Question, going towards wilberforce road..

There were cops and ambo's heading back towards Fiddler.. did anything happen?

I didnt see any signs of any incidents on Windsor Road on the return leg but did see 2 police cars and an Ambo. I was about 500m from the lights in Windsor when they went past.

Probably a domestic in Pitt Town

MR XTC you should've followed the stagea and Doof man. There was about 5 or 6 of us that went for a nice drive up to the Halfway Roadhouse, rather than follow a convoy back the way we had just came :)

Very true.. but the other boys were a lil anxious to go because its their first major cruise so we headed off before you guys.. My mates ended up getting stranded with nearly empty tanks..

I sawy XTC 200 .. that thing was friggin' awesome!

All in all, it was great :D

FordyR31 are you the 2 blokes with one red R31 and there was a Black R31 aswell. I was the guy in the passenger seat of the White R34 lols. My driver kept getting pissed at people jumping in traffic lols :)

Yeh its always a good idea to hang back n wait until all teh shit clears....oh and cos we went a little further up putty road i almost ran out of fuel too!

My fuel consumption that day was actually BETTER then putting around the roads... I'll get about 100ks extra out of this tank I think :D

Good old 100km speed limit...

Also, my sunburn isn't peeling just yet, I'm really hoping it won't... I know it's just one arm, but I would like at least a BIT of a tan :)

Yeah my mate had the red one with black rims and a bit of mt druitt gloss on the roof, I had the black 2 door with the gold Works.. What do u mean about ppl jumping in traffic? I was getting pissed off where it turned into 1 lane just b4 windsor and every1 who wasnt on the cruise were going up the inside to get into the same line of traffic they would have been in anyway so did the old truckie trick and took up both lanes.. Unfortunately im not as wide as a truck.

bahahahahahahaa.. To tell you the truth.. we were in the second pack going up putty road..

There was an old school merc doing the cruise with air bags.. this thing was slammed to the floor, rear wheels were cambered to a point where only the tip of the tyre was riding the surface.. Ugly looking thing.. was doing 50km/h uphill in a 80 - 100 zone.. holding back about 30 cars and we were leading.. this dumb sh*t doesnt care and keeps going, doesnt move to the side to let us through, totally screwed the cruise .. by the time this idiot made it up the hill and there was an over taking lane, there was a 30 min difference between pack 1 and pack 2..

As soon as we lost the last car in pack 1, we knew we were screwed coz we knew we had to go through putty road and go all the way around, but where was too far ?

lols.

So yeah, we turned back because we were the only ones that wanted to continue through putty.. and going alone down there was a lil scary, then the SAU boys are flooring it past us im like GOD DAMMNIT!! Swearing at that bloody merc all the way back.. i want to conquer putty road!!

    • 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
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • 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.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
