Top Night, Made out like a bandit with the raffle.

The Bonnet wrap is a fantastic product, lots of instant horse power to be had with that.

Thankyou to Terry and the SAU boys for organising the night, and to the Meguiars boys as well for putting in on.

Had a great night! I had to cut it short due to personal matters I had to attend to.

My apologies for not saying hello to those who I intended to (Terry, SiNNO, darksky34 to name a few). Didn't want to make things awkward/be rude and chatter away during the demo. For everyone there, I'm probably the youngest one lol, rocking in my peachy singlet.

I agree. A great night put on by Motor Active.

A big thanks to SAU for organising this for us. Great info and can't wait to try out the liqui moly products and meguirs products I bought. (I've already used the gold class rich leather product on my seats and it looks good. Love the smell as well.)

Great bunch of guys you are & so, the Meguiar's crew enjoyed it too.

This club of ours is the only club to have received a complimentary "wrap" > and not only did they give away one > it was two!!!

The winner of the "best sport award" has to go to Duncan!!!

> there he was minding his own business

> waiting for the door prizes to be given out

> I held ticket #18

> Duncan held ticket #26

> I said, "Take this. This is the winning ticket!"

> Duncan obligingly swapped

> The first prize awarded was of course, ticket #26

> Ticket #18 didn't win anything

> I'll let you know one day Duncan what was in the box :whistling:

Burning I couldn't stay for the draw. Could have had a chance. Was it just a straight pick out or was there a re-draw due to no-claim?

Was fun guys, thanks to Terry, Luke, Eric, Ryan, and whoever else had a hand putting it together. Thanks to the motor active guys, who run like a well oiled machine, and seem to have a product for everything!

Was interesting seeing the wrapping, impressive product.

Can't wait for tech night #2!

Great night!! Big thanks to all the organizers and the guys at motor active for putting on a great night!!

Good to catch up with everyone again and great to see everyone fighting to get a spot, hope that sways a few people to become members ;)

Bring on the next tech night!!

A big thanks to all the SAU organizers and the guys at motor active for putting on a great night.

I was very impressed by the product demonstrations and could not believe how far wrap products have come in the last few years because the R31 bonnet simply looked amazing.

Great team effort Andy > Win-win for all!!!

You're invited to Tech Night #2 > I'll PM you Andy.

And as Arnold says in a film, "We'll be back!" of something like that!

Meguiar's team has been gracious to say the least > your tutors were really good!

    • 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/
    • Dang, those BBS are so nice!
