there is other options like u catching public transport sum where but i doubt u wanna do that recovering

Just a thought that is might be worth sharing phone numbers amongst friends attendind and/or picking a channel to use on the UHF for this cruise.

Since it looks like it could be a good turnout I am sure others would like to be forewarned if there are any problems on the road up ahead. (perhaps have alternate meeting points/destinations selected if need be)

Went down Sturt poolice station today and asked the copper at the front desk (female with an european accent) whats the go with cruises? I said that I was 'thinking' of 'planning' a cruise in the next couple of months or whatever. She kept asking about dates and what cars, I said havent got dates and i said car enthusiast's cars. She went out the back to ask a traffic copper but no-one was 'available'. She handed me a coppers name and ph. number and rang it 5 times and no answer.(i guess too busy doing what cops do.........coffee, donuts.etc) ;) Anyway she said there is some sort of protocal when organising a cruise and its possible to get a clearance if the the requirements are met.

Anyone here previously organised a cruise and knows more about this??

Well finally got through to the traffic copper and he told me to provide him with route and destination details and date and times of cruise. Told me that it is not illegal to have a cruise without notifying them, but telling them in advance would look better on 'our' part and they would take 'us' more seriously having told them about it. For example we could not get pulled over for cruising because we notified them. He told me that they do not intend to set up a defect station in our path but do encourage safe driving. I reassured him we are not a 'hoon' club but we are rather 'car enthusiasts'.

Anyways gave me a fax no. to send him details of cruise.

Seems a bit weird giving them details...............could be canaries galore!!

Dont worry haven't sent anything information and have been very vague with them.

Thoughts?????

Give them the start point and end point and the basic route ie South Rd, Main North Rd, Coast Rd or whatever and the expected times (we are always late). I advised them of the cruise we had a few months ago up north, and there were no problems. Anyone dooing stupid things deserves to be pulled over, this is a cruise not a qualifying sessin for D1.

I would go conservative on the numbers (10 sounds better than 60) because we never get as many turning up as we expect. (and as mentioned some others are going to meet you there rather than cruise with the group)

yeah sounds like a good idea! i would rather tell them about the cruise if there is an incident then it could get "out of hand". But having said that everyone is responsible for their own actions and if you are an idiot on the road and get pulled over its your own fault.

    • 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/
