Hi Everyone!!

For the last 2 years, the SA car scene has come together to celebrate Christmas with a cruise.

This year will be no different.

HARDTUNED.NET CHRISTMAS CRUISE

Date: Friday, 12th December 2008

Meet: ETSA Park carpark on Railway Tce, Mile End

Time: 8:30pm

PRIZES

Hardtuned.net will be giving away a bottle of Castrol oil to the following:-

"Best Paint" - nice, shiny paint that has been well looked after - Judged by Johnny JSPEC

"Best Wheels" - good fitment and suits the car well - Judged by Benny Mack

CHARITY

Being Christmas time, we want to remember those families who are less fortunate. Again this year, we'll be accepting soft toys or gold coin donations from members who have the money or want to contribute - its not compulsory.

ALL items/money raised will be give to The Playford Salvation Army.

The Salvos will then pass on our gifts directly to families who come to the centre for food and gifts.

Those of us with Christmas hats will be handing out maps and collecting donations.

As per usual, police will be notified of the cruise. They are quite cooperative and only target those that are doing the wrong thing (speeding, spinning the wheels etc).

check the ns.com site under sa events for updates and more info cheers

i guess the more the merrier tis the season after all

anyone goin from here? pretty sure i will with a couple of mates from down my way should be free and for a good cause

I'll be there with a mate.

Coz I lost my licence he was gonna drive my car. But today he bought his own 32 so we'll be cruisin down in that!

Cant wait, should be a good cruise!

yeah i was on the last one was a wicked turnout was in a mates car last time but ill be in mine this time best thing is if you don't act like a tool you'll get left alone so its real good fun

Was coming to this as it is alwaysa good event, but can not make it anymore as i got hit in the arma cricket training last night and now can not drive for at least this weekend. :D

Turn out was great but the "cruise" was pretty short and uninteresting - out the carpark, up the freeway, into another carpark. Highlights of the cruise would be tunnels and the part where everyone was all over the place being lost. But I guess the route couldnt be helped with the rain restricting where it would be safe for a whole carpark packed full of cars to drive.

good cruise was in me mates lil red rolla, saw heslo but not the owner :)

the cruise was made that way on purpose, it was said that most ppl know other routes to the carpark so each to their own really, was good to see a few familiar faces, now time for me to get another rb under my belt :)

    • No worries, everything worked out in the end. I just wanted to make the point that it doesn't matter where it comes from (I.E Australia), it can be broken or improperly built. I would still purchase from these companies in the future. B2R - Not certain how that finished, this was on a car I wired a few things and street tuned. I know the owner ended up shipping the motor back to Australia for investigation. Hopefully some of it is covered under warranty.  Turbosmart - I always pressure test everything that goes on my car. It's a habit from my career in oil and gas. I run two 40mm's and both had major leaks from the actuator to exhaust portion through the shaft. I returned both, they shipped me back two and one was leaking and the other had a 38mm top (40mm gate with 38mm actuator cap, no idea how that happens). Eventually after a lot of back and forth I found myself with two non-leaking gates. I believe this happens a lot more then people would like to believe but you would never know if you don't pressure test them prior to installation. Crank Motorsport - Issued a full refund and let me keep the seat rails. I turned them into scrap metal for other projects. GKTech - Shipped me out a replacement and asked that I modify it as per my idea and that they would do the same for a future revision. ATP - Can just needed a large shim to bolt up properly.  Haltech - They started an actual proper Beta channel for firmware's a few months back and stopped using the general public for testing. I'm now much happier.  Speedtek - f**k Speedtek. I would love to watch them burn.     
    • I've got a Turbosmart wastegate, ATP catch can, many GK Tech parts and Haltech everything. Everything's been perfect, sorry to hear your experience wasn't the same
    • The only high-power RB I've personally seen go pop after running for all of an hour on a dyno was built by B2R, while being remotely tuned by B2R. The only wastegates I've ever had leak like a sieve, return, still leak, return and get shipped back the wrong ones were from Turbosmart. The only final drive that I've ever purchased that were unusable, twice... were from Speedtek. The only seat mounts that I've ever purchased that placed the seats in the door frame were from Crank Motorsport. The only poorly designed parts that I had the manufacturer confirm should have been designed as per what I mentioned were from GKTech. The only ECU I've had firmware updates consistently break things are Haltech. The only catch can I've purchased that didn't fit in its advertised spot was from ATP. So forth and so on... Moral of the story, doesn't matter where it's from. Do your research beforehand and stick with products and companies you've trusted in the past.    @joshuaho96 If you want it done right, do it yourself.
    • Something coarse-ish. 180 is good.
    • I was surprised to see all the quick Jack models at the same prices on there. But yeah, grabbing one at 20% off would be great.
