I think a sunday cruise to somewhere in the country could be a goer soon.. followed by a bbq lunch in a park or something.

Was thinking a cruise to Warwick ? 2 hour drive I think from goldcoast area, not bad area.. then back.. Some nice roads to there.

My vote is kind of for "all the above".

A purely skyline track day I'd be keen on, but a lot of people are a bit scared to get their car out there on the track it seems (hey if its going to break its going to break eventually :P). I think this was attempted before by Paul, but not too much interest to make it worthwhile ;)

Other -

I wouldn't mind attending all the above events, but the major factor determining me actually going is funds and what else I am doing.

:P

So what "Other" events do you want to attend?

public floggings?

or

private floggings?

social events -non car related.

Not all of us are into going into the valley and getting sh!tfaced but I don't think many of us would say no to a pint or so on a nice sunday afternoon somewhere. Or a good dinner somewhere central (I know there's regular chilli nights in loganholme)

paintball, laserforce, bowling, ice skating,

Or we could try to raise money with a Car Wash (who's got a bikini :lol: )

Oh and don't be scared of track days people.

we need another dyno day.

The last dyno day which was run by the club was also a very successfull Membership drive, but dont you think it is still a bit hot to run these durning the day? I know we could just find one to have at night, maybe a sausage sizzel for dinner and then do the runs once it gets cooler, like at 3am :(

I agree with slamm, there are heaps of things we could do, I like the idea of a bowling night....?

dyno day!!

it would all be relative so if all the same cars go on in the same time.. on same conditions it wouldn't matter. Dyno if its in shootout mode will have temp correction on anyhow.

great way to check if your tune is "safe" during the summer month

Only been on one organised cruise (not on this web site) to the sunshine coast since i got my car and have to say it was a complete dive. A solid "Group Drive" on some interesting road through the abbundance of dantree avalible to us ending up at some where like natural arch where you can swim and BBQ like Gordon suggested would be awsome. It would seem skyliners are a different breed and enjoy utilising all aspects of their car and not just dumping it, fitting it with the biggest set of rims that will fit the gaurds, driving on the boring free way for an hour to drive up and down the same strip all day. I love a good looking car but i got my car to drive it! which brings me to my choice: skid pan and test and tune events offer plenty of time to socailise as well as good clean fun in the drivers seat

Sorry, bit of a rant :P

    • Back in January, I noticed my car felt noticeably weak. I had the injectors cleaned, which seemed to solve the problem -- until now. Recently, the car suddenly lost power again while driving. Suspecting the injectors, I brought it to the mechanic. He recommended replacing them entirely, saying the current ones were getting unreliable and fiddly to work with. I could not find a direct replacement for my current injectors. The closest match I found were 440cc injectors. This led me to look into the possibility of upgrading -- and of course, that would mean remapping the ECU. From my research I found: The OEM Part numbers are 16600-72L20 and 16600-72L21 Both the RB20DE and RB20DET use the same 270cc injectors. There are much better options out there over the old OEM injectors. Nistune could be a viable tuning option. While the RB20DE isn’t explicitly listed on their site, the ECU is essentially the same as the GTS-T version - just with a different map. The ECU code on mine is listed as supported. One concern is finding a tuner who works with Nistune. Aftermarket ECU like Haltech and Link, but this would be the most expensive choice (and possibly overkill for a mostly stock RB20DE) I admit that I am very new to the tuning scene and would appreciate any insight or recommendations regarding this.   These are some SAU links where I got some of my information from for reference: https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/380324-rb20de-injectors/ https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/477396-factory-270cc-injectors/  
    • The inspectors are not forensic by any means but if you forge your documents and/or badgings on vehicle parts and are found out, the consequences are just far bigger than if you just run illegal parts. And their job quite literally is to cross reference what parts you got installed and what your papers say you got. Something as silly as your suspension being 1mm too low will fail you. Nonetheless I asked if someone knew the damn pipe and I certainly did not ask for smartassery or underhanded comments, no idea why you need to be told this. Great way to waste both our time.
    • As useful as you explaining what forgery is... But then again, I wasn't aware your inspectors were also forensic experts and inspect nameplates on each component to confirm everything is original. They must inspect roughly 3 cars a year at that rate. You're right though, my comment doesn't help you in anyway, so I'll go talk to my wall now. Cheers. 
    • Say that to the guy that is going to fail your inspection or tow your car for illegal exhaust modifications. If you have anything else useful to say, please go tell your wall.
    • You must be fun at parties.
