We aren't going into Wisemans Ferry if thats what your referring too, and dont think we'll be stopping along the way due to the amount of cars we've got attending lol.. but once we get into Windsor, definately keen for the feed champ haha ;) then (whoever is keen) we'll head upto Hawkesbury Lookout- which from there is a 10min drive to the Hwy, easy run down the M4 back down Sydney way.

sounds like its gonna be an awesome cruise. first cruise since i got the car! =D hope it'll be great.

anyone wanna meet up before? i live in marsfield next to eastwood

I'd love to come but I think the 33 will be to hard to push the whole way, my build is taking too long.

Guys as a local of Dural/Arcadia please watch out for the green commodore that does laps of old northern road between round corner on glenorie.

He is (un) affectionately known as "captain canary" and will pull you over if you fart at the wrong time. He has even pulled over some of my friends wives in there 4wd's because they have mag wheels.

Just a friendly warning ;)

Also please disregard the primary thread showing you the cruise route & directions!! The NEW upated primary thread is down the bottom of the 1st Page!!! Cheers

How many run BOV's is that going to be a hassle on the run ?

Phill

Guys don't let it worry you I just wanted to let you know about him.

I mean in ten years of owning my line he has never pulled me up and it's far from stock sounding. But he has gotten a few friends and defected two friends wives for mags so maybe I've been lucky.

I reckon if you all stick together and no one acts like a but monkey you'll be sweet.

Hey you may not even see him at all.

Better to be duly warned than get a surprise. Once you hit Cattai Ridge Road you out of range ;)

Keep an eye out for a really sad looking guy standing at the top of his driveway with his SAU lanyard waving...........it will be me wishing I could be there

Hopefuly we dont see him, but then again will be hard for him to pull all of us up hahahaha.. im not stressin cause we'll be in a big group!! :whistling::banana: Sounds like his on a power trip though ay :spank:

But we're not taking Cattai Ridge Rd. anymore, we're heading up Old Northern & taking Wisemans Ferry Rd. now, i went for a drive and thought it was much nicer (views & on the tires/rims) seeing the roads been re-done :cool:

Cheers Dave, thank you for the heads up, much appreciated...

Im runnigs a BOV too, and probably over $5,000 worth of other defects!! Just dont make yourself a target, with stupud behaviour... on our last cruise to Terrigal which was for charity, someone did a burnout & got they're car impounded... Other than that the cops left everyone else alone, i've never had any problem on previous cruises!! All i can say is; Be the loudest one, who wants attention, and you'll get it- you'll be the weakest one!! Just bring your common sense & stick to road rules, and we'll all be sweet. Cant wait, will be a great day out cruisin ;)!!!

Oh the peace of mind of having an engineers certificate haha. Hopefully my days of defects are over!

I would be really interested in bringing my 180sx along for the cruise :) I live in the mountains so would come to Hawkesbury lookout as well as its on the way home :)

You'll all have to come say hello and be friendly though as i wont know anyone else :(

    • Yes I can see how that would put you off HFM, especially with the price of good quality brake fluid. From what I understand it as you say the BM50 is the standard BMC for a R32 GTR, I must admit I would like to go far a Genuine Nissan BM57, but lack of cash prevents that at present. With the price being so close between the genuine BM50 and BM57 a BM57 New it seems a better choice as you gain that 1/16 bore size with the BM57, I would be interested in how much difference you feel with the BM57 fitted. I am going to take SteveL's advice in the short term and see how much actually comes out of that proportioning valve vent and save up for the Genuine Nissan part. Thanks for clarifying the HFM failure
    • Thanks mate. I just got the post inspection 1/2 done from state roads when the starter motor packed up, either that or the car alarm system is having trouble.  OEM part number 23300-AA112.
    • Hi, I though I was coming to an end in finding a replacement starter motor for a rb25de neo. I came across a starter motor from Taarks and a message below stating: Direct fit. 11 Tooth count. All below part numbers have been superseded to 11 teeth. Can some body shed some light on going from 8 teeth to 11 teeth apart from 36-month / 25,000 km warranty for passenger vehicles to 12 Month Warranty. Compatible with the following Nissan part numbers: 23300-20P00 23300-20P01 23300-20P05 23300-20P10 23300-20P11 23300-AA111 23300-AA112 23300-AA300 23300-08U10 23300-08U11 23300-08U15  
    • Low battery? Maybe check capacity? I know first-hand, on BMWs if your battery drops below 80% capacity, it starts causing strange issues.
    • 8.5 +37 = should fit rear, but I think it'll hit on front. What you want is low 30s/high 20's front, mid 30's rear. That 17" screenshot you posted looks good, I'd run it on my R32 (but that's long dead now). For tyre sizes, my rule of thumb is: 8': 235, 9": 255. But that's just my opinion. Nismo sizes: 18x8.5+35/18x9.5+38 is a good starting point.
