I knew i was in trouble when I couldnt see anyone infront of me ;) , Had a good day though, it was nice at the beach where all the lost boys ended up, got stuck behind some slow traffic in the nasho coming home but still managed a bit of fun, looking forward to the next cruise but maybe next time a destination and some halt spots along the way orginised prior to the day would be sweet as some of us got caught behind traffic and lost the leading packet, all in all good day.

Thanks.

PS, Im willing to help do a route card if anyone is interested in it, i do them at work for our road moves.

Well, I only intended on taking my girls and dog for a walkat the gong... Dont know how I ended up at Robertson pie shop. LOL.

Girls really enjoy the drive up and down the windy roads. Look forward to cruising with you guys from the starting point next time.

Not a bad idea to have planned halts for all to catchup during cruise.

Cheers

Hey mate, I actually thought the run through the national park (I was behind you) - was awesome! Mind you, that's the first time I've been through there. I rekon next time the cruise is simply up and back that stretch of road!

My mates and I had a great day, and enjoyed the drive. Thanks everyone.

I need to edit the number plates out of these photos and I'll post em up. There is some beauties in the batch :>

Besides the fact we fell behind and the leader of our group didnt go up mt kiera, (never follow a suba ;)) we still had a good time.

I quite enjoyed my first time out driving with you all..

got some pics and some videos (130 meg a vid) so i might have to shrink them and host the 1 or 2 good ones..

camera died so i couldnt film going up mt kiera on the way home..

Will up a few pics later tonight.

Thanks to Gemma for organising it all..

Next time im going in the lead pack so we dont get lost.

Was a good day even though i was one of the guys at the back that got a bit lost but in all was a good day out, a couple of us went up Mt Kiera on the way home to make up for missing it on the way there, good fun.

mic0r, The nasho run is bumpy but fun if you can avoid slow traffic or slow down and leave a good gap between you and them so you can enter the corners at a good speed, its not to bad but have you done the Putty RD or the Bell Line because if you liked the nasho you will love those runs, just be sure to stick to the speed limit as the police love them too, and make sure you know where you can get PULP as not all servos have got it.

Safety tip; Watch the corners because sometimes cars and bikes venture into your lane, mainly the 25 and 35kph signposted corners.

I wouldnt say it was you cause he was in front of ya, Though the 3 of us in 34's kinda looked at mt kiera rd thinking..

Isnt that it?? well the others arent goin that way so i dont wanna get lost.

Just need to pay attention more next time and read where we are supposed to be going haha.

I thought we were going to pull over and group up again on picton rd?

    • Yeah I've had too many issues with knock off's on the BMW's. I don't want to do a job twice or more because the parts are shit.
    • I read this and thought "ah! I will do this scissor jack on the tow point thing!" I just use my floor/low profile/costco jack and lift the car up by the tow hook itself, then slide jack stands under. Never thought about using scissor into floor jack combo :p
    • Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!    
    • So, I'm back with bad news. There's no jack long enough on this planet that will reach the front subframe. If by some chance there is, it would weigh 200lb's.  I purchased a long reach jack... The damn thing weighted 120lb's and was massive. Didn't even come close, was still short at least a foot. It was a pain, but I brought it back. Next I decided HA! No problem, I'll get an Extra long reach jack. Well, I couldn't lift the box... It must have weighed 160LB's and luckily there was an open box in store. I took measurement and was still nowhere close.  Sadly I've lost hope and have accepted defeat. 
    • Thanks for that tip, niZmO_Man. I think the battery is OK. It's quite a new one, but I'll check. Last time I needed a new battery, everything electronic was fine, except that there wasn't enough current to turn over the starter. I decided to order one of the partial AV system translation CDs from Car Audio Workshop in NZ. That might have some effect, or help me diagnose the date problem. 🤞
