Just had a real string of good luck.... Started on Friday night..... Went and saw 2F2F at innaloo. I decided to pass by scarborough on the way home.... Did the cruise through and as I had left there were two very lovely ladies in a white commie who wanted to have a play..... We actually played all the way from Scarborough to Mullaloo and back from Mullaloo back to Scarborough..... I pulled back into Scarborough and they pulled in along side me.... I must of chatted with them for about an hour or something like that.... Hehe one of them was a model :) Haha.... we had talked for about 30 minutes before we had realised that we all hadnt introduced ourselves..... it was a great night....

Saturday night.... Got roped into going to the Rollaboyz car cruise.... and as usual there were cops and crashes.... Another 7 cars smashed and off the road from this cruise..... We decided to leave the cruise before it ended and we cruised around going from place to place.... Took a drive through scarborough again ( hoping to bump into the ladies from Friday night again :) ) and as we were leaving the scarborough strip ( through the steep exit ) I put my foot down and got "abit" of wheelspin and such.... it just so happens that there was a cop pulling in at the same time.... I just went " Ohhh shit ".... we kept driving and sure enough got pulled over about 100m down the road.... The cop says to me " You took that corner abit hard don't ya think? " ... I said " Its a pretty steep road " ... He took my license away and took down my details then brought it back and handed it to me and gave me a warning for " Poor throttle control " .... I tell you I felt soo lucky this was a cool cop....

And Sunday I won my Superleague game of cricket....

It was like the dream weekend :P

traction? whats that? never heard of it..

speaking of that - i need new tyres asap.. any hints on where to go for some 17" x 255 and 17" x 235? want something relatively good - but cheap enough that i won't care if there's smoke pouring off them.. :P

    • They are, a good friend of mine bought one to replace his blow factory turbo, running a Toshi Tune reflash. Just use their supplied water/oil lines and you're good to go. At the time, they were like $900 delivered.
    • This is an option for 100% bolt on, the GCG high flow -  https://gcg.com.au/turbo-charger-upgrade-skyline-gtst-2iu-xtrgts-s1.html Also, I'm pretty sure hypergear does a high flow that is 100% bolt on, it just doesn't make as much power as their bigger high flows.  Even if you get a hypergear turbo that requires you to chance the intake piping, it is a really simple modification. It can be as simple as a piece of silicon hose and you pop a filter on the end. It doesn't have to be some crazy pie cut titanium work of art intake pipe.  If you have the ability to swap the turbo yourself, you would be able to sort the intake piping out. 
    • Just as a thought, if it's in neutral, thats your drive line disconnect, not the clutch. Clutch slip at the dyno with pedal fully out, is actually adding a second disconnect. So it's not a clutch issue if you're in neutral. Just a bit of friction dragging the output around while in the air.
    • The HG high flow is excellent, and costs about the $$ you're talking about. But it, and probably every other highflow, uses a diffeent core than the original turo, and the original Hitatchi core is quite long. So, I think it is inevitable that there is likely no such thing as a highflow that just "bolts on" with no other effort required. And the same is likely true for HG's outright replacement "bolt on" turbos (the ATR things). And the same is likely true for anything similar from elsewhere. I have no idea if the cheap Chinese/Taiwanese complete turbos from eBay/Temu/etc are as bolt on as they claim. I mean, they claim the bolt onto the NAs as well as the turbos, and we know that can't be "bolt on". But it wouldn't matter because I'm not buying a $169 4 psi turbo for anything other than a paddock basher.
    • Bummer...yeah i "need" something to "ease" up the work and for my driving it would be enough.    Iam counting the tune "without" turbo. I do not mean "cheap" like something from Temu around 200 USD, "Cheap" is something around 1000 USD?
