--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

    • 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.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it. 
    • Not yet quite as bad as what we've seen a Jim Berry clutch do in an R32 GTR though when it decided to cut a chassis rail in half... Still very very gnarly and a great reason to avoid.
