Long lost daughter??
Hope not. Fresh from the bottom of a bottle of bourbon [emoji43]. Got the exhaust manifold done. $215.45 gasket studs and washers (genuine nissan) $100.00 for Re-faced machining. Got her re-tinted as well. $335.00. New a/c compressor $450.00 with re-gas. And so it continues... [emoji48]

Did you see the old Hakusaka there? She was clean
Yeah mate I've seen it before a few times. Birth of the legend. Would love to go for a spin in it. The ranga curse was kicking in at that stage so I was hunting for shade like a great white shark. didn't get any pics sadly:-( you gotta love a straight 6 with tripple carbs in any format.

So, I have to fkn rant about this or my head will fkn explode.

Every one has those soccer mum type friends that leach their way into your circle of FB etc, right?

Well, somehow I ended up with one of these twatty bourgeois bitches on my feed, and paid little to no attention to it, untill it recently posted a pic of the damage from someone ALMOST running up the back end of its car. I say ALMOST because from the pic its pretty obvious its was a very glancing blow (car was repaired and returned to her in a little over a week)

I STILL didnt pay much attention, until this little gem popped up a little later

Now, its that last sentence that burns my arse like a bad late night burrito, as a frequent payer of compulsory third party insurnace premiums on my rego.

Anyone want to comment on a suitable reaction? Because a public expletive filled rant at the POS on FB just doesnt cut it when they can just delete/report me for it.

 

 

 

 

People pull this shit all the time... its utter bull crap! She should be done for fraud and made an example of!

Thats pure porn haha love it

Morning all

Got to see Ash Grunwald in Freo last night, tearing it up with a drummer and a couple of the finest local blues legends ever, was an awesome night, and will give a massive thumbs up to the freo port garden bar, never been there before and its carrying on freos live music culture in the best way!

Nothing better than going to a killer gig and at the end the artists step off stage straight into the crowd for beer and good times.

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • 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/
