Due to the success cruise we had at the Wiseman Ferry, this is going to be the start of 2011 year cruise. We decided to have this activity at Cordeaux dam which could easy fit 200+ cars and a great cruise location for meets and eat. It's a nice area for photoshoots and deciding to have BBQ there.

Any members have suggestions or ideas about this cruise please feel free to have your say here, your ideas would be very much appreciated. I'll leave the premeets up to you guys to suggest.

If you have CB radio please bring it on the day for better communications. Channels will be noticed on the day.

- Try to be at your best behaviour on the roads guys, last thing we hate to see is getting pulled over. (optional)

Notes:

-Car ride height recommended above iphone height

-BBQ so obviously $ (optional)

-Insect repellant (Recommended/optional)

-Please fill tank before meet

-bottle drinks in car

-CB Radio , to some people dont know what CB is, Walkie Talkie. very convenient

that is all.

Thanks members.

(ps. Wiseman Ferry Cruise photos will be finish soon please be patience till its completed) also thanks to the members who contributed photos.)

It's actually in a nice setting. :yes:

The approach is off Picton Rd (connecting Picton/Wilton to Wollongong) with a bit of a canyon feel to it near the dam wall (as I recall).

I organised an observation cruise to the Cordeaux would you believe 44 yrs ago! Haha.... I was only 17 then (& treasurer of a tennis organisation based at White City).

I just want to say jizzles isn't a cop and the last cruise he organised on ns.com was a big success, he even had maps printed off so people would know where to go. No cop trouble at all and everyone was well behaved.

I highly recommend anyone that can make it to come along

cheers Jonny

(BTW jizzles its SDEWYZ of ns.com)

Can we get some Google Maps happening? Not sure where the first location is.

Also, try and work on figuring out some times; eg. meet at meeting location at x, leave at y on the dot, get to dam at z.

That way if I feel lazy I can just meet you guys there :P

edit:

i assume this is the meet? that carpark?

.....as for the destination... i'm ashamed to admit, but my google maps power has failed me :(

sorry thats not the road. the map is not updated. if you follow onto forshore road (left) there is a dry land dotted, which is now a boat ramp that cannot be missed! their is intersection lights and you will definitely see it.

    • Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks
    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated. Rb25det s1 walbro255 fuel pump nismo fpr holset hx35 turbo fmic 3" exhaust freddy intake manifold q45tb q45 maf   Re: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Fri Apr 12, 2013 5:07 am No, I didn't. I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
    • My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.
