sorry i havent been on for a while but has a date and cruise been organised yet?

yeah i keep forgetting to look at this thread!!! has the route been finalized yet, its getting close!!! cant wait !!!!

Route is still not confirmed

just so many options and so many different opinions

i'm keen for driving up towards bridport then back through scottsdale and hit the sideling

had a look online and i can't see that its going to be closed down or anything and its the only one that kinda goes somewhere

Ok guys

looks like we're just gonna do a gentle meet up and cruise to beauty point

CLICK ME

i know its not the most exciting drive but it'll be good to get out and meet up

thoughts?

Hi all

As andrew and ben said too short and not enough corners,why not go to connara juction through avoca to st marys pass down elephant pass to bicheno onto swansea down east coast to sorell,stop in to the new hobby shop and get early tea hobart area and come back to lonny.

Now this is a cruise need to leave early around 9am start.

Is this too farrr for everyone.

Being from the south I'm not up for a short straight cruise after driving up the midlands highway for it, something which goes half way around the state sounds awesome to me, I'm willing to drive up to the start and just stop back off at Hobart half way. It would make for a pretty epic day, and people don't need to go the full trip if they don't want to.

That being said, the east coast I've done to death, I'd love to find some nice roads up on the north west, perhaps even cutting back through the lakes.

everyone over on boost is keen for the short easy cruise

this is not going to be the only cruise this year

i'll organise another one as we come back into some warmth (maybe even a ski trip for those who are keen)

i'm happy with going to beauty point, meeting up and getting to know everyone and just chilling

we'll leave the longer, more scenic cruises to later in the year when its warmer

I just drove this route today for work, unfortunately i was in a hiace van not the stag but good rd,

the east coast one will be a great drive but i think we should save it for when the weather heats up a bit

there is a lack of sun at the best of times so we'd have to keep pushing on and moving forwards

i think its better to do a few smaller cruises than one massive one

sure are welcome mate

will be the morning of the 26th of june

exact time to be confirmed yet

meeting at the lower uni car park (in the middle of the straight road between the two roundabouts)

My friends and I will probably meet you guys at the start and then take a different route, we have all done a lot to our cars between cruises and are keen for a all day cruise down to Bicheno or the Lakes.

no worries mate, trying to cater for all here and keep things safe

apparently the sideling tends not to see much sun in winter and gets pretty slippery

be good to see you guys at the start tho

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
