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.

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.

      AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.

      As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.

      spot the stagea

      It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack.

      Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
