Hey guys,

Here are the pictures of "The Edge" itself (see attachments). After going through the route of the cruise, this is the kind of comfort and style I look forward to after a long and hard drive :-) And you can bet I'll be pigging out at the kiosk lol

This sounds like an awesome trip will definatly be keen. Road trip from the capital!

We need your car (and you) lol !

BTW Peter, if you're staying overnight, very close to the Start, GTRKat has details of where your car be secured in that hotel's compound.

It has a limit of 9x cars.

Good to see people getting on board! Let me know if you need accommodation info.

So far we have locked in:

1. CeJay

2. Kat

3. Shell

And for those that have contacted me for info on a hotel, please let me know if you'll be staying. As Terry mentioned there are approx 9 carspots available. Locked in to hotel and parking so far:

1. Kat

Spesh if you are staying at the hotel can you please add your name to the list so we don't get too many. Because I for one would be sleeping IN the car if it was not in secure parking. Paranoia at it's finest :P

I think as far as most of us are concerned it's the more the merrier but only if you bring the museum piece of out of the garage Nathan :banana:

I just like the piece of mind to know she's locked up safe. Means I can head off to the club and have a few with no worries!

dont make me put you on the club black list haha i might pass then haha dont want to send it to the body shop for forth time

I think the several act events have shown that skyline owners won't get too pissed if you show up. You'll just have to ride in the last group :banana:

FYI, payments have been received from the following Postcodes for Cinema Tickets, in reverse order (ie from most recent to first)...

3132, 2128, 2173, 2615, 2755, 2747, 2750, 2755, 2166, 2163, 2750, 2044, 2567, 2560, 2227, 2541, 2615, 2557, 2527, 2777, 2206, 2127, 2914, 2795, 2785, 2113, 4210, 2615, 2203, 2795, 2166, 2095, 5013, 2138, 2232, 2148. ;)

We've Gone National ! ! !

We now have more than 2x visitors from each of Country NSW, ACT, VIC, SA, QLD.

Most states/territories are now represented.

The Victorians who purchased tickets today can PM you Kat for details on where to stay and keep their car securely locked away.

You might wish to bring a car cover though to prevent the deposit of dew?

I'll let the Victorians know that they can join your convoy. The South Australians however, will be coming up days ahead.

2x more from ACT paid 10.14am today Kat :yes:

...so Postcode 2609 will be posted soon. It's so good to see a big ACT contingent.

Did you get a PM from the Victorians at all?

PM me after David Fitzsimon's Cover Story about an SAUer's R32 GT-R comes out in Daily Telegraph's Cars Guide on a Friday early October, about how many are staying overnight up here on the Sat? I'd like to pay a visit!

    • Well, yes, every CU on the bus is available via the Consult port, but whether the scanner you are using is capable of talking to the TCU, the ABS/TCS modules, etc etc, is what is at question here. Many of them are only for engine codes. So, if you have one of those, you won't know if the ABS is having a bitch.
    • That's now. R chassis Skylines come from a time when the tolerance in the ADRs was a bit more....slack. My car, on 235/35-17, which is damn near the exact same size as the original 205/55-16, is pretty much bang on correct indicated speed across the whole legal range. That's demonstrated with constant speed run over 5km, and GPS speed. It's just the luck of the draw. My particular speedo head has to be the thing that is "calibrated" that way, because everything else (the diff ratio, the gearbox and the speedo drive**) are all same same as most other Skylines. **OK, so the speedo drive is a Navara unit to drive the R32's cable, not the electronic unit than an R33/4 would normally have with teh same gear on it. Otherwise, I applaud your OCD tendencies, and I would do the same if I needed to.
    • Not too sure, I believe the Nissan consult port does everything? Also just filled up the reservoir to full and the light is still on. The float seems to move up and down fine.
    • The speedo's can be very conservative, when my Mazda NC MX5 speedo is showing 118kph, the GPS, and a calibrated radar.... cop mate.....hits me at around 110kph +/- 1 or 2 kph, and that is on a 215/45 17, stock tyres size is 205/45 17 as well, so weirdly conservative with stock tyre size When my Commodore speedo red 116kph GPS had me at 110kph on 255/40 17, so again conservative Google says manufacturers need to set the speedo from 4 to 10% slower than actual road speed.....for safety.....and compliance  After doing some offset and clearance measurements to see what can fit the NC on 17x8 +40, without guard rolling or rubbing anything at my current ride height, I've decided that when my tyres are toast, I'm going to fit 225/45 17 and see where that gets me IRT actual speed of my speedo and GPS/radar From the online calculator I should be still be doing around 5kph under an actual 110kph when the speedo is showing 110kph My ADHD requires that when I'm doing 110kph on the speedo, that the actual road speed is actually really close to that, and not alot slower And going from 205 to 225 still keeps the car within the %/mm allowable in the NSW vehicle rules and regulations, which is nice, as long as I'm looking at the latest version that is.....LOL https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-13.464-Light-vehicle-modifications-Vehicle-Standards-Information-No-6-November-2013.pdf
    • Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.
