Adam, that guy has had them for like 2 years.. I remember the first time I saw them :

spotted a gunmetal r32 gts that used to have a gtr badge on the back but was ripped off still had the glue and shit, TNT 555 I tnink, was sitting behind him for a few minutes

Just saw DHC giving me the hurry up just after rosville bridge on warringah road. Very nice 34 mate!!!! I wanted to play but i have a track day coming up in a few weeks so i dont want to get done before that!!! Besides saw heaps of cops round tonight!!!!

Spotted a non-turbo R33 GTS25 4-door this afternoon in my street - seen it a few times before too - and noticed that the driver was an older (mid-late 40's or above) Indian-looking woman, hahaha...

The wheels looked kinda like the factory mesh-pattern mags on my Stagea, strangely enough.

Spotted a whole heap of SAU buddies down at Northern Beaches Performance last night.... just want to say a big thank you to everyone who showed up, hope the BBQ didn't kill anyone overnight!

Cheers

haha sorry dude...hope I wasnt being rude !!

I was lost and frustrated and late to stans bbq opening thingy......I live out near blacktown so im a fish out of water when it comes to chatswood/northen beaches area !!!!!

But yeah yours was the white 32 gtst yeah ?? I think your inner rear lights didnt light up ?

anyways just before I passed you I got stopped by Tolga (I think his nick is GTST on sau ?) just outside the Great Northen(he was giving me directions !) and a white 32 gtr with plates OSAKA went passed and gave it a bit of a rev....

you on here ??? car sounds HOT.

Oh yeah Tolga thanks for the directions once again !!!! It was a breeze to find after you gave me them directions !!!

Yeah that was me in the white 32. Your car looks NIIIICCCCEEEEE. Something about a clean black car at night just looks evil specially if its a skyline!!!!!! Not being rude i wanted to have fun but i was reall sketchy comig home from work that night cause the cops were hiding near one of the ramps near my work and flicked on the lights right when i went past them, Turns out they were booking a 300zx that was right near me!!!!!

Hey i live on the beaches but ive never seen that workshop where is it??????

SANGER: We are down in Manly Vale - last night was our opening BBQ, I posted a semi-private invite on the whore thread...

PM me for more details! Feel free to come down anytime, we're there most of the time :D

    • Also, I logged some data from the ECU for each session (mostly oil pressures and various temps, but also speed, revs etc, can't believe I forgot accelerator position). The Ecutek data loads nicely to datazap, I got good data from sessions 2, 3 and 4: https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-2?log=0&data=7 https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-3?log=0&data=6 https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-4?log=0&data=6 Each session is cut into 3 files but loaded together, you can change between them in the top left. As the test sessions are mostly about the car, not me, I basically start by checking the oil pressure (good, or at least consistent all day). These have an electrically controlled oil pump which targets 25psi(!) at low load and 50 at high. I'm running a much thicker oil than recommended by nissan (they said 0w20, I'm running 10w40) so its a little higher. The main thing is that it doesn't drop too far, eg in the long left hand fish hook, or under brakes so I know I'm not getting oil surge. Good start. Then Oil and Coolant temp, plus intercooler and intake temps, like this: Keeping in mind ambient was about 5o at session 2, I'd say the oil temp is good. The coolant temp as OK but a big worry for hot days (it was getting to 110 back in Feb when it was 35o) so I need to keep addressing that. The water to air intercooler is working totally backwards where we get 5o air in the intake, squish/warm it in the turbos (unknown temp) then run it through the intercoolers which are say 65o max in this case, then the result is 20o air into the engine......the day was too atypical to draw a conclusion on that I think, in the united states of freedom they do a lot of upsizing the intercooler and heat exchanger cores to get those temps down but they were OK this time. The other interesting (but not concerning) part for me was the turbo speed vs boost graph: I circled an example from the main straight. With the tune boost peaks at around 18psi but it deliberately drops to about 14psi at redline because the turbos are tiny - they choke at high revs and just create more heat than power if you run them hard all the way. But you can also see the turbo speed at the same time; it raises from about 180,000rpm to 210,000rpm which the boost falls....imagine the turbine speed if they held 18psi to redline. The wastegates are electrically controlled so there is a heap of logic about boost target, actual boost, delta etc etc but it all seems to work well
    • hahah when youtube subscribers are faster than my updates here. Yes some vid from the day is up, here:  Note that as with all track day videos it is boring watching after the bloopers at the start.  The off was a genuine surprise to me, I've literally done a thousand laps around the place and I've never had instability there; basically it rolled into oversteer, slipped, gripped and spat me out. On the way off I mowed down one of the instructor's cones and it sat there all day looking at me with accusing cone eyes as I drove past. 1:13:20 was my fastest lap, and it was in the second session, 3rd lap.  It (or me!) got slower throughout the day as it got hotter.      
    • It sounds like you want what the Toyota Landcruisers have for their roof racks. Wanna know what you end up with? Rust holes in the roof, and water everywhere...
    • Discovered today that if I select reverse first and take my foot off the brake, then select drive, the drive indicator light works and so does the tiptronic gear indicator. 
    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Does anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
