Awesome cruise guys. Thanks wayne for organising it, the cruise notes were top notch, must have taken you ages to plan this properly. Cheers.

That is something that i will take away with me today - that SAU-Vic is more than just a bunch of hoons and wanna be racers. (AHEM 180sx)

Always has and always will be mate :)

Spewing i missed this one... Will probably miss the next one or two cruises till work dies down in Aug or so ... snow as well... fark :P

Keep the pics coming so i have plenty to dream about. Twisty roads, white backdrop, magic!!!

any time mate.... wtf was with that road mang? 1 lane, up a hill and round a corner... srsly who builds a road like that? lol

Thanks again Wayne for an awesome cruise, you really went to quite a bit of effort to plan it all out and I'm sure everyone will agree that we had an awesome time!

The weather was awesome, not a drop in sight, and the drive back in particular was really fun. Those big, fast sweeping corners one after the next around Marysville were just spectacular and I started to remember again why I bought a Skyline... it's been way too long since I've been on a proper cruise :banana:

Sorry to whoever was behind me whenever I really put my foot into it, hope all those carbon fragments come out of your car - LOL. I need to attend to my coilpacks (again) and maybe get my tune checked.

Thanks Ash for all the awesome photos & coming shotgun with me too.

Was quite tired by the end of it, but can't wait for the next one!

Cheers mate

Glad you liked it.

I will do the same kind of thing for the Hanging Rock Cruise.

again thanks wayne i agree great cruise great day i didnt realise you lived in narre wayne so if you need a lift back next time for any reason you have another option cause im also in narre

it was such a good turnout i think because of the whole Email thing i wouldnt have known about it if i didnt check my

email's everyday

put me down for the hanging rock cruise too

Also :) who are the boys who got me in trouble with my mechanic Rob at sabbadin? lol

aparently everyone was telling him that i was giving it hell???

i didnt even rev my car above 5000 cause it wasnt tuned completely yet

i may have taken corner's fast but thats what sports cars are for right?

but anyway there is some video footage im told so id like too see it

Pm me with the clip dude i wanna see or even txt it via phone too me :P

Keep the pics coming so i have plenty to dream about. Twisty roads, white backdrop, magic!!!

The saving grace the (lucky?) few of us got with the detour. It was great for me, I hadn't seen snow since 2000 or so. I think the only snow everybody else would have seen was on the side of the road toward the end of the Reefton.

Was a nice day overall though, thanks for making it happen Wayne and everybody else.

Excellent cruise Wayne.

Sorry to hear about the 180sx and the 2 skylines, I was a little behind you so I didn't see it but saw when you were pulled over, and heard it on the CB. The damage didn't look too bad but didn't get a good look.

Looking forward to the next one, hopefully I'll try and meet some more people next time :D

    • What are we supposed to be seeing in the photo of the steering angle sensor? The outer housing doesn't turn, right? All the action is on the inside. The real test here is whether or not your car has had the steering put back together by a butcher. When the steering is centred (and we're not caring about the wheel too much here, we're talking about the front wheels, parallel, facing front) then you should have an absolutely even number of turns from centre to left lock and centre to right lock. If there is any difference at all then perhaps the thing has been put back together wrongly, either the steering wheel put on one spline (or more!) off, and the alignment bodged to straighteb the wheel, or the opposite where something silly was done underneath and the wheel put back on crooked to compensate. Nut there isn't actually much evidence that you have such a problem anyway. It is something you can easily measure and test for to find out though. My money is still on the HICAS CU not driving the PS solenoid with the proper PWM signal required to lighten the load at lower speed. If it were me, I would be putting either a multimeter or oscilloscope onto the solenoid terminals and taking it for a drive, looking for the voltage to change. The PWM signal is 0v, 12V, 0V, 12v with ...obviously...modulated pulse width. You should see that as an average voltage somewhere between 0V and 12V, and it should vary with speed. An handheld oscilloscope would be the better tool for this, because they are definitely good enough but there's no telling if any cheap shit multimeter that people have lying around are good enough. You can also directly interfere with the solenoid. If you wire up a little voltage divider with variable resistor on it, and hook the PS solenoid direct to 12V through that, you can manually adjust the voltage to the solenoid and you should be able to make it go ligheter and heavier. If you cannot, then the problem is either the solenoid itself dead, or your description of the steering being "tight" (which I have just been assuming you mean "heavy") could be that you have a mechanical problem in the steering and there is heaps of resistance to movement.
    • Little update  I have shimmed the solenoid on the rack today following Keep it Reets video on YouTube. However my steering is still tight. I have this showing on Nisscan, my steering angle sensor was the closest to 0 degrees (I could get it to 0 degrees by small little tweaks, but the angle was way off centre? I can't figure this out for the life of me. I get no faults through Nisscan. 
    • The BES920 is like the Toyota Camrys of coffee machines. E61 group head is cool, however the time requirements for home use makes it less desirable. The Toyota Camry coffee machine runs twin boilers and also PID temp control, some say it produces coffees as good as an E61 group head machine.
    • And yes with a full tank it will hit limiter free revving or driving 6B6CDF6E-4094-426D-A9CB-6C553475FE36.mp4
    • One way of putting the fuel surge idea to rest, is that even when in neutral/clutch in or free revving it still has the same issue, it can’t even get to limiter (7800) so to me that says it can’t be g force, I’m not trying to argue I just want to find the f&$king issue 😡
