OK...we know Ruby had a try with a June date...so here goes....

Some of you know us and our many charity cruises with "that other forum"

We previously mentioned we would like to organise a winter cruise with a Pub lunch included

I found a hills pub today that is happy to give us a private room (no charge) and a 3 course lunch for $19/head....

we will have 3 choices, ring our choices through to them on the morning & your lunch will be waiting for you

(in the private room) when you arrive.

So lets have a crack at it,would you like to join us on a 2.5hr cruise followed by lunch

then a 40min cruise back to the metro ?

If you bring your kids, OLD Jules will have a surprise for them to enjoy on the drive. If the G/F, partner, missus

usually stays at home...then this is one for her too. No we wont be driving hard...but there are some interesting roads

included....YES that will mean, it will (then be) camera/video friendly...Ryan

"the OLDS" - Jules & Mark

PS...no this is not a charity cruise...just a family friendly cruise

Put us down as a maybe- new baby and all, we'll be right at the back this time if we come :thumbsup:

Will vote later when we've had some sleep and can make an informed desicion

Its the OLDs from the custom inports video. Ill have to get your autograph. The first 3 weekends are good for me. Ill be the same Glenn, if I can talk the wife into coming this time Ill be behind the pack with the newest baby stagea member aswell. Jules might need a few rattles for the kids. Ha Ha.

Cant wait maybe the pub will attract a record number.

This will be a "Rain, Hail or Shine Cruise"...as we have managed a warm private room

I should get the menu today & will throw it up. We are hoping the "slower, nanna pace" :yes: and the "family...everyone is invited" will give this small section of SAU (& the media) a

different perspective. (...not suggesting all cruises should be this way)

"us OLD peeps"

GUYS...can I suggest we lock in a main meal from Menu 1 or 2 on the day

...those wanting the full package can indicate it on arrival, it's just

the main meals in a small hotel take a while...apologies I got my prices confused in my first post (go easy Im OLD)

(so on route we will ring them, with an ETA & your main meal order)

BLUMBERG HOTEL

24 SHANNON STREET, BIRDWOOD, SA 5234.

These are our sample group menus. Please do not hesitate to ring.

Cheers

Rebecca Markham

I would LOVE to join you Mark & Jules. However my stagea bottom end has finally said enough is enough (track day april 11 lost ringlands to piston#5); being towed on Monday for a budget bottom end replacement. Wish I had the funds to do it properly, but in a hard state at the moment in regards to money, the pension supplies barely enough to eat and pay for power bills :(

Lets LOCK IN the date !....will make it easier for everyone, so it is now

SUNDAY 17th JULY

...please disregard the poll (I can't delete it maybe Ruby or someone else can)

OLD Mark

PS...please let us know if you can't make it on that date.

    • Yes, but it's not as easy as pulling a fuse on anything other than an R32. There's a routine you have to do, involving disconnecting a loom plug and bleeding down the preload.
    • A question for tuning awd, is it possible to disable the AWD? The stagea is an EA/T AWD, Toshi had said on a GTR, he was able to disable it and make it 2wd. Just wanted to double check if this was possible
    • Whoa, that's a name I've not see for a long time! Sorry to hear about the engine / turbo damage.  Fwiw with any engine problems it often really a case of just seeing what happens when it's apart, ymmv - I wouldn't rule out the possibility that the damage isn't even from the turbo failure, or possibly from a combination.  The airflow between cylinders isn't dead even, injectors can go off over time as well, with the turbos overboosting if you didn't have upgraded fuel system there could have possibly been a bit of leaning out - stock triggering is often a bit unreliable by this age too.  Basically its an old engine and a few things could have been going on, and you won't know how much work is needed until the engine is apart.  
    • I'm just shocked there's a euro driver on our roads who is thinking of other road users and not attempting to blind everyone. I wonder if Prank uses his indicator too...
    • Its hard to tell really. The Q50 owner's forum talks about it a lot and has quite a few people directly affected, but no idea what % of cars sold actually had the block replaced. Also, there seem to be 2 distinct issues which both get diagnosed by Infiniti as requiring a block replacement (no wonder they are going broke) 1. "Porous block" where coolant mixes with oil through thin or poorly cast parts of the block 2. Head coolant gallery plugs not sealing. If I was noticing engine coolant loss I'd start with cooling system pressure test (as always) and then I'd pull the cam covers and reseal the coolant gallery plugs on both side before worrying about a potentially porous block.  If neither of those did the trick it would be put in a second hand engine out of japan; I haven't checked pricing but I'm sure there are plenty around by now as they've been in production 10+ years
