So we had a cruise up north today with the Newcastle guys

Unfortunately ( or fortunately ) depending on your point of view not many turned up

There was myself, Benji, J-Rad and Matt who turned up at the servo,

Anthony couldn't make it as his car wouldn't start for some reason, hope you get it sorted easily mate

Had a nice well behaved drive up the highway with the official newcastle photographer getting plenty of rolling shots of the cars then onto Wotten Way,

Man that is a great bit of road just a little to much debris for my liking with all the leaves etc but shows just how little use the road gets nowadays

After a run up Wotten and back we did a quick drive along the start of the lakes way and back again

Was s fun day with great weather and great roads, I think next time we do this run we should advertise it better as my original post did suck balls.

Oh and the best part of the day was when we were at the pub and Benji did admit that yes indeed he is a tool

But enough rambling bring on the pics

Successful cruise was successful. Thanks Martin for organising!!

Absolute great stretch of road and a very enjoyable drive. Enjoyed Wootton Way even more than the Putty Rd.

Yes, I'd say just about the only drawback of Wootten way was there was a bit of debris on the road... but I guess that's a small price to pay to enjoy a drive along road that basically seemed deserted lol

Some nice cars there and pics!

Yep, shame Big Bird didn't make an appearance, and my nugget got a damn screw through the tyre :/

Looking forward to the next one!

    • Has equal chance of cleaning an AFM and f**king an AFM. I think you can work out what happened. When the Hitachi ECU sees the AFM die and goes into the associated limp mode, then it will start and run just fine, because it ignores the AFM and just runs on idle maps that will do what it needs to get it going. But there is no proper load signal, so that's about all it can do. My suggestion? If you don't want to go full aftermaket ECU, then get some R35 GTR AFM cards and some housings to put them in, in the stock location, and Nistune the ECU. Better to do a good upgrade than just replace shitty 40 year old tech with the same 40 year old tech.
    • So my car was recently having trouble starting on initial crank, I would need to feather the gas for it to start up but besides that it would start and run fine. So I clicked the idle air control valve (with throttle body cleaner) and cleaned the MAF sensors (with MAF cleaner). The start up issue was fixed and now the car turns over without the assist of the throttle, but the car is in limp mode and wont rev past 2.5k RPM. From what I understand the IACV would not put the car in limp mode, so I am to believe it is the MAF sensors, but it was running fine before and now I cant get it out of limp mode. I cleaned the MAF made sure the o rings were seated properly. Made sure the cables were plugged in properly, the cables also both read the same voltage. Does anybody know why this is or what could be causing this or how to get it out of limp mode?
    • Ooo I might actually come and bring the kids, however will leave the shit box home and take the daily
    • Thanks. Yeah I realised that there's no way I'd be able to cover the holes with the filler, it would just fall through. Thanks again @GTSBoy!
    • That was the reason I asked. If you were going to be fully bodge spec, then that type of filler is the extreme bodge way to fill a large gap. But seeing as you're going to use glass sheet, I would only use that fibre reinforced filler if there are places that need a "bit more" after you've finished laying in the sheet. Which, ideally, you wouldn't. You might use a blob of it underneath the sheet, if you need to provide some support from under to keep the level of your sheet repair up as high as it needs to be, to minimise the amount of filler you need on top. Even though you're going bodge spec here, using glass instead of metal, the same rules apply wrt not having half inch deep filler on the top of the repair. Thick filler always ends up shitting the bed earlier than thin filler.
