what about sat day(cruz) or night(movie)

Sat day cruise would be ok but I work every second sat night so might make it a bit difficult for me

I'll see what i get out of the call I make on monday

yeah will be keen as for a cruise seems missed last one due to failing coil packs :rant: hope fully should have tune all sorted out by then having boost drop and compresor surge probs atm so cant wind the it up but made 203rwkw on 11 psi so far cant wait for 18-19 he he :thumbsup:

I'd be interested in the drive in idea :thumbsup: ... but anything will do. :)

yeah, the last weekend is the sausa dyno day, so that's my saturday gone, and quite alot of fuel too!!!

You chucking your Stagea on the rollers too? Any idea what you'll make? I'm heading back to the tuners soon, now that I've fixed my boost leak. :D

I'll grab them sway bars off you one day soon too :P

Ok so I finally got on to the people at mainline drive in and it looks like i've left things a bit late....

The guy told me that ff5 finishes on the 11th of May and is playing everyday at 10:30 accept on the 7th of May when it's on at 8-8:30 (he thinks)

Thats pretty much stuffed me cause the only nights i got free before it finishes is the 29th and the 6th!

So any takers on one of those days? If more than a couple of people want to come then we might try a bit of a cruise beforehand. If theres more than 10 cars I'll make a booking and we'll get a discount.

Other than that I will be organising a Barossa cruise for either the 13th,14th,21st or 22nd preferably not the 22nd.

Might start a poll for that one.

:thumbsup:

so what did ya make at the wheels with ya boost leak roo i saw some where 240?? is yours manual or auto? what ya hopping for in the end

Shame. And I mean that in the nicest possible way :P

Do we have to do drive in and cruise on the same day? Or can we do a Friday night drive in thing then cruise on a Saturday, not necessarily the next day?

Do you know what frequency the audio for the drive in is these days?

I haven't got a band expander yet. No point in going if I can't hear the audio...

Not sure on the frequency mate

I'll check the shed for the expander i took out of my stag, you can have that if you want, or is the problem that you can't be arsed putting one in :whistling:

Haha a little of both... Car has turned up from Japan with a mini disc player, so I can't be arsed pulling the dash apart more than once. Want to do stereo, TV etc all at once. I'll call them tomorrow and see. I think I have an FM modulator here that I could use with my phone...

    • 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/
