look i don't think this topic really needs to be descussed on here you do not know who's reading so i would appreciate it if people didn't talk about it. and drive at a speed they feel comfortable with as alot of people did

WTF??  Dude I only paid 120ish for mine......you 100% sure about that figure??

yea im with that... altho i only paid $60.

$400 is a bit hmmm...

Custom plates are $1900 one off. (ACT)

And in NSW you can pay them yearly at $300 a yr.

And whats wrong with pink plates Shaun?

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......

yeah sept i think the news headline people will be able to spell "causes" :lol:

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.

    • Please use a modern ECU. PowerFC with the Nintendo Gameboy controller is horrible. It's not 2005 anymore.
    • The car/ECU will have all the sensor that it needs and expect to have. I think i do not have to explain to you how the Link is way better specialy if you have swapped engine   I just do not want to deal with any "problems" cuz i have only Nistune which i learned is not that great and in my case cant even deal with that speed problem (Link can) And of course it will be way more easier to tune and diagnose and safe. And for the ECU/speed problem...i dont know.
    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
