The only thing about inside cooking (unless lots of ventilation) is that if onion is wanted I may needs to leave because of stupid allergies.. Not planning on dying this weekend :)

I just came back from a drive out to Tidbinbilla in the R32. The only way out there from the south, is through Tharwa. Wasn't a bad drive, except I found more damage on the R32.

Corin Road is also closed but I didn't get all the way out to the cotter.

I didn't realise that the cruise was on saturday. I have soo many things to goto so I'll probably bring the Silvia and hang around for a while.

So what have we got as our current plan for tomorrow? Are we still meeting for a chat etc at gravalia, then going for a bit of a cruise before a bbq? Not that I'll make the BBQ, but curious to know what the final verdict on all is.

Also Trozzle, hopefully will catch you tomorrow and can grab that manual also. Ta mate.

I went back to the river today. Looked a bit better, still soggy though... If this sun stays out it should be ok to go there still.

The only problem could be the gate at the entry... But somthing magical might happen where the gate somehow gets opened for us

11 am this morning, come on sun!

The suggested cruise route is still OFF.

But the road to the river from western creek is still good as ever... so we'll just meet up at grevillia park then kinda go straight there via commonwealth av then cotter road

:D

Yeah man that's cool. We'll DECIDE by this evening imo. Since it's still looking to be sunny, I reckon we'll be going to the river anyway...would much prefer to be out in the open personally :)

What time we aiming to get to the river? Plus I need a map coz I've honestly never been to this spot before.

I'm keen to get there a little early and start scouting for remotely dry firewood.

You're so shit! We put up fool (ie Troy) proof directions in the other thread... do you read nothing??

Cotter Road --> right at Uriarra Road

The picnic area is Uriarra East, you can't miss it.

and lol @ dry firewood

    • 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?
    • 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).
    • 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).
