Hi guys and girls

I'm flying up to Brisbane on Wed and staying for a few days in an apartment near the city (Melbourne st -westend I think) and thought it would be a chance to put faces to some of the names I regularly see here on the forums.

Looks like there is no organised cruise this weekend but I was wondering if you (or other imports) meet informally at any local spots (that are easy for rubber necked visitors to find)

I don’t know if I will have Internet access at the apartments, (so it may not be worth replying later in the week - I'll logon if I can though), but I just thought it would be good to see what goes on in the land of the banana benders.

Harry's Diner (northside) is supposed to be very good, not exactly sure which nights.

Macca's carpark Milton is good Friday nights.

Broadwater carpark (gold coast) on Saturday nights - after 10pm :D

Or alternatively, go to Roma Street on a Thursday night and sit there and wait for the many cars/groups to come in and leave. I personally won't be out on thursday night and probably not till late on saturday night (family engagements) if at all. Otherwise I would have tried to organise a cruise :|

Thanks for the quick responces.

Looks like i'll have to visit milton maccs on Thursday night.

What time do things kick off? no use getting there 2 early coz I'll only end up eating too much (can a stomach be considered excess luggage when flying?) I'd rather go home with a few new bits for the car.

predator you have no excuse, i was late for a cruise once i put my dash back in in a bp carpark while i was waitin for people to show up.

well... it might take slightly more time to get this back together :P

but its still driveable - i just have to whack that support bar back in. Speedo, etc is gonna have to sit there resting behind the steering wheel. Ghetto mods at its best.. hehe

    • Ok so will run the piping over that radiator and no plenum it is. Put that money towards a Haltech and see what suits. Any ideas something like an elite 2000 or 2500 right? My long term goal is 300kw e85 and manual swap and that’s a dream come true. For now will be 200kw and auto the stock rb25det neo intake isn’t too expensive with throttle body. If I was to have the port matching done, Would that be better than the stock de intake as the det has bigger holes plus has the spots for sensors etc? And suit more long term?  appreciate the advice?   
    • You understand AFR is not the only thing that contributes to it pinging yeah? Funnily, what the AFR gauge will tell you when it likely is pinging, is going to make you think things are really safe and good.
    • Run the piping how we all have for decades. Also the duel runners with the +T setup dramatically helps it gets on boost quicker. Yes, chase huge power it'll become a problem, but you're a long way off when you're already saying an aftermarket ECU is out of the budget. You also say NisTune as it's simple, and then immediately say it'll be painful, meaning... It won't be simple. It will likely cost you a lot more stuffing around with a Nistune, than just putting a Haltech or similar in.
    • I’ll order an afr gauge to keep an eye on it.  Then will get a haltech soon 
    • TD05 or maybe pulsar PSR2867r Gen 2?  id love a garret but it’s quite out the budget for now and I’m not chasing crazy power.    yeh fuel pump haven’t looked into but whatever works, kind of last on my list.    Nistune because it’s simple but Ik it’s a lot of pain especially as I’m auto +t with the whole seperate TCM etc still investigating that. Haltech id love but once budget tight for now atleast.    finally the reason I’m trying for a plenum instead of the stock intake is I already have a standard Intercooler mounted etc. so the ports are on both sides so trying to not have to go over the clutch fan radiator etc. trying to find a good deal return flow if I don’t than this will do for now I guess. btw any ideas with that, apparently some people have to cut blades to reduce it from hitting the Intercooler piping over the radiator ? Thanks
