I am just a newbie here.. but ..

we ( perth pulsar ) did a "3d cruise " which was basically driving around the hills and visiting the dams.

was a really nice day.. lovely scenery up there and some windy bits too.

though I dont know how well a 4.8m Station wagon would go around the " zig Zags "

but I could arrange to get you a copy of the map if you wanted?

Bear in mind the 13th is mothersday.,, so people might have previous engagements.

Oh and despite us not HAVING a stagea ( yet) we would love to come along and maybe just chat at one of the meet ponts ?

and maybe just catch up with the perth stagea scene :P

or we found a nice picnic spot up at the Churchman brooke dam . .

arrr crap...forgot about mothers day(it doesnt get celebrated in my house) :rofl: so its either the week prior being the 6th of May or the 20th :)

our last cruise was up the hills, the weir and to the chocolate factory stopping at whitemans for lunch but definately if you can grab me a copy of the cruise you mentioned that would be sweeet (of course i will not copy) :)

Ska although i love you heaps...rockhampton might be a tad out of our way :P If your lonely i could get my brother to drop in :( *actually i wont* :)

Kristie I got 2 maps for you.. how shall I get them to you ( would rather not attach it to a post here )

can I just email it to you .. or are you on msn messenger?

oh and the 3 dams cruise might be a bit long .. but it covers the Canning / Mundairing and Serpentine dams :P

but I would imagine the stageas are good for long haul driving?

Edited by ssshonky

yeah if you could send it to either one of these email addresses - this is my msn and my email addie - [email protected] or send it to this one [email protected]

thanks champ :P

i was actually thinking of suggesting the serpertine dam :(

is churchman brooke dam in roleystone..i cant even remember????

is churchman brooke dam in roleystone..i cant even remember????

Yes it is - the road out there is an absolute ripper too, and its just around the corner from Lady McNess drive - one of the special stages for Targa West! (They had a yellow series 2 as a course car)

opps typo...i have changed in now...it should have read mrsgtst :P

dont worry about mister grumpy pants its the old age setting in :(

no trouble caused...seens that email address are already posted on here for the backup :rofl:

:) if you were 'hunglikeadonkey' then what the hell are you doing in here :) :)

just got the email from sean thanks champ they look the goods :)

Hey, us Dirk Digglers of the new millenium have to earn a living too!

*edit* I vote for the 20th too. Anything that involves the hills and / or coast would be great

arrr crap...forgot about mothers day(it doesnt get celebrated in my house) :) so its either the week prior being the 6th of May or the 20th :)

Hey Dude, my bet is Mothers Day will be an occaision in your house this year. Specially if ya tell the kids they'll get icecream and jelly! They'll be onto their dad like the proverbial.

Enjoy. :)

i highly doubt my stagea will be sorted by then, but ill come along in the gto as usual :wave:

might be abit more reliable than the damn stagea :blink:

any date is good by me :(

Hey Kirstie we betta get Lee on this cruise as i havent seen or spoke to him on/offline for months now

    • to fix the voltage drop issue I swapped out the old 150amp alternator which turns out is a brand known for having issues and replaced it with the black 180amp alternator beside it 
    • For anyone interested, the Way Back Machine has that Japanese website archived with pictures, etc: https://web.archive.org/web/20051023225805fw_/http://www.a31cefiro.com/air_con.htm "Simply swapping the wiring of the harness will not allow it to function properly. For the outdoor air sensor and sunlight sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN1-11 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. For the indoor air sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN2-3 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. The connector PIN numbers listed here are the genuine A31 PIN numbers. To avoid incorrect wiring, check with a tester before wiring. Also, disconnect the wiring in a location close to the sensor. The disconnected harness side wiring will not be used, so be sure to insulate it." Wish someone sold a conversion harness to just plug-and-play a Kouki 180sx digital climate control into C33/A31. I'm decent with wiring but feeling kinda lazy about taking this on. Edit: Did some more digging and found a helpful Minkara blog post about the conversion as well: https://minkara.carview.co.jp/userid/1831116/car/1360568/2284209/note.aspx "After installation is complete or the battery is replaced, you need to go into self-diagnosis mode and set the internal air recirculation. The way to do it is to "hold OFF with the key on for more than 5 seconds, set the number to 5, then press 卍→C." ↑↑↑It probably won't make sense unless you actually try it (・∀・)." Lol wtf
    • Maybe SAUNSW could see howany members would do a motorkhana day if Schofield's is still available for a reasonable price...
    • Skip the concrete, we just need to smooth a field. Mark knows how to drive a grader Duncan   I reckon 100x100 flat area for skid pan style, and then some sort tracks for rally... Duncan's already got a rally car on the premises to...
    • Well, yeah, the RB26 is definitely that far off the mark. From a pure technology point of view it is closer to the engines of the 60s than it is to the engines of the last 10 years. There is absolutely nothing special about an RB26 that wasn't present in engines going all the way back to the 60s, except probably the four valve head. The bottom end is just bog standard Japanese stuff. The head is nothing special. Celicas in the 70s were the same thing, in 4cyl 2 valve form. The ITBs are nothing special when you consider that the same Celicas had twin Solexes on them, and so had throttle plates in the exact same place. There's no variable valve timing, no variable inlet manifold, which even other RBs had either before the 26 came out or shortly afterward. The ECU is pretty rude and crude. The only things it has going for it are that the physical structure was pretty bloody tough for a mass produced engine, the twin-turbos and ITBs made for a bit of uniqueness against the competition (and even Toyota were ahead on the twin turbs thing, weren't they?) and the electronic controls and measuring devices (ie, AFMs, CAS, etc) were good enough to make it run well. Oh, and it sounds better than almost anything else, ever. The VR38 is absolutely halfway between the RB generation and the current generation, so it definitely has a massive increase in the sophistication of the electronics, allowing for a lot more dynamic optimisation of mapping. Then there's things like metal treatments and other coatings on things, adoption of variable cam stuff, and a bunch of other little improvements that mean it has to be a better thing than the RB26. But I otherwise agree with you that it is approximately the same thing as a 26. But, skip forward another 10 years from that engine and then the things that I mentioned in previous post come out to play. High compression, massively sophisticated computers, direct injection, clever measuring sensors, etc etc. They are the real difference between trying to make big power with a 26 and trying to make big power with a S/B50/54 (or whatever the preferred BMW engine of the week is).
