Hey everyone

There has been a bit of talk on some forums about animal cruelty, which spurred a few thoughts about helping out the RSPCA.

The RSPCA has a simple and direct mission, which is To prevent cruelty to animals by actively promoting their care and protection.

In respect of this, we have organized an all day cruise, BBQ and social event to help raise funds to donate to the RSPCA to help ensure that they are able to keep doing such a fantastic job.

The details for the cruise are as follows:

Date: Sunday 8th April 2007

Meeting Time: 11am Departing Time: 12pm Midday

Meeting Place: Harry’s Diner, Windsor.

**There will be a South Side mini meet up (for Gold Coast/Brisbane South Side people ) at Springwood IKEA at 10am LEAVING at 10:30am, from there, we will meet the rest at Harry's Diner**

Destination: To be disclosed shortly ;) But will be heading north, into the mountains.... :(

Donations: There will be route maps available on the day at the meeting point, a gold coin donation will be required for this map. You will also be given an RSPCA Charity Cruise sticker with your map, to put on your window so you can show your support.

- There will also be RSPCA merchandise to buy, and any other donations are encouraged.

- There will be a nice fun mix of cruise roads, and the twisty mountain roads to keep things interesting.

- I will be supplying food for a BBQ at the end of the cruise, and canned drinks will be sold for $1... a friendly local butcher has agreed to donate meat. but any other food you would like to bring for yourself, or seats if you think of it, feel free to do so.

- If you have a CB or UHF Radio, please bring it along, as we will have a designated channel to chat on and mess around with.

As there will be news and media crews present, I ask for everyone to be on your BEST BEHAVIOR… this is a Fund Raising Cruise for a good cause, so please keep a good name to all car clubs involved, our sponsors, and of course the RSPCA.

I am currently lining up Sponsors for this cruise, also getting a few companies and business to donate. If you know of any workshops, business's, or companies that might like to get involved, they will be mentioned, and will get coverage. Good way to get a companies name out there in a positive light, and support a good cause at the same time.

Sponsors So Far

- Option1Garage – Your Japanese Connection

- True Sound Productions – For all your sound and lighting needs.

If you cannot attend this cruise, but would still like to donate, the RSPCA Bank Details are as follows:

not far away now guys and girls

the RSPCA bank account details are now on the front page, first post...for those people that cant make the cruise, but still want to donate. i was going to create a separate account (as it would be easier to tally how much was raised), however, i want people to feel assured that they know where it is going (some people wouldnt want to put money into a personal/non business account.

SO... if you do, can you please send me a pm letting me know, just so i can add it to the raised amount. smile.gif and also so i can let them know (as they need to account for deposits into their account when the statements come ect)

also, if you do, please put 2007 Cruise for a Cause Donation as a reference on the transfer.. that way it will be easier for them to track.

thanks

Em

Due to unforeseeable problems that have arisen, and after talking it over with a few people involved, This cruise has now been postponed until further notice.

Please tell anyone that was going to come that isnt on this forum that it will no longer be held this weekend.

I do apologise for the last minute change, however, it has only just come to my attention that this cruise can not run

thanks to everyone that donated, the money will be sent to the RSPCA tomorrow.

      new 1.5 LSD issues/concerns

      By JC71 · Posted

      looking for some help and maybe some insight on others experience with a new LSD. R34 GT ran and drive beautifully, but always alot of grip loss due to the open R200 rear end, so I just installed a new 1.5 LSD way into the stock open R200 for a ER34. Simple. Everything seemed right. I test drove for the first time this weekend. as I started to back out the garage the first time slowly with tires straight it sounded and felt like I had a loose or half disconnected drive shaft...that was clucking around loose and shaking entire vehicle, and making it feel like the trans clutch was spontaneously slipping then grabbing very roughly while just letting out pedal slowly. I backed it out went to pull forward with the same noise, shake and slip grab feeling with hesitation, I turned the tires to back out more and then pulled ahead some same thing but worst because of added wheel resistance (which that I expected) puzzled … pulling it back in checking everything over and finding nothing wrong, I tried it the next day. same thing, couldn’t believe how it shook everything again making a terrible noise and making it feel like the trans clutch was slipping and grabbing, but I got it out of garage into the driveway, got it straight, drove forward and then reveres a few times in a straight line everything shaking , causing what felt like clutch slip and grab every time, sounded like right behind front driver tire and I could feel it in the floor board with my feet,... worst right when beginning to let clutch pedal out to engage slightly, shuttering and sounding terrible along the way…I managed to slowly get down the road, babying it the whole way, once I was rolling (out of 1st) seemed to be better and between shifts, then clutch felt closer to normal…not slip/ grab etc., but back down to any stop, straight road or turning, same thing. Made no difference if all tires were straight or if I was turning. All other gauge read out correct. with in 2 miles as planned I reached the empty parking lot and performed the break in procedure that came with lsd, essentially to drive in a figure 8 a bunch.  Did this, binding chattering, and shaking the car the whole way. I drove it back home seemed somewhat normal once I was in straight line and past 10 mph or so, and I know it will “bind” on corners and cause some tires squeal when turning especially from a stop, but when I begin to move it still causes what feels like the trans clutch to slip and jerk badly as well as shaking the entire car, and sounds terrible, that I didn’t expect. I used the fluid they supplied with LSD kit and did the breaking, planning to change fluid as they suggest after breaking, but wondering will it get smoother or less aggressive with use? maybe a 1.5 is just too aggressive for normal road driving?   I have a LSD that I put in my 71 cuda when I restored it, with amazing smooth , quite yet effective results. Different style LSD but that ones a joy to drive. maybe expecting too much from this R200?

      Squeaking clutch/throw out bearing

      By patrickxdf12 · Posted

      Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
