S A U - Act Cruise To The 2013 Nationals In S.a ?


Recommended Posts

On a straight shitty road with cops everywhere... Yeah awesome...

I'd be towing it if I was going. I don't see the point in wasting fuel and tyre wear on a drive like that either.

~12 hours better spent in the X5!

Different cars for different applications.

The Drive isn't that bad.Doing it in 1 day is fine. People need to harden up.

We used to stay at Mildura... was the only half decent place on the way lol... and then a fairly short drive the next day.

I'm with Kat, such shitness of shit drive :D

gtr.

only car I currently own.

so thats what itll be.

Funs what you make it. Would be good to have several skylines actually drive over but not essential.

Bit of lone wolf anyway and I enjoy it that way.

Edit: the Internet is social exposure :P

At the moment I'm getting 300km out of a tank. Consumables alone, driving the GTR there would just makes no sense. But that aside unfortunately I can't go anyway (unless I decide to fly down just for the weekend closer to the time) so there better be lots of photos!

really?

even on highway?

im hoping to get 450-500 a tank on freeway....

and what is a tank?

My tank is 65L, the most I have put in is 52L.

52.15L / 404km=12.92L / 100km <<----- round town

so I had another 100km before empty = 500km / tank

Best on Hwy is 10.54L / 100km so I should be able to push 600km / tank...

GTR is 75L yes?

    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
