Damn - hate it when im right !!! :(

 

ill still be there though...

soo!! did you actually make it?! :)

Thanks to everyone that turned up!!! I actually didn't think so many of you would! Hehe...was fully expecting to go it alone!! Glad i didn't have to though :)

I'm happy to say we had no bad encounters with cops! in fact...we had no encounters at all! no incidents nothing!! The road was a lil wet....and it was definitely a slippery drive, but apart from that it was a nice clean cruise! :)

Whens the next one!!! :P:D :D

great cruise guys, that was great fun... :(

Hey Ash,

You didn't make it right to Terrigal did you?

I didn't see you there?

You don't know me, but i know of you thru Backup(Dale)

I think i counted 10 Skylines at Terrigal :)

Niiiiicccceeeee

soo!!  did you actually make it?! :(

 

 

Course i did !!

although, got %$^$ called for work by the time we all arived at Kariong, so i had to scoot.... :cuss:

the drive was good - a LOT longer than i thought, but i learnt something about my car....how deep in the red it can go petrol wise ! (didnt see a petrol warning light though..)

Great to meet up with the Central Coast contingent, and put some faces to names... :) Hopefully will catch up again next weekend...

just gotta remember -

1) more petrol next time

2) 265/35/18's and wet roads dont go, regardless of how the car handles !! :P

you guys took your sweet time gettin' up there

I missed the 9pm meeting point by 10 mins and had to hang out at work on the net for 30 mins. (washed my car and missed you guys)

I then went up to macca's and met up with ronin and some others, it was good to meet some people from here though.

so when's the next one? make it a month away or something

cheers

Thanks for the cruise,  I had a ball on those slippery roads !   It sure beat sitting at home on the net and watching TV   :-)

When is the next one !!!

Hehehe....i told you!!! next time bring the mazda out!!! :D I think james and martin regretted being in my car the first time you disappeared!!

and man do i have alot to learn about windy roads!!! what a struggle to keep up! and you and the s15 weren't even trying!!!! :

Hey gizmo! you should do what i do when on call! drag your laptop everyone and just log on remotely!! :):(:P

Next cruise!? a month away is probably good! whose going to organising it?!?! :D

Bah thats not right.... i'm on 265/35's and i actually almost caught up with mona (which is a feat even in the dry) after she got a 10 min head start from wisemans :)

But that said i almost sh*t myself on a few corners and bridges.

Kudos on the cruise mona, how could you think even for a second that we'd make u go it alone. I miss your exhaust tho.

Oh and Dave, you drive like my grandma.... and she's dead :(

Simon, was that you that I caught upto near the end of that road with the intersection to Gosford/Singleton/Sydney and we didn't know where to go? I was in the Midnight Purple R33 GTR...

If so, you have to also factor in the 2-3 minutes we spent stationary at that intersection trying to figure it out and calling people too :)

Hahahaha....and the fact you caught up means you were driving alot better than i was :P

YAY!! i'm glad you guys turned up! :D i wasn't sure cause i didn't see any other posts apart from your first ones... :D

and i miss my exhaust too :) :) :( :( its too quiet now! but i'd better get used to it!

Hey Andrew! Sorry! I was figuring it out as i went!!! next time i'll remember to say its pretty much straight all the way to the last intersection with the lights! :)

    • Power steering is probably because someone has nuked the HICAS CU and you no longer have the variable power asist doing what it is supposed to. How much boost are you running? You are aware that any more than 10 psi on the stock ECU is just asking for it to go to full R&R (that's Rich & Retard, which is effectively Retarded and Retarded!) which kills all the power. Depending on the exact conditions, it can just be runnign on the fat and stupid end of the maps, then the conditions change, you make a little more boost and the ECU goes into panic.
    • @BuiltNotBought Just as GTSboy said.   If you want driveabilty and more low down torque..keep the stock runners. They are VERY good from a factory. I have them too on my RB25DET NEO and as a GTSboy i have fmic but with stock piping route(i have Blitz intercooler) Iam making around 320 BHP and the car pulls "hard" from like 2,5k all the way to 7k. I have it dyno tuned to mimic N/A power curve and making little less max torque due to the smallbox tranny. But driveability is very great. I had 350Nm below 3k so car feels very quick.
    • Looking to sort out a couple of issues on my skyline  It recently was rebuilt, however rebuilder long story short did not give two flying effs about the work he did. So moving forward it's running but I have two persistent issues 1) it has a misfire / lag type of issue (was at higher RPMs but I had a dead piggy back ecu removed which improved it) now it's not as bad but still does it at random, I thought it may have been a boost issue I'm running an older turbosmart dual stage controller, turbosmart told me to try running off gate pressure however it still has a lag at random times. It has New MAF, maf plug, coil packs, sparks, CP harness.. injectors tested and cleaned. Factory ECU. 2) Power steering issue. It is tight as anything. Flushed power steering, rebuilt my pump because the bearing was shot. Flushed again still tight (mainly when parking and going slow into my driveway etc)  No kinks in hard lines, replaced the lines I could see had cracks. Still tough to steer.  I was told to shim a coin and place into the solenoid plug? Is there anything else. My steering angle sensor also has a issue. It's a used one I replaced, does it need to be calibrated? I feel like I've tried everything and this car is my voodoo doll.   
    • Holy shit... wow!!! I totally missed this
    • One main filter. Each tank has a prefilter to keep rocks and small children out, then the big main filter that also does water separation. Clogged the first one so bad it was like a rev limiter at 3200rpm. Literally just like dropping the throttle off and maintaining rpm!
