Sorry Mel, i bailed before the hills as too many close calls already with friggen idiot drivers, tail gating, cutting people off etc. Seriously if u go on a cruise with alot of cars, behave urself!!!

No it wasnt anyone from this club, i'm not going to name names, but unfortunately one of the members cars was involved in an accident and i must say i was shaking with anger becoz that member and his beautiful car DID NOT deserve this :)

I hope everyone else had a good night, it just makes me wonder if i really want to go on open cruises anymore, or just stick to the club invite ones instead where everyone knows everyone elses driving abilities. And not some guy with a V8 who doesn't even know how to control it.

it's not a v8, it;'s a v6 and he couldn't control it, completely agree with Dani on this, thankyou guys for not naming names, but trust me that little f*ckwit won't be going on anymore cruise, Josh and I have severely dealt with him

Yeah i saw nr 32 wa get rear ended by the altezza wielding Vt f**kwit.

He was reading his map while driving and BANG.

Have 3 witnesses btw mate if you would like to contact me.

It's a VX commonwhore, not a VT

Absolutely spewing and extremely embarrassed that I know the d*ckhead who did this. Nick, mate, hope everything's ok and I'm really sorry this happened to you :huh:

Apologies for the stuff up in Midland I'l ltake full responsibility for that, when I ran the map, I got one of the streets confused, we were meant to take a left at the first round about and I wrote that on the map but I got the street name wrong.

On a lighter note, other than the one incident, everyone was really well behaved and had a blast! Heaps of fun, the hills route was sooo cruisy and relaxing, it was beautiful!! Definately want to do a hills run again, however maybe next time we'll make a more coastal run, people are more familiar with those roads. Good to see no accidents in the hills and no...uhh...umm...kanagroos........................... lol Martin, you get the joke

Thanks everyone, was a decent turn out, can't wait to see the pix *nudge nudge* Brett? lol

was good cruise in general till my night came to an end on scott street , had to help jarret ( ecent in his 32gtr ) he snapped his right hand side control arm bar dealy and veered off directly to the side of the road he and all the other passangers all right and his car is not majorly damaged very luckily ( even lucker it didnt snap on the zig zag bit ) so sat there for a few hours waitin for RAC & TOE TRUCK , but other then that was all good even better cause i went to maccas after and got a mc angus burger XD

I had a good as hell night. Ended with cheeseburgers from some cool random chick that followed me along morley drive. I guess she thought I knew where I was going. :) Lucky ay.

Shame about dude in 32. saw it as i went past but didn't see any damage, tend to try keep my eyes on the road and some car arse.. though that being said, one of the northam boys was in his VT sc/d 6. and he held corners quite well. guess it was just the one f*ckhead then.

I don't think this cruises follies should deter anyone from future open cruises like this though. it was a good cruise, but I think the map let it down. map needs to be perfect so people don't get frustrated and f**k off. know what i mean?

anyway, i had fun, other northam/york guys had fun, was worth the trip down.

it's true what they say - the weir road is where the bullshit stops! :huh:

As said previously the one mistake on the map was my fault, however it did say "turn left at first round about" just the street name was wrong, but it was only one small error and everyone recovered, so shouldn't really have pissed too many people off

GPS takes Direct route not the cruisy route....

Because of me and my assumptions, we (Nathan + me) went off route a couple of times, I knew my way around, so we just went directly back on course or to the next meet point, and from Kalamunda onwards it was worth it.

Mundaring Weird was f**king EPIC, all you could see was brake lights forward of you and headlights behind you, and you could hear every RB and 2J on the limiter around blind corners...and AntiLag were coming through the opposite way, doing the same.

Zig Zag was cool (even though nobody else had the balls to run it), and as always, Tunnel is awesome with a de-cat and Bee*R!

Cheers bro! Were you in the silver 4door 34? Nice car man. HKS SSQV? Will look awesome once you dump it on some coilovers

My car isn't on coilovers at the moment, just some fairly low shocks and springs. However they're a really stiff set up and feels like I'm riding on coilovers.

It's veering to the left really badly atm so I've gotta get that checked out and find the problem before it veers off into a tree.

btw, debating over the VT/VX thing is like disputing between BA's and BF's. They're different models but both based on the B-series. Almost identical, no biggy.

Lol yeh the map was a little fail at some points, we can iron that out and hopefully run an improved Crossroads Cruise again :D Glad we managed to sort out the mishap in Mundaring as well... lol. Brett has been banned from SAUWA im pretty sure, so i will see if he can post the pictures on West Coast Cruisers and ill post them up here. And yes i agree... no kangaroos :P lol

Shiiiit, sorry Tom, i saw you pulled over but i thought you were just waiting for us, didnt realise you had done any damage. Good thing Walker is a good bloke hey, glad the car is fine :P

Can't use a GPS unless you wanna spend ages chopping and changing the route it wants to take, cruises never go from point A to point B directly, wouldn't be much fun if they did. For example, meet point in Mundaring, enter finish point at City West into the GPS and you completely miss the zig zags and all the fun roads.

hi every one the cruzz was good and i was looking forward to the rest of it. But it got cut short the car is quite smashed & crinkled in the boot im still very pissed and will be for awhile looks like it will be off the road for quite awhile thanks dani for stopping

Dude that suuucks, i was so pissed off when i heard about it. I was one of the guys talking to you at Dog Swamp about how you had just had your door painted and 2 days later someone keyed it, youre just having the worst luck :) Hope you get the car fixed soon, it is such a nice ride!

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      Shouldn't need a "base map" for anything other than guidance to ignition tuning. You just need the engine capacity right, the injector size right, and something, almost anything, for a VE map. On an NA engine, fuelling is almost completely a function of load signal & rpm. It should run and drive with a completely flat fuel map. It will be too lean under load, but that's easily fixed. We used to tune all ECUs without any base map. There were no such things (until someone had tuned a near stock engine on one, and then they had a "base map".

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      What did you actually buy/how much did it cost? When I got mine in like.. 2017...? 2019? the aim was to run Torque for gauges via ODB2 and things like Track Addict/Laptimers/Dashcam/Reversecam/Spotify etc. Mine never broke, but I wonder if you've got the same needs (it sounds like it). Cause I liked the idea of being able to do anything with it. That said, yours also cost 3x the cost of what I spent so... food for thought.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      For me there is a massive difference in manufacturer or big brand crippled android (Sony, Kenwood etc) vs the sort of thing I've installed here, which is basically just a tablet in DIN form factor with open Android, and the other model of course is mirroring - Android Auto/Carplay. I hate the locked down manufacturer and AA options where they decide what apps I'm allowed to install, including the Launcher but also importantly things like Ecutek (for this car) or Real Dash (Stagea) are not supported. Plus those crippled versions tend to be slower due to both overheads and lower spec hardware. On the other hand, when this breaks I'll likely be in trouble for support....but how is that different to owning an Infiniti anyway

      Yeah, Duncan is helping sell me back to Android devices. I've hated the whole Android head units due to their speed issues. Even in my old Hyundai Kona (2022 model), it behind the scenes was Android, and slow and shitty to start up. Once running wasn't bad, but still a good 15 to 30 seconds.

      My roof rails are off atm on the E39 until the rust is fixed. I did find another little bit of surface rust under the rails when I took them off. As @soviet_merlin said I'd just leave them alone unless you're planning on ensuring they're properly sealed. I was on the fence about leaving them off as the delete is still a thing in BMW E39's but I feel like the car is missing something (er, it is, der) with them off and I'm looking forward to putting them back on.
