OK I've had enough. This issue has been brought up across a few threads, and it doesn't seem to be going away in any sort of hurry. What sort of vehicles should be allowed to come out on SAU Qld cruises? This has nothing to do with who is on the forums at all, as it clearly states that the forums are open to all motor vehicle enthusiasts. I have nothing against the people who drive these cars, but lets face it, this is a skyline site, and what’s the point of having a “skyline” cruise when other cars outnumber the skylines?

If you turned up to a Holden commodore car club meet in a Barina, or perhaps a turbo astra jumping up and down saying “can I cruise with ya, eh, eh?” would you expect them to welcome you with open arms? I don’t think so. They would probably tell you to f*@k right off. What do the rest of you think? Where do we draw the line? And who gets to decide and enforce this?

Well, you beat me to it! Was going to post the same thread...

I think we should alow a handfull ie no more than 2-3 cars other than skylines to come along... With the following stipulations...

-The person must be an active and known member of the forums. ie no-one off the street.

-Must drive a car deemed to be up to scratch.

-Must be a person everyone is happy to have come along.

I will be happy to be the judge and jury on this issue when it arises, as I would be fair and looking at the greater interests of the group.

I think a secret PM vote should be undertaken before anyone new comes or recieves info for a meet. We have grown alot now and need to keep the same feel with our meets, read as: NO DICKHEADS. If we get too big or have even ONE wanker come along its bad news for the rest of us and we loose what we have built so far...

Agreed?

I agree 100% James...

Nissan Imports are fine in moderation IMHO... EG: Cefiros, 180SX's, Silvias, etc...

But Barinas, Commodores, Lancers etc. are NOT welcome in my mind... By all means come to the meeting spot in your Hyundai, but try and organise a ride in a Skyline rather than tagging along in your POS...

I agree other import nissans are welcome to come

But these other cars tagging along are sorta getting annoying, there are other websites for these guys to goto cruises for any make/model cars.

Heres two websites for you guys

    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it. 
    • Not yet quite as bad as what we've seen a Jim Berry clutch do in an R32 GTR though when it decided to cut a chassis rail in half... Still very very gnarly and a great reason to avoid.
