Hey guys!

I am organising an Oz day cruise, hopefully will have a large attendance, will be a fun day with games of footy, cricket, and some suprises along the way, also an Aussie Sausage sambo BBQ will be put on, along with drinks etc. Please note, it would be preferred if you brought along gold coins to go towards the costs of the food/drinks (this will not be checked, but i trust that most people are decent enough to do this for the volunteers who paid for it)

We will be meeting at the super Amart Carpark in springwood across from McDonalds, this is large enough to fit plenty of cars and is close to the highway/main roads so isnt hard to find.

We will be meeting at 9AM, and leaving by 10AM

From there we will be heading out and over to waterworks road, making a stop at the BP on waterworks road for any northsiders who dont want to go to Springwood to meet with us, and to allow us to regroup before the final drive.

Then we will head over Mt Nebo, and down through the valley for a nice drive into Sommerset dam, where will we hold the bbq, footy etc...

This will be a good drive, a good day and a good chance to meet new people, and catch up with others.

I do not encourage anyone to be a racecar driver during the drive, keep it relaxed and sensible, all the usual (no skids, burnouts, dangerous driving etc...)

This is posted on various forums so will hopefully be a vaery large turnout.

Cheers!!!

Tim :rant:

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      You know how your car rolled through a fence in your last jacking escapade? Scissor jacks increase the likely hood of that sort of thing happening immensely!

      http://calfinn.com.au/product/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c   I have this and fits under a S3 33 GTR with no issues. Purchased in 2009 and not one issue. It was $950 back then. Not cheap but something so important isn’t worth cheaping out on.

      Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?

      Intro/R33 owner

      By f00stx · Posted

      Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).

      Second time Skyline owner (R33 GTS-T and now a V36 370GT)

      Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
