I think we should all take our turbo's off when we go on cruises so there is no temptation to drive our cars as they should be driven. Shame on us all....

The problem isn't in people driving the cars as they should be driven. The problem is people driving them how they shouldn't be driven. And the biggest problem is that so many people don't know the difference between the two because they don't know either the limit of their own driving ability or their cars performance ability.

Yeah... AT A TRACKDAY NOT A PUBLIC ROAD

Winton Trackday on 25th November was a good one thank you Ash :)

During the previous GOR cruise, there were already a few drivers who drove dangerously. Cutting into traffic from the opposite direction at corners.

Suggestions can be:

1) Warnings sent out to the respective drivers which gone out of hand

2) A briefing about Do's and Don'ts before the cruise commences.

Well I would not consider any of that example to contain any wrong behavior!

All cars were safely on their own side of the road and none went over the centreline coming around the corner at a reasonable speed.

The only issue was the "f" word when you thought some were going to pull in and stop! :nyaanyaa:

To be honest I have avoided some of these runs because I know sometimes my adrenelin can get going and thats when stuff happens if its going to happen.

But thats because I have not done to many DECA's or Track days for a while to get it out of my system and get to know my and the cars abilities better.

The people on this run that let their head go a bit will realise who they are and should say to themselves..

-I WILL JOIN SAU and get my head together by doing it on a racetrack under safe controlled conditions! (and have the most fun in a Skyline with your pants on!)

How about it Daniel, and you to Adam!

Is this aimed at me? If it is, I'm not even 18 yet! :spank: I'll be getting my licence mid January (hopefully pass) so will be signing up soon. Don't worry. If it wasn't aimed at me then..... my bad. :P

im actually really looking forward to joining SAU and meeting new people and going on the official cruises. i think no matter what there is always somebody that doesn't think and will do something silly and thats because they are probably running on adrenaline. i think every car should have classical music playing in there car you will be too calm and relaxed to to do anything stupid :rofl: . my car probably won't fit in with all you guys and girls cause mine is completly stock and i think that is a good enough excuse to fix it up a bit, woohoo time to spend some money!!

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
