Hey guy's, my name is Michael. I've just moved back to Toowoomba. Once a week I go and wash my car at carlovers. Also I just moved from living at the bottom of Mt Tamborine. I used to love going for a drive up the mountain and down through the hinterlands with other cars. If you guys can show me a good run, something similar, I'd be much alibied.

Hope to see you guys on the road. My car is easy to spot. Number plate is B FUN.

Hey man, welcome. Tamborine and the GC hinterland is a sweet drive, we really should go for a cruise up there one day. As Nick mentioned we do have a nice windy local route we frequent but nowhere near as good as tambo/mt glorious. Will have to meet up soon.

Possible to just do a hardpark somewhere so I can tag along and catch up + get updates on everybody's car? :P

I would go down that road with you guys but my tyres aren't up to the job. Was pretty scary the last time...even Nick '33' was leaving me behind!

Either that, or you guys can really drive.

Oh and I have been rather busy but I've been itching to catch up with you fellas :wub:

Hey guys :) I have worn out one of my rear tires. I'm going to replace both but the Bridgestone I went to wanted to charge me $620 a tire. I'm looking on eBay and I can get a set of Kumho's for $399 plus deliver and such. Just wondering what you guys do.

My rear tire size is 265/35 18 97YXL

What's your problem tommie? Did I say where I would be doing said drifting? I'm 28 years old and know that you would have to be retarted to speed through public streets.

I'm new to Toowoomba and would like to make some friends on here, hopefully maybe yourself as well. But I would ask you would think twice before talking to me like that again, unless I do go and say some stupid shit!

Ask adult/sensible question man and I'm sure we will get along.

Tom is a good guy, just really paranoid about the police, they have given him plenty of trouble over the years so he does have a good reason to be paranoid. But anyway welcome.

Yes a meet up defiantly overdue. Maybe everyone would be keen for a meet up and bit of a drive next weekend?

Who's going?

Test & Tune

HFM Toowoomba.

It's only for sound not power :( but they say there will be show cars and you can have a great laugh at all the shitboxes that pull up with more expensive stereo systems than cars.

When: 30th June 9am - 2pm

Where: 17 Cowen Street Toowoomba

Tomorrow eh. Could be interesting enough for a putt past, dunno if the 5 oh will be around? (run, Tom!)

lol who needs to worry about the 5 oh...... Not me that's for sure.

Maybe we could do a hard park next weekend then. We are well overdue for drinks.

Also there might be a pub run happening on Sunday if the weather is good. Anyone keen?

chris, im thiiiiiiinking about registering my car again soon, i even pulled it out from under the car cover where its been for 8 months and reversed it out of the shed and got it hot!!

if i get it going again im keen to get some pics of ours together if you wanna

but i probably wont be going on cruises and meets and the like with how paranoid i am though..... maybe go to a real good one i dunno yet... too paranoid :S

If you do get it going again, I am most defiantly keen for photos. Mine has been similar to your's this year, it has spent most of the year locked away in the shed on a trickel charger. I mean it has done a tad over 400km's this year so not quite the 100km's you have done in your's over the past couple of year. I am way to paranoid about someone seeing it and trying to steal it ( which would need to be done on the back of a tow truck with all the security work myself and Chris Rogers has done on it) and also one of Toowoomba's many ''fantastic'' drivers running into my car.

The truth is that I actually don't have much to hide at all. The 5-oh would get bored with my car and there're much bigger fish to fry here in woomba.

I simply don't LIKE cops. I don't want to see them. I don't want them harassing me and touching my car. Simply put, I am disgusted by the cops in this country and I try to avoid confrontations with them. The cops around here have done a very great job at ruining one of the very few things that young guys can do in this f*khole of a town.

    • Its also worth mentioning that 30 years after it left the factory and god knows how many missed oil changes since, there is every possibility that one or more lifters are ticking because they are sticky/gummed up. To resolve that you need to pull the cams then pull each lifter, disassemble, clean, reassemble, soak in oil and re-install, and they should come up good as new.
    • What air filter are you running? Is it a panel filter in the stock air box, or a pod filter? Is the air filter the type that is oiled?   If you unplug the IACV, what rpm does the engine idle at?
    • Reading through the engine service manual their advice is do a cylinder balance test. Unplug one injector at a time and see if the idle drops a consistent RPM. You can also do this using a Consult cable which is easier. They also call for unplugging the power transistor, then with the engine off and the fuel rail unhooked from the manifold verifying that you have good fuel flow (even injection, no dripping/leaks, etc) when you twist the CAS by hand. Also verify the spark by pulling the spark plugs and allowing the plugs to ground and turning the CAS by hand. I would also start doing the sensor checks and idle valve checks in service manual. Make sure the MAF tests reasonably, the intake air regulator is sane, etc. You may have to get new spark plugs.
    • This sounds very old of me, however since buying the Tiguan shit box, my view on shit boxes have changed.
    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
