yeah just a normal 1jz not a VVTI

look forward to attending a few events this year,

We were following a silver stock looking R33 4 door with a cannon exhaust this morning going past narangba station,

we were in a white navara with yellow light on the roof so you probably never noticed us

I think it turned down torrens road at petrie

Hey you Northfolk, As of last night we now have a new executive to steer the club over the next 12 months.

We are planing a major upturn in events ans would like as many of you as possible to join in the fun.

We will be doing 4 major cruises a year and one of these will be in your direction. The club would like to hook up with you guys and then move on to the sunny coast and do the same with the skyline fraternity there.

Our first major cruise will be a western swing taking in the flood hit araeas between brisbane and toowoomba where we hope to hook up with as many liners as we can.

The northern loop will be the next mjor cruise after that.

Let us know if you are interested and keen in becoming more involved with an active club.

Cheers, your new pres.

:thumbsup: for sure

Let me know when your open for business. my dash is doing some odd shit at the moment, I either need a auto sparky or a exorcist.

Will do for sure mate. As soon as I know, which I should know next week, i'll let you know.

Cheers guys for the support. Hope I get to work on some/all of your cars, as i would like to make this business the go to place in Morayfield and beyond.

116 any chances of a house visit. I have a 300zx that has no spark and the last guy did the dodgyest job of wiring i have ever seen. PM me if you can with your hourly rate and we can set up a time.

Keep an eye on the events section peeps. Fun times posted up and more to come.

When I had my 33 I used to attend Club cruises but being on the northside we always had to drive a fair way to get in on the fun. The effort to include north liners will not go unnoticed or unappreciated

well I'll kick it off then:

every thursday night at Carsedline central - we have a northside meet. start at 730-8pm till when ever. there are coffee shops/nandos/pizza capers and all are willing to kick in a bit if the meet gets off the ground.

I'll be there at pizza capers this thurs at 730-8pm to start it.

do we have takers?

im in...but where the hell is carseldine central?? carseldine sounds good to me. easy to get to. and all highway!!

*never mind...found it..lol will be there i recon.

Edited by boiracer

its on the corner of Beams Road and Gympie Road

heading out bound its on the left

inbound its on the right

it is at the last set of traffic lights before the Bruce Highway starts

if your retarded the 1st exit isnt far up the road so a U turn is easy

Maybe able to swing out and have a looky. Not a bad spot. Plenty of parking up and underground.

As for the Harry's meets, the cops aren't as bad as they were. Been their plenty of times and they are a good bunch of guys. Last time I was their a 32 rocked up with straight through exhaust, 1 headlight working and slamed on it's nuts. A copper a guided him into the park and said nice ride. I kid you not. I spoke to him about there presents there and he basically said they were just to keep things under control and stop the dickheads. You still get some dickheads, but thats most places you go. You'd be very suprised how they turn a blind eye to the cars that rock up their. Another one, this guy had a Merc pretty much on bump stops and the copper goes, didn't you have another 1 the other week or was that someone else. Couldn't belive what I heard.

The coppers down there from what I hear are pretty good, However they did turn up just after we left because people forgot how to use a sidewalk and also how to exit a driveway without leaving rubber flavored momento's behind

    • Update 3: Hi all It's been a while. Quite a lot of things happened in the meantime, among other things the car is (almost) back together and ready to be started again. Things that I fixed or changed: Full turbo removal, fitting back the OEM turbo oil hardlines. Had to do quite a bit of research and parts shopping to get every last piece that I need and make it work with the GT2860 turbos, but it does work and is not hard to do. Proves that the previous owner(s) just did not want to. While I was there I set the preload for the wastegates to 0,9bar to hopefully make it easier for the tuner to hit the 370hp I need for the legal inspections that will follow later on. Boost can always go up if necessary. Fitted a AN10 line from the catch can to the intake hose to make the catchcan and hopefully the cam covers a slight vacuum to have less restrictive oil returns from the head and not have mud build up as harshly in the lines and catch can. Removed the entire front interior just shy of the dashboard itself to clean up some of the absolutely horrendous wiring, (hopefully) fix the bumpy tacho and put in LED bulbs while I was there. Also put in bulbs where there was none before, like the airbag one. I also used that chance to remove the LED rpm gauge on the steering column, which was also wired in absolute horror show fashion. Moved the 4in1 Prosport gauge from sitting in front of the OEM oil pressure gauge to the center console vents, I used a 3D printed vent piece to hold that gauge there. The HKB steering wheel boss was likely on incorrectly as I sometimes noticed the indicator reset being uneven for left vs. right. In the meantime also installed an airbag delete resistor, as one should. Installed Cube Speed premium short shifter. Feels pretty nice, hope it'll work great too when I actually get to drive. Also put on a fancy Dragon Ball shift knob, cause why not. My buddy was kind enough to weld the rust hole in the back, it was basically rusted through in the lowermost corner of the passenger side trunk area where the wheel arch, trunk panel and rear quarter all meet. Obviously there is still a lot of crustiness in various areas but as long as it's not rusted out I'll just treat and isolate the corrosion and pretend it's not there. Also had to put down a new ground wire for the rear subframe as the original one was BARELY there. Probably a bit controversial depending on who you ask about this... but I ended up just covering the crack in the side of the engine block, the one above the oil feed, with JB Weld. I used a generous amount and roughed up the whole area with a Dremel before, so I hope this will hold the coolant where it should be for the foreseeable future. Did a cam cover gasket job as the half moons were a bit leaky, and there too one could see the people who worked on this car before me were absolute tools. The same half moons were probably used like 3 times without even cleaning the old RTV off. Dremeled out the inside of the flange where the turbine housing mates onto the exhaust manifolds so the diameter matches, as the OEM exhaust manifolds are even narrower than the turbine housings as we all know. Even if this doesn't do much, I had them out anyways, so can't harm. Ideally one would port-match both the turbo and the manifold to the gasket size but I really didn't feel up to disassembling the turbine housings. Wrapped turbo outlet dumps in heat wrap band. Will do the frontpipe again as well as now the oil leak which promted me to tear apart half the engine in the first place is hopefully fixed. Fitted an ATI super damper to get rid of the worn old harmonic balancer. Surely one of the easiest and most worth to do mods. But torquing that ARP bolt to spec was a bitch without being able to lock the flywheel. Did some minor adjustments in the ECU tables to change some things I didn't like, like the launch control that was ALWAYS active. Treated rusty spots and surface corrosion on places I could get to and on many spots under the car, not pretty or ideal but good enough for now. Removed the N1 rear spats and the carbon surrounding for the tailpipe to put them back on with new adhesive as the old one was lifting in many spots, not pretty. Took out the passenger rear lamp housing... what do you know. Amateur work screwed me again here as they were glued in hard and removing it took a lot of force, so I broke one of the housing bolts off. And when removing the adhesive from the chassis the paint came right off too. Thankfully all the damaged area won't be visible later, but whoever did the very limited bodywork on this car needs to have their limbs chopped off piece by piece.   Quite a list if I do say so myself, but a lot of time was spent just discovering new shit that is wrong with the car and finding a solution or parts to fix it. My last problem that I now have the headache of dealing with is that the exhaust studs on the turbo outlets are M10x1.25 threaded, but the previous owner already put on regular M10 nuts so the threads are... weird. I only found this out the hard way. So now I will just try if I can in any way fit the front pipe regardless, if not I'll have to redo the studs with the turbos installed. Lesson learned for the future: Redo ALL studs you put your hands on, especially if they are old and the previous owners were inept maniacs. Thanks for reading if you did, will update when the engine runs again. Hope nothing breaks or leaks and I can do a test drive.
    • No those pads are DBA too  but they have colors too. I look at the and imo the green "street" are the best.
    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
