Hi guys, I'm looking at organizing a cruise some time in November.

i am thinking of another GOR run or maybe do the cruise around town to nice look out spots.

also does any body know of any long weekends in November.

the reason for this is ignition DVD do wont to cover a Melbourne based hot spot, so i said i would give them one in nov so all can

be organized.

I wont do it on a Sunday as I'm coming from Wagga Wagga and may have other people with me so we need the Sunday to drive back safely.

its a 4-4.5h drive.

If all goes well I'll get it going

Cheers, Brentt

I get ignition every month, would definately be up for this, wouldnt be up for GOR tho but somewhere around melb would be good.

the 3rd is the best date as that is the weekend before melbourne cup day and i always take the monday off so its a 4 day weekend for me :D

well if people like the idea of crusieng around melbourne every throw up some good places to stop and i can use them

Yes, then they can have Ignition: Gaol cell edition.

Seriously, how about starting out in a nice outer suburb that isn't assosciated with hooning, but not so uptight that the locals will call the police if a loud exhaust is heard. Consider Templestow, Doncaster, those sort of places.

Definately not Chadstone, after last time.

get onto the Eastern Freeway, a couple dozen skylines on that, 4 lanes wide should make for a good shot.

If it's going to mention Skylines Australia AT ALL I'd clear it with the comittee first. Could be good PR.

Maybe even get them to come along to a track day or something. I think that'd be more impressive than a bunch of dicks dragging on the street.

It'd be a great chance to show people that SAU is NOT about hooning and stuff like that, but if anyone screws around, we can expect every skyline in town to be pulled over the day after the DVD comes out.

Yes, they check that stuff.

After watching every dvd i can tell you that there not interested in street drags, in fact they bag the people who want to be heros and get the place shut down, in fact they never show any actual cruising, what we need is one big meeting place where they can film lots of cars in the one place, also if it is confined to the skyline community then it will flop, most of the meets they go to have 300+ cars from all different makes, for this to be succcesfull we need to get everyone involved, im talking, rotary, toyota, holden, ford, mitsubishi, hell there are even ppl with nice datsuns (not many but a few) everyone needs to turn out to get a big feature on the dvd, if my memory serves me right i believe the biggest one so far was in adelaide with around 800 cars.

Either way i will be there but it needs a lot more than just skylines to get there attention.

Yep spot on. No reason you can't run a kick ass cruise to that location though :)

yea im not up for going to aceral hot spots. i just got to think of some bick ass carparks.

docaster is one spot maby the start

move on to frankston

back to some were

userly is a good run

so it looks like alot of people wona come and do it.

what ill do is ill post the dates to igntion and see when they can do it.

when thats confermed ill post it up and ill get every body to post it all over the place.

and cruise guidelines will be inforced on this one

just to throw a few ideas up, dandenong tourist rd is allways a good drive, its no GOR but still good fun. OR beach rd from st kilda down to like arthurs seat or sumthing, only prob is traffic lights breaks every1 up

even though its a long way from melbourne, has anyone else done the hill climb up Mt Buller outside the ski season times? my parents live up there so i have done it heaps of times and it is a bl**dy fantastic drive. would be great to get a few lines and do a weekend up there but probably too fay for everyone to drive! sooks lol!

few ideas for pple to think bout!

cheeeerz

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • 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.
