Looking good. ( being optimistic about the possible part )

weather is looking craper as we get closer to sunday. hopefully it turns around, fingers crossed.

It stopped raining in the gong for now but its still pretty damp.

They are predicting rain and dare i say it'll be worse up the pass.

As much as im hoping it'll be clear, its not looking good.

Hi All,

Weather gods have not been kind to us for tomorrow but rest assured we are still going for a cruise. We have a backup plan if Macquarie Pass is no good but as this stage we are NOT changing the route.

Please keep an eye on the thread for updates.

Feel free to give me a call in the morning : 0432 178 442 for any info. ( maybe not before 7 AM ;) )

Cheers

Ryan

Just in case anyone else is interested. I'm going to go to Just Jap (around the corner from the meet up point) about 40 mins early to have a look around.

Doh! I'm an idiot. It's Sunday. They won't be open!

See everyone at the meet up point.

Im guna say it may be a bit damp and a little drizzley, but at the moment in wollongong we actually have some blue sky but looks like more grey clouds on the way.

Couldn't end up making it guys, had to go into work to make up for being sick on monday/tuesday :(

Hope it was good! (I drove past kirrawee on the way to work but didnt see any skylines!!)

    • You know how your car rolled through a fence in your last jacking escapade? Scissor jacks increase the likely hood of that sort of thing happening immensely!
    • http://calfinn.com.au/product/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c   I have this and fits under a S3 33 GTR with no issues. Purchased in 2009 and not one issue. It was $950 back then. Not cheap but something so important isn’t worth cheaping out on.
    • 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).
