Massive Skyline Cruise III - Comments/Suggestions/Photos


Recommended Posts

Just starting a thread for people to post their photos and comments and suggestions to be made for the next run.

Thanks to everyone for turning up and breaking yet another record for the Massive Skyline Cruise. I believe I was told there were 87 cars (including the two cefiro's and one stagea) which still breaks last massive skyline cruises total anyway.

I personally would like to congratulate everyone for being on their best behaviour and showing to the public that we really are normal people there to help others out.

I would also like to personally thank Mike (Oz) for his contribution to the foundation. He was the highest single donater for the day. Thanks Mike! :)

Just to let you all know, I will be personally handing over the cash to the B105 Christmas Appeal this coming Friday morning at the Royal Childrens Hospital. So be listening to the radio this Friday :)

But yeah, once again, thanks to everyone that made the effort to donate money and to maybe save a childs life.

As it stands, there was $593.65 donated in cash on the day with the official total to be finalised at the end of the auction.

Andrew will be posting pics tonight. Also, anyone (looking at Knore here) with video footage and photos, could you please email them to me at skyzer @ optushome.com.au so Andrew can compile a nice little video of the day.

PS and also thanks to the cop for donating his $2.50 when I bailed him up at the Lake :(

Can't half tell I was nervous. Thanks to B105 for sending it through to me :(

Im exhuasted and partially sunburnt which is the prerequisites for a good day cruise :headspin:

I took some photos but nothing special, ive got about 40min of video though :(

Will cut it down into 10-15min, just gotta buy a firewire card and do some editing then ill post it up for those who didnt attend to envy and those who did to enjoy

:headbang:

What an awsome turnout!!! So many nice cars!! I spent most of the time walking around taking pics of them all. Nice meeting you to nismogirl even though i didnt introduce myself, i was riding in the burgandy r33 with the big arrow decals down the side and the big twin cannons you parked next to at the lake. Good to see everyone was very friendly and well behaved. :) It's also good to put faces to names and cars. I took about 130 pics hahah then run out of memory :(

To those who unfortunately missed a good cruise, if you would still like to donate, drop me a PM and I'll pass over my bank details.

You'll have till Thursday morning at the lastest to have the money in my account.. So transferred no later than Tuesday night.

Yeah i saw you go past and waited for you to park but you did a lap then took off! You should have stayed, had many good chin wags with the other line owners, all in all it was a great day :)

This was my first and best skyline cruise ever - I'll be back for more. I remember driving on one of those longs roads and all I could see was skylines to the front and back of me. It would have to of been at least 3 kilometers of skylines. I view I Will treasure forever :(

After I have a big snooze I'll post up some of my pictures and make some suggestions if I can think of any.

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
