its a sunday cruise will be trafic on the roads so no sillies please

i suppose i had better make a flight plan :D

wasn't planning on driving like a fool, cant afford a fine or to have my car impounded.... besides the whole point of a cruise is to well cruise...not race :kiss:

Meeting in Glenelg for those out that way then moving on to TTP is how I understood it :)
oh btw guy dont want to be rude but please dont invite friends with lasers

i got no Problems with Shanon and her 200sx coming and other Nissan import turbos and well use discretion :D:kiss:

ummm anyone note that its the bay to birdwood run on this day??? and we heading from glenelg to ttp being the same way the classics are heading. think the r32 is 12years too early for this run. so dont be worried by ford lasers tagging along be more concerned about the 100 ford escorts coming along.

not to mention you'd wanna be on best behaviour with the amount of cops watching the run, not sure how they will like a bunch of skylines rolling together down there.

ah crap didnt realise that as for following eskies there are some around that would give us a run for our money

oh well least Birdwood isnt that far into the hills

mike i wasnt nessicerily pointing the finger @ you but a general statement to everyone that its not the mad mile where doing

yeah there's 1 eskie around adelaide with a v8 in it. not the most friendly chap though but thats another story.

was kinda keen to go check out some old school zed's, looks like im gonna have to try and drag myself out of bed early after a heavy night of drinking we'll have to wait n see how that go's

Steve,

Here is the route map of the bay to birdwood on the same day. Just steer clear of it and we'll be fine. :P

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
