I think everyone had their fair share of "limit exceeding" and thankfully no one got done by the revenue boyz.  So i dont see the point in hackin on us, were all SAU anyway.

i think what he's more trying to say is that the last thing we need/want to see is a skyline split in half and a headline "CAR CLUB STREET RACE CASUES DEATH." the last thing SAU needs is to be blamed for a death as a result of the driving of someone.

And yes, i'm 16 and only young what would i know bla bla bla, but this is my 2cents :rolleyes:

im not having a dig at anyone, i wasn't even on the cruise. im just saying, word gets around, and if people find out there are high powered cars being driven by young drivers at ridiculous speeds, who are members of SAU, the club gets the bad name, not just the person(s). there were more than just SAU'ers there that night, who wont want to keep these little events to themselves and tell everyone about how cool it was and that everyone was racing and blah blah blah...... next thing you know, cops show up and bust us all. its happened before and some people on here, (who shall remain nameless), know exactly what im talking about......

just a warning......

Id just like to add...

To the organisers of these cruises: There ARE 24/7 monitered cameras all across the museum carpark, and the security guards have no problems seeing your number plates quite clearly through these cameras.

Why am I bringing this up? Due to the sheer amount of dickheads who decide to lose traction, speed and any commit any other form of negligent driving through a carpark with a 10km/h speed limit.

Please dont ruin what was once a good meeting spot, where the police would come and talk to us in a friendly manner by acting like complete idiots. Hume exists for a reason if youre that way inclined. The responsibility is on the organiser(s) of this cruise to keep their crowd under control.

I am confused...

I was on the cruise and i did not see any of this sort of bad behaviour...

The only thing i saw (which i found quite amusing) was a big white van trying to get air off a mound...

The Skylines were all well behaved from what i saw... at the museum/civic/braddon anyway...

i think this has been blown out of proportion unless something was done after i left ??? plus as stated i dont think it needs to be brought up on a public forum some people had some spirited driving out to the museum thats fine a couple of us hung back no one was forced to do anything they didnt want to do so meh its all good

I too think this has been blown well out of proportion. There were only a few people that displayed spirited driving on the way up to the Museum(nothing out of the ordinary on a Friday night).

Overall it was an awesome night and big thanks to Slither for organising it and geting so many people to show up etc. As stated before, I'm definately up for cruising this Friday night.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics

      @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?

      Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
