SLED: i just filled up with mobile 8000, i like so far, dropped my idle slightly, engine doesn't sound as harsh, seems to drop the revs smoother when i put the clutch in, and just gives what seems like a quiter, yet deeper idle/cursing noise

i think i'll give it a few more tanks, see what economy is like.... BAHAHAHHAHAHA... but thumbs up so far!!! :D

and s2 of californication FTMFW!!!!! how good is it so far?!?!?!?!?!

"no one should ever have to see their own O face"

"did you just touch my ass?" LOL!!!!

FINALLY ITS BACK ,

was so happy when i saw it was out

btw , did you used to work at adrenalin ?

i would consider switching to Mobil 8000 but in Mobil's wisdom they closed about half of there station's and there's no Mobil's (maybe one) on the way to Melbourne and very few over there didn't see any really

I mix between Mobil 8000 (mostly), Shell Vpower, and BP Ultimate

get down to 15litres left and put 50 in of the next fuel on the list

:D

man these knees are crazy

just wanna hang & thats a teribble way to think

love my kiddies and being stay at home dad to youngest (eldest is yr-R at school), & the little bunny rabbit is becoming a nice companion (follows me a bit, cute)

just so sore, killing me slowly inside & out

start SR morphine patches tomorrow

on the good side, the Stagea looks pretty nice with the $110ea 17x7.5 +38 BJR Graphic mags. lowered another 2 circlips front and rear to 360/345mm

    • 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 Maybe the price is out of date?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/
