Hey Dynamix, seen ya today turn from musgrave st onto high st...

I was in the gf's lancer but :worship:

GTR looks very tidy..

That might have been me buddy, probly going to work or something like that, what colour is your gt-r, so far i've only seen a gun metal one belonging to an old guy i had a chat with for about an hour at autobahn and a beautful white one with gold centre bbs lm rims..

Mine is white with carbon bonnet. I got no licence for another 5 weeks but it'll be going down to benaraby drags this friday night. You should come down. Always a healthy turnout of imports. Welcome to cruise down with us but we're leaving at 5pm so we make it for scrutineering.

Here's a pic of mine...

ISR33 used to belong to a guy called dwain.

there is a vid of him and tyler ripping a skid side by side.

Saw the GTR bud, its looking good.

The old guy is probably glen nelson. That car is maintained like no other ive ever seen. He polished the whole exhaust on a hoist. goes hard too. It had R33 GTR rims right?

Greeat looking gt-r NoFX, if you ever wanna get rid or some parts for it, give me a buzz, i'm always keen to get stuff for mine.. Thanks for the invite too but i'll have to pass, got the mother in law coming up for a week to stay with us.. maybe some other time!

Granthem, it was the one with r33 gtr rims alright, was one of the cleanest r32s/skylines i've ver seen.. seems like a nice bloke too!

Yeah cheers mate. Still thinking about offing the cf bonnet. See how it goes when i get my licence back. If it starts attracting attention again i might have to.

Glen's gtr is so tidy. Always see him driving around when we go down the beach...

Amazing how big the car scene is in rocky for such a small town.

  • 3 weeks later...

hey guys, just got back from up north was in rocky last night only for the 1 night, was down at the criterion drinking with my mate and was watching all the cars cruising round. also saw granthem's 34 parked down near hj's. my mate showed me it. very nice and clean looking. i like it. also saw some chicks driving a maroon r33 and a silver 33 cruising round aswell. and a white gsr lancer, that crazy looking pink civic with chromies, and a green crx with full kit looked like ex hot 4's car. anyway none of you probably would have seen my car wasnt driving it round much whilst i was there, started drinking instead.

Yeah there is a surprising amount of skylines in rocky. Especially R33's.

Shoulda stayed til Sunday as we're having a cruise down to yeppoon sunday lunchtime...

Dynamix if ya keen, meeting at BP at 1pm and leaving 1:15 to head down the beach. All welcome and I think we'll have a few nice cars heading down including Granthem's R34, a type x 180, possibly a supra, pulsar turbo and a few others...

Shit, I would have been keen but I have the car in parts atm, got white faced el dials to install and a new 50mm tripple core radiator to put in, just waiting on f#cking parts to show up..

yeah unfortunately i couldnt stay, i was down in gladstone for the week but only drove up to visit a mate in rocky for the day/night.

saw granthem's 34 parked down near hj's. my mate showed me it. very nice and clean looking. i like it.

Cheers. Its parked there cause i work in the building next to hungrys. Sucks cause food is so close all the time.

Hopefully we can pull a bigish number to the proper cruise

Not many of the thousands of skylines in rocky seem to be on here though?

Yeah which just goes to show that the reason they own skylines is to look rad and pik up da chix fuly sik bro lolz.

Next one is 11th May. Not sure if my car is going to make it sadly, since it seems the gearbox may be f'd along with the 4WD... Might be in there a bit longer than I hoped.

Edited by NoFX_Hardcore

Nah not sure who they are but there is a billion 33's in rocky... Not bad for a population of 60,000 :P

Next benaraby is Friday 23rd May. Scrutineering is 5pm-7pm; racing 6pm-10pm.

I should hopefully be at this one in 4WD FINALLY!!!!! So yeah mate come down check it out. Costs about 50$ to race including ya insurance. Just need a helmet(adr approved), long sleeve shirt, long pants and covered in shoes. Hope to see you there :P

Yeah mate try come down. I should be there if all goes to plan.

If ya not doing anything on the 18th May (sun week), we're having a beach cruise from Rocky to Yeppoon. I think a couple of guys from gladstone are coming hopefully. You're welcome to come along.

Here's my ride, had it since December 2006, put about 7000 kms on it in this time, including the trip from Townsville, did come from Mt Isa though. Pretty much came how is, except the genuine GTR wing, and the LED taillights so far, just been repairing mainly. Haven't really driven it that much since August last year when the seatbelts gave way, then the stereo came out to do custom boxing, hasn't happened yet. Now the control arm is gone in the front drivers, got it replaced, this one was stuffed too. Now its just sitting in the yard cuz i need a new battery.

It's the only one with the LED lights in town atm, there is another white series 2 with the same front bar, and a standard kitted series 2 white with sunroof...but i had to have both, if it didn't have the sunroof i was not interested, was looking at 34's but the were 27'000+ at the time. So i bought this 33 GTS-T 40TH anniversary.

Maybe you'll c it out one day but atm i'll be in the cream VL Commy :P

yeh seen your car fueling up at shell mate. Your right not too many have chosen the LED rear lights in town, chris's silver SII does have them though.

You wanted a sunroom that bad hey? everyone ive spoken to who has ever owned one never wanted another one again lol

Hmm never seen that one before. Looks nice man. I like that front bar. If you got nothing else to do, come down to the beach this sunday. Leaving from Northside BP at 1:30pm (meeting at 1pm, leaving by 1:30)

    • 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/
