Anyway there is a bit of a move on to get cars going for the drags... is anyone else going or is it just a bit of a Spank meet... hopefully we should have a few cars there between Dev and Sciby... I might even have to race if I get my intercooler kit in time... maybe no front bar will be a good look... or I will just hack the crap out of mine and make the sucker fit... that is the plan anyway so why not before the drags... I hope the kit turns up...

The Stanza is coming to the Test and Tune and he has a few little mods done... including a 33 gearbox behind his SR and a new clutch set up... apparently there is no chance of the new clutch slipping so hopefully this test and tune... one wheel in the air and a 10 second... oh yeah...

It would be good to see a heap of the Rocky cars go down to this test and tune... I'd like to see the Pizza Haven Silvia go... and anyother little imports around...

any VTEC boys going down? I want to see what one of these little pocket rockets can do...

What about Nat's GTiR... She should try to beat Nathans best time... that would be funny to see...

Are any of the Kaos WRX's going down...

and what about Damian's S14 that was down at the last meet... he has done a bit of work to that... it would be good to see him get a few nice runs in...

It will be cooler weather than the last meet so that will be good for all the turbo cars... and NA cars alike... feel the dense air and see those times come down...

heck I'm talking myself into running on the 16th...

Actually one more quick note we are trying to organise a decent cruise tomorrow night at nine oclock from Shell Northside... the one right near north side plaza... park anywhere you can... hopefully we can organise a few cars... again it's open to anyone so bring you commodore... bring your 4 cylinder... bring your VTEC but better yet bring your BOOST... and we will meet you there... it should be a blast... we are always trying to organise cruises for all import heads...

so if you live out of town and are headed into Rockhampton on a weekend or even a thursday, put a post out on this thread and we will try our hardest to organise a bit of a get together... it always makes Rocky a bit more interesting when you are cruising with some like minded car nuts...

hey Justin... just remember brother the Hilux owners have conquered the sandstone tracks... Luke was the only member of the Suzi crew on hand... (someone else had to big a night beforehand) and luke just wasn't confident enough to punt the Suzi over the Canyon of DEATH... well really it was a little washout... but it was tuff as... I think we should do another night run to 4 mile soon... I know Steve is keen... his hilux hasn't rolled over in the last month... he thinks he's going soft...

yes well i must stress that i was quite intoxicated the prior day......which inevitably lead through into the next day!! Good to see the hielscher girl was there but apparently didnt have the team leader to show him the true characteristics of the suzan!! it will definately be conquered next time.......i mean if stevie can do it without rolling over......its easy!!

anyway enough of this giggling... I must go...

Rick the cruise on Thursday night is calling... you must come down and cut some laps... it is part of your duty as an import owner...

anyway for anyone else... including the 4x4 guys... I'll see you all at Shell Nthside at Nine oclock... be there or be square...

actually i would like to change that comment about stevie i made earlier ..... "i mean if stevie can do it without rolling over......its easy!!"

stevie has rolled it on some pretty girly sections........but i must admit he does give it a go (no matter how stupid it may seem)!!

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
