Hi Everyone,

Well after the huge success of last weeks cruise I thought hey why not organise another!

I was thinking the 28th of March , it gives everyone a fair bit more notice this time which should allow to get even more of the Skyline boys out , plus Andrew should be back from Qld then?

I also have that friday free too which makes it even more attractive hehe :P

I love the route we did last time so would be keen to do something simular again , except maybe go even deeper into the hills so it goes a bit longer.

Umm Meeting point is up for debate too after the efforts of the twat in the black/green 180sx , not really the best way to keep a low cop profile when stuff like that happens.

What do you guys think? , I am very keen to try out the new tune and see what the beast can do now :).

Rob.

Im guessing you haven't planned a route yet?

How's about up through Clarendon way ( a really good cruise route that hasn't been thrashed out yet ).

I was thinkn Clarendon, Kangarilla, Prospect Hill, Hope Forest, Back through to Willunga way, and ending up at the beach at Aldinga or somethin????? Open to idea's!

Insert whinge about diff gears "HERE".

I know a cruise route that'll suit the beast down to the ground mate. Go up Pt Wakefield Rd left into AIR. Then down the strip & back along the return road x 10 :D No hassle from the cops either!

Is it just a case of swapping the diff ratio for something more cruise friendly, or is it too much stuffing around?

Cruise on the 28th sounds good :(

Yeah @ $1300 a shot i reckon i can get a new diff every week. When my work gets more active, as im off for 2 weeks atm so low funds atm, I will suprise a few of u. Got some plans on the table to make it more cruiser friendly not to mention LOTS faster, as if it aint fast enough. I reckon 4.11-1 or 3.9-1 instead of the 4.56-1 would be better with the new combo im gonna do. Got some Engine mods coming up soon that will push shit loads more power. I bet u can guess whats in the making but. Will go from a street weapon to an all round MONSTER.

Just wait and see.

Sounds like forced induction is coming!

Brad,

You're gonna' need good rubber on the back! Or lotsa weight in the boot :D Can you sqeeze bigger rubber under the rear via guard lipping/different offset etc... Mini tubs perhaps? Mind you the diff ratio change will help reduce the w/spin a tiny bit, not enough though.

Hmm this is shaping up to be pretty big I think :D.. what have I created ?! :D

Umm in ref to the southern route , it just doesnt do it for me, I have been up there about a million times as my parents live at Meadows and it just doesnt compare to the Gorge in a number of ways.. firstly not as windy and not as much "wholly s### that was close!!" action , and secondly the roads are shit, and 3rd there is a hell of alot more wildlife out at night around there due to it being farmland mainly... car vs roo or sheep or cow = not nice , nearly happen too many times.

just my 2c.

Rob.

Whatsisname r u joking? Cut up an ORIGINAL GTR , have u gone crazy ? That the biggest sin! I wish i could but i cant bear to think about it :[

Tubs is outa the question. gaurds have already been rolled. Main prob is hanbrake cables get in the way. Ill just have to do with what i got atm. Nothing wrong with a bit of wheel spin. Diff gears will help stop that a bit i hope.

    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
    • I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋
