Awwe .. glad there were some pictures of the commonwhore .. cause I rocked up just after it happened - :P male nav that takes longer to get ready than me ....

But great cruize Melski!! was a good turn out! You did a good job! ;) a little action to start off the night ... kept us guessing with the left/right thing (always good to throw a little suspense into the mix) - no trouble from the coppa who couldn't figure out how to get into the car park (har har)... Had a good night!

good to meet some of you guys n' girls too! ... next time I'll be in my skyline and not the soarer :laughing-smiley-014:

Yay I'm so glad it went well and everyone had fun. Sorry about the dyslexic right/left thing, was just testing ya's ;) lol yay I had a ball thanks everyone for the support, you guys were great!!

Scott post up the rest of the pics !!!

hahaha oh the best cruise ive been on in a long time haha, and yeah of course that guy had it comin in his ss, he's bout a foot an a half shorter than anyone else an his seat was all the way back so he would have had about 1/3 of the required vision an too much arm length needed to grab the wheel so there was almost nothin he coulda done

Ups to you mel for a delightful cruise, nice an lengthy with a variety of scenic stops, cant wait for the next!

Thanks Nath!! Man it was exhausting and stressful enough planning this cruise my mouth got me in so much trouble bagging out other cruises lol :P so I was sh!t scared of coming on here today hahaha so I think it'll be a while before I plan another lol

See Scott....I'm not all talk :)

man that whole incident was too funni......was a good cruise btw

i got abit worried wen mel asked me for 5 bux wen she gave me a map tho :S

Yeah man you never coughed that $5 up either hahahahah

I feel sory for all the people that were stuck behind me lol. I would have went faster if i could! ;)

Good cruise anyways

Mate, your car is mint!! I was with you from Freo to Riverton. Nice car.

hey people

was good to meet some of you at the beginning, I ran like a chicken after that dood hit the pole I was expecting a considerable amount of unwanted attention to arrive very shortly after he did that and assume we were part of it all and give us a hard time.

After working like a biatch to get the front bar off to refit the hose and make it down there for 8.30 I was spewin when that tool did that.

Hopefully next time ill actually go on the cruise!

Pussy. :D

There were still no cops by the time everyone filed out of the carpark.

We didn't see any cops by the time we had left. When I hit a pole in my bunky the pole snapped on half and blocked three lanes of traffic and took out another car and the cops took an hour and a half to show up so it's not surprising they didn't show for that twat!

I might be planning another cruise around Marchish I'm thinkin :D

    • OK, Step 3, if you need to remove the valve body, either to replace it, the TCM, or to do a more complete drain.  First, you need to disconnect the TCM input wires, they are about half way up the transmission on the drivers side. One plug and the wires are out of the way, but there is also a spring clip that stops the socket from sliding back into the transmission. On my car the spring clip was easy to get, but the socket was really stuck in the o-ring of the transmission housing and took some.....persuasion. You can see both the plug to remove (first) and the spring clip (second) in this pic Incidentally, right next to the plug, you can see where the casting has allowance for a dispstick/filler which Nissan decided not to provide. there is a cap held on with a 6mm head bolt that you can remove to overfill it (AMS recommend a 1.5l overfill). Final step before the big mess, remove the speed sensor that is clipped to the valve body at the rear of the box.  Then removal of the Valve Body. For this the USDM Q50 workshop manual has a critical diagram: There are a billion bolts visible. Almost all of them do not need to be removed, just the 14 shown on the diagram. Even so, I both removed one extra, and didn't check which length bolt came from which location (more on that later....). Again it is worth undoing the 4 corners first, but leaving them a couple of turns in to hold the unit up....gravity is not your friend here and trans oil will be going everywhere. Once the corners are loose but still in remove all the other 10 bolts, then hold the valve body up with 1 hand while removing the final 4. Then, everything just comes free easily, or like in my case you start swearing because that plug is stuck in the casing. Done, the valve body and TCM are out
    • OK, so if you are either going for the bigger fluid change or are changing the valve body which includes the Transmission Control Module (TCM), first you should have both a new gasket 31397-1XJ0A and a torque wrench that can work down to 8Nm (very low, probably a 1/4 drive one). You can probably get by without either, but I really didn't want to pull it all apart together due to a leak. First, you now need that big oil pan. The transmission pan is 450 long x 350 wide, and it will probably leak on all sides, so get ready for a mess. There are 24x 6mm headed bolts holding the pan on. I undid the 2 rear corners, then screwed those bolts back in a couple of turns to let the pan go low at that end, then removed all the middle bolts on each side. Then, undo the front corner bolts slowly while holding the pan up, and 80% of the fluid will head out the rear. From there, remove the remaining bolts and the pan is off. You can see it is still dripping oil absolutely everywhere...it dripped all night.... I got another couple of litres when I removed the pan, and then another few when I removed the valve body - all up another 4l on top of the 3 already dropped in step 1.
    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
