hey guys...

after exams i'm sure most you guys (the one's doing exams) would want to ease yourself with possibly a nice, coastal, afternoon cruise with lunch or something..?

now for the peeps not doing exams, possibly come with and meet people you haven't met before or catch up with old buddies...

anyway, the reason i'm posting up this thread is just as an expression of interest;

WHO wants to go

WHERE would people want to go

WHEN would everyone want to go...

please just post up your ideas here, moderators i would like as many people as possible to spot this thread and only move it into the 'EVENTS' area once we have decided on a specific date to hold the event...

oh yeah, would people want to go for a small lunch to catch up on and then go for the cruise, NOR to SOR or vice versa so people can leave if they know where the cruise is going or whatever...

AND if anybody has ran an awesome cruise lately and if they have ideas on a possible map etc...

something to think about for everyone, no restriction to who wants to come but i would like to keep it as an SAU cruise, if you have good friends with performance cars as well they are more than welcome to come... just want to keep the standards of the possible to cruise to a high...

don't really want any sh*tters to represent an SAU spec cruise...

all comments welcome, but i wouldn't appreciate any offensive/sh*tty comments as i'm sure a few people here would agree with me...

please, it's just a suggestion and would love to hear from you all, cheers,

Andrew :)

thanks Dan, my apologies...

Murdoch i have no idea when they finish, my last one is on the 11th...

we'll make it late June then?

come on people keep the ideas coming!

oh yeah, i will be running the legs before the cruise is official, but just want route ideas is all... come on guys!

oh Vincent, will try to cater for your car as well, haven't seen your ride since a few months ago, you never come out ever

LOL! yeah... cars been off the road as i blew a headgasket. now im having trouble sourcing a gasket set as theres no VRS in AUS...

So waiting for nissan to get it for me. Since the heads off. Been fixing up other things on the car.

But hopefully i can get it out within 2 weeks time. Otherwise maybe i can hitch a ride with you Andrew... :)

Im up for this for sure~!

Andrew i finish on the 16th of June... so if you want me and u (and a few other guys if they want) can get together and run a practice cruise to get some good ideas?

You got my number so just give me a buzz!

awesome responses guys and i'm sure to let you guys all know how it's going to go..

if some of you are not busy after exams and free before the cruise we'll do a practice run together..

will be good, so dates and places?

oh yeah Vincent, don't worry man if your car is not ready to can take my car for a few legs if you want, umm... just don't crash it please haha

and Rhys, i know your timetable too well, not being able to lend me and Leo a torch at 12pm isn't good enough hahaha kidding :thumbsup:

weak Kelvin... :)

we'll make the practice run before, then we'll do the proper one after... so Kelvin and all the other peeps that need extra time can come no problems

it doesn't have to be so soon after exams, we'll cater for everyone, also gives us time to make a good cruise too

(better than a dinner cruise without a map right?) :)

Andrew, I had work at 5:30 the next morning!! I really wanted to come over and help, but my commonsense kicked in... for once... wtf?

I'm up for a practice run if you want, let me know the dates and I'll book off work so I can come. Hopefully I can convince Tara to come on this one :D

    • @Murray_Calavera  If I were an expert I wouldn't be in here looking for assistance.  I am extremely computer literate, have above average understanding on how things should be working and how they should tie together.  If I need to go to a professional tuner so be it, but I'd much rather learn and do things myself even if it means looking for some guidance along the way and blowing up a few engines. @GTSBoy  I was hoping it would be as simple as a large vacuum leak somewhere but I'm unable to find anything, all lines seem to be well capped or going where they need to be, and when removed there is vacuum felt on the tube.  It would be odd for the Haltech built in MAP to be faulty, the GTT tune I imported had it enabled from the start, I incorrectly assumed it was reading a signal from the stock MAP, but that doesn't exist.  After running a vacuum hose to the ECU the signal doesn't change more than 0.2 in either direction.   I'll probably upload a video of my settings tomorrow, as it stands I'm able to daily drive, but getting stuttering when giving it gas from idle, so pulling away from lights is a slow process of revving it up and feathering the clutch until its moving, then it will accelerate fine.  It sounds like I need to get to the bottom of the manifold pressure issue, but the ignition timing section is most intimidating to me and will probably let a pro do that part.  Tomorrow I'll try a different vacuum line to T off of, with any luck I selected one that was already bypassed during the DBW swap. @feartherb26  I do have +T in the works but wanted to wait until Spring to start with that swap since this is my good winter AWD vehicle.  When removing the butterfly, did it leave a bunch of holes in the manifold that you needed to plug?  I thought about removing it but assumed it would be a mess.   I notice no difference when capping the vacuum line to it or letting it do its thing.  This whole thing has convinced me to just get a forward facing manifold when the time comes though.
    • Update: tested my spark plugs that are supposed to be 5ohms with a 10% deviation and one gave me a 0 ohms reading and the rest were 3.9ohm<, so one bad and the others on their way out.
    • 9" wheels are a little too wide for a RWD 32. They can fit. People have put R33 GTR wheels on 32s for years and years. But they are a very tight squeeze. This has been known for about 30 years. As I said - there is no difference between a 17 and an 18 in terms of what will fit. The rolling diameter needs to stay about the same as stock - not very much larger. If you increase that, you will start to have problems. If you increae rolling diamater at the same time as yo increase width, you will have problems earlier. as 9" wheels are pushing the boundaries already, you would need to be careful with tyre choice. I would put 8.5s on the front of mine, but would expect problems with 9s.

    • Diagnostic flow for a code 21 says check signal at the ECU pins, on a voltmeter of some kind it should read 0.1V at idle, 0.12V cranking, 0.15-0.25V at 2000 rpm. Check each coil such that +1, -3 is infinite or very high resistance, -3, +2 should do the same. (-1, +3), (+3, -2), (+1, -2), and (-1, +2) should all be somewhere between 0 ohms and high resistance. If you trace the path from the coil pin all the way back to the ECU in the diagram the resistance you measure at the coil vs connected to the harness should be pretty much the same.
