I get really frustrated when people make comments like this. It's the "hanger ons" that do all the ****ed up things. Not "boostcruising".

Think before you speak eh?

Sorry didn’t mean to offend you I have met you a couple of times and you seem like a really nice person and I don’t want to start a slanging match, but contrarily, if people are saying bad things about BoostCruising, then maybe some of the senior members should be looking “why” people are saying it, and taking measures to rectify it. As they say “where there is smoke there is fire”.

Unfortunately the “hangers on” may indeed be causing the problems, but if nothing is done by the senior members to teach the proper etiquette on a cruise, then they know no better.

I mean who wants to hear someone’s stereo playing over the UHF, blocking off all other communication? That is something easy to rectify.

Whether they are all “members” or “hangers on” is irrelevant, people gauge BoostCruising on their experience when cruising with them.

A lot of people are saying that there are problems now and I admit it was not always so, it used to be fun to go, but now the dynamics are changing and hiding your head in the sand is not going to change that. Soon the knob factor will reach critical mass and BoostCruising will be a yobbo’s club and nothing more

This is why *You* invite skylinesaustralia and no one ever attends.

But hell, I guess it is much easier to have a go at people for commenting on it, as opposed to doing something about it.

Oh and by the way, I always think before I say anything.

(this is not a dig at you personally or BoostCruising, just an observation is all)

Hmm i tend to agree with nexus9 there... I dont visit BC as much as i used to... i do not really like the content that is posted on that forum much anymore.

I find SAU to be pretty professional and the wealth of information/knowledge that gets shared is incredible! This is definately one of the better forums i visit.

*back on topic*

Bring on another cruise! i wanna be there for it next time :(

What you talkin' about James? Not like you look any diff in real life :D

Cruise worked out extremely well and I too am looking forward to the next one. Sorry I had to leave just before the end as the missus was waiting for her eye lash and brow treatment.

Had a little difficulty over the bumpy parts keeping my front wheels on the ground with the standard shocks up front and DMS out the back.

I couldn't help myself, and rung up the supervising officer of the policeman who pulled me and the other guy over and gave the policeman a wrap on how he wasn't a dichead about rego plates ;) If only they were all like that.

4 doorz

hmm... i see my ugly mug there too... ek.

got that locked diff back today by the way... although i probably wont put it back in... makes everyday driving quite uncomfortable. maybe if i just drifted every corner it would be sweet.

can you change your nick no these forums? i may as well be Mr. O from now on :(

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
