashborne.

and sorry flick for pulling out in front of your car.

So thats who you were! No probs!

Luke (my co-pilot) asked if i knew who u were, I had no idea. Lucky we were just far enough back that the gravel didnt hit my car.

All good :)

Im uploading pics now, dont have many tho

i tried to move things along a litte as its a awesome rd to sit on the speed limit.

however as it turns out 60kph around the corners was fast enough for the r34gt.

no offence intended Cara, but you were going rather gingerly.

    • 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!
