How about this... if you're worried that you might get defected for whatever reason... just go straight to the pizza place. On that point though... you may consider making your car legal in every way if you drive it everywhere.

just sayin'

Good point mars, but it's a small price to pay if it means the cruise is not to be hassled by the cops from the very start isnt it?

Just let them know there will be 'a group' of cars there.. They are much more likely not to call the cops if they at least have some clue that there is something going on rather than shitting themselves and panicking when 100 noisy cars randomly turn up in their car park!

tbh, I reckon if you call and say "we have 50 skylines coming to meet here on friday" they will most likely say: "we don't give you permission to use our carpark as a meeting place" if they say that, and you guys turn up anyway they would quite possibly have cause to charge with trespass. it's a tough situation. I guess if you call and ask them, and they say no then at least you will know in advance and can organise another spot.

An alternative is to meet on the ground floor of the Westfields carpark (the big, ex council carpark?). In the far corner, as far opposite the Victor St entrance as possible.

The ground floor is relatively low car friendly, and in that corner there are fewer people parking as its really far away from shops. Being away from the exit, you generally won't be interfering with customers coming and going, so its less of a hassle for management.

Also, there's an open air carpark between Claude and Archer St across from the Westfields carpark. I don't know if it'll fit 50 cars, but it will fit quite a few. Its across the road from the police station though.

Ok people I have just spoken to Andrew at Chatswood Chase and everything is ok with us meeting there. To make sure, i ALSO spoke to the people that do the security there and they're aware that we'll be "taking over" the carpark on friday night. Once again, when you come in please do it in an orderly fashion as we DO NOT want any problems with ANYONE

Thank you.

That's awesome. Thanks Mars..

Wow.. proper organisation and stuff.

I'll call Lucky and Peps and let them know we'll be there as well

nice work mate :thumbsup: I'm surprised they are cool with it. but that is a great result. it means the likelyhood of hassles has just reduced to practically nothing. providing all attendees behave themselves of course...

I will remind everyone that trying to set of your BOVS, or gate, or generally just trying to fang in the carpark is not considered cool by anyone. yes we all know how loud and manly your car sounds in an underground carpark, but keep the speed below 10kmh and the rpm below 2500 and everyone is a winner. :thumbsup:

It's either Baron or Adam.. They do it to me all the time :thumbsup:

lol, it was adam. I think maybe he doesn't remember about how offical sau is and was just trying to raise the level on spelling on the forum. but we all know this really is offical. :thumbsup: no doubt.

    • The HG high flow is excellent, and costs about the $$ you're talking about. But it, and probably every other highflow, uses a diffeent core than the original turo, and the original Hitatchi core is quite long. So, I think it is inevitable that there is likely no such thing as a highflow that just "bolts on" with no other effort required. And the same is likely true for HG's outright replacement "bolt on" turbos (the ATR things). And the same is likely true for anything similar from elsewhere. I have no idea if the cheap Chinese/Taiwanese complete turbos from eBay/Temu/etc are as bolt on as they claim. I mean, they claim the bolt onto the NAs as well as the turbos, and we know that can't be "bolt on". But it wouldn't matter because I'm not buying a $169 4 psi turbo for anything other than a paddock basher.
    • Bummer...yeah i "need" something to "ease" up the work and for my driving it would be enough.    Iam counting the tune "without" turbo. I do not mean "cheap" like something from Temu around 200 USD, "Cheap" is something around 1000 USD? 
    • Starter motors used to use the weight of metal (magnets) to provide torque. Now they use (more) current instead. This. It's completely normal.
    • So thing that had me stumped, but I think is OK....is that when it was up in the air, in neutral I had it running to bleed to coolant while I put the wheels back on. I noticed the rears were turning (slowly) which I'd never seen before 20250928_163512.mp4     Because there had been an issue with clutch slip due to pedal adjustment on the dyno, I assumed there was still and issue so spent some quality time upside down under the dash adjusting the pedal....but no matter what I did the wheels still turned in neutral. Even disconnected the master cylinder to pedal rod and same. In despair, I even removed the clutch slave so there was no chance of any preload causing it.....still happened. So either: 1. Something is not right in the bellhousing, or 2. Its a thing sometimes with cold, thick gearbox oil Internet says it might be 2, I hope so!
    • OK, few more things sorted and it is ready for a shakedown on 10-Oct, with one weird thing. Changed the run in oil and filter for the good stuff. 8l came out, about 8.5 went in with filter so that looks all good. Changed the starter (again), this time for a brand new one, works good. Interesting that the Taaaarks one is shorter than factory but spins harder, I guess electronics have moved on a little in the last 30 years. Will be nice to have a bit of extra space under there. Put the timing cover back on, and noted where the cam gears were set as a record.  Will need to double check the timing but it is pretty close. Also put the coil pack cover and intake snorkel back on. Exhaust Inlet Changed the water out for coolant, bled up nicely. Removed the rear brake pads (well worn factory sumitomo ones!), gave the hardware a good clean and reassembled. I've put bendix XP on the back again because the price is excellent at $150 a set and they worked well on the V37. Front pads have plenty so no issue there
