General Meeting Williamstown Cruise/photo Shoot


Recommended Posts

Tonight we ran a short cruise over to Williamstown as part of the January General Meeting.

We thought it would be a great way to start the year off . As there was not a lot to cover at

the meeting because of the christmas break.

Not all could come but we had 16 cars head up over the West Gate down in to Williamstown

for a photo shoot (By Joel Strickland & Sarah Biggin ) along the coast line with a nice view

of the Melbourne skyline behind us.

I hope you all enjoyed the night and once again it was great to see a lot of new faces.

Thank you all for coming. And a big :( to Sarah and Joel..

If you guys took some of your own pic post them up here..

Cheers

Wayne.. ( SAUvic Events Co-Ordinator )

thanks Sarah for great pics again!

im upset i totally forgot my camera as i rushed to get to the metting

also, it could have almost been my last photoshoot, i met some mates after the meet at doncaster pancake parlour, where we then headed out to king lake and healsville through all the twisties. i was chasing an m3 series bmw and dont know the roads well enough to be going the speeds i was and was all over the road almost into the cliff lol. then 5 mins later a wombat starts charging at my car! i thought after this if i wanted to make another meet id better take it a little easier :)

see ya next time! :(

I ahve lived in Williamstown for the last 24 years (just moved). I never drive my r33 there to visit parents or mates. There are so many cops in williamstown as it is the head for the water police and also they have had massive crackldowns on "hoons" over the years due to racing and burnouts along the beach. I ahve seen the mobile vic road roadworthy checks there many times at night with the help of the SES lights!!

Anyway hope it was a good day!

    • Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
    • Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).
    • Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
    • Perhaps the answer is... more jacks!* *proper jacks must be used.  
    • I NEVER think about using a scissor jack unless there is absolutely no other alternative. f**king things are dangerous, annoying and stupid.
