I had a great day thanks to SAU Qld for a well run cruise. Special thanks to Erin you did a grand job. At least the weather held out untill the end, I was lucky to miss the worst of it.

On the Ipswich motorway I set the cruise ctrl and about 3 bends before the tolls I hit a puddle (no rain) looked like just wet tarmac but aquaplaned me sideways for awhile, scary stuff. lucky there was no traffic.

Thanks to all you guys and girls for turning up and making this such a worthwhile event to run. Makes the cutting of 5 kilos of onions worth while :)

The official tally so far for funds raised at todays events totals $2500. Awesome effort guys! Special thanks to Giant from the forums for his personal contribution of $500 and a matching of that contribution with another $500 from his business RGM Maintenance Pty Ltd, making that a total donation of $1000 from one person!

Outstanding efforts guys! I'll be donating this money in person again at the RCH on Friday morning, so keep an ear out on B105 friday morning around 8am for the donation to be made :D

If all of you's had of hung around at the dam for an extra 30 or so minutes, you would have all missed the storms/rain and driven through some huge puddles that were heaps of fun!!

Once again, thanks to everyone that participated and made this event worthwhile yet again..

PS: I would like to apologise to the familes who's children heard my speech at Aspley car park, but unfortunately, those things have to be said so the idiotic behaviour is kept to a minimum.

Damn that was a fun day, i had a ball apart from my car playing up, and have a great truckie tan on my right arm from driving. I have to say i am amazed at the friendlyness of the people that came, not one single person was unpleasant wich is a far cry to what i am used to on the sunny coast (excluding all the skyline lads and a few others, you know where ya's are :):D). I cant wait for another outing like this, was a real pleasure meeting people in person.

Here's my 32 dwaffed by the r33 and r34 haha.

Erin thanks for organising the day, with help I am sure.

Sorry I left before you all left Aspley, I had family arrangements that were unavoidable.

I did however, stand along Albany Creek Rd and watch you all go past!!!!

Awesome sight, not to mention the Red Monaro Highway Patrol that followed...

The whole thing was pretty good for the size of the cruise. Just 2 things we might have to implement for the next one.

** workshops that brings car to advertise there ware should contribute a sizable donation and in return, get to set up table and hand out promotional brochures at designated points.

** ppls need to wear a tag of their nick, as I got tire, after the 100 time I asked ppls what their nick is after talking to them for 5 mins.

just a thought.

I dont think any worksops brought along any demo cars tbh?

none that i noted?

mick

hahaha

lol

:D

exactly my point. i own my car not the workshop. i dont work there, i just agree to put stickers on it as does willo :)

:(

anyyyway, awesome day.

keep all the pics coming!

Well, yesterday was fantastic. We had an awesome time. Some of those views after the turn-off to somerset dam were incredible :D

Thanks must go to everyone who joined in to help (ESPECIALLY ERIN for organising the whole thing!). Can't wait for the next one now :)

Anna

Awesome day, a huge thanks to Andrew, Dave, James etc for their efforts, they are most definitely appreciated. A special thanks to Erin too for being the driving force (excuse the pun :( ) behind the whole day and doing so much of the behind-the-scenes stuff that makes a day like this go as smoothly as it did.

AND... I believe this cruise lets us reclaim the throne to the BIGGEST SKYLINE MEET IN THE SOUTHERN HEMISPHERE, beating the previous best of 99 which (if memory serves) was set by SAU NSW. Good effort people :P

Great day! awesome amount of funds raised and a great drive.

Luckily I went the back way to the goldcoast, so missed the worst of the storms, but it also cut off part of the fun too :(

Overall went pretty well.. only disappointing thing was to see every hero do a burnout as they left though in a public park <_<

THANKS FOR A GREAT DAY GUYS!!

I was amazed at the good sensible driving displayed.

I had a great day, very well run, just wish i had stayed at the dam and missed the storm. (also had to take care of the other gtr that shit a turbo)

i thought it was a great thing to be part of, and it meant a fair bit to me as i have a three week old boy!! :(

well done Erin and co.!! good job

Hope to see some of you wednesday.

Cheers Russell

There was one following us? Those 2 police cars at aspley musta got scared and called in the big boys! :lol:

So what was the total car count in the end anyone know?

Well I lost count around the 80's as people went past...I was almost in tears laughing at you all trying to leave the Hyperhole...

Oh and yes he was following you...from a mate I think he kep going along Old Northern Road though, this one is based in Strathpine...

Thanks guys for a great day (Think i'v heard that before :( )

All you guys insist on living in Brisbane and the Gold Coast ie Storm Central. Come live up the Sunshine coast as its named that for a reason :) We cruised back from the dam through Peachester with Sunny weather and minimal cars only had to overtake a couple of 'sunday drivers'. Sorry to the car Red R33 GTSt behind me as we overtook a sunday driver, I hope my flames didn't scorch your paint work :P:D:D

Thanks again guys & gals, got some good pics.

Who was the mad bugger lying on the sweeping right hander coming up the range with a dam big camera? He would have some crackers if he's still alive :D

See you all next time

    • Brooooo Please send ABS control unit schematic Please! R33 gts25t ABS (Its two plug ecu, black and white) wire colors possible? [email protected]
    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
