I don't know if my old frail 23 Year Old legs can carry me that far! :lol: Red Cat is also good!

Nah sweet! we could meet up just before hand and go!

Well if you guys are interested it looks like Strich9nine and myself will be there...well be rather puffed but we will be there :)

I just work at Dumas House! Good ole Gov buildings :-)

The case is some time away but that will give me some time to make up some signs and stuff for the court room! aahha!

i wonder if he has a photo standing in front of another white R33, cause mine was stolen only 2 months ago, and thats a good idea about going there and watching him get done, but knowing the courts he'll only get a slap on the wrist, if he gets that a few ppl should be waiting for him outside and teach him a lesson :headshot:

I was thinking, if you make a cruise out of it, wouldn't that put him at a high profile and then the media will no doubt brand him with some notorious name (since so many import drivers turned up for his sentence)

then firstly he'll get some big head for being 'Brutal Barr' or whatever and may get some respect where it isn't due (from other theives)

then there may be people who might follow 'Brutal Barr's footsteps trying to make themselves more successful (ie out of jail) and more notorious

hmm, maybe I read too far into things sometimes, but meh

I'd be up for giving him a beating

some group hold off the coppers and another group can get in there and whip him silly

I understand what you mean....perhaps if we just meet up out the front then? fair enough we don't what this guy thinking he is hot crappola but would be good i think if we all went in there...

Perhaps after we can just go on a casual cruise or sumfin?

I know a few of you also live down in rockingham, anyone go from rocko->west perth everyday 9am-5:30? im moving down to rockingham in 5 or so weeks while the house is getting built so wouldnt mind car pooling if anyone is interested. public transport is a no no for me.

That is my car on page 3...

Boost you could ask the DPP ( Department of Public Prosecutions) if they would like a victim of the crime to make a stsement to the Judge prior to sentencing ( since he is already glity).

You could say how it effected a hard working honest memeber of the community and you couldn't get to work etc.

Should go down a treat.:)

Hey!!! I also work in West Perth...... just a block down from the IBM building and parlament house..... do you guys actually drive your lines into work??? If so that would explain why I am forever seeing them going past parlament house at lunch time!!!

I'm lucky cause I got a company car so I can save my line for the weekends :) .... Keeps it more special that way......

But I do agree over the last few months skylines are popping up everywhere like mushrooms :uh-huh:

My Gosh!

I work right next to Parliament house...2 mins work...There is so many of us...OK lets start a new forum: SWP - Skylines West Perth! hahaha :lol:

Yeah the skyline craze is definately catching on! when i bought mine a year ago i though i was special coz there wasn't many around.....now theres heaps...i guess like all things when you get top quality at an awesome price everyone wants it.... same with cars.

I do drive my car to work sometimes but not past parliament....though on the occasions that i have that hill is soo much fun!

    • Also, I logged some data from the ECU for each session (mostly oil pressures and various temps, but also speed, revs etc, can't believe I forgot accelerator position). The Ecutek data loads nicely to datazap, I got good data from sessions 2, 3 and 4: https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-2?log=0&data=7 https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-3?log=0&data=6 https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-4?log=0&data=6 Each session is cut into 3 files but loaded together, you can change between them in the top left. As the test sessions are mostly about the car, not me, I basically start by checking the oil pressure (good, or at least consistent all day). These have an electrically controlled oil pump which targets 25psi(!) at low load and 50 at high. I'm running a much thicker oil than recommended by nissan (they said 0w20, I'm running 10w40) so its a little higher. The main thing is that it doesn't drop too far, eg in the long left hand fish hook, or under brakes so I know I'm not getting oil surge. Good start. Then Oil and Coolant temp, plus intercooler and intake temps, like this: Keeping in mind ambient was about 5o at session 2, I'd say the oil temp is good. The coolant temp as OK but a big worry for hot days (it was getting to 110 back in Feb when it was 35o) so I need to keep addressing that. The water to air intercooler is working totally backwards where we get 5o air in the intake, squish/warm it in the turbos (unknown temp) then run it through the intercoolers which are say 65o max in this case, then the result is 20o air into the engine......the day was too atypical to draw a conclusion on that I think, in the united states of freedom they do a lot of upsizing the intercooler and heat exchanger cores to get those temps down but they were OK this time. The other interesting (but not concerning) part for me was the turbo speed vs boost graph: I circled an example from the main straight. With the tune boost peaks at around 18psi but it deliberately drops to about 14psi at redline because the turbos are tiny - they choke at high revs and just create more heat than power if you run them hard all the way. But you can also see the turbo speed at the same time; it raises from about 180,000rpm to 210,000rpm which the boost falls....imagine the turbine speed if they held 18psi to redline. The wastegates are electrically controlled so there is a heap of logic about boost target, actual boost, delta etc etc but it all seems to work well
    • hahah when youtube subscribers are faster than my updates here. Yes some vid from the day is up, here:  Note that as with all track day videos it is boring watching after the bloopers at the start.  The off was a genuine surprise to me, I've literally done a thousand laps around the place and I've never had instability there; basically it rolled into oversteer, slipped, gripped and spat me out. On the way off I mowed down one of the instructor's cones and it sat there all day looking at me with accusing cone eyes as I drove past. 1:13:20 was my fastest lap, and it was in the second session, 3rd lap.  It (or me!) got slower throughout the day as it got hotter.      
    • It sounds like you want what the Toyota Landcruisers have for their roof racks. Wanna know what you end up with? Rust holes in the roof, and water everywhere...
    • Discovered today that if I select reverse first and take my foot off the brake, then select drive, the drive indicator light works and so does the tiptronic gear indicator. 
    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Does anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
