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)!!

    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.
