this is for leaders/members of SAU:SA CLUB can we a have a sticky for cruises, now that there is a official club and all and maybe have once a month cruises?? instead of random every Friday night stuff?? (they are fine to continue but a larger group thats organized would be more worth it)..

So say it was a Sticky or so only leader of club can post?

-EXAMPLE-

SAU:SA Cruise 07/08/09 - Members will PM'd of meet point and time.

SAU:SA Cruise 11/09/09 - Members will PM'd of meet point and time.

and so on... just a thought

so why forse people to use the events section then? have the mods move all the events stuff to events, sticky the important events in that section... all thats going to happen is this will turn into another "events callander" that is already stickied that no one uses...

I think some of you newer lads should have a read of this thread http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Pr...l=kellie+cruise

It explains why no one is that keen on big cruises anymore, and also the fact that one member had his GTR crashed into on a cruise in the hills not long before this happend.

In light of events on a previous cruise (as per Chad's link), and I think I speak on behalf of the senior SAU-SA commitee members, Not Interested!!

You don't need SAU-SA's involvement to conduct your own regular cruises......that's not what the club is about. That's not to say SAU-SA won't ever organize a cruise but if it does, there'll more than likely be an event attached to it or finish up with maybe a BBQ lunch or for a charity event or after an event like the Riverland Show that also incorporates a cruise & BBQ.

These regular aimless cruises that continue through till 2 or 3 am around the CBD are inviting trouble and whether you like it or not, are (in the eyes of the law) associated with the likes of RCK etc.....whether you do a skid or not, you'll be tarnished with the same brush.

I don't know if she would hold another one....

While I was NOT an active member of the SAU community when that cruise went on, I have heard about it from various people and I don't know it was as bad as it was made out to be. Obviously Kellie doesnt come on here much anymore, which is unfortunate because I think she has something to bring to the SAU community - just look at the now formed SAU:SA, Kellie was the one who kicked things off (yes I know it's not the first time it was tried).

The Stagea cruise mentioned in that thread was my last Stag cruise (co-cordinated with the help of Adam also). 25 Stageas (a record), lots of mods, and zero defects. 9 months on and those Stageas are still around ... so much for the defect list theory. ;)

Personally, I believe its just Skyline owners jealous that Stageas got under the radar unharmed :P

+1

SAU:SA will more than likely attach cruises to a planned event.

Give it a few years and see how street legal your car is! Unless your saying that your not going to put any illegal mods on your car ever???

Some of us prefer to get couple of cars together and go for a blast in the hills, way more fun than driving around the suburbs dodging cops.

ROFLCOPTER with extra cheese!

Inline 6 is the funniest mofo alive, i actually wee'd my pants on that one.

actually.

On topic though, I'm keen for cruises all the time, I think people are making too big a deal out of all the defecting, crashing etc... we have skylines (and the like) there will be the occasional defect and (hopefully rarely) the occasional accident. If you own a skyline, stag and it's not bog stock then this is what you signed up for.

IMHO If these are reasons to never cruise then you might as well never drive the damn thing. Sell your car, buy a model of it to keep on the mantle piece.

100% agree! I even tend to go for a drive through the hills by myself on a weekday night - absolutely minimal traffic and full of awesome driving.

      Wheel Sizes & Offsets For Skylines

      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.

      MAJOR FUEL ISSUES 25det neo r32

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
