What happened to all the Melbourne cruises?


Recommended Posts

I wouldn't mind helping in putting a map together, or printing them, or helping out in any way I can... Which leads to the question, if someone like myself draws up a map, who can we forward it to to make it an official event and such? Is there a method to getting these things to happen?

Looking at the events section helps.

Indeed i am SLYWPN... i've got a few maps now from various other clubs and am re-doing them as well as planning some new ones :D

I just need a little time! Plus the weather sucks at the moment :shake:

You can do it yourself, or send it to me to get the rabble in order if you want.

Things are currently changing around here in the next 1-2 months so after that (when membership comes in) it will be only a few people doing OFFICIAL meets and everyone attending if you get what i mean.

If you dont get it... all in due time (quite soon) there is a metting in the coming days about it all. And we'll get back to poeple ASAP.

too many cops around lately now.... the fun is slowing down

Bah... rubbish. SAU have never had a problem with police presence or anything.

We dont behave like idiots and hence, when on meets we are respected for that and left to our business.

Last crusie we went through a Booze bus even, and there were comments on how good it looked.

So we are gonna be the premier Crusie Group soon in Melb, well known and respected (well i hope so)

Does that clarify a few things?

:D

thanks again gordo!

mmm yueah, another thing. With all the membership stuff in pipeline, there might be one more cruise before all that,or a meet to discuss.

so everyone check the events section every few days. You dont wanna miss out on it all.

cheers.

    • Well, yes, every CU on the bus is available via the Consult port, but whether the scanner you are using is capable of talking to the TCU, the ABS/TCS modules, etc etc, is what is at question here. Many of them are only for engine codes. So, if you have one of those, you won't know if the ABS is having a bitch.
    • That's now. R chassis Skylines come from a time when the tolerance in the ADRs was a bit more....slack. My car, on 235/35-17, which is damn near the exact same size as the original 205/55-16, is pretty much bang on correct indicated speed across the whole legal range. That's demonstrated with constant speed run over 5km, and GPS speed. It's just the luck of the draw. My particular speedo head has to be the thing that is "calibrated" that way, because everything else (the diff ratio, the gearbox and the speedo drive**) are all same same as most other Skylines. **OK, so the speedo drive is a Navara unit to drive the R32's cable, not the electronic unit than an R33/4 would normally have with teh same gear on it. Otherwise, I applaud your OCD tendencies, and I would do the same if I needed to.
    • Not too sure, I believe the Nissan consult port does everything? Also just filled up the reservoir to full and the light is still on. The float seems to move up and down fine.
    • The speedo's can be very conservative, when my Mazda NC MX5 speedo is showing 118kph, the GPS, and a calibrated radar.... cop mate.....hits me at around 110kph +/- 1 or 2 kph, and that is on a 215/45 17, stock tyres size is 205/45 17 as well, so weirdly conservative with stock tyre size When my Commodore speedo red 116kph GPS had me at 110kph on 255/40 17, so again conservative Google says manufacturers need to set the speedo from 4 to 10% slower than actual road speed.....for safety.....and compliance  After doing some offset and clearance measurements to see what can fit the NC on 17x8 +40, without guard rolling or rubbing anything at my current ride height, I've decided that when my tyres are toast, I'm going to fit 225/45 17 and see where that gets me IRT actual speed of my speedo and GPS/radar From the online calculator I should be still be doing around 5kph under an actual 110kph when the speedo is showing 110kph My ADHD requires that when I'm doing 110kph on the speedo, that the actual road speed is actually really close to that, and not alot slower And going from 205 to 225 still keeps the car within the %/mm allowable in the NSW vehicle rules and regulations, which is nice, as long as I'm looking at the latest version that is.....LOL https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-13.464-Light-vehicle-modifications-Vehicle-Standards-Information-No-6-November-2013.pdf
    • Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.
