Another prelude bites the dust

lol i didn't realise he was giving me a run till a lil later. I was just speeding in my own lil world!

I so need to sneak an external wastegate and a slideh performance turbo on the grandpa mobile without my old man realising.

"It goes faster? Oh, i really havnt noticed anything like that dad :laugh: .....

lol

Bugger.. I had a tooth ache last night.. ( had root canal a while ago which never got finished ) took some pain killers then as I got to the airport my arms felt like they wanted to fall off and I felt like sleeping...Big U-turn.. No idea how I made it home.. Lucky I didn't speed across that backroad behind the airport.. cops were speed trapping like 80 or so yards before it changes from 60 to 70.

Was there a big turn-out?

yes it was a pretty good turn out. but not as good as the northern beachs one a while ago :)

i had a pretty good time. well as much as can be expected lol. but the 6pack is to thank for that :rofl: since i was passenger heheheh

saw an S13 rock up and thought it was you.... but noooooo his sauce was stronger than yours. You are of the weaksauce kind Liz. :happy:

:ermm: well... ok.... yeah i got nothing. lol

damn taxi drivers picking on the little cars!!!

Not the best cruise I have been on, but that is understandable.

Still a good bit of road out there. It was the first time had had driven on it.

We will have to do it again some time and I may actually be able to meet some of you under better circumstances.

was an eventful night wasnt it.. would of been better if we left in the other direction from the start. Took me 5goes to get through those fking lights and prob should of used the waterfall entrance as theres less chance of "it" happening. Its not as open as the sutherland entrance.. but had alright time.. met some people, didnt meet some people all in all was ok

It was a great to meet some of you and under the cicumstances to be expected didnt get to chat to everyone I am glad everyone was very supportive and helpful and hope it will be a better cruise next time.... :P

Well done to some of the boys as had alot of courage in doing the right thing and helping out ! :)

;)

    • Which manifold mate? Meanwhile......Mark is wondering how bonnet vents would look on the NC 🤣
    • Actually,  just remembered there should be info in the threads (somewhere) about swapping to a manual steering rack and deleting power steering all together. 
    • Also had a look at the Nissan JP website looks like the 400r has a slightly shorter ratio than than the regular V37 3.133 VS 2.937 which from a guy who has driven both 3.69 vs 4.11 ratios in the S15 is bugger all. Seems that the AUTO Z runs the same ratio as the 400R but can't find any info as to if its an open or LSD? More often than not the auto LSD is open
    • Do not replace the power steering lines with this stuff. If it's anything like the Chase Bays stuff it will leak and be worse than stock. The reason why the reservoir is on the LH/passenger side of the car is because that's just where the reservoir was most convenient to fit. Don't overthink this stuff. The intake/cold side of the engine is pretty busy on these cars. And again, the hardpipe is designed to be a janky power steering cooler. In theory you can replace it with a real power steering cooler but that's really only for track use where boiling the fluid is a distinct possibility. Start with the low pressure lines feeding the pump from the reservoir. Make sure there isn't a bunch of junk in the reservoir filter. Be careful to not get ATF all over the engine bay. I hate dealing with ATF spills, you can clean it up and the slightest crevice will still release more oil that can still drip over time. You also want to inspect for leaks before you make a mess and can't tell what happened. Most likely you have a leak somewhere that is allowing fluid out and air in. Failing that it's allowing air in but not fluid out. Only place I can really see that happening is on the low pressure side because the pump will pull a slight vacuum to draw fluid in. Everything after the pump is high pressure or lower pressure, approaching atmospheric by the time it returns to the reservoir.
    • I did a skidpan night at SMSP this week, it was much cheaper than $350. But yeah, you need to slap an LSD in that thing.  I put an OS Giken in the 370Z and it's f**king MARVELOUS even compared to Nissan's viscous LSD. So you're saying it's free now that it's a housing estate? 😂
