cruses are a massive thing at the mkment, my FB is full of cruses constantly.

But have you seen the quality of cars on those big cruises? Do you really want to cruise with P-plater 18 years olds in their beat-up EA falcons and 1980's Corollas? I can't imagine anything worse.

Yes small meet-ups are much better, except it is hard to hang out in a carpark as it attracts instant cop attention.

The V35 guys are actually having a small meet-up this Saturday night, but it for VQs only sorry :P

Completely agreed. For the last 2 years of the SAU:SA club we organised about 10 events and had literally only a handful of people turn up to each event. Hence the club disappeared. You are only as st

Still remember when SAU SA was firing really well.

There was a real great period of time for imports that I believe has passed in terms of group social events for those that are mature, its up to the numbers if they want to see each other, without that nothing can really be done.

Nothing wrong with small groups, better than having large groups in most cases, less chance of drawing unnecessary attention,just my opinion.

The larger a cruise the more attention it will attract, which attracts more dickheads and so on and so forth...

For the love of good some kient organise something hahahaha :P

So we seem to actually have a few people posting in here recently, lets make the most of it and have a small catch up!

Got the mother-in-law over from UK for another week but after that I have a month before the father-in-law arrives, so can spare a couple hours some time.

What suits best? Sat / Sun/ weekday, Time?

I prefer earlyish so not out too late, getting old! haha!!

      R34 power steering

      By drifter17a · Posted

      I have done smoke test and can’t see any leak on high or low side.   checked pump and fluid can flow through. Removed the high pressure from steering and did smoke test and same on low side, no leak.   puzzled. Thinking why if it was all ok it suddenly went as car was off road for a year. Don’t want to disassemble pump yet as i can see fluid / air( compressor) can flow through with no issues

      Actually,  just remembered there should be info in the threads (somewhere) about swapping to a manual steering rack and deleting power steering all together.

      Thinking of getting a Q50 300hp and just tuning it instead of getting the Q50 Red or 400R

      By 180 wanabe · Posted

      Also had a look at the Nissan JP website looks like the 400r has a slightly shorter ratio than than the regular V37 3.133 VS 2.937 which from a guy who has driven both 3.69 vs 4.11 ratios in the S15 is bugger all. Seems that the AUTO Z runs the same ratio as the 400R but can't find any info as to if its an open or LSD? More often than not the auto LSD is open

      Do not replace the power steering lines with this stuff. If it's anything like the Chase Bays stuff it will leak and be worse than stock. The reason why the reservoir is on the LH/passenger side of the car is because that's just where the reservoir was most convenient to fit. Don't overthink this stuff. The intake/cold side of the engine is pretty busy on these cars. And again, the hardpipe is designed to be a janky power steering cooler. In theory you can replace it with a real power steering cooler but that's really only for track use where boiling the fluid is a distinct possibility. Start with the low pressure lines feeding the pump from the reservoir. Make sure there isn't a bunch of junk in the reservoir filter. Be careful to not get ATF all over the engine bay. I hate dealing with ATF spills, you can clean it up and the slightest crevice will still release more oil that can still drip over time. You also want to inspect for leaks before you make a mess and can't tell what happened. Most likely you have a leak somewhere that is allowing fluid out and air in. Failing that it's allowing air in but not fluid out. Only place I can really see that happening is on the low pressure side because the pump will pull a slight vacuum to draw fluid in. Everything after the pump is high pressure or lower pressure, approaching atmospheric by the time it returns to the reservoir.
