Have you got anything in writing from the authorities stating that no cars will be defected if they are part of your event? Some mates and I might be keen on going, but not if it turns into a full on defect station like some other events in the past.

um i really dont think you would be able to get something like that....they aren't exactly going to say "yes we will let illegally modified vehicles drive on public roads because its for a good cause"

So I guess the organizer should change the event details then - I'd hate for people to bring their pride and joys to the event only to have their asses reamed.

I figured as much though, no such arrangement could possibly be reached as you are not putting on a stationary show - you are driving on a public road.

Gee... very encouraging... I guess if I come I should keep on cruising then.

Promogirlz Promotions has been working on getting this event right for months, it is planned and well thought out!

AS THE ORGANISER of this event - i expect all vehicles to be on their best behaviour, the local police have never given me any problems with my Skyline.

But obviously ppl need to be aware that it only takes one person to ruin it for everyone else as long as no one drives recklessly i dont see why there would be any issues as the Local Police and all organisations know all about it.

This is not Eastern Creek Dragway, I encourage you and your mates to come as this is going to be a FABULOUS DAY.

Off that subject and onto something else i have driven the route today to ensure that the road has no major damage etc

I would like to report that

a. There are no potholes the road has actually just been resealed recently

b. The Route is extremely scenic and beautiful :D)

c. It takes just over an hour for the round trip

Please find the Map below

Same as every other organised charity event that has happened lately.

The only time a charity event like this went bad was AFTER the event had finished...

A couple of years ago Hot4s arranged a cruise up to the Central Coast, and the cops set up a massive defect station at the Gosford turn-off. There was a big whinge about it on car forums, since the cops had said (or the organisers had said the cops had said) that they wouldn't be defecting people.

Of course, the idiots blocking off the F3 in the afternoon for rolling runs on the way home means it was probably pre-emptively deserved.

I was a definite maybe for this, but unfortunately it's on the same day as the V35 cruise. :D

I'll be there in spirit. If there's one thing I believe we should be taking care of in this world, its boobs.

Promogirlz Promotions and Models is holding a Car Cruise Charity Day “Cruise for Christine” on the 30th of November to raise money for the Breast Cancer Foundation.

The cruise for Breast Cancer Awareness is on Sunday the 30th of October 2008 and starting at The Mean Fiddler.

The cost is still $10 per car. Open to all makes and model cars, bikes etc.

If you are worried about going on the cruise you dont have to partake in it. You can come for the car show in the morning and after lunch.

Its about raising money for a good cause.

Regards

no probs, just cos u mentioned 2 different dates in ur above post...do we have an idea on how many cars are attending?

We are expecting over 50 cars hoping for about 200 but as you know with these things - ppl decide in the morning, we are praying the weather will behave as well as this will obviously impact the turnout.

This Cruise is a little diff from other events so im hoping for a terrific turnout.

Promogirlz Promotions and Models is a new Company in the Northwest providing models for Hot 4's, Fusion Electronics, The Mean Fiddler, Unseen TV we have a Silver Nissan Skyline that we use to get from a - b and will also be interested in talking to ppl on the day about doing a track run in the new year.

If anyone wants any further info don't hesitate to ask.

      Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.

      Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
