Getting up a mountain is no problem. Comes up Henry Robert in second 4/5 grand never misses a beat. It is the low speed crusing that stuffs things. Not always but sometimes just get a bit of boost and it dies in the arse.

I have a leak somewhere in and about the AAC. And remember I have a Greddy FFP. Its a sod to get at.

I can drive the RS4 but might have to bring the 25G.

check the 20 cent sized disk on the side of the aac for leakage

mine was leaking under about 5psi (charged up from a compressor)

couldn't get it undone (has 3 holes on the surface of the disk, 1 centre hole and 2 either side) so i just put a bit of epoxy around it to seal it up

Miht be riding along with Myles :) Not a deffinate yet though

Not sure how many people are coming but have made a booking fo 30 people for lunch at surf club.

If we have too many there is a pub across the road and a park, so will work it out on the day when we get there.

Mattye - I have spare navigators seat if you want or anyone else

Thanks for making the booking Darrin. 30 sounds like a good number. It'd be great if that many turn out for the cruise.

Looks like I won't be driving down this time. But if this job interview goes well I might just be moving down to Brisvegas soon, then I will definately be at the next one.

Can someone take a heap of photos of the day and load them up somewhere (or send a link) so I don't completely miss the action?

Cheers and have an awesome cruise on Sunday.

Good luck with the interview. I hope you get the job. I can already tell you're the best candidate ;)

My son will most likely be going crazy with the camera on Sunday. But they will all be of cars, and probably arty farty closeups & weird angles of badges or exhausts or whatever.

I'll try and wrestle the cam away for some group shots of people having fun to make everyone wish they were there. Having met nearly no one in person yet, they might all be reluctant to pose for some idiot with a camera, but I'll see what I can do.

How about a reply from all who are going to give a more accurate idea of numbers?

Because i'm 40 minutes north of Bribie, i'll meet up there.Looking forward to more M35s, but really it doesnt matter which models as

long as they are "stags'.

graham.

p.s darrin,do you still expect around 12. to arrive there?

urzulus - i just noticed you live at springfield lakes, just out of curiosity do you live near janus grove? my sister in law lives in janus grove and ive always wondered if the stag near her was on here.

I really dont know, i live in springfield lakes........

Date : Sunday the 28th November

Time : Meet 9.00am, leave 9.15am sharp

Start : Springwood Shopping centre. Mc'Donalds's carpark on the eastern side off highway. Opposite A-mart (old Ikea building)

Finish : Surf club Bribie Island approx 12.00-12.30 for lunch and optional swim (kids)

Pitstop and pickup at Nudgee Shell on gateway at approx 9.45 and leave 10.00am

Route : Up gateway over bridge. Stop/pickup point at Nudgee Shell. Travel north to Kallangur, west thru Dayboro, Over MT Mee

Down thru Caboolture, and east across Bribie Island to surf club or pub for lunch

Distance approx 160km's, so fuel up before.

Hope it was a good day for some of you. My day ended up costing me $200 & three points. I would have liked to have made it to Bribie but had a prior engagement this afternoon on the Southside.

Thanks to Darrin for organising this cruise for us Stagea owners. Glad to get one last drive in with you all before moving to the ACT next year.

If I don't run into any of you before I head south, have a safe Merry Christmas & Happy New Year.

    • 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.
