hahaha anton, u legend....my car looks like its the head of the pack...hahaha. ill get around to uploading those pics when i get home from work...

monthly cruise idea definatly sounds good.

good to catch up with some normal people with common intrests, look forward to seeing you all again.

cheers

Linton

yeah I was thinking about coming along on the cruise. thing is I don't really go in much on cruises. I was gonna post up and ask how much social and how much is driving, i know it's sound stupid, but i'd prefer the social side of things... haha

How many of the skyline owners down at the foreshore are from here....I'd feel like an idiot just rocking up "you guys from SAU? no..umm....nice weather eh?"

Sorry, I am good when I know ppl, but heaps shy when I don't.

Anyone know who the other silver 4dr 32 owner is? or is he/she not part of these forums?

eXc....thats what i did...haha... just rocked up and said hey. some old dude with a young chicky babe rocked up aswell...looked at a few cars, hardly said a word, and then took off.

ive been on a few cruises over the years...not saying im an expert though, if you get there on or before the posted time, there is a good chance to socialise and its easier to meet ppl as they turn up, rather than you rocking up to a large group. before and after the cruise theres alot of conversations going on, also talking through windows at traffic lights and what not. its just a good day. bring a friend if you dont like driving on your own, or organise to jump in someone elses car..

we dont bite....and we all like skylines, no matter what they are... hell there was an atmo s13 silvia that rocked up and noone cared that it wasnt a skyline, he was a pretty cool guy.

just come along next cruise and hang out. if you dont wanna cruise, then you dont have to, just come up and say hey.

cheers

Linton

Yea the guy in the silvia was my mate.

I saw that silver 4 door as well.

Also eXc the day pretty much went like this for me.

Went for a drive and did a few laps, had lunch.

Went to the meeting point half a hour early and 1 other skyline was there.

Talked to him and over the next hour 12 or so others showed up... we all talked for another hour or so then decided to go for a little cruise to spears point.

Drove there and parked, people took some more pics and talked for another hour or so.

Theen it was getting dark and cold so we all parted. Was a mad day. Not 1 cop bothered us either!

Come on the next one to the central coast!

hey guys

tops day!

The sight and sound of so many performance cars running across the top of Charlestown was awesome!

Much better than our pathetic 3-4 car cruises we have once in a blue moon.

My pics are up in my gallery

Hope to do it again soon as it was great meeting you guys and just standing around talking for ages.

eXc i was in the same position not knowing anyone.

Meeting Dean randomly the day before helped me brush up on my interactive skills a bit before meeting all the other boys. Top bunch, i thought that there may have been one or two snobs in the group, but nopes, everyone was freindly and stuff! When i got home my girl said that she couldnt believe the smile on my face, it was seriously great fun, especially the drive through Charlestown next to that rex :P

Ohhh, the only bad part was when i missed the turn off to Warners Bay LOL!!!!

What do you guys think of those little UHF hand held radio's?

Or is that a bit too over the top? Cause i really could have used it when i missed the turn and didnt know where to go, cause i didnt have anyone mobile phone mubers either...

Here's a link to those UHF talkies...(Click here)

yeah we use two ways on our cruises.

Helps with directions, and if people get caught at lights, but once you start knowing everybody else a bit more it's actually a lot more fun to chat while your driving :P

Especially if your the only one in your car.

Only problem we've found so far with them is that they become virtually useless around the Sydney area because of the amount of others using the airwaves down there.

But those of us clever enough not too live in a capital city don't have to worry about that too much now do we :headspin:

UHF's are good, i have one in the car all the time, but usually no one has one or their batteries are flat. If you have one bring it along to the next cruise...definetly helps if you get lost or miss turn offs. hehe

So how many of the skyline drivers down at the foreshore are members on here? Is it most them?

Is the foreshore still as crowded as it used to be? Or has it calmed down? I know on Sunday it was calm as...but I was told there was some event there or something.

hi all, We go cruising to newcastle every weekend from the central coast and hang out at the foreshore with all my another mate (mostly all nissan) which looks good with all the another nissan up there because there are heaps of them. so far 2 of us are members with a skyline R32 4door and a R33 4door.

p.s. those UHF's are great we use them all the time its good fun.

Kmart is the best place to get them 4 handheld cb's 40 chanels for only $90 go to the cd and moblie phone section. injoy.

iva always thought those uhfs were a great idea, but thought it was lame to bring it up...nice to others are as lame as me

they'd save heaps of money on mobiles and make it easier to talk to others while driving.

or thr front runner could just have a megaphone set up like the cops haha, that would be mad.

just wondering if anyone else from this small nit group is at all keen on drifting?? as in track days and stuff like that.

ive just ordered some pinapples, spin turn knob and a hicas cancelling bar.

ill get those pics up soon...

cheers

Linton

Hey guys. Have to say the cruise was good fun. Never been on one before so its good to see such a nice bunch of cars in one place :kewl: Linton im hearing you on the drifting thing. Only thing is we probably have to go to eastern creek/oran park. Thats a bit of a drive. How much did the pinapples cost as im thinking of getting a set to. :D

    • LOL, all of the CAI like Craig I just need to put a hole saw through my bumper Done and dusted, the car runs, which is nice, I'll take it for a spin when the weather clears up Just need to put the bumper back on for good
    • Brooooo Please send ABS control unit schematic Please! R33 gts25t ABS (Its two plug ecu, black and white) wire colors possible? [email protected]
    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
