It's not looking good here at Underwood. Got this warning SMS earlier today.

QLD Severe T'Storm: Large Hail, Damaging Winds. All of Southeast Coast and Wide Bay districts at risk next few hours AND AGAIN this afternoon. www.ewn.com.au

Hi mate, the storm just hit as soon as we entered the freeway. If sky turned dark like 1 - 2 hours earlier, I could have postpone the cruise. :(

Anyway, nothing bad happened on our way and back so we were lucky. We hid it out at Pacific Fair under cover shopping centre car park until 5pm and head back to Brisbane.

just 4 of us turned up....but it was good with the small crowd as we got to know each other better and some fun driving on the motorway.....cheez sheldon your exhaust is loud....thumbsup.gif.....thanks victor....hopefully next time it would be nice for forum users to put up post if they cant make it to the meet....

Hey Shiva, you are welcome. I learnt my leasson in that weather in QLD is so unpredictable. Next time, we will definitely have to postpone it if weather acts funny.

Lucky nothing bad happened to us on the road and reached Pacific Fair under cover car park safely. But it was good on our way back and had abit of fun. :)

Hi Leon, sorry I thought you wouldn't come if the weather turn bad.

I told you us Stagea drivers aren't afraid of a bit of rain :happy:. Actually it was very heavy on the way there, with plenty of cars stopped under bridges, but we soldiered on. I had the family with me so we just watched a DVD while we waited, as well as the lightning over the ocean at Currumbin. It's a nice spot there, I'm sorry you guys missed it.

Next time I might get a mobile phone number of someone....

as leon said, we must get the phone number of the organiser of the cruise so it makes it easy for communication......sorry leon on behalf of everyone......

It's all good. Next time it will work out :thumbsup: . So, did anyone take a picture of the 4 cars at Pacific Fair, or did that seem a bit lame, lol?

Hey mate, we would have loved to have you came for the cruise, but weather wasn't good so it wasn't the best day out.

Hopefully, weather is good next time and have more owners join in. :)

    • Ok I get you. But isn’t the butterfly intake a headache with the +T?  see this is my plan so far but please advise me into the right direction.  Nistune Ecu, 1000cc Bosch injectors, TD05 or TD06 Kinugawa turbo using stock rb25det exhuast manifold, walbro fuel pump unsure of model I think it’s 450/460, spitfire coils and sparks to suit and a R35 MAF sensor and boost sensor.    I was thinking maybe do a cheap eBay plenum $400-500 or try find a stock det neo intake. I think I’d port match it so it’s getting the full capacity but open to advice please.  Thanks 
    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
