even though we dont technically qualify coz we ride in a commodore, me and jaffa were cruizin with the originals (rob, joel, whatsisname, bugalugs etc) before SAU was around :P

Don't worry Andrew I will be along to a cruise soon .. wont be a Skyline but the Supra will be there :(.... mind u unfortunately it is on where near as powerful and crazy as the 33 so I won't be able to do any "Drift Antics" like the old days :(

Got a few more things to do to the car before I am happy enuf with it to cruise.

Timmy u right, where did GTR King go?... still remember the circle work on the first days cruise :D

Thanks for organisin that last minute stuff andrew.. was good 2 catch up and there was a HEAP of new faces that i've never seen before too. Nice havin lunch @ the crown.. just need to get rid of the sunday drivers towing their trailors and takn up two lanes..

Tim

That's pretty fu@king funny that you didn't make it Dean...! Hope it's an easy fix, spewing that you couldn't go on a cruise that you organised!! :(

Was a good social day and the lunch at the Crown meant that everyone could introduce themselves.

Those bloody Sunday drivers on the way home. Sheeesh!

Thanks Andrew for stepping up and organising the destination in Dean's absence.

We kept on going after Stirling as had other plans for the afternoon. Hope we didn't miss too much action after that.

Till next time.

Stu

Yeh well i made it there, but realised i wouldnt b able to fix the steering in time, and also i was feeling so sick, that as i left bunnings carpark, i threw up :D So yeh shit happens. I was so hanging to go aswell cos it was the nicest day :)

Someone organise another cruise pls...

:) no worries guys .... I was happy to lead Dean's damn cruise :D lol .... turns out it was a top day weather-wise, nice easy route, not too much traffic (except the last part, which was the best road :( ), no-one speeding (or caught anyway), no defects or trouble. I hate it when someones foot slips off the clutch at Lofty too :burnout: :devil:

Nice to meet the new guys. As dorky as it sounds we WILL have big daggy name tags for the next cruise so it's easier to meet the new guys. I thought I had brought the labels along for this cruise but forgot them anyhow. If everyone has to wear them then everyone is equally dorky!

So, the next cruise .... I suggest go-karting at Port Elliot (since we drove past it yesterday) - how about Sunday 29th Feb?

edit: date was wrong

    • Reasonably hard, although I haven't run it with the new Endless setup yet. The old brakes were F50's on 335mm rotors and the car did a 1:40.6 at Phillip Island which is a reasonable time, I'm seeing high 600s on the temperature paint. A guy I know ran the Endless fluid at WTAC without issues and he was doing 1:33's I think (Evo) with a 355/332 setup. I don't get out to the track as much as I'd like but we put the car on the hoist and spanner check every bolt and re-paint mark everything, bleed the brakes, change the fuel, check the coolant system and re-bleed blah blah blah before every event. Motorsport is expensive, RB's are expensive so a couple of hours before an event is time well spent. It's also a net time saving because if you can keep your RB from self destructing it saves you time in the long term!
    • Welcome Alice......hope you have a bit more luck from here on! What was done in the build?  
    • Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!
    • Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!
    • I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
