good cruise. quite unlike any cruise ive been on before. somehow i made it to the end. i think the money i was going to spend on a bodykit will now be spent on a brake upgrade and better tyres.

i got some pics too, ill just see how many of em turned out. :(

sounded bit f**ked if you guys left others behind even if it is due to skill or lack of speed boo boo

Nothing like adding your 2cents when you weren't even there. :mellow:

Was good to meet some guys I'd not met before. Sambo, Jason, Chris and Pete was good to see you guys still with us at the end of the night. It was a nice bunch of cars. Apologies to those that got lost, due to certain 'boy in blue' episodes we couldn't stick around at a couple of corners we normally would have waited at to regroup.

Catch you next time.

Cheers,

Stu

hehehe i turn left when i should have gone right, and richo and the fellas followed me, at least we learnt not to park on the main drag.

the copper knew we'd be driving "hard" since you couldn't put your hand on my front rims for more than a second, almost burnt myself, :D

Nice to meet some new people even if we did get separated. :)

Yeah was great to meet youse all, that was me in the distance with my yellow fog lights on...

I too had a police car follow me between stirling to bridegwater to hahndorf.... waited at stirling on the 4th time there to see if anyone would be coming around - I kept seeing Skylines on the opposite side of the road between stirling / bridgewater and kept turning around trying to catch up..... never caught up tho, I wonder why? :D

Weird, as I was 5secs behind up old eagle hill rd (remeber boys, I got a family wagon, and safc tune was shagged due to more air from recent fmic install), but get to the top and noone around? where did you go to? was a real pity, as I wanted to stop again and chat to ppl's.

Was thinking about Mt Lofty summit, but decided I was well truley lost from the group (happens now and then with the bike group but we've since learnt to wait at turn off corners) :) so went down south to Clarendon and home.

Oh well, next time, Stagea is being retuned on Tuesday with a box of tricky gear, then we'll see how we go! But I certainly noticed that my cheap-arsed tyres are real cheap-arse! :)

yeah, was good to meet some new people, most of the guys on this cruise i had never met before. there were some very nice cars there too :D too bad none of my pictures turned out very good :) they were all either too blurry or too dark.

i missed out due to sick gf but sounded bit f**ked if you guys left others behind even if it is due to skill or lack of speed boo boo

NAH dude we broke up coz the piggies were out revenue raising again, meanwhile there was dazza the yobbo on meth holding up a servo with a syringe and the donut eaters were out makin money for mikey rann.

next time we should make it a little later or really early in the morning like about 3-4am

having said that, it will reduce the likelihood of people getting distracted/lost since there's light but still dark enough to be driving with a variation of speed on the streets *wink wink*

    • I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!  
    • Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
    • I'd say it's a fair bet that the feed and return fluid lines will be in different enough spots that you would need to come up with a way to cut the originals short and adapt with new hard line adaption or braided teflon hoses or somesuch. But really, you have the car, you have the photos of the DMAX rack - you should be able to go out there and see for yourself whether they're in the same or different spots.
    • I've been doing some looking around and honestly was just considering throwing a new rack at it. I saw that the dmax silvia rack bolts up into the 33 with the silvia bushings but not sure if the high pressure lines will sit in the correct spot. I believe other version of the 33 rack are the same/similar to the racks that can be opened up without as much fuss so I assume the dmax rack would fit but any ideas?
    • I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.
