Have had an idea for lunch stop let me know what yas reckon.

I am currently cookin @ whalers in encounter bay.

Not givin the joint a plug or anything but there is an awesome deck area that looks out over encounter bay and an adequitly sized car park that would look rather spesh chockas w stags!!

And we do a reasonably priced big rotisserie spread(among other things) on a sunday!!

I must say I personally would prefer the food @ the flying fish( my missus used to work there and is real nice) but is definately a little pricier$$. Carparks and view are very comparable so either would be great spots.

Just thought id throw in the idea!

My 2 cents!

Sounds like a valid offer. I'll see how that would slip into our route. So long as we get to 'parade' past the local spots in Victor, where we eat/drink shouldn't matter too much.

:)

im not fussed where we eat.

but can i get a rough idea what route u have came up with ruby.

looks like we got alot of stags cumn :D im hangn for it now, but not hangn to see my fuel bill when i fill up tomoz :)

There will be an opportunity for fuel stops at 3 stages along the route. I've broken the drive up into 3 stages with fuel stops at the end of each stage. Basically, about 50 minute drive from meet point for first stage, about 1 hour drive for stage 2, and the 1.5 hour run home for the final stage 3. It'll be about a 230km round trip.

However, the drive back (stage 3) has 2 options depending on people's mood for the day. I'll give everyone a vote at the meet point on the day.

BTW does anyone have, or can get their hands on, 2 walkie talkies with a decent range? I'd like the lead stag and tail stag to have them so we can manage keeping the group together ... but shouldn't be hard anyway given the route I've chosen. My idea of a cruise is we all drive about 10kph under the speed limit. Give fallen drivers the chance to catch up, and also take our time cruising past places to give spectators a better look at the mighty Stagea. As a bonus, theres also little risk of speeding fines :)

If we arrivin from western front can take ring road around back of township and come at it from top of kleinigs hill, down into victor and do the main street cruise etc, then head back out to encounter bay via esplanade all the way down to whalers. Is many spots to stop for photos etc, kent reserve, bluff jetty road, petrel cove carpark would be awesome also!!

I just bought new walkies w apparant 7km range, was planning on using them anyway, am a big fan of walkies on cruzes, I would encourage anyone who has one to bring with! :unsure:

We need the numbers! I have a silver Stagea that may not have a driver, but it has no insurance.

Gotta see if my mate can come, and I'll take the silver Stag and my mate can drive my black Stag.

See what you can do to get your car back dude :D

Can we decide on lunch venue.

should I make a tentative booking?

Would be nice to let them know if we gonna be there.

Especially if we go to flyin fish, they dont have that many seats so need to organise if we gonna rock up w 20 odd people!

Yeah make the booking for 20 odd people at the Whalers Inn. We should def have the numbers for 20 odd people. We should be getting there about 12.30pm.

:laugh:

whats wrong with pie n sauce on the run?

:P

damn petrol is going to be costly this weekend.................................

But it'll be a great cruise! :D

Trying to keep this as a bit more of a special event, rather than a regular cruise to Villis! :blink:

Nothing is stopping anyone from just grabbing a pie and eating at the cars, rather than eating in at the Whalers Inn. But eating at a table is quite civilised, to show we are not as barbaric as the common Skyline driver :laugh:

I Realise shit is not cheap these days, as rubyrs4 said there is no reason why those who want cant grab a pie from the bakery and hang out front, am sure we will be lappin up the deck out the front if weather is nice, can just chill w a drink or whateva!

Will be able to hook up a few bowls of wedges and some garlic breads for the table :D

Will book tomoz.

droped the stag off to MV automatics early this morning :P hopfuly those dudes can hook me up pretty quick :D they had sum falcons and a 4wd there so they were pretty stoked to c a stag rock up... or 2 (thanx to kidafa droping me home) so they should have me fresh for the wkend all going well... n got sum new tyers orderd 2.. so should b there:) btw ive sent a fair few emails around to other stag drivers letting them no that theres a cruise on so might get a few random stags out :) (havnt big mouthed the location tho )

    • 49719 is the cooler loop. Right at the front, LHS of that diagram. Return line from rack (LP side) goes to cooler loop on RHS front of car, then back under engine and returns to bottom of tank. 49717M is feed from tank to pump. HP line out of pump is thick rubber, followed by the hard line that runs down to crossmember and runs in parallel (but opposite flow direction) to the LP return line. Nothing goes anywhere near the firewall or interior of car. The closest they get to that is the connections on the rack.
    • Thanks, plan is to drain all fluid tomorrow and do smoke test to find out the leak.   Appreciate your help and want to understand how the system work. So cooling is achieved by the long loop not any rad? The diagram seems to suggest it connects to somewhere inside the cabin and I thought that is a cooler inside firewall. If you look at the diagram it seems to show it connects to something inside firewall. I tried chasing it but not easy unless I take loads off   i am confident pump is good as fluid goes in and it gets soft( steering) but as soon as I turn engine off , loads of bubble come to surface and overflow. When engine is on , fluid level is below minimum but when off it shoots off and thinking it is sucking air in. I suspect aluminium pipe may have a crack line or whole   smoke test with no fluid should be a good start and if needed will remove the pump   In addition, the one going under the engine bay is high pressure line and one directly connecting from pump to resorvoir is return/ low pressure?   finally I searched and suggestion is to use dexron 2 but that is discontinued so bought dexron 3 as all research suggest it is compatible and shouldn’t cause any issues/ blow seals. I bought two liter of dexron 3 motul atf
    • Don't worry about. Just don't try to drive hard enough to make boost and you'll be fine.
    • Yes. This has already been said. It is a loop of hardline in front of the radiator. Because.... the pump is on the LHS and the steering rack hydraulic connections are where they always are on a RHD steering rack....on the RHS. The high pressure line goes down under the engine, along the crossmember, like it does on all Skylines. Don't just throw expensive braided hoses/other kits at it. Work out what is wrong and fix that.
    • Still got the afm on the intake, clamps are shut tight, only loose hose is the one that goes from the j pipe towards the IACV, since it's next to impossible to find a factory hose and the barbs are different sizes (I'm still using clamps on this hose to try and help it seal on the iacv side) I've ordered parts to make up the hotside of the intercooler pipes, I'll plumb it in and see what happens in a few days I suppose The turbo's internally gated, can I just unscrew the tension rod to let the gate open?
