Something along the lines of the "old fashioned" cruises we used to do, when I first got into cars.

A cruise where we are actually cruising, showing our cars off, not flying down the freeway at 110 or above try to see who can get there fastest!!

The map is now set, we will be meeting at Burswood, Burswood Carpark, Closest to Gt Eastern Hwy, at 10:30am for an 11:00am departure.

Please try to arrive early rather than late..... We will not be waiting around for stragglers.

The map will now take us through the South of the river, Very scenic cruise, to Freo, then up to Claremont, Bold park, Subiaco and into Kings Park, Synergy Parkland for a BBQ / picnic, (BYO). I think that we will likely arrive at about 1-2pm.

Anyone who is bringing children will love this area. (Great for big kids too!).

We may still be doing a (simple) quiz and prizes.

Can we please have a show of hands, to see how many maps are required etc.

There will be at least 3 photo opportunities, so remember to bring your camera.

:pwned: Oh well....Anzac day might be good, but I think that Kings Park might end up rather busy....of course we could pretend we are driving Tanks, (all the Skyline owners think we are anyway!!).

Maybe the 27th might be the best day? (Which is the day that you picked, Kristie, I just realised).... the Sunday.

I'll start working on the map....

I think that I'll try to make a bit of everything.

All input welcome.

Well, as much as I would love to come and dish teh chop on all the land barges :pwned:, I think me and Teh Pulsar Fury are going to gracefully retract from the cruising scene from here on.

Have fun everyone.

why is that? has someone upset you? :P

Not at all (sif take anything serious on here anyway)

Just that I would feel a little silly trying to blend in with all the lumbering monstrosities :laugh:

dale i think you should come....it would be good :laugh: and its always a good conversation when your around??? bring the pulsar or bum a lift im sure plenty will offer :P

John i thought the Sunday 27th of April...but as its the long weekend people might go away??? i actually like driving through kingspark..but it can get a bit messy for those who might get lost

You entering that in your stagea? I think you need to introduce yourself, and show us your wagon. :laugh:

Nothing seirous in the car yet, but there r plans.:P Im actauly helping run the comp. If 626's and Mr2's are aloud on the cruze, i might be able to drag a couple niceish anger installs down

Nothin against either cars, but (at this stage anyway) I think that we'd like to keep to Stagea's. We don't get together very often.

We shouldn't get too many lost....) I hope!

So I am intending to make Kings Park a stop.

not being the social co-ordinator in the house I have NFI what we are doing on either of those dates.

I am pretty sure we will come if we can make it - so yeah I think you got 2 recruits here if things work out.

im definitely in as i miss out on ahg day (damn c-red)

dale: ill pick you up to come along if you want you can play xbox on the drive if you want or just kick back and be deafened by the stereo let us know if interested

I'll be there - sounds like fun.

I do have to say that i am yet to go on a stagea cruise that has been anything but a slow cruise. Even driving 10km/hr under the limit i still managed to be at the front on the last one. All good, but i think the last couple of cruises have been anything but a 'race'.

    • sold listed as a Tomei LSD 1.5 Way For 1998+ Nissan Skyline ER34 25GT RB25DE w/Open R200 https://www.ebay.com/itm/174006114594?campid=5338967980&mkevt=1&mkcid=1&toolid=10050&customid=&mkrid=711-53200-19255-0&loc_physical_ms=108689&loc_interest_ms=&campid=5338967980&mkevt=1&mkcid=1&toolid=10050&customid=71883f2ccc571356e0a757bc7adfdde2&mkrid=710-53481-19255-0&loc_physical_ms=108689&loc_interest_ms= it went in like butter all gears, alignment, back lash etc, rotation and clearances correct, and if rolling all rotates smooth and free when coasting down road , clutch in or out over 10 mph smooth... its the binding, clunking and jerking from a stop that is most concerning, also seems like its going to tear the tires off in 10 miles of normal road driving. 
    • What 1.5 way? There's no such thing really as a 1.5 way, just different ways of explaining 2 ways with different ramp rates. HOWEVER. In any driving in a straight line your 1.5 or 2 or 1.7 way should have no clunking at all. With the clutch fully depressed the diff should be silent (unless it's welded but I'm assuming it's not). Something aint right here.
    • Clutch is a spec brand, new clutch system,( PP, flywheel, friction disc, etc. pull type) installed 100 miles ago, with no problems.
    • looking for some help and maybe some insight on others experience with a new LSD. R34 GT ran and drove beautifully, but always alot of grip loss due to the open R200 rear end, so I just installed a new 1.5 LSD way into the stock open R200 for a ER34. Simple. Everything seemed right. I test drove for the first time this weekend. as I started to back out the garage the first time slowly with tires straight it sounded and felt like I had a loose or half disconnected drive shaft...that was clucking around loose and shaking entire vehicle, and making it feel like the trans clutch was spontaneously slipping then grabbing very roughly while just letting out pedal slowly. I backed it out went to pull forward with the same noise, shake and slip grab feeling with hesitation, I turned the tires to back out more and then pulled ahead some same thing but worst because of added wheel resistance (which that I expected) puzzled … pulling it back in checking everything over and finding nothing wrong, I tried it the next day. same thing, couldn’t believe how it shook everything again making a terrible noise and making it feel like the trans clutch was slipping and grabbing, but I got it out of garage into the driveway, got it straight, drove forward and then reveres a few times in a straight line everything shaking , causing what felt like clutch slip and grab every time, sounded like right behind front driver tire and I could feel it in the floor board with my feet,... worst right when beginning to let clutch pedal out to engage slightly, shuttering and sounding terrible along the way…I managed to slowly get down the road, babying it the whole way, once I was rolling (out of 1st) seemed to be better and between shifts, then clutch felt closer to normal…not slip/ grab etc., but back down to any stop, straight road or turning, same thing. Made no difference if all tires were straight or if I was turning. All other gauge read out correct. with in 2 miles as planned I reached the empty parking lot and performed the break in procedure that came with lsd, essentially to drive in a figure 8 a bunch.  Did this, binding chattering, and shaking the car the whole way. I drove it back home seemed somewhat normal once I was in straight line and past 10 mph or so, and I know it will “bind” on corners and cause some tires squeal when turning especially from a stop, but when I begin to move it still causes what feels like the trans clutch to slip and jerk badly as well as shaking the entire car, and sounds terrible, that I didn’t expect. I used the fluid they supplied with LSD kit and did the breaking, planning to change fluid as they suggest after breaking, but wondering will it get smoother or less aggressive with use? maybe a 1.5 is just too aggressive for normal road driving?   I have a LSD that I put in my 71 cuda when I restored it, with amazing smooth , quite yet effective results. Different style LSD but that ones a joy to drive. maybe expecting too much from this R200?
