Just to give everyone a bit of insight into the cruise and the cause...

The venue (which ended up being way to small), was the largest space the organiser could find that was a) Privately owned and b) willling to give access to hundreds of rev-heads.

The cruise, many years ago, used to converge on the lighthouse but outgrew the space - and the cops didnt help when they started closing off the parking lots every anzac day.

This year the police stopped the event from being held at the airport - or on any other public owned property - but conceded to it being held on private land - and its really only due to the charity that the police lay off (in general) on the people who cruised to Albion Park. Thats why there was defecting happening at the lighthouse but generally not on the route to Albion Park. I noticed the cop who was booking people parked on the nature strip - but i believe he was one of few police in Albion park who caused any issues.

The organisers sold 500 SuperCruise stickers (all that were printed), all the proceeds of which will be going to charity.

The cars filled the BP Servo, the backlot, the space around the truck repair and wash centre, and a newly constructed warehouse up the back. They calculated they could fit 500 cars and therefore printed 500 stickers.

Its estimated that over 2000 cars cruised into Wollongong - many going to the lighthouse area not knowing that the new location is Albion Park, and many being forced to park on the princes hwy.

Next year the event will probably be held in the same place, but more parking will be available in the field behind the new warehouse. There is also unconfirmed rumours that there will be some action in the form of dyno events and the like.

      Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.

      R34 25GT Engine Light 21

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
