So when's the next cruise?

I'm gonna have to resign from chief planner for the next cruise as I've just been invited to race in the National DH Series, so i need to get back to it and will take up most of my weekends.

Righto then ... I'll take it over.

Saturday 18th October 2008. Meet 4pm at the usual spot Kellie meets.

Thinking of doing a cruise to a location for some pics, then cruise to a location in the hills, then back to somewhere for a bite to eat.

I'll start putting together a map for the cruise.

Can I have a show of hands please :)

umm, what is this "usual" meet spot location that you mention?

never done a kelly cruise

the day you guys want a fast paced full-fueltank useage 300km 3hr route let me know.

southern peninsula area, stirling - mylor - echunga - meadows - strath - ashbourne - nangkita - mt compass - myponga - yank - second valley - then 3x laps of "mt hockenhein" :) - into victor - goolwa - strath - mt barker - home

if your stag can handle its a fast and awesome course

f**k the Stag ... I might get the bike out there this weekend :)

dude have you got a spare? :/

would love a ride with ya

I've got one spare out of 5 bikes, but its unregistered and uninsured right now ... and its my beloved TLR. :dry:

TLR is getting some loving soon. Rewire and general maintenance/check. Never failed me in 7 years and over 35,000kms of ownership, and I plan to keep it that way :P

Invited to race the nats... You just rock up and ride no invitaitons have never been needed....

Ohh and so much for saying you'll whip me at last race... seemed to beat you by a small 15 seconds with a mechanical issue :mellow:

Righto then ... I'll take it over.

Well that sounds good.. just as long as i can finish work early. Although i think a sunday cruise would better suit more people. I'm not fussed!!

WE'RE IN!!

    • 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/
