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.

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
