I'm cruising into brisy tonight after work and am staying at a mates just south of slacks creek. If a group of skylines are gonna hook up before the cruise-for-cure then I'd love to add an r32 to the group. My moby is 0419 170 574.

Cheers,

Blake

choas, got your pm - I'll let you know later tonight (in a couple of hours, when my mate arrives), but it's looking good at this stage, woohoo :thumbsup:

Zoix, not having much luck eh? I know a really good mobile auto electrician on the Northside if you're interested.

revhead, its the blower fan and I know that, but its a **** to rip the dash apart to get in there. its either a small motor, a fuse or the fan is ****ed. Then again a cable could have come undone. The air cond works and doesnt need regasesing, its just the fan thats stopped.

Does this "Guy" u know, worked on skylines in the past?

What time will I be able to get them to look at my car?

does he have a shop or just mobile?

I got my door fixed and my timer :thumbsup: so at least I can have the windows down again.

Zoix - his name's Chris Rogers, he posts on here from time to time and is a regular on Performance Forums. He runs a mobile business called "Sound Off Mobile Installations", and he's based at Wavell Heights. He's done plenty of work on my R33 and a mate's R32, has no doubt done plenty of other guys' cars that I don't know, and used to work at Strathfield before branching out on his own, so yes, he's done BUCKETLOADS of Skylines, along with Porkas and other exotica :thumbsup: He's on 0407 102 839 - tell him I (Marc) sent you and he'll look after you. Dunno what his schedule's like, call him and see if he can squeeze you in. I've gotta speak to him sometime over the weekend anyway to help organise his wedding, I'll mention it to him then.

chaos - shit I hadn't realised it was tomorrow either. Ah well, should still be there :D PM me your mobile number or and/or address and I'll contact you tomorrow.

Note though - I unfortunately have things to do in the afternoon, so I'll be going as far as Somerset and then heading back, ie won't be doing the Kilcoy/Samford etc leg.

haha wonder how many people didnt realise it was tomorrow.

i'll pm you my number but i think im goin with zoix not sure yet cause hes just gone out cruising but if your not planning on goin to bed soon i'll sms u later tonight or tomorrow morning before the time we meant to meet whatever time that is.

paddington so thats like west/south lol inner west it is

im confuzzled bout tomorrow now cause i thought zoix was talking bout this cruise tomorrow but it seems hes on about a sunday one. but yeh im going with who ever can pick me up and drop me off :thumbsup: cause my line is still a few months off now

Only two of us ended up going - myself (duh) and blakey. Mud also made an appearance at Harry's, so he's excused too. So the whole time there were two cars flying the SAU flag amid a sea of Commodores. One of the guys wearing an LS1 shirt came over and said to Chaos (who was in my passenger seat) 'most of the Commodores have spare seats, so if you want a ride in a V8 instead of a ricer for a change, just ask em'. The cheeky bastard, lol :D

I did get one good comment going up the mountain though, from a guy in an SS - 'Geez mate, I just couldn't keep up with you back there!'. Chaos can no doubt bear witness to how 'hard' I was trying... looks like 250+kW just isn't enough to help nearly two tonnes of metal up the hill and around the corners :) But seriously the Commies did pretty well considering that most looked nearly stock, and there were some very nice examples.

The only pics I have are of someone who went for a steep downhill excursion - and I won't be posting those unless I get the owner's OK. Blakey's passengers got a few good shots of the rest of the day I think, maybe wait until he gets on here and see what shows up. Either that, or look on the LS1 forums.

All in all it was quite a good day, the Leukemia Foundation reps no doubt raised more than a few dollars in the process, and there was a bit of friendly ribbing between us and the Holden guys to keep things interesting... and, as you can probably tell, I'm still in the mood :D

good to haer, i jsut went and got cough syrup and some pills the lady said i should take soon, so as soon as I paid i drink from the bottle and took two tablets, she looked so amazed :D

I said "Hmm Much better, thanks!" and walked out to everyone giving me strange looks. Was going to buy a washing machine but I think tyres are needed before that.

Anyone know a great set of tyres for 18"? I'm looking towards hard compound as they last longer and dont smoke up :)

    • Ok I get you. But isn’t the butterfly intake a headache with the +T?  see this is my plan so far but please advise me into the right direction.  Nistune Ecu, 1000cc Bosch injectors, TD05 or TD06 Kinugawa turbo using stock rb25det exhuast manifold, walbro fuel pump unsure of model I think it’s 450/460, spitfire coils and sparks to suit and a R35 MAF sensor and boost sensor.    I was thinking maybe do a cheap eBay plenum $400-500 or try find a stock det neo intake. I think I’d port match it so it’s getting the full capacity but open to advice please.  Thanks 
    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
