SATURDAY NIGHT CRUISE

29/07/2006

Ok,

Proposed is a Mountain Cruise (Old School Style)

Starting on Southport Nerang Road from the BP service station and cul de sac carparking area on Centeral Park Avenue. (Maps Below)

Following it all the way out to the Natural Arch and back down to the Springbrook turnoff out to mudgerabah then back to Ashmore Tavern Carpark following the leader.

Meet at 8:30pm BP on Southport Nerang Road

Depart at 9:000pm

This will give people time to fill up (for those that use caltex you can convert and be normal........or use the one up the road.) You will need approximately a half a tank of fuel so fill up regardless.

Then we will strike forth to the natural arch.

This will be used as a turn around bay.

Drive back to the Springbrook exit go down towards Mudgerabah. (Great drive)

Then Back to the A

mpol/ local Tavern on Beaudesert Nerang Road/ Price Street/ Southport Nerang Road. (This is the same road, from the BP it is Southport Nerang Road then towards the highway turns to Price Street then towards the mountain turns to Beaudesert Nerang Road.)

CB's are recomended as you may get lost or require the assistance of David Hasselhoff.

Channel will be given on the night.

Northbound and Southbound take Exit 69

The trip is worth it.

Who is up for it?

ALL members are welcome

For those that will be attending this from Brisbane can someone please put the old hand up and arange a meeting place up there somewhere.

Those that are not at the meeting place on time will sadly miss out.

I feel that a 30 minute window is big enough.

If you have a skyline or even a moped i dont care if your on the site be there or be squizaire

For more detailed directions use Whereis.com or a simple refedex to find the meet place.

If you get lost call me on 0405987261

Cautions:

These roads are out in the bush/forrest, please keep a distance between you and the car infront to compensate for posible braking due to wildlife.

If you can tell the person behind wants to overtake you indicate to the left to notify them they can safetly do so.

As my car is receiving a rather large rectal thermometer (RB3026) i will be attending in a white series 2 skyline and will respond to name calling.

Those who are more circular and not square who will be attending.

Heh I would never have seen this if it wasn't linked to from another topic in the Qld section.

Anyway, bitching aside, the meetup point is seriously like 5 minutes from my house, CRAZY! I think I'll be in, have never been on a "night cruise"...

I'm not about to thrash it up any mountains though, I hope we will be driving at a SENSIBLE speed?

    • These are small points I should actually add to my original post. GKtech makes an extended slave line for this conversion. It's what I use, and it works well. You'll also need a CD009 slave cylinder.  S/R Chassis Z33/Z34 Conversion braided clutch line As for transmission sensors, you'll need to both extend the wiring and replace the connectors. I can't recall which is which, but one is your neutral switch and the other the reverse switch. As they are just switches, just test for continuity with your transmission in neutral or reverse to figure out which is which. Connectors:  VQ35 neutral Switch Connector | Wiring Specialties VQ35 Reverse Switch Connector | Wiring Specialties 
    • I’ll try and see it could be the release bearing. As for the 4th gear grind maybe clutch doesn’t disengage properly cause it is slightly like very slightly hard to go into first could be due to the slab cylinder pin being short uni clutch is a twin plate.   Ive attached some assembly photos hopefully you can open the link and see maybe detect what’s wrong https://share.icloud.com/photos/0dc2YvW__Hl6jl-l2_0jejjpg https://share.icloud.com/photos/09e0jkWOK-vP48c1cfY6u3ViA https://share.icloud.com/photos/0b4rDmh5R7pK7fb1VtND73a3g https://share.icloud.com/photos/05eeUi_6dC4DVi80jOUYDgb0g https://share.icloud.com/photos/06335TgY1XxyIJal_wkdQLhzw
    • Yeah for sure that is peddle adjustment 
    • What are your thoughts on this after having it for a while, worth getting?
    • Downshifts are harder on transmissions than upshifts, the input shaft naturally slows down once disconnected from the engine so the synchros aren't doing all the work. There's no "natural" tendency for an input shaft to increase RPM. Something is not right there, I don't have a great answer on what. You can try a dedicated GL4 75W90, I plan to switch to Motorcraft XT-M5-QS which is supposedly a very good 75W90 for NB Miatas which have a weirdly sensitive transmission from the factory. I would chase down why your clutch is making a hissing noise, that's not normal. It might be no big deal but in the absence of anything else to investigate I would look at that.
