Hello everyone.

Just trying to let everyone know that there is a Hi- Tech car show in Rockhampton, central queensland.

We have already found a great accessable spot and a few minor sponsors

The show will be held on the 15th of May 2004. Hopefully we are giving you enough warning!

We are trying to organise a show mainly aimed at Hi-Tech modified car owners. This mainly lends itself towards owners of Imports... however we will also be open to all sorts of interesting vehicles. Including blown EFI commodores, Hi-tech and custom 4x4's and anything of special interest... like a blow through turbo'd carby L18 motor in a Hi-ace van... anything like that... If you come you will see that rocky has some crazy cars like a 4wd turbo patrol with 340hp at the bags

Entry for both Spectators and Entrants will be free. So the only cost is if you aren't a local you will have to find accomodation and get your vehicle here.

As well as the show on Saturday morning, we will be holding a Supercruise around the lovely town of Rocky on Saturday night. Hopefully we will be able to organise a large variety of cars and car owners to come on this cruise so we can make it as fun and exciting as possible.

then incase you thought all the fun was over then. We will be having another cruise to Yeppoon on Sunday morning around 11am. It will be starting from the Northside Plaza carpark and we will meet and greet before heading off to a open highway cruise of about 40 kms before we reach beautiful Yeppoon beachs. There will then be a BYO BBQ at the Bluff before everyone dissappears home after a great weekend of meeting like minded car NuTZ.

Rick and Dan are trying to organise it as much as possible so we can get all the details to everyone ASAP.

For all the out of towners this is a great chance to meet the Rocky locals and see some nices sites while cruising with a heap of cars... sounds fun don't it.

But have no fear about getting lost, etc. There will be a contact Mobile Phone No. given out at the CarShow and you can call for any information any time. If we have enough out-of-towners we will even try to organise some other activities for everyone so you can see the sites and make some new import friends.

For some more info phone DANNY CURRAN on 0416106846

Sound like fun?

So come on guys its always good to see what other parts of this state trends with cars are, some come to rocky on the 15/16th of may and see whats happening in rocky as we are keen as mustard to see whats happening in your neck of the woods!

Yeah. This motorshow is turning out really well.

It's going to be alot more relaxed than some of the other shows around.  

It will be more about friends than prizes... however there will be a few trophies to hand out as well...

Friends... friends... :kick:

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
