oh!.. Hi! Where did you go off to? On the pachwy?

Hey, Yes just after i passed you guys, i got onto the old pac. I try and stay away from freeway, it puts me to sleep!

I did recognise you as to who u are on here because of your plates, but we were on the road, so hi anyway!

I took it very easy on the way back though, as i knew that some bad things had happened earlier, i saw fresh flowers on one corner, and im assuming that is where the poor rider went off.

:) sorry silver..

CB came in handy.. next time we goto get everyone together before we leave and say "we are going up the freeway, turn off at berowra and we'll regroup there"..

was a bit hectic doing some good old.. should we go this way.. should we go that.. than having to cut through traffic.. always fun.. with mintie coming up the rear :)

thats how mintie likes it

Supa lack of braking techonique, des'ka!!!!!!!! ;-)

But yeah, it was boiling hot. I kept turning the air con off during the Old Pac, and then turning it back on when we reached the little towns and stuff. Made me kind of glad that I don't have turbos....

LOL!!

"I'll show you my superior dorifto technique next time!"

:lol:

If there were Emmy awards for SAU Cruise videos, Menthu Rae and I would get one... just reviewing the video we took up to Avoca and back today, it is THE BEST!!!! Over 1 hour of quality and not-so-quality footage :) Comes complete with trance soundtrack and thundering Skyline engine sounds.

However, I'm not too sure about posting it up on the internet - some very incriminating stuff there :)

That is one reason why I was "circling" the pack - had to get some footage since there was such a diverse turnout :)

Links, it's still on MiniDV at the moment, will need to look into making it digital later... my cable is already spewing over 200mb worth of photos onto Imagestation.com :)

Dinner now - back later

    • 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.
