Looked like the cruise was awesome! Didn't know that many Stag's even existed in Adelaide lol

There's a few more Stags yet :) Alot of guys couldn't make it. We had 15 turn out. I'd like to see us crack the 20 mark next time now summer is coming in and all :P

Yes was an excellent day, would've stayed until Semaphore but had no idea where we were going to stop! And considering I live south wasn't too keen on the drive back. Good to meet more Stag owners, there's some damn nice ones out there! Anyways, a couple of pics - I think everyone else has the other loc's covered. Catch you all next time.

Forgot to warn all to wind up their windows for when Ben went thru the tunnel :)

Now Nene knows how loud that thing is :D

Wind them up? I kept the windows open for that reason!! I heard about it through the tunnels and wanted to hear it for myself. I like!! :P

Was great to see so many Stags out, sorry I couldn't carry on for the cruise. The little miss got hungry about 10 minutes down the road so it was a good thing we didn't come along! Hopefully we can make it along next time.

I have some pics that I'll post up later :laugh: Thanks everyone for the friendly welcome!

i do but my computer at home has crapped itself.... need to get it fixed to upload the pics :(

Well? Chop, chop ... get to it :D

j/k ... I've got a mate helping me with upgrading, moving files from drives and networking our PCs at home ... I can get him to look at your PC if you want.

i completely forgot i had my point-n-shoot camera in the glovebox.

should have taken the SLR out though, but couldnt be stuffed after taking 500 photos at gazzanats the day before :ninja:

wish i had. was some awesome looking cars and driving around with volvos dominating the roads was a cool sight.

Sounds good, welcome to the forum. Would advise against getting a turbo timer, not only are they defectable, theyre completely useless ;)

LOL James.....you're a year too late

Not to worry ... check out the Stagea forums for the next cruise. There is also a Stagea dyno day coming up. Look forward to seeing you there.

:)

I thought to myself 'how did I not see this come up' and then saw the date!! Pitty the title didn't have the year in it - not that it should need it!

I was expecting one of the more long term members to step upto the plate,

But yeah I can organise something - Let the weather get a little warmer yet I think.

    • 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/
