yay yaaaaaaaaaaaay!! ;)

ok.... seeing as the weathers getting good and we cant let the NSW guys have a better meet than us i think its time the VIC Ceffy team met up and had a BBQ!!

or something...

plus i wanna have a meet before i sell my ceff :D

SO.... lets have some ideas... i was thinking maybe we could organise a BBQ at XTC or something... maybe have a small dyno day and see what these ceffys in VIC are pumping out and i can legitimately have a reason to be driving my ceffy with the UVP (im getting work done on the car for rego etc) :)

SO... what say u savages?

16 Louvain St

Coburg

1PM start... bring a plate and a drink or something... chuck ya car on the dyno and see what its got :)

I've got a head start cause my car is at XTC atm. Engine is rooted. Sam and I are pretty sure it was an NA motor someone stuck a turbo and turbo ECU on.

I'm up for a BBQ weather the car is fixed or not at the time. Would love to see CEF-ZLA and drool over an RB26DETT I can't afford :D

I'll be in NSW from the 29th Oct till 7th of November. So if you can accomodate that I'd be most appreciative.

Car is not what I'd call funny. :) Was going to get a front bar from Steve but now the money is going towards a new engine. Looks like another RB20DET for me for the time being. :)

if u want i have an RB20DET i have one for 1200 :D

as said before will be there go on the dyno and all, inark see if you can get that hot chick in the cef to come down and maybe sam can organise a spit roast...

leave that one right there.

hahahaha

i'll try :) but i think im banned from mccr and thats where she frequents

Thanks for the offer inark. Sam's doing some digging round for engines for me. He said he prefered something with warranty. Not doubting the condition of your engine and all but it probably doesn't have warranty. Not that warranties mean much anyway in the real world. Makes the wife happier though.

Ni, your going to find this funny.... It's really not my week for motor vehicles. I put my ZZR250 motorcycle up the ass of a ute yesterday on the South Eastern. So as some guy said to me at work today I now have two off-road vehicles....

But I'm still going to be there on saturday. :) Lucky I have three vehicles....

My wife said she may also come along. What do you want people to bring? I.E. salads, meat, drinks etc etc. Does anyone have a portable BBQ or is one onsite?

well looking at the weather forcast its going to be a shit day... so we may have to have it inside... if thats at all possible.

gees ur having no luck are u? maybe u should start catching public transport for now :)

well if everyone just brings a small thing of meat or a plate that should be fine... i'll bring some meat and a dozen beers ;)

If I catch public transport there would be major carnage I reckon *chuckle*

Don't believe the weather forecasts they are hardly ever right. But because I'm going it's bound the rain, sideways even so it goes straight into the building *chuckle*

ok cool I'll make sure to bring some meat and maybe a caesar salad or something.

    • 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/
