I was in (in order... me=ride whore on the cruise :)) The stagea...love that induction sound, The Maroon R32...awesome ride, Murray's V8 limited Soarer...mmm leather...

Lol, I'm going to apologise now for hijacking this thread with my convo with Madaz... I had good intentions of not doing so...really I did!

Madaz mate, scroll back to the post I made where I asked if 'this' was your car, I attached a pic of the rear of a candy red r33 4door I saw on the MEGAcruise earlier this year. I thought it may have been you.

I just hadn't found the pic and attached it before you aswered my post, so when you answered there was nothing there yet.

...sorry for the essay guys :D

i was thinking this the other day ... and now i need a timming belt done so car is off the road...

i was thinking of organising 1 and not leaving it open to discussion just post a date u make it or you dont and giving u a rough direction of where we are going and like the other cruise i organised 3 city points of meeting up ....

i will do this but when my car is back on the road and i am unsure as to when i will be getting the belts

i dont know what u guys thought, but IMO the roads where a little too high speed, needed more twisties and at a better time. by the time we got to the twisties just before TTP on north east road there was mass traffic and no real chances to get some good corners in. pulled over for a few minutes to get some space ahead but the traffic was moving so slow we caught up to them within a minute :/

but yeh, im just worried that with these high speed roads that it gives idiots a chance to be idiots overtaking people etc. we had a chat to that guy who pulled out from behind me after slowing off the pack to get some space up for some twisties, and almost hitting another silvia coming in the other direction after passing me at the wrong time and not being able to pull in anywhere into the pack.

last thing we need is another skyline cruise tradgedy.

well my car will be ready to go for a cruise when everyone is ready, a cruise is what im after not an all out race, especailly in this weather. Need a good stop off point with a bbq(undercover) maybe so everyone can meet and have a chat, after the cruise that is.

Bout time someone organised another midnight run..... If anyones keen PM me with details on preffered dates and times etc.

I think the last run had only two cars; myself and pete --> it meant a very fast run although i did shag my motor (its all good now though had it fixed). Wont be on in the rain due to danger!!!!!!

    • Seemed to be good when Jeff owned it but they did a shit job on my car, probably worth a think before spending 10's of thousands of dollars where they might be cutting corners
    • Starting with issues 1 - 5, we have already run into a problem...!  Issue #4 contained 2x front brake calipers, instead of 1 caliper and 1x steering knuckle. Will have to call DeAgostini on Monday to sort it out. Anyway here's some photos.  Issue #1 is the front bumper, headlights and number plate. Issue #2 is the front wheel (with "We produced with spartan air." text on the centre cap!) and tyre, the front lip spoiler and cylinder head cover with ignition coils under the centre cover... which will never be seen again. Issue #3 is the bonnet and cylinder head. Issue #4 is the front strut, brake disc (with laser etched metal discs) and brake caliper. I stopped here because of the issue with the missing steering knuckle.  Next update will be #5 - #10 in a few weeks.
    • DeAgostini is one of a few companies that release quite large (the largest commonly available size actually) 1/8 scale models in a series of weekly issues over 100 - 110 instalments.  They release different models for different markets and DeAgostini Japan have release the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo last month. I've made two of these 1/8 scale sized cars (one an R35 GT-R from 2012 - 2014, the other I'm just about halfway through, a BNR34 Skyline GT-R from the 2Fast 2Furious movie) so when this R32 was announced there was no way I could ignore it as it's my favourite out of all Nissans.  Each issue costs around $20 so it costs about $2.2K when completed. I suppose it is very expensive for what it is, but the quality and details are really very good, and there are many "gimmicks" like fully functioning exterior and interior lights operated with a remote control, working steering, all doors/bonnet/boot/fuel lid open and close, the side mirrors fold in and it even has a speaker for the engine revving sounds when you turn the lights on.  Each issue comes with a magazine that tells the story of the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo from the first design stages of the BNR32 to Group A homologation and the various racing version that were run in the Japanese Group A and JGTC, and Australian Group A.  So I plan to update the build in this thread 5 issues at a time.  https://deagostini.jp/r32/?srsltid=AfmBOooKjxDc4EUK2rmXqMBPgyHfFJ24s4oEPJBNpnF-lFlsRoW0PE6P
