That V8.......

travelled behind it most of the way - got a few neat gopro shots however my main cameras photos came out 99% overexposed.. pretty much just white pictures. really bummed abou that

Pm me bro :)

.

Trying to be helpful not a jerk,

Part of the confusion for me was that the route map wasn't specific.

I'm not sure if that was intentional or not (gatecrashers or the fuzz), but Point B was right next to Purling Brook Falls, so when some of us got lost, I just led us there not knowing the actual stop was Best of All Lookout further down.

Link to map of route we actually drove compared with link to route map

Maybe a quick list of locations people could print/store in their GPS/enter into their Smartphone Maps app.

Would mean they could reach the next point from where ever they ended up getting lost.

For example,

- BP, Stapylton-Jacobs Well Rd, Stapylton

- Park car park, Hardys Rd, Mudgeeraba (North end, cnr Gold Coast Springbrook Rd)

- Best of All Lookout, (End of) Repeater Station Rd, Springbrook

- Witches Chase Cheese Company, Long Rd, North Tamborine (cnr Eagle Heights Rd)

Ah bummer, I thought you guys had made it back.

I'm certainly going to do what you are suggesting next time, i'll probably print out some cards (a4 pages cut into quarters or something) with the addresses and times for meet points etc so people can find their way.

Zeke- I wasn't driving on the way up.

    • 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.
