What sort of question is that...

I say all our cars are big head turners... Just for dif reasons..

Sorry, but my opinion.... you can come barging into the fourms and start asking for the best car here.

Have a look at some of the pics, then pm them and ask if they can take you...Which all of us are kind enough to say yes.

Clearly i have annoyed quite a few of you by making enquiries for a formal car.

Sorry for any offence i have caused anybody. I tried going about getting a formal car in a nice enough way, so i thought anyway. But now im being accused of just barging into a forum and annoying people.

It was just a general question to see what was available to me & yes of course i would be willing to pay.

Anyways.........like i said, sorry!

Hey WetYet, dont sweat it.

It's fine mate. Best place to come looking for many great looking rides. Most of the guys here have done a fair few this year so far and prolly just getting a tad tired, like me.

I cant speak for all but I reckon most are doing 2-3 a week for the last cuppla weeks. A fair bit of effort if you consider we knock off work, race home and spend ages on the cars cleaning them. Do this s few times a week and you soon get over it.

Most of us love doing the runs as we see a lot of mates and a lot of good cars.

If you check the posts here you'll see a fair few asking, plus our freinds, family and other skyline owners as favours etc.

I have 2 next week but none the following week, I'm in the midst of trying to get work done and a tune on my girl.

I have a GTR R32 and is fine for the Job you want. PM me if your keen and we'll roll on the 13th.

EDIT: Offer withdrawn. No more formals for me after Wednesday this week.

PS. Suggest if you got the time check out Hawkers next week as we have a big number of lines doing that one. See one you like and speak to the driver. We always park afterwards and have chat.

holy sh*t dude are you serious????

i know some of us dont even charge, just so we can help out some yourg guys who would like a nice car to drive them to their formal, if i earnt more money i wouldnt charge at all, but i havnt charged more than $20

Call me names but I have not charged nor received a cent.

Except two years back a girl offerd me s3xual favours - Nah she actually slipped a fiddy in the consol. We did a Photo session it was kind of neat she was keen on my ride.

Called me twice to go for another cruise with a freind of hers on the week end. Just loved the Skylines.

It'd be nice to be offerd fuel money cause it gets exy but thats not my motivation.

    • 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/
