Nightcrawler has suggested we do a private drag day, i.e. hire the AIR track. John (Munro) has given us the basic details, $3500 all up to hire the track including track preparation, timing equipment, officials, fire/ambo etc. So, to start the ball rolling, who's keen to give it a go. We'll need a decent # of cars to keep the costs down, how many we can get, or have, in total I don't know? We'll invite the LS1 guys, WRX, & a few others... To make sure we get a good turnout & a fun day. I know there's a lot of info we still need to find out (dates, times, numbers, costs & so on..) but a show of hands is a start @ least! One small point to remember! - As there is currently no street meets @ AIR (until @ least December!) the only other way to get a crack @ a genuine timeslip, is interstate! Well, AFAIK? Bug's has offered to cook some scones & make tea for anyone @ whatever event we decide to have, jolly good show I say, mighty sporting of you ol' chap! :shake: : 1. - whatsisname I'm in! 2. - NitRaTe 3. - Drift Spec 4. - RevsPerMin 5. - Clint32 - maybe 6. - Munro 7. - Bugalugs 8. - MattR 9. - Nightcrawler 10. - Sil8ty 11. - (_W.4.S.P._)

A dyno day, & a track day would be great (i.e. 2 separate events The dyno day should be easy to organise, either through Tim @ RPM, or Mark @ Tilbrooks. A track day would be a blast! John, you sound like the man to tee it up mate :uh-huh: -

G'day Lachlan, It didn't look like you were too "afraid of the slip way" last night mate :lol: Japlish, funny stuff :lol: "They present comfortable & unknown car life with ARC magic power" I guess that means all ARC performance parts are magical!!! LS1/Skyline/WRX cruise, hmmm, that'd be interesting! Thanks for the invite to play with the Microtech too! Have you got a copy of the software from Tim yet? -

Matt, welcome to the forum mate:) It's gunna' get confusing with all these Matts :confused: Yeah it's a bummer we lost a few along the way; handhelds or mobile #'s will help in the future. A handout with the route might be the go next time. It was good to finally get some DRY road & traction hey mate! At least the 2 of us made the most of it on the way home :lol: Typical damn weather, tonight is dry as We've got to organise another combined cruise soon! Some how I'll make it?! -

Excellent turnout under the circumstances! Sorry for the lack of organization everyone I wasn't too sure what everyone was keen on doing with the rain pissing down?!?! Hopefully you all enjoyed the mix of beasts! Good to see we had no major dramas, + Andrew & Rob etc... got let off by the cops. I'm very keen to get another joint/mixed cruise going again soon. The best bet is to wait for a dry night, i.e. set a date & if it's raining that night move it to the following wk. BRUTE has suggested some UHF radios, it'd be a good idea, so we can try & prevent losing people! I like the idea of an arvo cruise! Just look @ the weather today! And finally, Bug's & myself might be out of the cruise scene for a while, unfortunately We're both due to become first time dads in a week or so!!! Nissan actually offered an optional baby seat for the R33! 26,000yen. No I will not be fitting one -

Brad - Nice looking car! Very quick too! We've tried to choose a route that caters to everyone (around town, F'way & hills) so it should be good. Pissed off about the rain but we should still get a good turn out. See you all there -
Expensive as hell, but very nice.

Xrsist / Lachlan (Freebaggin) In an earlier HPI (last issue maybe?) they did a little feature on the LT12, the engine bay shot in that feature was mine, & the RPM designed inlet photo was Freebaggin's. In the lastest HPI (No24) full LT12 write-up the black car is Freebaggin's, with a small background shot of mine I just noticed Lachlan, Tim even colour matched our LT12's to our cars! :lol: Black ECU for your black car & a blue ECU to match my blue engine detailing

Here's the Tomei engine choices (In some twisted form of semi English): http://world.altavista.com/urltrurl?lp=ja_...comp_frame.html There's a choice of DERIVE or GENESIS engines.

Thanks for that Buster, but unless I'm doing something wrong it still doesn't mean much to me (except for the stuff already in English). I'd still like one though

whatsisname replied to whatsisname's topic in Events
Yep mate/s I've posted the same info on both forums I'm dead keen on the f/way stuff! Nothin' like a good stretch of the legs -
Munro, Sounds like I missed a good night Damn! We've changed the meeting point to the Bunnings cark park @ Mild End (the details are in the 30th cruise thread) Bug's mentioned that the Kmart car park has security that don't like car cruise meets! Hence not going with that option. It must be tough mate, having to choose btw the VU SS or 34 V spec Seeing as how the LS1 will be well represented you must bring the 34 See ya' Friday, Matt

BRUTE, We've got a few good routes we normally use, I'll get Bugalugs (another Matt!) to select a good mix of straight & twisty stuff for all to enjoy. Feel free to add any roads the LS1 guys prefer. I'm pretty sure BBB is keen to go! He was when I spoke to him yesterday. I think his new D&T exhaust (if he gets it in time?) will prompt him along It won't be long till the SA "Aussie LS1 Forum" numbers grow, it's an excellent site! Andy, Bug's was telling me you'd had the bar done, good stuff mate! Yeah that's the spirt, we'll see you a "tiny" bit later on in the night then :uh-huh: Nightcrawler (sorry mate I've forgotten your first name ) Nothin' 'odd' about an S15! Except when one of the damn things kick your arse over the 1/4 @ AIR! Import S15 - 12.8 @ 110 vs me (my time in my sig') It's lookin' good for Friday -

GFXman, The Adelaide LS1 lads aren't a big group so it'll still be a low key affair, but hopefully we get a good turn out of both Skylines & VT/VX LS1 powered beasts! (& maybe the odd S15) :uh-huh: -

Matt, While you're @ it you should make an MP3 of a vent to atmo' BOV sound, then you just hit "play" on the stereo every time you change gears :lol: On a more serious note, it's a bummer you can't get the pipes done (& fitted) by Friday -

Matt, So when is the FMIC going to be in & operational? It better be done by Friday!!! All, BRUTE has posted a similar thread on the Aussie LS1 Forum. With a good turn out (from both groups) it should be a great night! -

Bugs, You idiot :lol: BRUTE, Welcome mate! Only too happy to invite you lads (or us join you). Yeah the Mitre 10 we always meet @ is the bay one, it's got a small cark park + a fair few parking spaces along the road. Yep Jaffa has been on most of the cruises I've been to, including a long hills session we had recently! The bosses net handle is BBB, he drives a Silver VX Berlina, or is it Calais? It's got a HBD kit, looks really good! Soon to get a DT exhaust system fitted too! I'll See ya' on Friday, Matt -
EDIT - 30th AUG CRUISE CHANGE OF MEETING POINT! Due to the expected numbers (~20, give or take) it’ll be better if we change the meeting place to the Bunnings car park in Mile End (near Autobarn). This’ll give us a heap more room, & it’s not too far from the previous meeting points. The Bunnings cark park is located @ 108 Railway Tce, Mile End. It’s just over the Hilton Bridge. If coming from West Tce, head down Sir Donald Bradman Drive (use to be called Burbridge Rd) & you can’t miss it on the left : ) Sorry for the change fellas : ( But this way we’ll have heaps of room & still be left to ourselves (hopefully). Cheers, see ya’ Friday @ ~8.00-8.30pm! Matt I've already posted this in the "Aaron has car fixed cruise 30/08" thread, but just in case you guys missed it, here it is again..... Thought I'd put out an invite to some friends: The Aussie LS1(Commodore) Forum lads. They have a cruise organised for the 30th too! (They meet on West Tce @ Shell) So why not join together? They're a great bunch of blokes, one of my bosses is amongst them There are a few of these boys with some big power! (265rwkw GTS) so it'll be a good night hopefully. Oh yeah, "JAFFA" has cruised with these guys before too! John (Munro), if you're reading this, how about bringing the R33 out for a play? Please!!!!!!!!!!!!! Failing that the 34 will do fine mate.
