It was good to see a great turnout. I missed attending events like this in the old days. Every second month there was always something good going on, no matter how meaningful the end result was going to be.

Great effort!

Thanks goes out to all the people who organised the event as these guys ALWAYS go unnoticed and less appreciated than they deserve.

Silent thanks to the Lighthouse Restaurant for cooking the snags and then again for changing my hundgie.....Chris almost convinced me it was a $10 buffet all you can eat sausage sizzle but Mel's confusion gave it away.

Hey dudes

What an awesome event! I really enjoyed meeting everyone. Thank you to all the organisers, good job! Thanks to the guys who posted up pics. ( forgot my camera, DOH! ). Great drive after, loved chasing the blue Nismo R34 GTR. Pity we got seperated, still a good run though.

More please!

Big THANKS to those who made it to the event, was a great day!

We had about 40 – 45 Skylines with approx 60 people. A great turnout and some increasable machines!!!

Was great to meet a lot of the new guys. Unfortunately, I was too busy talking and didn't get to see under the bonnets of those 34 GTRs – maybe next time (please!!!!).

Even though we took 5 different routes on the cruise, a good number of people made it to the Broadway for lunch (and found a park).

A special thanks to those that navigated their way from WELLINGTON POINT to CLEVELAND POINT – you know who you are ;)

The Events Team will post up details of what's planned for the next few months.

Thanks again guys,

PEAR

yes, thanks to the Chef at the Point Cafe - she saved my bacon. :laugh:

Some impressive photos there Zennon, nicely done.

I think I need to reiterate what a great job was done by the events team. Also a special thanks to Paul (Mountainrunner) for the Time Attack Tees that were donated and to everyone who behaved themselves on the cruise. A couple of people seemed to want to unleash their power and impress us all but on the whole everyone was restrained. I also hope that everyone avoided photos and making special donations with the folks in blue parked along the way with their Greed Camera.

Also a reminder that this week I intend to have CAMS affiliation documentation submitted which will mean full public liability insurance for the club and CAMS licenses available for those that want them. We will also start the ball rolling for the occasional non-speed event to add some extra activity and entertainment and to complement Pauls Time Attack track days under CAMS provisions and guidelines.

A great day, Cheers.

Oh, before i forget... did any1 else hear the knob in the red/black mazda 121 bubble yell out "piece of sht" as he went the opposite way past us? i sure as hell did, what an ass... cant remember what rd it was on, but it was fairly early on in the cruise

Hey Geoff, where we're the boys in blue? don't remember seeing them?

    • As you're looking at using a Link ECU, then large injectors are not a problem. But there's not really any need to go 1000s on an RB20 unless you're planning >>600HP on E85, which would seem unlikely. There are other options for injectors. The Xspurt ones are available from a number of places and you can get them in the mid 600s and 725cc, which is probably a sensible place to be. These are all EV14 based. If you are not using the stock AFM (at all, which would be the case with a Link) then a large turbo intake pipe to suit the ATR turbos is not an obstacle, so you should use one instead of a highflow. Results will be better.
    • Hey guys,  I'm after some advice and this here is the best place to get it imo. I was a member a looong time ago under another account, with a lost email address. Its nice to jump back on and see some of the same names still giving good advice.  I mothballed my car when i moved to perth in 2013, and after getting towed across the nullabor a few times it has officially done more km's on a trailer than under its own power. Now that i have started the process of tidying up and modifying it, i see the fruit available (and the fruiterers selling the produce) is different than back in the day. hence my questions, as i used to 'know' what to get and now, i'm not so sure. Engine wise the car (92 gtst) has a walbro 255, k+n, fmic, cam gears and and turbo back 3"exhaust. Wish list is a Hypergear high flow or ATR43G1, Link G4x and some newer injectors before a tune up. My goals are modest, only low 200's power wise. i know i could achieve this with less, but i've been swapping out old for new where i can. Every cooling hose has been replaced, along with mani gaskets, WP, thermostat and radiator, fuel pump and timing belt, tensioner and idler, and i rebuilt the steering rack. Regarding the injectors, the fruiterers all seem to sell what used to be considered quite large injectors. There are a lot of options for bosch 1000cc EV14's, and i would like to know if that is a suitable choice for my build. Is modern injector design good enough to run these at the low duty cycles that i likely would be? is there a downside to running a too large injector these days? or, would there be an upside to running a smaller injector at higher duty cycle? I can see that there are smaller injectors still available, but the ones i have seen specifically marketed for RB's are pretty large (see: https://golebysparts.au/collections/fuel-rail-injector-kits/products/nissan-rb20-fuel-rail-bosch-980cc-1150cc-injectors-turbosmart-fpr800-regulator-kit), and i dont know enough about them to say one not marketed for RB's would fit or not. I have searched the forums, and amongst all the posts on older tech, I did see gtsboy recommend EV14's, but no size was mentioned... again, i'm not clear on if the smaller size bosch injectors are also EV14's as they do look similar.  also, if someone can recommend a tuner familiar with RB's in the Geelong or West Melbourne area i'd appreciate it. Thanks in advance guys. Cheers, Rowdy  
    • FWIW the depth of the groove in the rubber pad is not super essential, the blocks are rubber and squish a bit. If you are worried an angle grinder will make a deeper groove quick smart
    • I mean, if you were to move the jacking points away from the original location, that is, away from the wheels and closer to the centreline of the car, then it will be more likely to overbalance and tip off the supports. Same as we talked about before. I was talking about moving for-aft. If the sill is bent outward or inward, then the car would obviously look unstraight from the outside. Hopefully that hasn't happened either. Again, you can do comparative measurements from the chassis rails to see if there is much deflection.
    • Can you elaborate what you mean with your first sentence? I meant move as in the bulge kinda seemed like it got pulled "outward" meaning it got pulled down and to the side with the jacking rail itself, so the load bearing bulge now sits lower than usual and is not level with the sill on the other side of the jack point. Either that or the jacking rail just got pushed in a good bit.
