R34 10th Anniversary Charity Cruise N Show N Shine


Recommended Posts

I'm pretty easy with that. Anyone able to recommend me a good GPS? Used to live in the West so shouldn't be too hard for me to find, however I really should get a GPS before doing this trip lol.

If you can get to the Sydney International Regatta Centre at Penrith Chris, the cruise will only entail 3 intersection turns up to Mt Wilson.

Pls bring your own food and water guys; because the little old ladies at the cafe at Mt Wilson will get heart attacks at all the business. lmao

Is there somewhere near the meet point where we can tidy up our cars a little? I'm imagining there's going to be some bugs and bits after the drive up!

Is Mt Wilson far from anywhere else where food is available?

Hi Kat,

Both inside the Regatta Centre (next to toilet blocks) and at Mt Wilson (further along The Avenue) at the Fire Stn and toilet blocks, I'm sure there's some taps. I guess the Central Coast guys will have the same trouble with bugs. I'll try and bring Bug Remover spray.

Because I'm organising, I'll be bringing sandwiches & bananas & H2O. But I know some ppl will go to the cafe...

Or better still, that cafe called the Chimney Cottage has the Phone # 02-47562022 and ask for Margaret to make up a couple of sandwiches for you to pick up.

Hope that helps!

Cheers, Terry

Is there a bbq near where we're ending up?

Bring a lightweight BBQ if you like and there's room at the Picnic Area on Mt Irvine Rd ie our final location. It's also where Sensei Hans (if not wet/humid/moist) will be doing his display/demo Kat.

LOL bring a bbq? I can barely fit an esky in my boot hun :P

Considering I'm leaving Canberra in the wee hours I'm looking for easy but not too boring lunch ideas. I guess that covers that there's no established BBQ area up there.

I do believe there is. I mean I saw ppl BBQing but I didn't think to notice if it was their own or an on-site version. And I'd hate to think of good meat going to waste.

Actually, I'll ask the other organisers that were also surveiling the place. Get back to you!

hey you guys :)

i'm one of the organisers as well.. i believe when we went to mt wilson on sunday with Terry there were people putting on a BBQ? i.e 2 public bbq hut thinggos lol

.. tried looking on google maps but it doesnt go that far into mt irvine road *sigh*

<proposed idea: bring meat if you want, if there's no bbq or it doesnt work.. have it for dinner lol>

Aren't you one of the ACT people too :/ lol. Hopefully it doesn't rain the next few days...

I must say I'm really looking forward to this!!!

Any ACTers that we can twist the arms of for a trip up? Looks like we still have an R32 convoy at this stage!

Hope this rain pisses off so I can clean my car!

    • 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. 🤞
