This Event is SAUer-friendly; meaning that YOU ARE THE IMPORTANT ONE!

This means that you can ride your scooter up the Bells Line Of Road if you wish hehe...

Seriously, your VL is most welcome; and it can take part in Group 4 of the convoy.

Group 1 = R32s

Group 2 = R33s

Group 3 = Other Skylines

Group 4 = Other Cars 'n scooters

Enjoy the Cinema as well as the cruise too Nick! :D

How's the weather forecast for the 10th Oct atm guys?

Ask our Organisers for anything you need on the day - they'll have Name Tags!

The Organisers will be doing a Recon (on Sunday week) to check one final time, where we'll pause on the cruise. BP Ultimate can be procured on the day on Bells Line Of Road.

But near Penrith you have a choice of all fuel types along Mulgoa Rd. near the Start.

hey terry, i am not sure if my car will be out of the mechanics by then or not, is it possible if so to just come along for the cruise? dont want to stuff you around with holding tickets or anything?

cheers

Certainly OK!

I hope your car has a fine bill of health by then too :D

Hi All!

I'm happy to announce the prize for the Best R32 GTR on the day!

John (aka kuma_j) has kindly offered his services to create us an exact replica of a Winfield R32 GT-R. This will include wheels, chassis and engine.

Here are some piccies of the awesome mini beast:

This is going to be an awesome day peoples, make sure you get your tickets!!! :D

Even the "BOOBY Prize" is worth over 100!!!

Best to mention your location aswel as the people reading this thread come from all corners of Sydney

Buzz Lightgear voice: AND BEYOND! :D

Anyone willing to give me a lift? In return Ill take photos of your car. Ill go halves of petrol. Being on L-plates has its disadvantages....

if you happen to be close by to me and the ms's is ok with it ill be happy to give you a lift

Hopefully I'll make it for the cruise, have to get to the airport later that afternoon so the movie might be pushing it! Will gladly make a donation though :)

Will hopefully have a 'photographer' tagging along in the form of a friend or possibly my sister!

You guys above...

The more R32s the merrier, even if you can only make the start! There'll be cameras all over the place!

And the more Nissan-nuts inside the Cinema, the more hootin' and a hollerin' there'll be! :banana:

There'll be some more surprises popping up on this thread real soon!

Hi Terry

Regarding this separate groups 1, 2, 3, .. when it comes to the cruise, some of the guys I intended to have come with us are not too happy about this arrangement because not all are in skylines nevermind R32s so their argument is " why should we come out with you when we are not going to cruise or see you all day long" and I see their point, most are coming just to see my car and be able to cruise with me for part of the day at least if not more.

So if things remain as they are we might not see all the cars come out due to the fact of friends being separated on a same cruise. What are your thoughts on the matter?

Regards

    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
    • What ECU are you running? This is probably the biggest question. If it's a PowerFC, I'd probably change the ECU and get something newer that will handle the injectors in a nicer way.
