I met up at Newy at the start of the cruise. There was one incident - a P plater travelling with us got pulled over by highway patrol on the way down to Sydney.

Someone should have photos. The orange car had its passenger hanging out the window taking pic at least.

I thought the white supra was nice, the red RX7, and the dark green chaser whos owner i was chatting to - 285rwhp with only front mount exhaust and a bleed valve.

Yeah, Jye got pulled over.... (i came from newy so i know most of them)...

and RSEA is a VERY nice supra... unfortunately the RX7 had cooling problems... so that's a bit of a bummer...

And yeah, Tubby's car (chaser) is a nice ride... he was a bit dissapointed that he lost the 'sleeper' look with the FMIC though... lol

I don't think i saw you there though Mark, what car where you in?

Hey all,

Cheers for the great day, had good weather for it too.

Ya know i'm still scratching my head over the worked camry.... i mean WHY WORK A CAMRY. Besides that it was a good chance to check out some others works and match a few names and faces.

As for the highlight of the day, moanie and her new clutch.... from out of nowhere there would be this mad reving, you look over to see a very nice looking/sounding car and its matching driver and think "gee... which is hotter".

End of mindless flattery......

i was gonna say "Gee... which is louder" :D

hahaha...thanks simon! but its the car thats hot! :D

and that camry was awesome!!!! i loved it!! i wanted to do that with my corolla! hehe...probably would have, if i'd known more about engines! :)

:D at tosh...that launch was awesome! :) i think i always pull the unplanned ones off...but the minute someones watching i forget how to drive :(

:) at tim...its hard to get used to...i sometimes forget i have a twin plate and try to launch normally....ahh well...instinct will eventually kick in ;)

    • 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 😡
