Also is the guy in the silver Stagea&Evo on here? Think we lost you at the first meet point :(

Yeah mate, that's me with the Stagea & Evo...... did the boots as I noticed a few dangerous manoeuvres with the whole fleet slamming their anchors on in a 100 zone and a few tailgaters in the fleet....

I'll be at the next one for sure...

Yeah both he same owner. He said he left to come back with a more appropiate car. Must like silver cars :D

Silver is easy maintenance, looks good from far but far from good! when dirty!

The Evo is silver, the Stagea is Champagne.

Good turn out at Bunnings, looking forward to next cruise.

Hmmmm....descisions on which car to bring. I think if the NUR's turn up, it is only appropriate to bring the Evo.

well then i have nfi what it was.. but if its not a skyline/nissan/similar i dont pay much attn lol

Ohhhh C'mon! Don't be racist! You gotta hate everyone equally!

I still love my Nissan's, especially Skylines BUT sometimes you just have to try something different!

Why hello there :action-smiley-069:

I guess things were a bit slow and stop starting because I told the lead car to go slow until the traffic cleared up a bit. After the 1st meet point at a petrol station, there was no more traffic lights so we no longer had any problems.

I just didn't want to lose anybody on the cruise so early on. But for as for the dangerous moves and tailgaters, I didn’t notice that because I was at the back of the pack, but hope no one was being too silly :(

Tony, maybe should have told us all just to meet at the petrol station so we don't have to stop at Thompson Rd exit. And cause all this pulling over all over the freeway.

Confused the hell out of me a bit. Would be easier just to go through.

Not saying it's shit, just something to keep in mind for future.

Yeah, we were planning to stop off at Baxster but wasn't sure where yet. Just that other cars were planning to meet us half way :/

Don't worry the next one will be better planned. I've learnt a few things from the other night!

Oh well, once the pitstop was over at the petrol station I'm sure everyone had a blast :)

It is hard to organise with multiple sets of light in between where people can get stuck.

But more visual direction would help next time.

Bunnings meet point, springvale and chelt rd

United Servo second meet point, moorooduc hwy after the KFC/Subway

etc etc but considering everything went down real well.

So did we find out who that Blue Commodore wagon was that was tailing us from bunnings carpark to the servo (and stopped outside it until we all left)?

Some nuffy that envys the imports but hasn't found the brains to go out and get one......

    • Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
    • Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).
    • Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
    • Perhaps the answer is... more jacks!* *proper jacks must be used.  
    • I NEVER think about using a scissor jack unless there is absolutely no other alternative. f**king things are dangerous, annoying and stupid.
