Always end up exhausted and sunburnt after a Putty cruise!

Thanks to the organisers and execs for not only a great cruise, but also an amazing year of social and Motorsport events. You have all excelled in your roles.

I had a great day guys, as did my daughter. I hope the rest of the run was great and everyone got their cars home unscathed. Thanks to Chris for organising and thanks to everyone who came along, it was great chatting with those I got to catch up with

Great cruise indeed. I enjoyed a lot more than last year. Sorry to those ppl got confused by me getting lost right before royal singleton hotel...

Saw a gunmetal grey 32 crashed really badly in the arvo on our way back from the entrance... On Cumberland highway. Hope it does not belong to any of the members.

Bobby's as some might recall, was the R32 GT-R in the Cover Feature of Daily Telegraph Cars Guide about the upcoming 21st Anniversary of the R32 GT-R

... put on by SAU.NSW, from Tench Park Penrith to Katoomba Edge Cinema 10/10/10.

SAU.NSW hired out the whole iMax Cinema to screen (with Channel 7's permission) the 1992 Bathurst Race.

Unfortunately my GoPro decided today was the day to be Faulty, got maybe 5 minutes of usable footage :angry:

Was a Great day, The choice to drive down from Newcastle for the whole cruise was well worth it.

I would like to say an official thanks to Grease for the photo of my car showing off it's flame skills.

Was a great run boys! Thanks for the smiles! [emoji3]

Mad shot!!! I wasn't too keen at putting all the power down the street but still had some awesome fun with you throughout the cruise!

Excellent cruise SAU! Thanks for organizing!! One of the best cruise I've had so far!

Cheers

    • Well, yes, every CU on the bus is available via the Consult port, but whether the scanner you are using is capable of talking to the TCU, the ABS/TCS modules, etc etc, is what is at question here. Many of them are only for engine codes. So, if you have one of those, you won't know if the ABS is having a bitch.
    • That's now. R chassis Skylines come from a time when the tolerance in the ADRs was a bit more....slack. My car, on 235/35-17, which is damn near the exact same size as the original 205/55-16, is pretty much bang on correct indicated speed across the whole legal range. That's demonstrated with constant speed run over 5km, and GPS speed. It's just the luck of the draw. My particular speedo head has to be the thing that is "calibrated" that way, because everything else (the diff ratio, the gearbox and the speedo drive**) are all same same as most other Skylines. **OK, so the speedo drive is a Navara unit to drive the R32's cable, not the electronic unit than an R33/4 would normally have with teh same gear on it. Otherwise, I applaud your OCD tendencies, and I would do the same if I needed to.
    • Not too sure, I believe the Nissan consult port does everything? Also just filled up the reservoir to full and the light is still on. The float seems to move up and down fine.
    • The speedo's can be very conservative, when my Mazda NC MX5 speedo is showing 118kph, the GPS, and a calibrated radar.... cop mate.....hits me at around 110kph +/- 1 or 2 kph, and that is on a 215/45 17, stock tyres size is 205/45 17 as well, so weirdly conservative with stock tyre size When my Commodore speedo red 116kph GPS had me at 110kph on 255/40 17, so again conservative Google says manufacturers need to set the speedo from 4 to 10% slower than actual road speed.....for safety.....and compliance  After doing some offset and clearance measurements to see what can fit the NC on 17x8 +40, without guard rolling or rubbing anything at my current ride height, I've decided that when my tyres are toast, I'm going to fit 225/45 17 and see where that gets me IRT actual speed of my speedo and GPS/radar From the online calculator I should be still be doing around 5kph under an actual 110kph when the speedo is showing 110kph My ADHD requires that when I'm doing 110kph on the speedo, that the actual road speed is actually really close to that, and not alot slower And going from 205 to 225 still keeps the car within the %/mm allowable in the NSW vehicle rules and regulations, which is nice, as long as I'm looking at the latest version that is.....LOL https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-13.464-Light-vehicle-modifications-Vehicle-Standards-Information-No-6-November-2013.pdf
    • Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.
