--OBSERVATION CRUISE, Victoria -- 15th June '03

Just reminding everyone to keep this day open as it is only 2 weeks away!

Northern Street Cruizers (my car club) are having a HUGE observation cruise.

This cruise is different to most as, after registering you are given a MAP/route and also a questionair. The idea is to follow the detailed route/instructions and as you are cruising answer the questions provided. Most questions relate to landmarks/objects that are seen at various points. A generous time frame is given to complete the cruise, as to have everyone meet up at the final point for a supplied BBQ. At this stage NOVA are coming along to join in and report/promote the cruise.

DETAILS:

DATE: Sunday, 15th June, 2003

START/REGISTER: Skyways car park, Westfeild S/C., Airport West. MEL Ref: pg:16 A4

TIME: 9:30am - 10:30am (register closes at 10:30am)

FINISH/BBQ: A park on Wellington Rd., S.E. Suburbs. (This is all i know as only the committy members know which park) Detailed (read: fool proof) instructions/map will be given upon registering.

Note: Total distance from STRART to FINISH is approx 71km.

Note 2: No e-tag required!

COST: $10 per car. (this includes BBQ at the Park)

PRIZES: For 1st, 2nd and 3rd most correctly answered questions.

seperate prize for car club members that will be entering, not to make it look doge if a member wins.:uh-huh:

CONTACT: Corey-0418103392 or Paul-0416277907

SO, bring your family, GF/BF, friends and have a great and entertaining afternoon. More people in your car will help you answer questions better.

PS: Most of the profit, if any, will go towards the funds required to run the DECA fun day, in Shepparton. Hmmmm legal drift, burnouts, short circuit time race, slalom, etc. :burnout:

PEOPLE THAT HAVE SHOWN INTEREST:

- Al -> R33

- NismoR34 -> UNKNOWN

- Predator666 -> R33

- DJ-L3THAL -> R33

- Lowlux -> R31

- Assassin -> R34

- Sniffy -> UNKNOWN

- ApacheX -> R33

- KDR33 -> R33

Congratulations lowlux, getting first prize, with the most correctly answered questioniar. Actually your g/f should probably get most the credit as you would have been too busy drivin :uh-huh: (sssshhhhh!, i wont tell anyone, haha too late!!)

It was a great event, and we still managed to get 28 cars. Unfortunately the wether and probably exams were the main contributing factors to a smallish turn out. The next one will be planned at a different time of the year.

As for you sleepy heads who had nooo really excuse to miss it, well your lose :D , just hope to see ya all at another cruise. :uh-huh:

Clarky was driving the white R33 GTR, the one parked next too my burgundy R33.

Well fun was had by all with a few tricky questions to seperate the feild, even thou it was a cold, wet misserable day. The feed at the end partly made up for it.

C Ya

Alan

PS: Sorry lowlux, i am bad with names. Can you please remind me? :D

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
