It has been 2yrs this week since Ben decided to leave us (feels like yesterday) but you have managed to make us feel humble & unreal...at the same time. Around 100 cars turned up in 40C plus heat...many without a/c to help us raise awareness of youth suicide. Ben would have been embarrassed & blown away.

We are so glad three of Ben's best mates were able to join us today...Tim, Clarke & Sam (well known to those in the drift scene)...thanks guys it meant to world to us.

To those who "revvvved up OLD Jules" sick at home....you made her day, although she said the cops came up the street about 20mins after you had gone...not sure why ???? :P>_<:laugh::miner: lol

To every single driver & passenger THANK YOU !!!!! To Mike & Joel ...big ups for all your help.

Finally it appears, despite the sentiment behind the location of the meet point, we have outgrown the car park...so next year we will start somewhere else...BTW we raised $396.60 (without the money raised by the sale of the audio speakers) kindly donated by GT AUTOSOUND...thanks Theo & George.

"the NS.com OLDS - Jules & Mark"

It is great to everyone enjoy themselves...we have 1 memorial cruise & 1 MEGACRUISE (300 cars last year) each year for Youth Suicide Awareness....so I will make sure SAU is included in both, from now on. We have other smaller cruises, as well.

If you enjoyed the route & the fun of getting out & meeting other skyline drivers.....we can organise one just for SAU ???? ...what do you think ???

Thanks again for your support....sorry I did not get a chance to meet you all.

an SAU cruise would be cool! I had a great time sunday cruising together with all the skylines. My passenger had never been on a cruise - well not one this huge, and she loved it! I think i scared her a few times though lol.

Oh and mark, she now proudly displays a RIP sticker on her car :spank:

Im with FLick on this one Mark.

We should have a SAU cruise. Might be interesting seeing alot of skylines in the one place and doing something for charity.

If you need a hand organising anything for the cruise don't hesitate to ask ok mark.

:P

count me in for the SAU cruise! that would be awesome and besides its for a good cause

:):)

OK lets start working on it and make it happen. Firstly is the Sunday the best day???? (ANY day you pick will always not suit some people) ..... Easter is the first w/end in April...too far away ??? ...every one got something on for Easter???

OK how is Sunday 11th or 18th March ???? .... We are happy to organise the route...

Secondly, do you want to invite other forums/clubs or do you want to have the first one just for SAU ????. We NEVER ask for $5/$10 etc....just a gold coin donation....that way everyone can afford it.

The first SAU Youth Suicide Awareness Cruise is underway.

    • Ahhh, I need the whole head unit. I definitely needed to roll back through and review your setup, ha ha! Neat setup they have going on. I just need a full double din head unit. But I want good and responsive. I might have to review what the likes of pioneer have out these days.
    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
