Defs bud, The 33 is not coming along too badly either. See you own a 33 and still wave to others. That must make about 5 in QLD that are not too busy to acknowledge others.

haha yea the others are either rude pricks or unaware of this website

Multi-coloured R34 with an SAU sticker on Beaudesert Rd, I'm guessing you're getting panel work and a respray :P

lol diggin up an oldie, that was me, i'm just too lazy to post in here :D She's all black now (xcept the bootlid)

Ah, I see, not too far from me.

I'm always around here, i'm in Capalaba.

Surprised you haven't seen me around. Always around place, going through alex hills down to ormiston/cleveland.

Fair enough, going down for good?

Was it a Black 35? He lives down Lyndon Rd somewhere, I always see if going that way on Redland Bay Rd. I wave and he thinks i'm a hoon.

I'll keep an eye out :D Yeah going down for good, it's my home-town afterall.

That sounds like him.. though I can't exactly recall the colour, but the description of the driver sounds about right lol

Spotted some rich P plater in a V35 near Robina,

He was tailgating me....

If you're on here buddy smartin up ay!

Just coz you've got your license doesn't mean you're Ken Block.

One day you'll do it to the wrong guy on the Gold Coast....

Not long ago a guy cut someone off in Burleigh and the guy that got cut off pulled out a gun and shot the dude.

Just giving some feedback haha.

PS. Don't ever tailgate me again ;)

Spotted R34 "becky" on the weekend heading south beaudesert rd. Gave you the thumbs up in the the 4 door 34. If you ever win the lotto - pls give me that beast lol.

Whoops. Memory fail. was actually "Becks" with an S. Awesome ride anyways. Now gimme your keys. :blink:

+1

Remember meeting Joe the first time you came out Hylian? He was the guy riding with me. That's his 33.

I've never seen that car before and I drive through there a fair bit - looks really good though ^_^

There's another red 32 gtst getting around albany creek now with stock plates. I get pants happy when I see it 'cause I think it's yours but then I don't see you.

:)

He brings it MOST weeks. So if you want a better look at it I'm sure he'll give you the tour.

I haven't seen another stock plate (red) one around here. Just the one without the spoiler. Pretty sure that guy has PPQs though.

Yeah there's a dude in A/C with ppq's - he's an older guy though.

The one I was talking about has the spoiler and he's got dark hair, looks kinda skinny.

    • Also, I logged some data from the ECU for each session (mostly oil pressures and various temps, but also speed, revs etc, can't believe I forgot accelerator position). The Ecutek data loads nicely to datazap, I got good data from sessions 2, 3 and 4: https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-2?log=0&data=7 https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-3?log=0&data=6 https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-4?log=0&data=6 Each session is cut into 3 files but loaded together, you can change between them in the top left. As the test sessions are mostly about the car, not me, I basically start by checking the oil pressure (good, or at least consistent all day). These have an electrically controlled oil pump which targets 25psi(!) at low load and 50 at high. I'm running a much thicker oil than recommended by nissan (they said 0w20, I'm running 10w40) so its a little higher. The main thing is that it doesn't drop too far, eg in the long left hand fish hook, or under brakes so I know I'm not getting oil surge. Good start. Then Oil and Coolant temp, plus intercooler and intake temps, like this: Keeping in mind ambient was about 5o at session 2, I'd say the oil temp is good. The coolant temp as OK but a big worry for hot days (it was getting to 110 back in Feb when it was 35o) so I need to keep addressing that. The water to air intercooler is working totally backwards where we get 5o air in the intake, squish/warm it in the turbos (unknown temp) then run it through the intercoolers which are say 65o max in this case, then the result is 20o air into the engine......the day was too atypical to draw a conclusion on that I think, in the united states of freedom they do a lot of upsizing the intercooler and heat exchanger cores to get those temps down but they were OK this time. The other interesting (but not concerning) part for me was the turbo speed vs boost graph: I circled an example from the main straight. With the tune boost peaks at around 18psi but it deliberately drops to about 14psi at redline because the turbos are tiny - they choke at high revs and just create more heat than power if you run them hard all the way. But you can also see the turbo speed at the same time; it raises from about 180,000rpm to 210,000rpm which the boost falls....imagine the turbine speed if they held 18psi to redline. The wastegates are electrically controlled so there is a heap of logic about boost target, actual boost, delta etc etc but it all seems to work well
    • hahah when youtube subscribers are faster than my updates here. Yes some vid from the day is up, here:  Note that as with all track day videos it is boring watching after the bloopers at the start.  The off was a genuine surprise to me, I've literally done a thousand laps around the place and I've never had instability there; basically it rolled into oversteer, slipped, gripped and spat me out. On the way off I mowed down one of the instructor's cones and it sat there all day looking at me with accusing cone eyes as I drove past. 1:13:20 was my fastest lap, and it was in the second session, 3rd lap.  It (or me!) got slower throughout the day as it got hotter.      
    • It sounds like you want what the Toyota Landcruisers have for their roof racks. Wanna know what you end up with? Rust holes in the roof, and water everywhere...
    • Discovered today that if I select reverse first and take my foot off the brake, then select drive, the drive indicator light works and so does the tiptronic gear indicator. 
    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Does anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
