Eoi Cruise In Memory Of Brian O'connor (Paul Walker)


Recommended Posts

Just interested to see if anyone is keen to do a cruise in memory of Paul Walker.

As he was a car enthusiast and his pick of cars was the nissan GTR family

I feel it would be a good thing to do.

I dont have dates or times as it is EOI. Any idears, tips or help would be great

I did try to post this up on sunday but it didnt make it on to the web site and have

since noticed a club caled downshift australia have also organised a charity cruse

for Paul Walker and are expecting 700+ cars to attend. Maybe we can combind

both parties together. What is everyones thoughts

The DS cruise is donating to the charity that Paul was working for when he was killed. It's his charity I believe, reach out world wide.

I would love to do a cruise in my skyline for him but I'm in NSW and can't make the DS one

yeh im not sure how they do a charity for his death. What i think is Paul Walker was doing a charity car cuise when the crash happend for the natural disaster in the philippines. The organization was caled REACH OUT WORLD WIDE so from what i understand is this downshift club is doing this charity in memory for Paul Walker and to fundraise for ROWW

I was toying with the idea of going to the DS cruise. I've heard they get some police attention at their meets as well which may not be the best.

an issue thats aparently been fixed. im going for sure this will be on par with Jaf's in adelaide which sees 1000 plus caras yearly

LOL how to you stop police from pulling over cars on a public road? especially when there meets are known for high amounts of illegally poorly modified cars and had a crack at the police in brisbane times...

Be like saying Im opening up a herion station in a park... but its for charity so the police presence has been fixed.

Letters have been going back and forth between DS, Campbell Newman & QPS. I believe I read that even Newman criticised the actions of the QPS on the meet a few months back with the mass defect station

Public safety is the priority for the police.

Downshift are a business and make money by allowing blatantly defectable cars into their meets (no internal efforts to clean up their own image).

End of the day it takes a ten minute google search to find people consistently complaining about burnouts each month, google images shows the types of vehicles that go, there was a car written off at one meet and downshift put up images on their facebook of cars doing burnouts and saying f**k you to the new laws....

Wouldnt be hard for QPS to put forward a legitimate case for their actions.

    • The boot notch on the GK Tech rods is different to OEM yes. You'll find a solution. They are a good rod, I have used many of them for various setups, and no they are not ' just for drift cars', they are fine as an OEM replacement. Same goes for the tie rod ends although I found they transmitted a huge amount of NVH a normal balljoint masks, making it feel like there was something loose or knocking, even though there wasn't. If you used the same pieces on each side, no reason one angle should be different to the other side. Have you checked ride heights/measured the angles? Or just visual? Your alignment will be massively out of whack yes. Up to you; it is worth taking the time to learn wheel alignments and do it yourself. I have never had better wheel alignments and I haven't taken my car to a shop for, dunno...many many years. Spend a few hundred on equipment, do alot of research via online articles, youtube vids, and "trial and error" on setups. Eg, set it with too much toe-out, toe-in, too much or little caster, drive the same stretch of awesome twisty mountain road each time, learn how they feel and how the car's handling has reacted to your changes.
    • Won’t be hard to beat them. 🤣 Farken sponge cakes!
    • Nah I did not will have to another time. I only installed a blitz return flow FMIC probably 1000kms ago. When I took the old piping off there was basically no oil in piping. At this stage it has to be valve stem seals. When I roll down a big hill in gear and then throttle down the bottom, I get the same puff of smoke.
    • I believe when they added coolant to cool the turbo it negated the need for turbo timers as water continues to flow even when the engine is shut off I forget the actual terminology, I'll just say the coolant "percolates" through the turbo which stops the oil cooking itself to death  Well....that's how I see it, as all the plant at work that has coolant lines to the turbo can be shut down straight away, whereas the older plant with only oil feed to the turbo you need to idle it for a few minutes
