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


Recommended Posts

do you guys wanna go see star trek at the movies instead? I've watched wolverine already so meh.

I'm at Kelvin Grove but I do work a fair bit around the Toowong area.. I have a blue 34, has nsw numberplates because I like to keep it mixed up :starwars:

If I pass another skyline I always give it a wave but 4/5 times they'll just give me a dirty look back :blush:

Chances are I've probably seen some of you around anyway... keen to meet up for dinner/beers/whatnot if it happens ;)

hey matey,

im almost in your position - i used to live on that side of town - but now im at wilston, just around the corner from kg!

next time we shud catch up first n cruise over to the otherss

Pretty... all its got when I bought it is a Trust Ti-R exhaust system and the small 18" Works Emo rims...

I'm thinking of downgrading the exhaust to something softer/legal and not have much effect on power. The others would be to get a new ecu, probably De-Jetro with Apexi PFC Boost Controller. And the most exp 1 would be to change those rims to 18" or 19" Volks TE37 or LMGT4 with proper offsets/width (current they're on 235 tyres!!!). And hopefully with these and a tune it'll gimme a safe 300kW.

Yeah for sure mate,

I just need to put the engine back in haha... I got bored and ripped out out on the weekend to do some cleaning, never ripped an engine out of a GTR before, didn't realise how much was involved so I got over putting it back in pretty quickly, resorted to driving the GF's car for the week :D

When is the next meet going to be on out of curiosity?

i see i see, imo dont butcher a v-spec r33 if its pretty stock, by going crazy with mods, that sounds good though - cant wait to check it out

in regards to the next meet not too sure hey, probs next thursday..

are you going to do anything to the motor now that its out? or just clean it?

you have too much spare time on your hands mate,

now that its out though - ill swap ya for my rb20 :D

Yea I wouldnt do anything more that that list. It just feels really laggy/sluggish now.

Anyway its just a shame that the time is always not right. Hope I'll make it the next time.

Nice mod list made.. if i was you should have a chat with PCE Performance Im sure they can work out a wicked deal for you with the ECU and other performance mods.

as for the meet most of us will be at the drift event watching astro and 32 dave. let me us know if u want to come along..i will be there when the gates open..

cheers.

Dunno if I'll make it out to QR tonight. Just got into work trying to convert my uni assignment to the right format so I can print it n bind it and the motherf**ker wont work. Might have to go home to get the original file and print it off at uni. I f**kin hate uni assignments. :verymad:

Where and what time is it? I'll see if I can make it.

Spotted green 33SUM this morning on the motorway to work this morning.

I enjoy giving boys between the ages of 5 and 10 phantom hands, and regularly do so in suburbs on the inner south.

In short, I am a dirty dirty man, and should be reported to the authorities ASAP.

    • Why are people so insistent on making dirty water?!
    • Fark what are the changes of that snapping like that, clean. Nek minnit, custom radiator goes in, with built in oil cooler like those discontinued PWR ones from yesterdeacades ago
    • I thought I'd do a write up on an auto transmission fluid change for a the nissan 7 speed Automatic. At some stage the genius engineers decided that the fluid in the trans was "for the life of the transmission", (which seems kind of self supporting to me) and removed the dip stick and fill tube (funnily enough there is still a casting for it). Anyway, for this job you do need 2 specialist tools in addition to regular hand tools, jack and good chassis stands. You need a way to pump fluid up to the transmission; I got one of these but there are plenty of other options: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364584087070 Don't trust the generic listing though, it does not come with the required adapter for the Nissan 7 Speed. You need one of these, can't do the job without it: https://navarapart.com.au/product/genuine-nissan-patrol-y62-d23-np300-navara-re7-dipstick-fill-connector1 You need a heap of compatible transmission oil. Could be Nissan, could be anything else rated for Nissan Matic S. You need at least 10 litres, I had 15 to give it a better flush... Also, you need some biiig oil catch trays, at least one of these, or bigger if possible (volume was fine, size was very marginal): https://autobarn.com.au/ab/Autobarn-Category/Tools-%26-Garage/Specialty-Tools/Oil-Service/Garage-Tough-Oil-Drain-Pan-Black-16L---GT1068/p/TO03191 Finally, a measuring jug is very useful if your pump does not have volumes marked on it, I got a 6l one: https://www.repco.com.au/oils-fluids/fluid-accessories/measuring-jugs/penrite-measuring-jug-6l-pmj006/p/A5322648 Oh, and gloves.....this stuff is horrible (not as bad as diff oil, but getting there) ....First, jack up your car.....
    • So I mentioned the apprentice, @LachyK helped take the bonnet off. We just undid the nuts on the hinges and unclipped the gas struts, then pulled the bonnet back a little as the front was catching on the front bar.  I had a good look at everything today and have removed the rams, repaired/reset the hinges and bolted it back together like it never happened. I'll do a separate write up on the repair, and I also removed the poppers from the Fuga today too to save grief down the road.....as said above it is at least $5k to repair retail. I'm also happier about my ability to prepare a race car, and less happy about Nis-nault's engineering (I can hear @GTSBoy sAfrican Americaning) because the top hose of the radiator didn't slip off.......it snapped clean off. By practice I put the hose clamp hard up against the flare on a neck to make it least likely to ever move (thanks @Neil!). I guess that puts a little more pressure on the end of the pipe as it is further away from the rad, but still, that is pretty shit. I've put it back on for now as there was a fair bit of neck still there, but obviously there is no lip on the neck any more so I don't think I'll track it again until I have a new rad. Speaking of which....more research required. It looks like Koyo makes a standard size radiator in ally which I'll grab in the meantime, but I really want something thicker so might have to go custom in the medium term (ouch) Coolant still needs a refill and I have the pressure tester on it over night, but other than a wash down of the engine bay it seems alright. And @MBS206 noted something noisy on the front of the engine and I think I agree....time for a new accessory belt and tensioners I think.
    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
