thanks mate, i will pm everyone involved the details tonight.

I'll have some white ribbon for everyone to put on your cars :)

Attending:

Stan and Eric (2 White R34's)

Me and Lenno (2 Dark Grey R33's)

Dave and Josh (2 Blue R33's)

Sorry to everyone else who said they could make it, but i can only have this many cars involved, and i wanted to colour co-ordinate :D

Should make for some great photos. :D

Thanks again Guys

LOL - whatever stan!!

The girls know where a good things at, so of course they'll be riding shotgun with me :PBJ:

Re Eric: How kind of him!! :D

Im really looking forward to it.

Your lucky u finally got in on this too Josh!! Thought i was gonna be the lone blue ranger haha.

On a slightly different topic, do any of you guys have any mesh grill stuff to put in where the GTR grill should sit? Im struggling to find the friggin stuff!!

Haha; I have insider information.... and sif the bridesmaids want to travel in a boat :D The whole idea of this cruise is to DRIVE them to the church :P

EDIT: Yes, Eric does swing both ways... ain't that right Eric :(

Oh, for that grille... pop down to your local autoshop... there is some "full sik" grilles you can buy

Otherwise, go to your hardware/gardening place... black mesh can be purchased for cheap!

Roger that.

I shall check this 'fully sick' mesh out.

I dont want friggin ricer excel shit though. So ill probably go to the hardware store or even a security screen door place so - to get that hard fly mesh they sometimes put on security doors this days.

Back on topic now,

What do you want us to wear Chris? I think i speak on behave on all of the chauffeur's (I friggin spent about 10 mins trying to figure out how you spell that word!!) when i say that im unsure of the appropriate attire for this occasion and also the reception too.

-Dayyyyyyvvvveeeeee.

try rampage or autobaun at maitland :(

Just dress neat....nice pants collar shirt etc....tie optional. up to you.

dress is smart casual/semi formal

One week!!

*yay* :P

ANyone keen on meeting up in Newcastle and driving down to Chris's house at the scheduled time. That way we'll all arrive at his place at once rather then in dribs and drabs.

It also means we get there on time and not late!!

Any meeting time suggestions?

up to you guys but may as well just meet at my place....if you have a prior meeting place, someone could be late, making everyone late.

ribbons need to be put on the cars, so they could be done while waiting for others.

Hey Chris, we from Sydney are GOOD TO GO! Big story to tell once we're there... my number is 0415 263 309 please give me a call when you read this to see where we are and if there are any delays.

If any of the other guys could pass this onto Chris if you know him that would be good, I know he must be busy this morning!

Yeah today went really really well... except for the ribbon on my car (damn mechanic, should never let them try staying clean)

Congratulations Chris, hope you and your lovely wife have many many many fruitful memories and years to come :rolleyes:

It was really really nice to have a whole procession talking about cars after the ceremony ;)

I thoroughly enjoyed that, and as Dave said... thanks to Chris for letting us join on his special day!

    • The downside of this is when you try to track the car, as soon as you hit ABS you get introduced to a unbled system. I want to avoid this. I do not want to bleed/flush/jack up the car twice just to bleed the f**kin car.
    • But again, the engineers said your cast aluminium would be fine based on the load that would be stretching that section. Same load stretching the bolts in a flex (not the twist), with a much smaller cross sectional area than the original part you've broken. It's why you'd need to be using higher strength bolts, but that's just making up for the strength you lose with less area...
    • I am truly amazed someone on this planet was able to cycle the pump using a scan tool. I've always ghetto cycled them on Nissan 90s shit boxes by slamming the brakes and pulling the handbrake to agitate the rear wheels enough to cause a speed difference
    • I didn't actually try it at the time but a Launch X431 with the appropriate software licenses/upsell will have the ABS bleed function. The Consult II you can still find some old sets of equipment but they're really, really expensive:   
    • Well I'll start by saying I'm not an engineer. I am going to go with the KiwiCNC ones.  They are made of 7050 alloy have good fillets and radius.  The material alone is in the order of double the strength and fatigue resistance - Those bolts, once torqued correctly place most of the load at the flat face of the mating surface - the 'stretch' you're talking about through torqueing them up would be far more than the extra stretch 'load' placed on them from a steering input or bump. (in my opinion) so I doubt they would flinch.    - but again "not an engineer".      oh and I don't think stitch welding 7050 is a good idea, likely just weaken the material (from what I read)
