yeah i ended up with them , i was up at regatta point at 9 to meet u guys, but no one was there(maybe i was in the wrong spot) so i saw some cars sitting at the flagpoles behind questacon, cruised down and all of the gt boys were there.

but yeah dunno how the cops tracked us down later, we hadnt even arranged to meet where they got us. but yeah thinkk on a friday night they would have a reall job to do!!!

Saw 3 Wine Red R33 Skylines driving from Kingston to Civic tonight.  A nice white 33 outside insomnia.  One or two more here and there.  So many 33's :S

Good to see a few more 34s out, someone break the ice and bring in a 34GTR :)

Try finding a decent one. I did... for 6 months. :)

A few decent one's around - Only problem is they are mainly well into the 100 grand mark. And the way compliance plates R going, I don't think there are gonna be many more anytime soon (Anyone know if 34 GTR's are compliable yet?). Contempt, would you still consider trading ur 350z to get one?

Was that your maroon skyline Veilside R33? Mine was the silver one. Got to many red lights and lost you guys in Braddon so we decided to got to head out to Manuka, but yeah there were are few cops out that night and they pulled over some cars.

No, they still can't be bloody complied. :) I talked the guy at Prestige motorsports who added me to a list of R34GTR's that were going at auction over in Japan. I was seeing v-spec 2002 GTR's going for around 60k Australian and the only ones I can see here in Aus are 100+ for standard '99 models... I just couldn't bring myself to pay more then twice what I know the car is worth.

Nah, I'm not gunna be trading in my Z. I'm going be installing either a supercharger or a twin turbo system soon. I talked to one of the guys from APS (unichip guys) Who are currently testing a 330+k/w package that will put my Z into the 11's :D He invited me down to Melb to come for a drive in around 6 weeks when the testing is finished. Woo hoo.

I will probably hold onto this till some time after the new GTR comes out.

he silverslyder yeah that was me, yeah i made sure i got a car or 2 behind paul, cause i knew he'd be up the front or at least know where to go if we broke up.... nice car by the way buddy, first one i noticed when i got there.

i looked for you again when we stopped and again when we met up later...so i just assumed you got lost or headed off. half of the cars got lost anyway....prolly luckier for you anyway, the cops woulda had a feild day had all of the cars been there.

Thanks for the compliment. Luckily me and my mate brought our walkie talkies which came in handy as he was closer to the front in his maroon 200sx, there the best little things for cruises. We just headed off because everyone went in different directions (didn't think it was that organised) but it wasn't a bad turn out they seemed like a friendly bunch of people.

    • This is what the look like normally. Except we only got the 2 doors locally
    • Back pressure is not really a function of the exhaust itself, but the turbine/housing. So the question/point remains valid. I would be fitting an EMAP tapping point and seeing what is going on in the exhaust manifold before committing to throwing boost at it. Flow. No intercooler is actually rated for continuous operation at any power level wrt temperatures, as they are no actually capable of shifting the required amounts of heat on a continuous basis. They get hot during a pul, then dump some of that heat into the external air (and some back into the internal air) during off load moments/periods). You probaby do need a bigger core, given the power level you're already at is somewhat above the "rating" of the cooler. Put pressure tapping points either side of the core (which possibly you already have, if you have a boost source near the compressor outlet and tapping near the throttle for existing purposes) and report on delta P across the core.   I haven't done the mass flow calculation to see where you would be sitting on the compressor map at the ~450is rwkW level we're talking here, but if you look just at the PR you're running at, which is ~2.8-2.9, then you have a really really wide swath of the compressor map to run in, and so long as you were making between about 45-75 lb/min of flow, you should have really good comp efficiency, with the ideal being betweem 55 and 65. I can't see the need to shift drastically on the map to get better results.
    • Welcome 🙂 The ER34 wheels and slight lowering suit the R33 sedan really well. I'm firmly in the 'keep it stock, at least on the outside' camp.
    • Do this, and we'll have a resource right here.
    • "Hybrid" is a meaningless term. I could not tell you what the vendor of that turbo means by "hybrid".
