Should We Put A Stop To Organised 'regular' Cruises


Recommended Posts

i didn't vote for 3! and I'm sorry but i think its bullshit. I've tried to stay in the middle and not make any negative comments.. but separation is just plain crap!

I don't want to be restricted to going out on stag cruises..

yeah looking at the votes Nene, there's a distinct possibility that's the way it may go through some thoughtless votes.

My thoughts:

Vote 1 for SAU sanctioned cruises (not necessarily Neil but sapol in general, just like Zippel Cruises).

Vote 2 for privately organized cruises.

IMO i think we should have both, Monthly/Annual SAU Cruises/Events and then privately organised Bunny/Stag cruises/events. Just have to be clear that the private cruises are just a meet up and drive, not labelled as an SAU sanctioned event.

i think this poll is a terrible idea its turning car enthusiasts"us" against each other which is bs in the end if it does not stop or work i think people will start togo there own way and could be the end off it all because off this cruise shit.

if you dont agree with me that's fair enough im not here to argue its pointless.

the idea off getting sms is good but there should be some detective work from the mods to see who's ip is where if they can do that at all.?can you ip trace ppl cubes nightcrawler etc.

if you can then you will know if its located at cop shop. im not certain on this if it will work but hey its a idea.

Far out!!

This is a full on thread and a little sad. I think the guys that do all the organising do an excellent job..but organising a cruise is better left for private viewing I think..you know who is attending and less attention.

If cops are wanting to attend the cruises that cant really be a good thing..

I attend regular events with different club and just done Dutton Rally and they were cops in Goulburn (country town an hour outside sydney) were notified that they had 65 highly and midly modified sticker up race cars in there town and where looking for us to make trouble but we were all well behaved and nothing happened and they left us alone..but that still wont make the police any better in there way of thinking towards us next year!

I think the police presence flares up when they think more of one thing is happening to regulary and obviously a concern in there eyes..

I know some great cops that have more suped up cars than mine but when there doing there job its a different senario.

Its a real shame as SA always seems to cop the worst for police attention..but then again I dont do alot of street stuff anymore now I live in Sydney, My car only comes out to take it to the track :)

I hope you guys get this sorted and works out the best for everyone.

    • Got the motor out and torn down. I'll be dropping off the block Monday. Luckily the scoring on Cyl6 is much less pronounced then the pictures made it out to seem. It can barely be felt. If you pass your finger over it 10x you'll barely notice it. Hopefully by some chance it will only require a honing. I'm not in the mood to buy one size larger pistons or another block. Oddly enough my 6th cylinder with the scoring has extremely clean intake valves compared to my other 5 cylinders. I'm worried the scoring was caused by too much fuel or Water/Methanol washing the cylinder. I'll review some old logs to confirm.  This was also the first time I pull an engine with the transmission still attached. It went much better then expected. I was worried my CD009 wouldn't make it easy due to its sheer size but it was much easier this way. 
    • From the pictures I have when doing the job the flywheel is the same diameter, I don't think they're playing weird tricks like putting weights at the outer diameter to increase flywheel inertia or anything like that. The OEM flywheel is definitely heavier, but it's not a huge difference. Quoted weight savings of the clutch is 2 kg so I can't imagine the flywheel being lighter than ~7 kg. Kind of regret not weighing it before the clutch went into the car but as far as driveability goes I have no complaints.
    • HKS trigger kit should be very easy to integrate with a Link. It's a 36-2 crank trigger. Hard part is finding the motivation to take off the timing belt and everything on the front of the engine to install it. You also need to cut out a hole in the oil pump housing so the sensor can read the trigger wheel. Changing out the cam sensor for a 24 tooth setup is probably good enough but as others have mentioned depending on what underlying assumptions are changed it becomes more of a problem. Reading the crank state off of the cam is an abstraction that works in the general case, but if you have an edge case it makes less and less sense. There is a GTX2860 gen 2 that can take a compact 5 bolt housing so it's direct bolt on but I'm not 100% sure of what's involved. Peak compressor efficiency drops off a bit on these turbos vs -5s, 77% vs 73% but you get way, way wider region of operation. The -5s have a really strange surge line in their compressor map that is all over the place. If you think the hot side on the -5s aren't open enough you can try the Tomei T550B turbos which a local tuner seems to be happy with:
