Hello Everyone,

To get excited and pumped for the next big cruise I am hosting in late september, Ive decided to host a mini-cruise on Friday night, 29th august.

We will meet at casula bunnings around 8:30, and jump on the freeway at 9pm and head over to botany using the M5/M1 and the tunnels needed to get there :)

Here is the link, : https://www.google.com.au/maps/dir/-33.9583311,150.8801537/-33.9838379,151.2127246/@-33.9478239,150.9040276,4017m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m9!4m8!1m5!3m4!1m2!1d150.9057971!2d-33.9491761!3s0x6b1294e220dbde75:0x13017d67e7b123b0!1m0!3e0?hl=en

hope that works,

This is just a quick slap together friday night cruise to meet up and have a chat, snap a few pictures and then head home.

Open for suggestions to start earlier/later, but for now leave it as it is. :)

Should only take around 30-45 minutes depending on roadworks, but of a friday night hopefully we will be against most of the traffic.

Feel free to PM/ask any questions,

Hope to see a lot of you there, and start getting excited for september :)

Josh.

Sounds fun. Hopefully I'm working day shift and I can come along. I'll keep you updated :)

Sounds good brenno, be a nice friday night get together. I only thought of it the other day, and i wanna pump up this september cruise. Pray for a sunny spring.

I am in for this, well at least part of it; I am away for work earlier that week, so won't really have the 'credits' to have a full night out!

Also count me in for September, as long as it isn't the 14th (my son's birthday).

what time do you reckon you'd get to botany? because it's like i would be going to casula then back to botany haha (I'm like 20 mins from botany). Just so i could sit on a road you guys would go past then just jump on the back of the cruise :)

Depending on the road work inbetween the hume hwy ( liverpool onramp ) and the M5 tunnel.

I really dont expect this cruise to go for anything more than 30-45 minutes. Its more the places we are meeting up/driving too that would take the longest with the hangout session :)

And Aiken, its definitly after the 14th :).

I am pming Terry the details tonight, and hooking up a pre-cruise scout. I will definitly have all the details on this friday night cruise though :)

If you have any friends not on SAU with skylines let them know. Im pretty biast when it come's to what forums/webpages i post cruises on, but only because of the quality people that exist on SAU :)

Any questions feel free to keep firing guys.

Righto,

I hate to say it, but we need a plan b. this rain doesnt look like its going anywhere, and im sure none of us will be too impressed standing in the rain at botany.

An underground carpark is what im thinking at the moment.

Any suggestions?

Otherwise we might have to post-pone

Obviously we dont have to go to botany, we can get off at rockdale and head back into sutherland.

Open to ideas.

Wow.

My post early today didnt come through on the phone, amazing.

Plan b is we will turn off at the princes freeway and head to miranda fair, where they have a carpark that offers 90 minutes free and is open until 12am.

All sorted gents, we will all decide on friday night.

    • Yeah I've had too many issues with knock off's on the BMW's. I don't want to do a job twice or more because the parts are shit.
    • I read this and thought "ah! I will do this scissor jack on the tow point thing!" I just use my floor/low profile/costco jack and lift the car up by the tow hook itself, then slide jack stands under. Never thought about using scissor into floor jack combo :p
    • Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!    
    • So, I'm back with bad news. There's no jack long enough on this planet that will reach the front subframe. If by some chance there is, it would weigh 200lb's.  I purchased a long reach jack... The damn thing weighted 120lb's and was massive. Didn't even come close, was still short at least a foot. It was a pain, but I brought it back. Next I decided HA! No problem, I'll get an Extra long reach jack. Well, I couldn't lift the box... It must have weighed 160LB's and luckily there was an open box in store. I took measurement and was still nowhere close.  Sadly I've lost hope and have accepted defeat. 
    • Thanks for that tip, niZmO_Man. I think the battery is OK. It's quite a new one, but I'll check. Last time I needed a new battery, everything electronic was fine, except that there wasn't enough current to turn over the starter. I decided to order one of the partial AV system translation CDs from Car Audio Workshop in NZ. That might have some effect, or help me diagnose the date problem. 🤞
