hey guys...

after exams i'm sure most you guys (the one's doing exams) would want to ease yourself with possibly a nice, coastal, afternoon cruise with lunch or something..?

now for the peeps not doing exams, possibly come with and meet people you haven't met before or catch up with old buddies...

anyway, the reason i'm posting up this thread is just as an expression of interest;

WHO wants to go

WHERE would people want to go

WHEN would everyone want to go...

please just post up your ideas here, moderators i would like as many people as possible to spot this thread and only move it into the 'EVENTS' area once we have decided on a specific date to hold the event...

oh yeah, would people want to go for a small lunch to catch up on and then go for the cruise, NOR to SOR or vice versa so people can leave if they know where the cruise is going or whatever...

AND if anybody has ran an awesome cruise lately and if they have ideas on a possible map etc...

something to think about for everyone, no restriction to who wants to come but i would like to keep it as an SAU cruise, if you have good friends with performance cars as well they are more than welcome to come... just want to keep the standards of the possible to cruise to a high...

don't really want any sh*tters to represent an SAU spec cruise...

all comments welcome, but i wouldn't appreciate any offensive/sh*tty comments as i'm sure a few people here would agree with me...

please, it's just a suggestion and would love to hear from you all, cheers,

Andrew :)

weak Kelvin... :)

we'll make the practice run before, then we'll do the proper one after... so Kelvin and all the other peeps that need extra time can come no problems

it doesn't have to be so soon after exams, we'll cater for everyone, also gives us time to make a good cruise too

(better than a dinner cruise without a map right?) :)

Andrew, I had work at 5:30 the next morning!! I really wanted to come over and help, but my commonsense kicked in... for once... wtf?

I'm up for a practice run if you want, let me know the dates and I'll book off work so I can come. Hopefully I can convince Tara to come on this one :D

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) clogged cat

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      Appreciate the feedback. It is street car, but not a daily. Last week I got a quote from a good exhaust shop for a decat, one which is bolt-on, bolt-off to be easily replaceable. I got quoted for around €150. I usually do push the motor, but I wasn't in this case to make sure that no damage is done until I get the cat sorted. I think it's best to also ask the exhaust shop for the other option and see what they can do. If (big if) I were to decat though, would it be best to tune the car or would the stock ECU handle it? As far as I know, the stock ECU is not tunable and that would require additional purchases.

      As above, definitely bash it or get it replaced with a high flow unit.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Right, its been a while for updating this car, but I made some small but important progress today. In the end I bought an Ecutek dongle from the Australian distributor Tunehouse (for local hardware support) but have gone with a remote tune from Racebox in the US (because they have done millions of these, and I could not find any tuner where I could access the tune anyway as they are all password locked). The App is reasonably easy to work with, but the PC software reminds me of Haltech's ECU Manager that you need to use with the Plat Pro ECUs, it is a nightmare.  Anyway, I sent the details over, got back a tune file and a request for data logs. I finally got a chance to access a private test track today as they want redline logs in 3rd and 4th, and have sent them back for the first round of reviews. The main difference in the tune is going from 1.0 (stock) to 1.3 bar (19psi), although I'm sure is a lot of other stuff in the background. Keeping in mind this is a dead stock car with 125,000klm, this is what the App's performance test claimed: Before After Interesting to note that both 400m tests had the same terminal speed (158klm/h) but different ETs. And no, the speed limiter seems to be higher than that at 186kl/h. Summary of the key logged parameters for the 3rd and 4th gear runs were: Those little turbos were certainly whizzing at 200,000rpm+.  Also I'm really not that excited about oil pressure 55psi at redline so I think I'll go thicker than 5w30 (nissan recommend 0w20....) and see if that improves it. Other than that (and the big boost spike....) everything looks good as a start to me.
