Ey everyone,

Im from wollongong and i have a n/a r33 gts, the beach and lighthouse area will get packed pretty fast by 10:30, so parking might be a problem.

Myself and some friends will get there early, we recently started our own small car club Team [D-FINED]

the site is http://www.teamdfined.tk/

Cheers,

Blake

I'm still undecided as I really cant afford to be defected at the moment

(..and yes the cops will and do defect anyone regardless of what and how you are driving. I go almost every year, park on a back street then walk around to the main cruise route and watch the cops pull over anyone they feel like, considering its generally 2 lanes of stand-still traffic on the cruise route you dont have to be doing anything stupid to catch their attention).

FYI

if anyone wants to join:

9.15am Space station (Shell servo Epping rd Lane Cove)

then to Brighton to meet other clubs.. then to wollongong..

Might see you at brighton.Ill do the park in a side street trick at wollongong and walk up to have look at all the cars..

Ill be there.

I live in the gong so ill be cruising up to Heatcote and wait for a group of cars to come past and join in.

There is heaps of room at Danics but no where near enough for all the cars so park where u can.

Ps it sure isnt muscle cars only.

Biggest variety of cars you will ever see.

I live just South of Alb Park (the destination) and it was raining last night, but the clouds are breaking and can see blue sky - looks like it will hold off. The weather can be very different from Sydney to the 'gong.

Was a great turnout, the venue just wasnt even close to big enough for everyone. Some really top notch cars around the carpark and some no hopers that just couldnt help themselves.

The cops were ok, 1 officer was happy to walk along fining everyone for parking on the side of the road ("Nature strip") but all the others were happy to just let the cars move on by.

By the time I left there and got back to Wollongong most people were on their way out and the police were shutting down the roads.

there was 1 decfect station at the lighthouse,1 allong the beach,1 at the maccas and red rooster as you come down into wollongong there were road blocks cops cops and more cops.

Unmarked police cars were everywhere pulling people over.

So many radars..

Did i mention the cops at albion pk.

I saw a rear ender at cataract creek on the way there.It caused some delays for a bit.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

liz jane,dave,rukus and others i cant remember were at albion pk at the caltex servo i pulled into."bonus" considering i thought id be on my own for the rest of the day.

The cars were just awesome,and the turnout was even better.

some1 post up some piccie's!

There weren't any defect stations from Heathcote Road and down the freeway until you got to the Wollongong exit at Mt Ousley. Most people ust kept going down to Albion Park. Plenty of Police around, but as long as you behaved, there weren't any problems. Although a Lambo Murcielago (?) was pulled up by a revenue speed trap on the way down the freeway. And one Ferrari didn't behave on the way back and was smashed up quite badly on the freeway.

The BP servo was nowhere near big enough, yet the Police had blocked the entry to the airport park, which was empty and could accommodate hundreds of cars easily. We were able to get in via the one way road on the south side heading north on Princes Highway and it was empty.

Good cruise though plenty of nice machines, with one phat old school Monaro being taught a nice GTR lesson :huh:

Hey Guys! An excellent turn out once again! It was nice to finally meet some of you at Bellevue this morning... we ended up cruising to Albion Park BP servo and it was PACKED! From there we drove to the "Blow Hole" in Kiama for photos... The weather could of been better, but it was a fun day out all together... Hope to see you guys soon..

Cheers,

Sarkis

Wonder if this was this the Farrari & Lambo?

Venue was no where nearly big enough - otherwise cars wouldn't need to be using the nature strip.

Cops seemed good, I heard one of the organisers saying that they had to give a donation to some police fund. Cars were great, a deverse mix.

Did any see the blown big block red GT drop its load (gear box/clutch) just as it entered? :huh:

The lambourghini that was pulled over for speeding was an orange kinda colour - the driver wasnt too old either (lucky bastard) Wonder how fast he was going ??

As for the Ferrari check this link out

I was one of the lucky people to recieve a parking fine by officer dicknose for parking on the "nature strip" when infact there were no damn signs anywhere. Ah well :(

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
