Hey All,

Myself and a few mates are taking my car down to Gavin Woods on the 5th for a tune and afterwards are planning to head to Aspley Maccas as I know it is usually not to bad. Quick question does anything else exciting happen on a thurs night down there and how many people from the forums go there?

Aspley maccas is getting huge again, but doubt, like anything it will get locked down by the cops one of these days.

Roma Street is always good on a thursday night. We normally get to roma street around 8:30ish to get a good park and then watch all the nice cars drive past. It normally really packs out about 9:30 and as their aren't many parks, there are heaps of traffic jams. But the busy times are from about 9:30 onwards.

Yea it seems to be a huge problem lately the cops are really tightening down on "car meets" its annoying because the people who just want to stop and talk can't do it without getting stuck with the cops going through your car and usually finding a "defect" somewhere! Excuse my lack of knoweledge of brissy but where in roma street do you park? I know vaugely where it is but lol where to park would be a mystery to me!

Theres two enterances into Roma Street. One off Roma Street just past the Transit centre (near the construction site for the new courts) you go in and theres a round about or theirs another entrance at the top of the parklands (I think it's Gregory Terrace) I'd go this way if you have a lowered car. The speed bumps in roma street like ripping exhausts off.

Aspley maccas is packed. You drive in there and there isn't one carpark available. Last time we went out there, I didn't even attempt to drive in. There isn't just bogans there.

To me, aspley will always have a bad reputation. Everytime we went there about 6 months ago, their were fights with knives and guns.. SO we stopped going their.

hmm yea i dont like the brissy speed humps in carparks i can see the supredrager getting detached from my car! Might have to check out Aspley and Roma street, although guns and knives dont really seem like a place to be...it might be a good thing the cops will be there :D

Personally I wouldnt this week. Last week new sercurity guard was there, didnt let anyone park in the main carpark, this then annoyed the now slight 'bogan' factor (seems bogans found turbos hey...) and they started to do skids, chirps etc, so at a guess Id say the cops are gona rock up there soon anyway. But yeah, if they dont its really good, could have just been the other guy was on holidays or something.

LOL whatever Erin, I dunno about all that hey... Maybe some rumors or something...

I am down there not this week but the week after anyway. Being from noosa a simple drive around down there is more interesting than our entire night...so I will hopefully see some decent cars and be able to congregate somewhere without being kept there for hours so a cop can inspect my car!

Rumours?? what are you talking about rumours...

We were sitting in the hypermarket watching the fight and listening to the cops talk about it over the scanner...

hahha..

cops will start to crack down.. in sydney and melbourne they've had cops and security guards for years now.. its something you guys have got to get used to i think.

Hanging around maccas is kinda lame though.. i mean its such a shit place, and its so open and crap and u usally get a whole heap of muzzas.. plenty of better places to meet.

    • Yeah I've had too many issues with knock off's on the BMW's. I don't want to do a job twice or more because the parts are shit.
    • I read this and thought "ah! I will do this scissor jack on the tow point thing!" I just use my floor/low profile/costco jack and lift the car up by the tow hook itself, then slide jack stands under. Never thought about using scissor into floor jack combo :p
    • Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!    
    • So, I'm back with bad news. There's no jack long enough on this planet that will reach the front subframe. If by some chance there is, it would weigh 200lb's.  I purchased a long reach jack... The damn thing weighted 120lb's and was massive. Didn't even come close, was still short at least a foot. It was a pain, but I brought it back. Next I decided HA! No problem, I'll get an Extra long reach jack. Well, I couldn't lift the box... It must have weighed 160LB's and luckily there was an open box in store. I took measurement and was still nowhere close.  Sadly I've lost hope and have accepted defeat. 
    • Thanks for that tip, niZmO_Man. I think the battery is OK. It's quite a new one, but I'll check. Last time I needed a new battery, everything electronic was fine, except that there wasn't enough current to turn over the starter. I decided to order one of the partial AV system translation CDs from Car Audio Workshop in NZ. That might have some effect, or help me diagnose the date problem. 🤞
