get that all the time, if they a satchel not a parcel post then the drivers do not drop them off.

and if the guys on the bike do not have enough storage then they just card it.

what really bugs me however is I have a 50/50 chance of which post office, one a pain to get to/park one good.

Hahaha yeah had that all too often, bloody Aus Post.

Never have problems with any courier services though, always knock - hell some of them even gimme a buzz 15mins prior (when I ask)... That's service

Booooo, Odie is still sick... didn't complete the E85 tune. Think the intake manifold is warped, its leaking out the inside edge of the middle gasket between 5 and 6...

I'm thinking it's time for a Plazmaman FFP and a GTR intercooler. Do it right...

How the f**k is E10 98 cents a litre and E85 is 101.9 if the ethanol content in E10 is what makes it cheaper than unleaded

Slowly starting to hate United

going back to the convo we had a few weeks ago..

I think the reason you said was that the market dictates the price....your the market...buy it.

my order from dan's

the courier sms me the night b4 (on australia day) saying he would be there at 10am following day if that worked for me

how good is that!

Mohsen has no insurance.

Not even surprised .

Jesus.... driving around in an $80,000 car (cost, not value) without insurance is a recipe for disaster...

as is owning an $80,000 car (cost, not value)

Cause now the cheapest part of it is the Petrol, not the Ethanol? :P

Edit, clearly wrong, cause that'd make E10 more expensive than 91 in that case.

Yeah it does

I might be wrong but I think Grant possibly did a swap one day? to clear driveways easier or something?

I wouldn't be surprised if my brother has spent 40k or so on his 33gtst (if you include defects and fines etc), and it doesn't even run atm lol

It's why I sold my 33R was spending too much on it every pay day, at the end of the day was still only worth 20k. Never ending pit of money! I had no control heh.

Edit: at least I had insurance *cough momo*

Edited by UNR33L

I don't even want to know what it's cost me over the past 5 years... if I put my fingers in my ears and hum really loudly, I might be able to pay for a few extra little bits and pieces to get it going again.

All I know is, it's progressed into a real pig to drive, but I love it every time I drive it (especially now that I don't drive it every day)

    • 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/
