Gday Folks, I attended the cruise and i can only say one thing, what an utter waste of police resources.... sending 5 cars and 6 officers out to Newton to try and defect as many cars as possible (yes they did say that :D ), for over 2 hours. I for one am shocked and amazed at the actions of these officers, and would encourage anyone who came on the cruise to complain in all appropriate channels:

The Police cars in attendance were:

XQD 555

XQD 093

XQD 363

XQE 377

WQX 371

The Officers at the scene were: (only managed to get 1 name, but all numbers)

1964 (did not reveal name when asked politely .... i thought this was legal requirement if asked??)

4690

7244

8812

1817

2159

And the channels for complaint:

SA Police:

Ph: 08 8207 5000

Cheers

Robbo

Yeah, its no good..... :D Lucky i wasn't driving... was with a mate in an r31 and another in a soarer, they didn't get done, but i saw numerous imports receive a defect and overheard one officer accuse the owner of a (from what i could see) stock r33 gtr of doing 'burnouts'.... even after he explained that it would be hard to do in a 4wd car :)

ridiculous, simply ridiculous and completely unjustified is all i can say... i really do hope a lot of people put in some complaints...

yeah I didn't get done - the officer was quite polite to me and told me I had a really nice car :D

Total waste of resources though - I hope everyone writes an email to the approriate people - I know I will!

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
