Thought i would start up a thread as my other one was abit off topic and this is for general stuff...

Post here any local interest, anything relative to newcastle and surronding areas etc.

Any potential cruise or meets, introduce your self, post up reminders for meets etc.. whatever you want. any other ideas, post it!

Thought it would be a good idea to base some networking for locals, and start getting a strong scene happening.

Cheers,

Anthony

I've got some cruises in mind but I'm not sharing just in case you Kent's decide to go without me :P hahaha..... Either that or I'll share and call shotgun!

But yes, PUB was on the agenda!!

im waitn for u matt and the rain to piss off so we can do an old pac run

Looking forward to it, my hands are tied until

The car comes back... I was hoping for

It 2 weeks ago, but trying to be patient ;)

A few ideas for routes I have are

1 Glendale along to west wallsend and along John Renshaw turning left at the sweeper to Mulbring and through to Cessnock and on to Bellbird down past sweetmans timber to Wollimbi pub for lunch. Take Wollimbi road to the F3 and home that way. Or could change the meet point to Freemans for any Central Coast cars that want to join

2. Glendale, Mulbring , Cessnock then along to Broke and take the road to Millbrodale and into Singleton for lunch. Leave Singo and go along Queen St past the school all the way to the end and turn right for some nice country road back to Branxton and home from there

That's the only two I can think of at the moment

yea this rain is bullsh!t...

my front seat is generally free..... just saying ha

The left or right one? :P

Yeah well we'll give it a couple of days and see what happens ;) I am nervous now!!

Yah!!! A newcastle wasteland!

Can I call shot gun now Anthony? Providing mines not going...and matt hasnt claimed it Of corse.

I've seen nothing but red dirt and computer screens for last ten days, flying back to Newcastle tonight. The rain will be something different for me!!!

ha hopefully yours is up and running so we can have another 34R in the mix!

I think even a general meet and greet could be good for SAU Newcastle...

Should we start with a rough time... like maybe mid next month?... need to think of a Pub, overlooking a big carpark maybe?...

any ideas?...

Not mid next month as that is Texi time ;) but either side of that should be OK!!

Oh, and the car is with JEM its in good hands, it's just that I worked on it :P

Ok, early next month is abit busy as well I think the lowdown has a show on the 30th I was thinking of going to.. And there is also a car show in Newcastle on the 1st I think..

Could maybe do next weekend, or around the 7th of next month?

    • yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
    • Quite right, if you make it to that pension you deserve every cent
    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
    • That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.
