Been quite a while since we all got together for a nice cruise and a chat over a nutritious evening meal... For those who don't know about it, the famous PIZZA CRUISE at Newport was started even before my arrival on this site some 9 years ago.... for some reason, I was eventually left to organize the last few but sadly, this event has fallen deep into the archive folder and i feel that i HAVE to do something about it. Although I would like to make it different this time around.

Back in the day, we met at a car park in Chatswood, then drove to Newport, ate and then continued on to Palm Beach (well, most of us anyway) there we shared jokes, took photos, made fun of Hondas (and other fully sik, non Nissan vehicles) then, some would cruise elsewhere, some would go home... etc.

Friday Night was the preferred time as no-one had an early start the next day. We started experiencing problems organizing this due to a lot of bad publicity on such riveting shows as ACA and TT... you know the rest... The carpark who was once more than happy to accommodate us originally as our first meeting point decided to decline our requests claiming that they did not want trouble... what trouble I have no idea....

Then once or twice we had one or two idiots join the cruise and try to act like Vin Diesel with burn outs and stupid behavior... and of course we got a lot of unwanted police attention.

Fast forward.

My idea for THE RETURN, is to make the whole thing different... instead of cruising North, the meeting point and or destination would be where http://en.wikipedia....%28TV_series%29 was filmed. CHULLORA.. at a place called THE PALMS HOTEL

There is a HUGE carpark that we are allowed to use, there is a great PUB/RESTAURANT where we can all have a nice meal, pool tables.... etc

In fact, if you have never seen it before, feel free to check out their website ----> http://www.thepalmshotel.com.au/

Details of a pre dinner cruise are open to discussion, of course as it would be great to have club members from every angle in Sydney.

THE CATCH.

Yep, there is a catch... whoever wants to be part of this MUST abide by every single road rule... NO stupidity will be tolerated AT ALL and the authorities WILL be notified.

I thank you in advance and hope we can make this happen.

aaaaaand..... GO!

Date has been set for Friday August the 17th.

Meeting time: 7pm

Meeting place: P6 car park, Homebush (Olympic Park)

Hey mate, thanks for the link... We might be able to get a gathering for the roadtrip down depending on how much notice etc... We could do a Old Pac or Wisemans cruise on the way down/back to avoid the boring freeway drive...

How can ANYONE not feel the :wub:

Let me clarify that this is not a pizza venue as such, although they might be able to dish them out... I'll find out. I was thinking of talking to management about putting together a menu package for SAU members... yep, that can be done.

The reason that this can be so is because management are keen to get the group to come in... I've spoken to them about this because, if you saw the car park alone, you'd LOVE the joint.. There's parking at the front and at the back of the building... the courtyard actually faces it! I could go on but you'll see it for yourselves.

I thought we could also take the opportunity to congratulate Corinne and Beau in person after learning the great news.. btw Congrats you two!

As far as dates, we could aim for the 17th of August for our first one, that would give us plenty time to get the word out there... it would be nice to get cars from all over the place. As Mat wrote, people can organise their own cruise and then we can share the experience.

:cheers:

Might clash with some of the Marulan guys, not sure.... Im still unsure if ill go Saturday or Early Sunday morning....

But if you do set that date we will have something to work towards! I know our Newy guys will be cruising on the weekend after and WTAC is the weekend before so maybe the 17th isnt too bad? :ermm:

Are you likely to make regular meets? If so, lock in the 17th and I'll see if the guys up here are keen for a cruise down... If we get some interest I might work with you and make a plan to meet somewhere with you guys :D depends Marulan for me, but sounds OK so far!!

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂

      Cas issue

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.

      Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.

      Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
