Maybe it was just the flamage from a Skyline exhaust they saw but never having seen a car that far north before they thought it was a dragon   :wassup:

ROFL!!! I think you just solved the phenomenon Adam! Those South QLD'ers are gonna be dissapointed when they find out there's no dragons in the Far North!

Yeah, its shit isn't it. You could always do what I did, I flogged off nearly everything I owned on ebay.. suckers paid 3/4 to 4/5 what I paid for them. Bed, washing machine, fridge, tv, etc..

You lose maybe a $200 on each item... but you can move to QLD and buy it all back again brand new :rofl:. Cost me about $1k that way :D

What I had left at the time all fit in the R33 :D

I always though the other idea.. was to rent a budget truck.. for like a few days.. Open up the dash, disconnect the odometer - drive it to wherever with all your stuff, and then plug the odometer back in. Of course this may be highly dodgy / illegal / fraudulant, if you crashed you're in BIG trouble..lol :D

Yeah, I'm thinking about having a garage sale before I go, see how much stuff I can get rid of. Can't fit too much in the 33 LOL! Did you drive up? I'm gonna drive up, should be a pretty cool drive, not looking forward to the stone chips and bugs though!!! I'll give your last suggestion a miss mate! :rofl:

You could also try a few of the forsale forums.. trading post, etc as well. Didn't take me too long actually.

It's surprising what you can fit in a R33.. you can stack up a heap of boxes across the back seat..

You do get a nice collage of bug splatters.. took me months to get the damn bugs outta the front bar and cooler! Stone chips aren't too bad as long as you don't sit up the ass of cars should be right.

just remember don't park at the side of the road and leave the door open :D or this may be the result:

should be right for locus' .. i drove back around xmas time to melb and back, and there were stuff all, except just over the VIC border. I drove just after sunset too... although you do get more bugs at night because they love splattering themselves on the headlights .. the kangas are the things you need to watch out for at dawn/dusk.

locus aren't as bad as they make out, well anyhow, not that I saw..

Hey Lukas - when are you actually leaving???

Hey Bec, I should be outta here within the next 2 weeks. I am heading up there tomorrow for a couple of days, just to sort some stuff out, then back here to sort some more stuff out.... aaaagh, it is a very stressful time at the moment, I just want to go.

"when are you actually leaving???" ... uuummm are you hanging for me to leave or something? hehehe ... I know you'll miss me driving past your house 10 times a day hey?! :D

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
    • Also wanted to say, my new spark plugs are blackened looks like it's very rich. I have splitfire coilpacks but stock coilpack loom and ignitor. I tried directly grounding the ignitor ground to body as well.
