Haha yeah it's a shame I don't get to enjoy my angel-eye headlights nor led tail-lights myself :( .... my headlights didn't blind you too much did they? I still need to muck around more with their adjustment.

I take it this is yours?

They looked killer!

Anyone else see the bayside blue C34 get rear ended by some guy in a 4WD as we were leaving the halfway point?

that was me post-72216-0-64783700-1359878180_thumb.jpg Luckily everyone is ok - but a little sore. Our main concern was our 2 girls - both under 3 but they seem to be better than us, probably because they were asleep. As for the car - no windows broke, all lights still work and we got home without any troubles. Rear tailgate and bumper are dead, don't see finding another dolphin rear bar as an easy task though. Getting quotes tomorrow. More pics to follow

Hehe glad you liked it :) - I gave it a fair blast past 50 or so near stationery cars - thought they would appreciate it :P

Yeah mate, that's mine. Thanks! I get 50/50 positive to negative comments about the lights, but I love them!

Ouch, that sucks big time!

^^keeping up with this guy is an artform

:whistling: .... I am slow compared to the guys on here with decent GTRs, but don't seem to do too badly given I have less than half the power of most :D :D :D

Ohh devo, sorry to hear mate.

What did the other driver say?

She was very upset about it all - seems to be just one of those accidents, but from the outcome it has been the type you want if you had a choice... erm.. yeah?? Once we knew everyone was ok, didn't matter too much about the rest. Still feel it was a great night out.

Sorry to hear about the damage, im sure it will buff out. (too early for jokes?)

I knew that was going to happen to someone and it almost happened to me with a commo up my ass. He had to pull to the left of me to stop from going up my ass, i was lucky i knew he was close and i moved to the right to give him more room.

People need to think its not a race and leave a bit more room, especially in damp conditions. All in all it wasnt a bad night.

Sorry for anyone thinking I was driving like a dick.. But I can drive had my license for 5 years now. I had to stop at the bp on the freeway as my car was out of fuel then everyone was doing 90-100kms the speed limit was 110kms.. It's funny how I see another car got hit and I did not hit anyone because I can drive. And not everyone was driving like a good boy I can pick so many other skylines that was driving like a tool. P.s good cruise hope everyone had fun :)

sucks to see that c34 get rear ended, but i had a feeling something like that would happen given so many cars and people seeming to lose common sense. i almost ended up in the back of a commodore that stopped out of nowhere, thank god for good brakes and semi slicks.

Funny thin is at the start point walking around I was thinking - "someone will break down, some will get lost, someone will have an accident"... liked it better last year when I got lost.

Only went to the meet point and not on the cruise, still had a good time at the meet point though. Couldn't afford to do an oil change and put a full tank of fuel in the GTR for the cruise so went to the pub after the meet point :)

just because there was other being stupid doesn't make you any less stupid

a cruise with 500+ cars isn't the place to be racing around

      S15 Spec R

      A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      By Jarsky · Posted

      Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
