Street Commodores Cruise For Charity

Hey guys,

I've been going to the cruise for charity for the last two years with my mate in his VY SV6, it's always good fun and a great day out. Especially 2010 the cruise route was awesome.

This year I'm thinking about bringing my own car for the cruise as every time I see other Skylines, even an RX3 last year.

Is anyone interested in coming along? Perhaps having our own little cruise within the cruise (of course donating to the charity cause as well)

I believe they're looking at Sunday the 21st October 2012 at the moment. I'll pose more details if there's any interest.

Thanks,

Teir.

do they drive like morons on this cruise? as thats the general overview of their cruises.

i would come along as im sure a few others would. but the moment they start acting stupid i would probably leave.

I believe there is something like over 800 cars that go, and they are thinking it'll be MUCH larger this year, I understand they are all cruising to a motorsport venue (one that is large enough to house everyone) as an end point for a car show and stuff. (not sure if it's official yet, so i wont say where).

Like anything, you will always get morons, but the Police actually get involved with this due to the sheer size so muppet ratio should be markedly diminished.

I don't see how it's speculation when Aaron asked a question? We are waiting for confirmation from someone who has been twice and also showing interest pending his response.

Well you guys didn't need to post that in this guys thread in the first place go or don't go it's your decision no need to ruin a thread with speculation.

Well for starters it's not in the events section. Which it should be.

And secondly yusoangry4 are u thinking of buying a commodore lol

From the last two years it's been pretty calm. The odd idiot doing a burn out on the way out but with almost 1000 cars you gotta expect some idiots, but also as nismod said, there's cops, ALOT OF COPS. Cops at every entrance and exit, also along the cruise route. Personally, I haven't seen anything dangerous stupid...

To be honest, a few of us witnessed a much more dangerous maneuver at the SAU GOR cruise this year that was completely out of the ball park compared to what I've ever seen at the cruise for charity.

As for posting in events, I really wanted to just put a few feelers out, see who's interested. If it gets big enough and the mods want to organize anything, perhaps make a Member's cruise within the CfC of our own? Put in a donation together? If we get a big enough group and want to meet up ourselves and do it I don't mind organizing that either, as I said, just putting the feelers out.

Once we know the start and destination, and if mods don't want to organize anything I'll perhaps put something "official" in the events area and organize it.

    • Hi all, so some of my speakers still work some I don’t think work. The old head unit is still all functional. If I keep the stock head unit as I feel it’s vintage then can I just pop in new speakers - would that be plug and play? Would I need to bypass the amps in the doors and back? Heard there’s 3 of them.  anyone run a blue tooth into the stock head unit? Or is the only option running one of those tape decks with cable coming out?  my cd deck controller although rare I don’t think is working anymore either. Guess if I got that working with the speakers then I could load some cds.    just seeing my options here if anyone has some advise. 
    • My trusted mechanic is Tunehouse in Calder St, Marrickville. He's the guy who did the ECUtek dyno tune on mine. I'm nearing the 85k mark for my motor and I'm considering getting the oil galley gaskets done as preventative maintenance when the time comes. Since my garage isn't big enough for such a task, I'm definitely going to be handing it over to him. You'll be impressed by how clean he keeps his workshop. It gives you the confidence he and his employees will look after your vehicle with the same pride.
    • The Bogan Sports Car now has fresh gear bag and diff oil The old gear bag oil was nice and clean looking, the old diff oil was average looking, not horrible, just dark, I've seen worse in other cars, much worse Good things was that both drain plug magnets looked good with zero bits of anything apart from a small coating of that typical black goo you get on the diff plug, it was probably the original diff oil, but nothing shiny The shifts are sweet, and the Torsen is Torsening like a boss (tested in the work vehicle maintenance yard after work). LOL In other noise related news, the Racing Beat axle back sound nicer than stock from outside with the roof down, but still pretty quiet, but it's not noticeable at all really inside with the roof up.....maybe it needs a header.....🤪  This is what a OEM header looks like 😝 > 🤣🤣🤣🤑   
    • what about people that have loud exhausts on automatics?
    • Does it have a vacuum brake booster? If it does, and the booster isn't connected you will get TPS and all sorts of other codes, and it will struggle to idle Have you driven the car, checked the brakes?
