hey guys, new(ish) member here. couldnt find an intro thread, so thought id just start this.

i made an account a while ago, but forgot what it is.

anyway, im Tim, more commonly known as Ted.

i did live in Murray Bridge, but moved to Mannum recently.

i dont own a skyline, ive got a 180sx, but im sick of ns.com and the crap that comes with it, so thought this could be a good change, if you kind people will have me?

so, hope to see some of you around, and ill try and be a regular poster, as long as everyone is cool with me not owning a skyline.

cheers.

Welcome mate, a little different over here than NS, you will see!!

Welcome mate, a little different over here than NS, you will see!!

I officially eat my own words.......

Its actually Ted and Nisskid that make things interesting over here, they arent sheep and continue the ass sucking theme, Its funny looking back at this thread and seeing the replies, Wheres Dan gone, someone else who would tell it like it is, and not be afraid to voice his opinion, seems too many people here these days are too caught up in telling people what they want to hear, and also need thicker skin.

Oh and when people read posts, maybe stop and think what mood your in, If your in a shitty mood then your more than likely going to read what someone has written in a angry way, when they were clearly not using bad taste when posting. eg SAU SA thread, simply suggesting ideas to help out, but NO flamed for helping. Respect for this joint and its users........GONE!!

    • Yea that's a fair assumption. I'm presuming they call them solid lifters as they have no moving parts like hydro lifters. 
    • I believe you're confusing WMI with water injection. Looking at that graph, the 93aki+WMI car is making more power than C16 race gas. Boost juice, which is what I also run, is Snow Performances 50/50 premix. 
    • 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).
