30th Aug cruise! CHANGE OF MEETING POINT!!! Read


Recommended Posts

EDIT - 30th AUG CRUISE CHANGE OF MEETING POINT!

Due to the expected numbers (~20, give or take) it’ll be better if we change the meeting place to the Bunnings car park in Mile End (near Autobarn). This’ll give us a heap more room, & it’s not too far from the previous meeting points.

The Bunnings cark park is located @ 108 Railway Tce, Mile End. It’s just over the Hilton Bridge. If coming from West Tce, head down Sir Donald Bradman Drive (use to be called Burbridge Rd) & you can’t miss it on the left : )

Sorry for the change fellas : ( But this way we’ll have heaps of room & still be left to ourselves (hopefully).

Cheers, see ya’ Friday @ ~8.00-8.30pm!

Matt

I've already posted this in the "Aaron has car fixed cruise 30/08" thread, but just in case you guys missed it, here it is again.....

Thought I'd put out an invite to some friends:

The Aussie LS1(Commodore) Forum lads.

They have a cruise organised for the 30th too! (They meet on West Tce @ Shell) So why not join together? They're a great bunch of blokes, one of my bosses is amongst them

There are a few of these boys with some big power! (265rwkw GTS) so it'll be a good night hopefully.

Oh yeah, "JAFFA" has cruised with these guys before too!

John (Munro), if you're reading this, how about bringing the R33 out for a play? Please!!!!!!!!!!!!! Failing that the 34 will do fine mate.

:lol: :lol: :lol:

whatsisname, Thanks for the invite, hopefully will get a good responce! were do you prefer to meet mitre 10 at the bay or in town, I think the bay would be the go more space.

anyways will keep ya posted.

cya Friday :D

Oh ! btw does Jaffa normally cruz with you guys

and whats ya bosses net handle.

:)

Bugs,

You idiot :D :lol:

BRUTE,

Welcome mate! :) Only too happy to invite you lads (or us join you).

Yeah the Mitre 10 we always meet @ is the bay one, it's got a small cark park + a fair few parking spaces along the road.

Yep Jaffa has been on most of the cruises I've been to, including a long hills session we had recently!

The bosses net handle is BBB, he drives a Silver VX Berlina, or is it Calais? It's got a HBD kit, looks really good! Soon to get a DT exhaust system fitted too!

I'll See ya' on Friday,

Matt

Matt,

So when is the FMIC going to be in & operational? It better be done by Friday!!!

All,

BRUTE has posted a similar thread on the Aussie LS1 Forum. With a good turn out (from both groups) it should be a great night! :)

:D

Matt,

While you're @ it you should make an MP3 of a vent to atmo' BOV sound, then you just hit "play" on the stereo every time you change gears :lol: On a more serious note, it's a bummer you can't get the pipes done (& fitted) by Friday :D

Andy, C’mon dude! You absolutely, positively, most definitely must be there on Friday night! :uh-huh: :mad:

Quickly drop in to the birthday do & say a quick :D Then deliver your present :Party: & then flat foot it on down, too easy!

Matt

Hey cool, sounds great! Hope to see the LS1 boys there!

JAFFA will be there with the usual car load :mad: damn that extra weight!

Sounds like it will be a whopper of a cruise if we have the usual skyline bunch and the commy crew :D

saweeeet :)

GFXman

GFXman,

The Adelaide LS1 lads aren't a big group so it'll still be a low key affair, but hopefully we get a good turn out of both Skylines & VT/VX LS1 powered beasts! (& maybe the odd S15)

:uh-huh:

Hey Matt, do you guys have a planned route or is it the normal scene.

yeah we only just got together a few weeks ago, need to do a recruitment drive;)

so with Jaffa and others, (BBB, not sure if he's coming) we should have about 9 LS1's on the night + your crew

:mad:

BRUTE,

We've got a few good routes we normally use, I'll get Bugalugs (another Matt!) to select a good mix of straight & twisty stuff for all to enjoy. Feel free to add any roads the LS1 guys prefer.

I'm pretty sure BBB is keen to go! He was when I spoke to him yesterday. I think his new D&T exhaust (if he gets it in time?) will prompt him along :mad:

It won't be long till the SA "Aussie LS1 Forum" numbers grow, it's an excellent site!

Andy,

Bug's was telling me you'd had the bar done, good stuff mate! Yeah that's the spirt, we'll see you a "tiny" bit later on in the night then :uh-huh:

Nightcrawler (sorry mate I've forgotten your first name :) )

Nothin' 'odd' about an S15! :D Except when one of the damn things kick your arse over the 1/4 @ AIR! Import S15 - 12.8 @ 110 vs me (my time in my sig')

It's lookin' good for Friday :)

sounding good.... i assume the LS1 lads know of the meeting place change?

I reckon we should incorporate the Freeway/mt Osmond run... be good to get everyone's cars stretching their legs a bit :mad:

GFXman & JAFFA

    • Hi. A little bit of an update. It maybe(hope not) looks like i would need a new tranny(it would be "maybe" a cheaper or better option anyway) So i need some info. I know i need a different propshaft(i can make custom one) LSD is not a problem cuz the engine will be still(for now) N/A RB20. So if i buy RB25DET NEO tranny...is there something else i need? I read something about push/pull type but i do not know if i need to "change" something or i can just plug n play onto my engine a go? Thanks for the advice  
    • Good morning all, Bit of a random question but figured I’d finally throw it out after wondering for a long while. Before I start, I'm hoping to do this purely out of personal preference. I think it would look better at night, and don't mind at all spending a few hours and dollars to get it done. I've copied this from a non-Skyline specific forum, so I apologize for the explanation of our headlight switch setup that we all know. Here we go: Zero lights (switch off) Parking lights (switch position 1) being a rectangular marker on the outside of the housing, my low beam being the projector in the centre (position 2), and a high beam triggered by my turn signal stalk. Most North American cars I’ve owned of this era have power to the amber corner (turning indicator) light as part of the first switch (parking lights). I’d love to have these amber corners receive power when the headlights and parking lights are on (headlight switch), yet still blink when using the turn signal which is of course a separate switch. Hopefully I’ve explained my question correctly. Is anyone aware of a way in which I might be able to achieve this? Thanks in advance
    • My heads are cathedral port! It's likely possible, but I don't want to add any extra moving parts (I know they don't move) between the heads, manifolds, etc. It will also affect how injectors/fuel rails etc sit and I don't really know if it would change how the FAST manifold goes/sits/fits. I have the LS6 steam pipes already as I have a very late LS1 block so it should be fine. I couldn't find anyone who had ever actually used one for this purpose, it seems 100% of people grind the water pump. The thermal spacers are 12mm and are half way to the cost of the newer water pump anyhow... so if it comes to that I suppose I'd rather buy a new pump. The bearing in the pump I do have is a little.. clunky, but it hasn't done that much time and I never noticed it when the car was together in the past few years, so..
    • The bushing has failed, not all that uncommon for a car of this age.  Any mechanic should be able to push in a new bushing for you, or you can probably buy the entire lower control arm, complete with bushes.
    • Could you not use "thermal" spacers to give the clearance, like the ones I used between the blower and head? That raised the manifold height by around 10-15mm Albeit the ones I used were for cathedral ports, but I assume they have similar for rectangular ports????
