Was going to Dick Smith on Gore Hill trying to source some back light globes for the climate control buttons, they just cant seem to get the right ones in stock anywhere.

What where you driving? I don't recall any skylines when i was on pac hwy.

SNG.

hahaha.. you're memorable anyway Liz! :D

sif pick the new girl up!!! just trying to gather the chick skyiners on this forum! :)

Lol. im going to move into the actually thread to talk about this :blink:

so we can all stop whoring in this thread...

Saw a white whale GTR plates "GODZLA" or something similar stuck in traffic coming off the freeway from the city yesterday.

Hey, your plates are AB ** ** something right? I saw your car coming off Forestway so i sped up a little to catch up to you and pulled along side you, but you didnt have much of a reaction so i didn't think it was you and i don't know your plates. Anyhow, have you got standard light globes in your car? They looked very bright and white in my rear view mirror.

Yo man,

Late response but yeah that's me!! I turned that way to have a bit of a cruise, was gonna follow you a bit cos felt like a drive but yeah I thought maybe he thinks I'm trying to car jack him so he's pulled a quick exit-stage-left :blink:

I looked over to wave/say gday but yeah must have been at the wrong time :)

Lights are a kaixen HID kit from BATMBL - I think I have to adjust them down a little but the truth is the cut off is the same as my stock standard barina so I assumed it was the legal adjustment. It wasn't glary or blinding was it? (Hope not, I've been rolling around with that setting for ages and when I looked at it to test it was only blinding if you were about 2m from the car and below the headlights (looking up at the them)).

Woot next time ya see me lets go for a cruise!!!! :D

Hey,

Don't really remember now as that was a while ago, but i just remember thinking that the headlights were a "brighter whiter colour" light than most headlights which are usually more "duller yellowy colour" if that makes sense. Can't remember if it was blinding, did you find there was much of a difference when you converted them? The standard lights on the 32 arn't very good.

SNG.

    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
