Apologies for showing enthusiasm re cruise 2nd May. Personally officer Neil can go over my stock 240K with a fine tooth comb if he likes. Hoon drivers, ego trippers and those intolerant of new members not welcome anyway. If your interested in a legal cruise and the opportunity to check out some fine rides then please contact me via PM or reply below. Thank you for the opportunity to organize this on your site.

Regards

Martin

Just to clear up something from my previous post one of you chaps commented on picking on the kid once then let it go, difficult to hear when you are a 42 yo 6'4" bloke. Good idea to meet for dinner and see if the same cheeky attitude is expressed there by some of the more beligerent members who commented. Would prefer R31 or older for this run anyway.

For future reference, please put some thought into your topic titles .... "Intelligent Responses" is not even close to acceptable - make your topic title very pertinent. Everyone (especially me) does not want to have to open your topic to see what it is about. Good luck with your cruise.

And for the record, your car can be 100% legal, yet if officer Neil wants to defect you, rest assured he will. He only has to suspect illegal mods (or any variety of unroadworthiness) and he will send you to Regency, when your slight oil leak at the rear of the engine is noticed, old/worn bushes will fail inspection, suspension components will be scrutinised (and on a 240k almost certainly fail in some respect).

Mate, if your shouting, I'm there!!

Welcome aboard Marty.

It is good to have someone showing enthusiasm, especially for the older rides. I would bring out my R31 GTS2 however I will be away that weekend.

Bear with us initially while you discover our forum etiquette... we do get a lot of toolbags (especially in school holidays) trying to arrange fully sick cruises etc.

And this is why our defect/roadworthy inspection system is up the shit. Too much faith in police discretion.

Thanks gents thats much more civil, have posted this cruise on Ozdat for sure. My vision was for Datsuns/ Nissans from the early 60's to current models to take part in this cruise as an exhibition of old school to current technology. If newish Nissan owners are only interested in cannonball runs and are rightly worried about being targeted by the cops then thats fair enough, I'm sure theres plenty of other cruises to suit that can be organised in stealth. Hopefully if the boys in blue are reading this they'll take into account the legal framework thats being applied to this cruise and show some encouragement for some enthusiasts enjoying themselves in a legal manner. My 240K won't be doing any burnouts as all it does is fry the clutch with hardly any wheelspin- not that I've ever tried it, sort of. Anyway I probably havn't given enough notice for there to be the numbers I would like. Unless I can get a lot more committed yeses its looking like I'll pull it.. so to speak.

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
