Hey Giz, Jeff and shane said they would come via face book but doubt it.

Terry, your really getting me confused with all the routes you are putting up. You guys are not meeting us till after are you? So are the routes your putting up for us or for you guys? Soz its just that i dont know the area well enough so not sure what your talking bout:) How bout we decide upon the one route so we can be set for sun. Once its decided on i will print it off so we can each have a coy when meetinng at the crossroads.

As previously stated, I am happy for all to come no matter what they drive.

Am not worried about the rain. Just take it easier thn we normally would. I know ill be at the back of the pack if its raining up maq pass as my traction is not good enough and far be it for me to hold up anyone else:)

If you want to meet at orange grove maccas/krispy kreme (cumberland hwy), please ensure you're there on time as ill just be stopping in get some brekkie then will hang around for about 25 mins but really dont wanna hang around if noone is gonna stop there. You cantmiss me, Mine is the black R33 with pink calipers, pink interior, pink sides of wing and pink numbers plates reading PRNSES.

Um hope ive covered everything. Terry let me know asap so i can get organised:)

I think Terry was organising us people who'll be south, and my understanding was that us "south" people will meet just outside of Albion Park, on the way to Mac Pass.

If you guys work out an approx "get to Albion Park" time, or at least call one of us when you're say, going off the Hume onto Picton Rd, or something... Even earlier possibly. I know Genelle and Terry have a hike to get to AP; Matt has a 20 min drive to mine, and then 5 from mine to AP... I think basically we'd need 1.5hrs ish warning , so even before you get on the Hume, haha... Just trying to work out how/when we'll all meet up, worst case is that all us down-here-ers meet up at Albion Park Maccas or something, someone rings when you're 5-10 mins out, then we head on over to Tullimbah to wait.

*shrug*

Just tryin to help :P

Post 2 days or day before the cruise final route for both Gemma and Terry :D that will be a lot easier and contact numbers.

I suggest both groups can meet up at this point corssing of Illawara HWy and Calderwood Road/Macquarie St.

Theres a big strip on the side front a school and accross the road is a petrol station

Gong Maccas has a terrible carpark... As someone's said, across the road from the servo in Albion Park is good, plenty of room, or out at Tullimbah.

that's the big bit on the side of the road in AP.

Thats the place I suggested :banana: and its not far away from the climb too

gong maccas will be hard for parking and most prolly high chances of COPS

Hi Gemma,

I'm thinking that if you leave Cross Roads at 11.30

> M5

> left onto Picton Rd towards Wollongong

> Princes Hwy but being careful of this 80Km/hr zone up Mt Ousley where there's often a hand-held cam pointing down from the truck stop

> down into Wollongong with its Speed Camera next to Uni

> continue along Princes Hwy past Buddhist temple, Dapto, Koonawarra and onto to large roundabout at the airport and...

> turn right (at the roundabout)(Illawarra Hwy) towards Albion Pk which is just a couple of Km

> turn right at the lights at Albion Pk onto Illawarra Hwy #48 and it's just a couple of Km to the Tullimbar Housing Estate (another roundabout)

I think a group of us will be waiting there at Tullimbar for the main convoy at say 1pm. 3 of us cars are coming up from Nowra.

There's a Shell servo with V-Power on the corner of Princes Hwy & Tongarra Rd at Albion Park Rail (not far from Albion Park).

There are only 2X overtaking sections up Mac Pass, and they are both quite a way up the escarpment.

So I'm just anticipating Gemma that perhaps those who have been extra keen to go up front, do so from Tullimbar.

The convoy from Tullimbah should go quite slow to create distance between the lead car and any traffic ahead.

There may be quite a deal of traffic anyway (unless one does a night drive or a 6am one).

I probably wouldn't stop at the base of the Pass lest the tyres get cool again.

If you guys want me to video/dvd the group going around a hairpin near the top where there's a large rock-face, I'm willing to go up a couple of minutes before the main group. But I don't mind at all what the group wants. The remainder of the dvd can be shot at the pie shop.

Does anyone wish to come back down the Mac Pass after lunch - or take Jamberoo Mtn Rd (opposite the pie shop) and turn left at Swamp Rd to Albion Pk? The latter route is interesting too. I'll let you Gemma make an Exec decision on that.

Safe travelling.

You of course Gemma can read the initial 'riot act' out to the main group at Cross Roads eh? Feel free to PM me. It's still your baby! :)

Did you break my old motor?? What happened this time? :) And wheres those pics you promised me haha

It looks like it... LOL

It now has a knocking sound in it... But if you were at Texi, you'd be surprised the thing is even still running... It spent more time bashing the hard cut rev limiter then anything... LOL

As to pics of the engine bay... I haven't actually got any since your block went in. Should get a couple before I change it all again.

But yeah, has a nice tap to it, need to find out what is causing it, then fix it.

      R34 Diff oil

      Sadly I can confirm if you are actually seeking to drift, you will quite easily spin up one wheel. Even if you're going in a straight line. I am not entirely sure of the metrics/terminology here but there's only a certain amount that the helical will actually spin both wheels. I've seen it on video with my own car where two lines of smoke switch over to just one after you really get in to it. Unlike with a clutch diff where you can keep your foot planted until the car regains grip, in my experience with the helical you want to be utilizing traction control allowing LIMITED slip or lifting (partially) when you start to spin up both tyres with a Nissan helical. Which makes them pretty sub optimal for drifting duty. That said... this is probably a helical on numbers alone. Just put the Kazz in

      R34 Diff oil

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Unlikely, as per Greg's post. This is not helical diff behaviour unless one wheel is up off the ground. Shimming what? You don't "shim" a mechanical LSD. Probably not in the sense that you have heard of people "shimming" a diff. And the process that Nissan f**kwits call "shimming" a diff involves super-preloading a VLSD cartridge against the side of the diff to create a friction/wear point (in a place that it wasn't supposed to have one) to make the sloppy, useless, viscous diff into a hybrid viscous/mech abortion. In case it isn't clear, I consider the process to be stupid. Nike.

      Short shifter r34

      By Duncan · Posted

      How much does the shifter move when the car is in gear with the engine off? If it is more than about 1cm you need to replace your shifter bush. Your shifts will just get crunchier, not faster, with a short shifter unless you also rebuild the whole box
