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.

    • 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
