yeah....I thought it must have been a shop owner.....don't think there was any chance of identifying any of the cars from that distance though. I'd say that sorta thing happens there quite a bit and he's gathering evidence to take to the cops so he can say "look what we have to put up with", and try and get a police presence down there on certain nights.

That's my theory anyway...could be complete crap......I have been known to come up with some pretty far fetched conspiracy theories :(

the GC crew were there first before us so naturally, i turned in. *give you a cough drop.

SIF! The GC Crew (all 3 of us) were following some of the Brissy Boys from Logan Rd...

Props to the performers... I don't think much will come of the happy snaps... They were only stills anyway... What was with the Barina / Swift??

its was a good night. thanks to everyone who showed up. pity the rain but it did provide some form of hooning at the last stage :(

I think last night worked pretty damn well considering the rain, traffic, and other things. I don't think much else could have been done better, and the radios i think helped those that had them. Brisbane isn't the best for cruising I don't think, but its possible. Maybe North Brisbane is a possibility next time?

"Extra-curricula" activities in the carpark was kind of fun.. gotta love "secret flash guy". He's going to love looking at a set of blury photos with possibly a few red smears in there :)

ska: Trying to do a u-ie up a bit further to follow you guys and have a little fun. But ended losing you all, so just continued crusing back home.

I was a little reluctant to go out in the rain last night, but in the end I was well pleased I did. Also if the brissie guys remember the little group with the exa's and the 300zx at milton maccas, one of the exa's beached their car over a gutter at about 11:45 and I can only assume it was undriveable as when I drove past it for the third time there was a tow truck. It was at the end of the centenary freeway just before the first raoundabout at toowong.

I followed slip, thought he would be the one to follow to the shenanigans, and all three of us missed the turn, caught up to pred, but after we did the u-bolt we did a spirited dash for the highway and causght up to Mud along the highway northbound, so I am not surprised you didnt catch us, but you didnt miss much, some nice performances from the sephiro (spelling?) and of course slip :) all in all I thought for such a big group going through so many sets of lights to all stick together AWESOME waiting for the next one, so who's doing the next one?

      That cannot have been a fun set of drilling. The stock "baffle" looks identical to rb26, I just cut fuel cell foam to fit the full length under the baffle.

      I understand your sarcastic exasperation. But to be fair - the baffles do indeed fit OEM cam covers. They did omit to say that you need to do a bunch of stuff. But they do fit them.

      Got started on the modification to make these splash plates fit over the long weekend. First the surprisingly time consuming task of swapping all the cam cap bolts to Tomei cam cap studs. I did the method of removing one bolt at a time, applying loctite to the stud, double nutting to torque as the manual described. Then carefully unlocking the nuts without disrupting the torque of the stud (and going back to re-torque a few times when it slipped). Finally applying the nut and torquing to spec. Repeat x28 Next up I went about removing the stock cam cover baffle so I could ensure it was fully clean after drilling for stud clearance.  As the blind rivets holding the baffle on were domed I used a punch to mark the center then used 4mm drill bit to carefully drill out the rivet without going too far part the baffle. As seen in other thread here is what is inside the stock baffles I decided on M4x6mm bolts to bolt the baffle plate back on with. I used a 3.3mm drill bit with some tape to mark the depth at ~8mm. Next was to tap the threads using a cheap bunnings kit M4x0.7. With the baffle removed I also drilled out the spot welds holding in the baffle plate oil returns. Unsure whether this was the best option or if I should have cut holes in the Hypertune splash plates to allow the oil drains to still function... time will tell. I then removed the the Hypertune splash plates so I could rest the cam cover on top and use a dab of grease to mark where the studs impacted the oem cam cover baffle. The most obvious spot was on the hump from the stock mesh is held. Using this hole as an anchor I bolted the oem baffle plate back into the cam cover and lined up the Hypertune splash plate. Marked the rest of the holes for the studs and drill those out too. Total 32 holes drilled and 12 threads tapped on the passenger side cam cover alone for this bolt on part that totally clears all OEM cam covers.. Drivers side next as well as some E85 safe fuel foam to fill the space behind the behind cam cover baffle plates. oh and some lock nuts for the splash plates of course.
