I think I speak for all ACT SAU when I say we sincerely appreciate your huge effort in organisng this event. :thumbsup:

You have provided the opportunity and what happens next is up to the individuals.

There are very few on here, including me, that organise and make events happen in the ACT - so thanks heaps.

If by chance peeps dont enjoy themselfs then it will be on them.

I for one wont listen to any bitching.

See you all tomorrow and dont forget to bring a chair or two.

:thanks: Ross, Cejay and all others who have been involved in helping.

What a Great Event!! A HUGE THANKS :thanks: and CONGRATS to all those from all sides who organised and sponsored todays event. I was very glad and surprised to see that all 30 spots were filled. Not only that, but 28 of the 30 vehicles were both of Nissan's and Toyota's with only 2 other 'outsiders' competing :whistling: Was also a fairly even spread of numbers between the 2 makes. Although I left halfway through the day, I'm guessing the rest of the day went off without a hitch? No mechanical failures? Can't wait to see the full list of dyno results and prize winners...

Based on only seeing the 1st half of the day, this would be a fantastic anual event. I don't mean randomly having one whenever someone can be bothered organising it, I mean to make it an 'official event' held in the same month every year. I know this means that dedication will be required by a few people every year to organise it, but going on how sucessfull todays event was, it would be well worth it. It also shouldn't fall to the same people every year to organise it, unless they are happy too of course. I'll put my hand up already to help out for next year if it happens again...

You know you've done something right when a Ford owner by choice is this keen about a JDM event!!!

The boys at ESP did a great job with the Dyno, Celica guys did well on the snags/drinks at an awesome price and are a good crew.

Kat not only did well singing us in but her GTR had very good figures and more to come.

Pesonally I thought Toyota's and Nissan's were impressive accross the board. Some very nice cars showed up.

son of rajab Vader bought the averages down :( but the crowd cheered heartedly when it just topped over the 100 killer wasps on the final run :D

Well organised & well run.

:thanks:

I would be more than happy to help again this time next year :)

So im still not quite defrosted after today haha.

Thanks to everyone who was involved in organizing the day, ESP for their services and the celica guys for the bbq!

Was stoked with how my car went, got 40kw more than i expected lol. (was the black r32 that wanted to stall on the dyno)

Will definately be at the next one!

Thanks to everyone that turned up today to make it such a good day. I have to say thanks to Kat and Nathan for making the day run so smooth.

I'm now off to straighten my back out and hopefully watch Webber win an F1 race this year...

Thanks again and catch you all at the next outing, motorkhana, Temora, WSID ?? maybe in that order... ;)

Hey guys,

Thanks for organising a great day. This is very different from your usual Sydney Dyno days. Nice small and cosy lol.....too damn cold but.

Thanks for letting me be the 31st man (My fault for coming late!) but it was good to meet some new people.

Happy to say this....well done to the Toyotas for winning the event hehe.

Thanks for making the effort to come down! Your car looked and sounded awesome!! :)

I nudge closer and closer every year, will just say at least I drove home on the boost I ran on the rollers and I'll let the 1/4 mile results do the rest of the talking :nyaanyaa:

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
