Should be a wicked cruise. For those wondering about getting dobbed in or not, don't worry about it. I am the cruise director for MGEC and own a 257kw ATW S14 (used to have a slow Mitsi!). I like to have fun also :) MGEC has new members on the committee now and things have changed slightly.

And for those that know some of the dudes from PSI would know about all of their exploits!!

so how long is the cruise? I will be available prolli after 9pm will it be finished by then or is this a decent long cruise where we can join up half way.....As for Steve: Yes we need like a decent skylines clubo!! heehheee BB out

ooops I only saw this post this morning I AM SO SORRY :-(

Well for those of you who were working, prior engagements or just unable to make this cruise : OH MY GO! AND WOW FACTOR PLUS. There were approximatly 80 cars at the start point, Nissan dominated the evening, but there were people and cars everywhere.

I officially signed on 72 people as there were others that didnt pay their donation etc, but thats ok, we raised approx $170.00(will update tomorrow) for the CANCER COUNCIL so thanks everyone.

I would like to thank those who attended and gave a donation for this event. :D

I have to agree Cheeky, we ended up going on a massive detour aswell which was ridiculous, then to top if off some tool in a red mx5 did a donut in the middle of an intersection and sprayed the side of my car with rocks! NOT HAPPY! If anyone knows him i wouldnt mind getting his number. So much for a cams organised cruise, they must have bailed right after we left big w, whats up with that? There were some nice cars out but as usual it also attracted the usual idiots that cant help but do burnouts and get us all in trouble. All in all it was a good run for the car but definitely wasnt the best cruise organised, someone should have used the directions and driven the route b4 the cruise at which point they would have realised the directions were wrong. Oh well, better luck next time.

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
