God_speed Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 Was there a photo of me getting on the ferry? The Sil80 had a HARD time getting off :| -Alex I couldn't take any photos because I was either too busy talking, handing out maps, or turning up late everywhere on the day! But that's what a couple of us were worried about, we saw a few cars about our ride height make it ON the ferry ok, but had no idea what it would be like on the other side. Would've had to catch the ferry back to the south side again and then reverse off it!

The Bogan Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 Poor low cars missing out on all the driving fun........ My boat goes everywhere, no point in owning a car that cannot be driven I say, I always say that "low is slow" unless you have spent big dollars on correcting steering geometry, might need to change that to "low is no go" Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/388284-sau-nsw-wisemans-ferry-social-cruise-sunday-19th-feb-2012/page/9/#findComment-6246934 Share on other sites More sharing options...
lanky71 Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 I think it depended on which ferry you caught over, I'll admit my car wasn't the lowest but it managed to get on the ferry fine and get off even easier - on the other side the ferry I was on they managed to make it so it was no worse then going over a lil speed hump to get off.

levinboy Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 Yea the right ferry was easier then the left and the skipper drove it all the way up the other bank, which was sweet Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/388284-sau-nsw-wisemans-ferry-social-cruise-sunday-19th-feb-2012/page/9/#findComment-6246998 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jez13 Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 (edited) Was there a photo of me getting on the ferry? The Sil80 had a HARD time getting off :| -Alex Yeah mate, I got one of yours getting on. I think I was a micro-second too late though as the shutter closed right when your front right wheel hit the bump/ramp. I will put it up for you tonight if I can. PS - On a an unrelated topic - does anyone know when your warn status goes back down? Mine hasnt moved in years and I am itching to swear and be humourously abusive again.

Mihalis Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 Just made it .I must have been driving on fumes.It doesnt take long for that tank to empty when youre on boost. Thanks for that mate.Its the best i ve had it running so far.Not bad for 16 psi. I cant wait to tune it at 26 psi and see the figures on the dyno. Your R33 looks and goes fantastic,are you going to the Powercruise this weekend? Did you make it to a fuel station??

TheMadkent Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Hey Guys, I've been wanting to get on here and post pics of the event but I have been bent over with work. There is no point posting my pics on here as each photo is 16MB, so I loaded the maximum 300MB in one go onto Flickr. I have heaps more so will load more up as soon as I get more space to play with. Link is Below - Enjoy. http://www.flickr.co...s/77653397@N06/ Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/388284-sau-nsw-wisemans-ferry-social-cruise-sunday-19th-feb-2012/page/9/#findComment-6264169 Share on other sites More sharing options...
