Inner West Crew Whoretown (toowong/st Lucia/kenmore/indooroopilly And Sometimes Sunnybank?)

So I get bored easily, and I dunno anyone local. Back home in Melb we used to have a little posse of SAU'ers, all around the same age and mentality... mostly students at Uni, with some regular sports cars. We meet up once a fortnight or week for a small cruise, grab some dinner, work on each others cars, go to the movies or play poker etc. Very social and nothing too car orientated, no attitudes and no egos.

Anyways, me and a mate do this up here as well in Brissy, and there's buttloads of imports we see around, but not many seem active. we were thinking of trying to get more people into this little group... so... If you're local, post up, and I'll try and organise a little meet up that's local.

Thanks for the reminder mate :D think a visit's long overdue. Might try and pop in on the weekend sometime, I'll call ahead to double check.

Hehe, I doubt you'd be up for the 10pm late night bubble tea runs I had in mind with this little thread tho. :banana:

Mate I'm on a whacked out schedule now, usually still up around 2am. Got me another V8 Soarer with a very nice soundtrack, so I'm enjoying driving again. GTR tends to be too harsh unless I'm feeling really good and the Ute, being an Oz built car is just POO! I'm intrigued by bubble tea now.

But you are welcome anytime. A quick buzz to make sure but chances are I will be here.

Ooh! me me!! im in Those inner suburbs that you talk about!!... I live right next to Paint chipz & LoLZ performance!...

You're a frikkin comedian.

Yeah Kenmore’s my stomping ground. Put something together and ill be keen.

For all your performance parts come see us, Hiro Performance. You may have seen the black R34 driving round that area.

might be putting together a local pizza meet this thursday or something. Stay tuned, will PM people who posted up in this thread more info once confirmed.

I see a yellow R34 GTt parked on High St everyday I go to work. Wonder who that is.

Also, where's all the St Lucia guys I see around at UQ?

    • For fuelling the Haltechs have O2WB fuel controllers. Very useful for helping tuning VE and correcting for *small* mistakes. Of course if your injector/cam/trigger/sensor data is just wrong (or for a GTT which is not a GT) then you will get impossible reactions to things. I am sure you know this already but the reason people don't typically put haltechs (or any Aftermarket ECU) on GT's is because there's practically no real gains to be had - So this knowledge won't be commonplace.
    • Can someone tell me if the cracks seen in the rear sway bar bushings in these photo's is unacceptable from a roadworthy point of view?  
    • Shouldn't need a "base map" for anything other than guidance to ignition tuning. You just need the engine capacity right, the injector size right, and something, almost anything, for a VE map. On an NA engine, fuelling is almost completely a function of load signal & rpm. It should run and drive with a completely flat fuel map. It will be too lean under load, but that's easily fixed. We used to tune all ECUs without any base map. There were no such things (until someone had tuned a near stock engine on one, and then they had a "base map".
    • What did you actually buy/how much did it cost? When I got mine in like.. 2017...? 2019? the aim was to run Torque for gauges via ODB2 and things like Track Addict/Laptimers/Dashcam/Reversecam/Spotify etc. Mine never broke, but I wonder if you've got the same needs (it sounds like it). Cause I liked the idea of being able to do anything with it. That said, yours also cost 3x the cost of what I spent so... food for thought.  
    • For me there is a massive difference in manufacturer or big brand crippled android (Sony, Kenwood etc) vs the sort of thing I've installed here, which is basically just a tablet in DIN form factor with open Android, and the other model of course is mirroring - Android Auto/Carplay. I hate the locked down manufacturer and AA options where they decide what apps I'm allowed to install, including the Launcher but also importantly things like Ecutek (for this car) or Real Dash (Stagea) are not supported. Plus those crippled versions tend to be slower due to both overheads and lower spec hardware. On the other hand, when this breaks I'll likely be in trouble for support....but how is that different to owning an Infiniti anyway
