Hi All,

Thought I'd post in here because not too much is in the events section.

Anyway, lets get all the Alice Springs skylines together for a cruise tonight, looks like you haven't all been too active lately.

Let me know the time and place.

howdy Ben!

nah, my car hasn't made it up here yet, I'm dirivng it up over xmas.

I have seen 2 skylines in town tho, a grey r32 driven by a young lady, and a black r34.

And I sure have noticed your car, it really stands out in a town full of SS commodores! Looks good :(

Yep,

i think the BP in town now has Ultimate,

The ONLY place to go to get your turbo looked at is this place called STREET TORQUE ph: 08 89527755 - Talk to Dallas. neat tidy workshop, and they he does pretty much EVERY single decently modified vehicle. the only place id take my car!!!

Street torque is the place to take it :)

when will you get into alice? you based in adelaide now?? or are YOU in adelaide, but your new skyline is comming up from somewhere? what are you driving now?

sorry for confusion :)

I live in Sydney, working in Alice for 6 months. Currently driving a rental pulsar.

But bringing my r33 up over christmas.

Thx for the workshop details, they look like what I'm after - I don't expect to need any work but just want to check out where to go if there are any problems - its good to see a knowledgable workshop up here.

Just one thing, is that the BP on gap rd, or is there one somewhere else? The car would love a good diet of 98 octane :)

yeah, I think everyone on SAU is in IT. I'm working out at the base until mid feb, we can catch up sometime in the new year.

Whats the story with the drag strip near the airport? is that ever used, or is everyone too busy zooming up and down the highway?

LOL. stuff using the airport, the highways is a good enough drag strip :(

LOL

the "old airport drag strip" is only a 1/8mile anyway :D

ps. nice speedo reading :D ive got one of them sitting around of my magna off the clock too, and the clock is at 240 :| woooooooooooosssshhh!!! lol.

yer, we will have to catch when

a) your car gets to alice

B) when my car gets out of the workshop

c) when i can afford to refuel my car :D

and

d) after christmas cos the cops hate me and i dont like driving when there' around cos they try to nab me for

i) too low

ii) too loud

iii) wheels outside of specification

iv) no rear view mirror

v) momo steering wheel

vi) excessive engine noise (twin throttle bodies ROAR my friend, you will hear it :D)

vii) clear tail lights *rolls eyes*

so as you can see, im a kinda target, hence why you prolly dont see me every day, but for a few days you will see me consectively :cheers: - i hide when i have to LOL

no way! that car attracts attention? :bahaha: Surely it can get faster than 240 tho, is that with all the current mods?

Good tip on BP too ultimate for 1.12/l much cheaper than tthe theives at Kings Canyon who charged 1.27 for standard 91 octane :hellpissed:

As for skylines, I've seen a grey R32 and a black R34. Not much of a collection.

I understand theres a few up in Darwin with all the army ppl - you guys should organise a cruise down, we can meet half way, say Tennant Creek lol.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
