Holy shit!

All you lot live up this way??!?!?

I was beginning to think every ****ing 'line owner lived in Sydney!

j/k :wassup:

I own the almost stock 33 you see in the avatar over yonder <-----

Bought only a few months ago now, and already cracked the front bar!!!

Yay me!

I'll come into town on Monday if others are gunna be around. Love to meet some of you guys. Faces to names etc etc.....

And Dave, where are you getting the FMIC installed at?

What sorta price?

Hey Ian,

Its a Greddy R-SPL (link) (but the R33 model, couldnt find a link to anyhting but R34 in my haste).

Getting it installed next wednesday at DenStoj Auto Centre, 8 Arnott St, Newcastle West. No idea on price, but wouldnt it imagine it to be too much as the piping is ready to be put on without any custom work needing to be done. Im also having some work done to my frontbar so why i couldnt get an approximate quote cost for ya.

Come in on monday, be good to meet ya. Just wish my f'kin car had the intercooler on by the weekend/Monday... :Oops: oh well.

I live out near Uni - so if any of you fellas live near there then let me know, that way we can meet up and drive in there so we arrive at the same time.

Ill try get in by 3:30pm (largely variable on seediness).

I own a yellow R34 GTT....its off the road at the moment but VERY soon and I mean real soon she'll be back...and be a real TT hehe I so love my new 25/30's mmm im hanging to drive her again but with the 26 in here it should be interesting :)

There seems to be heaps of 33's in newy....

yeah , i used to live in newcastle, but when i go up to visit, only one skyline driver ever waved to me :D prob cause i have an old school 89 skyline ( to the left of your screen)! its still a skyline damn it ! ( i think the people that waved to me where in a maroon r33 on series 1 ,hunter street near the "mall")

you want to be sure you go the wharf road way to the foreshore on monday as i think they are having an Anzac parade in the "mall" or maybe it's on the weekend, anyways.

Hey ULOOOK,

Mine's late model wrx blue?

Whats the name of your blue?

Dramas', the workshop is booked out till next wednesday so the fmic won't be on by anzac day :D

Its apparently R34 blue with pearl in it cause i've had it resprayed.

Hello Dong :wassup: Hahahahaha!!!

Hey people. I'm in bris, origionally from newcastle, but i'm moving back there in a few months...YEAH!!!. I have a white R33 gtst with the usually bolt on mods, Front mount, BOV, K&N Air Filter and my little custom made internally wastegated GT30 - Witch mind you is the size of my head, and at 14psi it's making around 260rwkw.

I'm on the look out for a bright orange silvia that absolutly SMOKED my old soarer even at 25psi, i've been told that its got an RB26 with big work done but i still want another go.

See you lot soon hey.

I own a yellow R34 GTT....its off the road at the moment but VERY soon and I mean real soon she'll be back...and be a real TT hehe I so love my new 25/30's mmm im hanging to drive her again but with the 26 in here it should be interesting :rofl:

A yellow r34 did you get a sterio or something at pro sound jesmond? Lucky you one of only a few in Newcatle to have a 34 but with the rb26 and 2530's that will be a beast. :P

Hey guys, having some problems with mis-firing lately.

This topic has people with exactly the same problem as me:

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/showthread.php?t=32356&page=1&pp=25

Wondering if any of you guys could show me how to fix this cause im no backyard mechanic :D

i didnt realise there were that many ppl around newy with lines.... i wave to every line/import i see there, rarely get one back though.

ill be down on monday, is it ok if a mate brings his 180sx down?? it makes a respectable 244rwkw, with a few mods..

ill see most of you there....where are we meeting up again??? i couldnt see anywhere that we are going to catch up. hope the cops arent to bad on the weekend...it will be a slow cruise down.

cheers

I'm fron newcastle too. sooo many skylines here, which is good.

I am currently considering making a few mods to my R33. It's pretty much stock apart from exhaust and pod.

If anyone in newcastle has a few more mods more than mine, it would be great if they could take me for a spin. The reason being, i'm not sure whether I want to start modding it. If 25kw from say a powerfc only makes a small difference then I'm not sure whether I want to do it.

cheers

    • 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/
