I just checked on line again and was trilled to see the response. I'm new to car cruise thing but would love to meet up with anyone skylines or what. I'm not really worried about the age thing but it would be good to have some older than 20. if you know what i mean. if you want to organise a weekend drive somewhere that would be great. is it too cold for a BBQ? Any suggestions would be good. we can start and work something out....

I don't think you'll find age is too much of an issue on most of the things SAU does, as there are a few different age groups out there. We try and stay clear of the "fulsik" brigade..

Good to hear that we can have good days without the "fulsik". What ever that is but I have an idea. But I'm looking forward to meeting new people and having some great weekends out cruising..we will try and work out a day and everyone can come. please help out..

Jas, I'm the events co-ordinator for the qld skyline club and we've got a pretty full events calendar over the next few months so feel free to organise a cruise on behalf of the forum members. But just be made aware, that people are a bit hesitant to attend a cruise organised by someone they don't know. So get out there and attend events and become known amongst the chumps.

As people have stated above, build it and they will come. No point having heaps of people sitting here saying they want crusies/meets if no ones willing to put their hand up and take charge :rofl:

Bribie sound nice, and I dont think we've been out there for a cruise, lots of nice big parks over there, depending on where you want to go.

And it is dead simple to organise a cruise:

1. State meet point and time. Meet point should be easily found by people who are not locals to it, ie Yatala BP, Morayfield BP, etc etc.

2. Figure out a route, and keep it simple.

3. Have a CB or handheld radio on the day to be able to hear what is going on behind/infront of you.

4. State length and what people will need to bring with them, ie food/chairs/warm clothes/etc.

And then turn up! easy!

Ska, Thanks for that advice. I will sort out some dates and start getting things organised. Looks like we have to get a hand held radio. Seems like it would be the easiest way to keep track if there is a few of us.

Tell me! How old are you really???? lol

I hope that you can make the cruise when it happens.

    • @Murray_Calavera  If I were an expert I wouldn't be in here looking for assistance.  I am extremely computer literate, have above average understanding on how things should be working and how they should tie together.  If I need to go to a professional tuner so be it, but I'd much rather learn and do things myself even if it means looking for some guidance along the way and blowing up a few engines. @GTSBoy  I was hoping it would be as simple as a large vacuum leak somewhere but I'm unable to find anything, all lines seem to be well capped or going where they need to be, and when removed there is vacuum felt on the tube.  It would be odd for the Haltech built in MAP to be faulty, the GTT tune I imported had it enabled from the start, I incorrectly assumed it was reading a signal from the stock MAP, but that doesn't exist.  After running a vacuum hose to the ECU the signal doesn't change more than 0.2 in either direction.   I'll probably upload a video of my settings tomorrow, as it stands I'm able to daily drive, but getting stuttering when giving it gas from idle, so pulling away from lights is a slow process of revving it up and feathering the clutch until its moving, then it will accelerate fine.  It sounds like I need to get to the bottom of the manifold pressure issue, but the ignition timing section is most intimidating to me and will probably let a pro do that part.  Tomorrow I'll try a different vacuum line to T off of, with any luck I selected one that was already bypassed during the DBW swap. @feartherb26  I do have +T in the works but wanted to wait until Spring to start with that swap since this is my good winter AWD vehicle.  When removing the butterfly, did it leave a bunch of holes in the manifold that you needed to plug?  I thought about removing it but assumed it would be a mess.   I notice no difference when capping the vacuum line to it or letting it do its thing.  This whole thing has convinced me to just get a forward facing manifold when the time comes though.
    • Update: tested my spark plugs that are supposed to be 5ohms with a 10% deviation and one gave me a 0 ohms reading and the rest were 3.9ohm<, so one bad and the others on their way out.
    • 9" wheels are a little too wide for a RWD 32. They can fit. People have put R33 GTR wheels on 32s for years and years. But they are a very tight squeeze. This has been known for about 30 years. As I said - there is no difference between a 17 and an 18 in terms of what will fit. The rolling diameter needs to stay about the same as stock - not very much larger. If you increase that, you will start to have problems. If you increae rolling diamater at the same time as yo increase width, you will have problems earlier. as 9" wheels are pushing the boundaries already, you would need to be careful with tyre choice. I would put 8.5s on the front of mine, but would expect problems with 9s.

    • Diagnostic flow for a code 21 says check signal at the ECU pins, on a voltmeter of some kind it should read 0.1V at idle, 0.12V cranking, 0.15-0.25V at 2000 rpm. Check each coil such that +1, -3 is infinite or very high resistance, -3, +2 should do the same. (-1, +3), (+3, -2), (+1, -2), and (-1, +2) should all be somewhere between 0 ohms and high resistance. If you trace the path from the coil pin all the way back to the ECU in the diagram the resistance you measure at the coil vs connected to the harness should be pretty much the same.
