OK, sorry for the break, we have had an unprecedented umber of people interested in the cruise.

Which is great....but also makes it harder for us to organise.

So, 2 things:

1/ This cruise is being run by SAU NSW Inc (the club) and under a CAMS permit. We looked into making this a members only event due to the possibility of silly behaviour. We have decided not to do so for this year.

We will have manageable groups of cars with an SAU exec at the front and rear of each group. The lead car will stay at or under the speed limit all the way. If you pass the lead car you are no longer taking part in the cruise, your details will be recorded and you will not be welcome at future SAU events. Same if you do anything silly, we cannot risk loosing CAMS' backing in running these events. We will happily report dickheads to the police, imports already have a bad enough reputation.

2/ The place we normally go for lunch has only 50 seats available. We will make a booking Thursday afternoon for every person we have received a deposit from. If you do not deposit, or it is received after that you will have to make your own lunch arrangements elsewhere in singleton. There are plenty of other options to choose from.

Details for lunch deposits are:

Account Name: Skylines Australia NSW

Bank: NAB

BSB: 082356

Account Number: 546393766

Amount: $20 per person

Remember your payment will take at least 24 hours to come through, so do not delay if you want a lunch booking.

We're all really looking forward to this cruise, its going to be great! Just stay home, or head up there some other day if you are not willing to stick to the behaviour rules above.

Finally, please remember this is a charity cruise for the RSPCA...some bring along a gold coin or similar to donate to a great cause! Last year we raised almost $500 for the cancer council.

So do you mean today or next Thursday?

Just a question.. is the $20 just a fee or is it going towards our meal.. eg i deposit $20 for booking and my meal costs $22 I only pay the remaining 2 dollars?

sorry I'm having a bad night communicating (maybe its the grog?)....the $20 is a deposit against your lunch....we will hold it, make a booking based on the number of deposits received in our account by thursday 22/10. We will pay the deposit against the cost of your lunch....so yes in your example you only pay $2.

this cruise is about making money for the RSPCA, nto the club. We are just making sure we are not overbooked for lunch ;)

Why are all the cruises and events in Sydney located in rural/less populated areas. What about south western sydney, say like liverpool - campbelltown area?

Ummm, you musty miss the one that starts in cambelltown:) It generally called the 'old KK/maccas cruise' there has been about 5 this yr alone:) keep your eyes out")

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
