Just a question, I don't know any members in here but I own a skyline can I join the cruise?

Yer mate for sure just let us know what side of Brisbane you're coming from and we should be able to guide you in the direction of a pre meet :)

Thanks for that I live near garden city

Hey mate,

You would be best off meeting the guys at Yatala BP at 8 and heading up with them. If you don't know anyone, it's better to head to a pre-meet, meet a couple of people and cruise in with them. :)

Hope that helps.

ok Cant wait to be there thanks again

Nice little drive it is. Should be good fun go pro footage will be recording on the day.

It's a great run - if you have the right tyres. I had the crap ones that feel like they're carved out of stone on there and it was sliding everywhere!

So you are definitely going Andy???

North side meet is at the north bound BP at caboolture.

yup, scouting run was great despite epic rain. its approx 180km trip to lakeside from our start point and if we leave at a lazy 8:30am we will arrive at the meet point right on 10am :)

So you are definitely going Andy???

Please come dave, I wanna see this car of yours :)

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
