[30/12/06] ! Last Cruise Of 2006 ! [30/12/06]


Recommended Posts

Saturday 30th December 2006 - Last Cruise of 2006! Let's make it massive!

We Have Changes! Please Read Carefully!

We will no longer be meeting at BP Yatala I do apologize to the people who were going to meet us there but reason why we aren’t going to meet there is we’re going to have at least 50 cars and there will just be no room for all of us to park and we’ll end up getting broken up.

Please make sure you fill up before you come on the cruise as we won't be stopping at BP anymore.

Now, we will be going to “Showcase on the Beach” which is in Coolangatta after Broadwater Car Park, as a lot of people don’t want to finish the cruise or hang around Broadwater for a long time.

Please read the meeting spots carefully and be there on time as I know you don’t want to miss out on the last cruise of 2006!

I will be in a 93' R33 GTS25T, Gunmetal Grey, Nismo sticker on the rear window with white and black interior, so keep a eye out for me and come and say hello!

First Meeting Spot:

Aspley Pick N Pay Carpark

Corner of Gayford Street and Albany Creek Rd

Arrive: 7:00PM

Depart: 7:30PM Sharp

I will not be at the first meet (will be at the second), so you can follow Brett in a white 99 Hilux V8 if you are meeting at Aspley Pick N Pay Carpark.

Second Meeting Spot:

Springwood Crazy Clarks

Rochedale Road

Arrive: 8:15PM

Depart: 8:40PM Sharp

Third Meeting Spot:

Broadwater Car Park

Gold Coast Highway

Arrive: 9:45PM

Depart: 10:20PM Sharp

Fourth Meeting Spot:

Coolangatta (Showcase on the Beach)

Marine Parade

Arrive: 11:00PM

Depart: Whenever You Like

Things You May Want To Bring Along:

1. Full tank of fuel

2. Camera

People Attending:

1. GTS793

2. gts25t4door

3. mrgilly

4. yoparata

There is 60+ people coming from CruisingBrisbane and Boostcruising so far!

If I have missed you, please let me know :thumbsup:

I want to make one thing very clear to everyone - follow the law, the last thing I want to see is our Queensland Road Toll go up even more then it has or see someone hurt or injured. We will no doubt see police Saturday night somewhere or even follow us so please do behave or you will be asked to leave.

NO Racing/Speeding

NO Burnouts

NO Skids

NO Drifting

Any problems on the night you can contact me on 0433 63 95 97.

I am on call but I think I can make it if I dont get called out.

Put me down as comming but I will let you know if I cant make it.

Cheers

Chris

Awesome :( We've now almost got 70 people for the last cruise of 2006! There should be a few Skylines there also!

Everyone is more then welcome to attend.

I know who they are...

I dont ever want to go on another CB cruise again. Last one I went on had too much alcohol, stupidity, burnouts / street drift, police and the like...

Like it says in the first post, if anyone brakes the law they will be asked to leave. I have made that clear.

Remember this is tomorrow night guys! Be looking forward to meeting a lot of you from here!

Remember everyone is welcome and all I ask is people to follow the law like I stated in the first post, nothing stupid such as skids/burnouts/racing/speeding/drifting.

Please make sure you read the first post as there were some changes a few days ago!

So, sill plenty of time to put your names down so who else is in? Should be a awesome night!

:P:mad::O

I may be tempted to pop my cruising cherry... at least at night you won't notice how filthy my car is :s

Cool :( Hope so see you out!

Should be a good night! Can't wait!

I'm just going to say this to everyone who hasn't read the first post properly, is please do as there were changes.

Also if you don't follow these 4 simple things you will be asked to leave and if need to be your number plate will be taken and reported to the police.

Don't try and be a hero you'll just look like a dickhead more then anything.

NO Racing/Speeding

NO Burnouts

NO Skids

NO Drifting

I'm not trying to be a asshole I just don't want to see anyone injured or dead on a cruise I've organized I'll feel really bad. just think of your loved ones and count to 3. :)

Other then that, should be a really good night, looks like quite a few people are attending (almost 100 from CB and BC) - so lets get into it!

    • Ah right. Maybe my rb just loves chewing through batteries lol.
    • On the R34 can't you just unplug the IACV? This is the way I've always done it on the R33. Disconnect IACV, get it idling around 650rpm, and then do a power reset on the ECU to get it to relearn idle (factory ECU).   The big reason no one has touched on as to why you'd want to get the base idle right, is that it means the computer needs to make smaller adjustments to get a good idle at 700-750rpm.   Also, cleaning the IACV won't normally make the car suddenly idle lower or higher. The main issue with the IACV gumming up is that the valve sticks. This means the inputs the ECU gives, aren't translating to changes in air flow. This can cause idle choppy ness as the ECU is now needing to give a lot of input to get movement, but then it moves too far, and then has to do the same in reverse, and it can mean the ECU can't catch stalls quickly either.
    • 12.8 for a great condition, fully charged battery. If the battery will only ever properly charge to about 12.2V, the battery is well worn, and will be dead soon. When I say properly charge, I mean disconnect it from the car, charge it to its max, and then put your multimeter on it, and see what it reads about an hour later. Dieing batteries will hold a higher "surface charge", but the minutest load, even from just a multimeter (which in the scheme of things is considered totally irrelevant, especially at this level) will be enough over an hour to make the surface charge disappear.   I spend wayyy too much time analysing battery voltages for customers when they whinge that our equipment (telematics device) is causing their battery to drain all the time. Nearly every case I can call it within about 2 months of when the battery will be completely dead. Our bigger customers don't even debate it with me any more ha ha ha. A battery at 12.4 to 12.6 I'd still be happy enough with. However, there's a lot of things that can cause a parasitic draw in a car, first of which is alarms and immobilisers. To start checking, put your multimeter into amps, (and then connect it properly) and measure your power draw with everything off. Typical car battery is about 40aH. Realistically, you'll get about half this before the car won't start. So a 100mA power drain will see you pretty much near unstartable in 8 days.
    • Car should sit at 12.2 or more, maybe 12.6 or 12.7 when fully charged and happy. If there is a decent enough parasitic load then it will certainly go lower than 12.2 with time. You can't beat physics.
    • Ok guess I can rule out the battery, probably even the starter and alternator (maybe) as well. I'm gonna clean those leads and see what happens if it's still shit I might take it to an auto electrician. Unless the immobiliser is that f**king heavy, but it shouldn't be.  If I start the car every day, starts up perfectly never an issue. Isn't 12v low, shouldn't it be around 12.5v?
