Some people are complete f**kwits. Unfortunately some of these people band together and start clubs and forums.

I remember the first Cruise for a Cure I went on (back when it was still the LS1 Forums arranging it). During the presentations, there were a couple of condescending remarks about the "slow 4 cylinder" imports. Nothing nasty, since they weren't unhappy that we showed up, but still that misplaced superiority complex guys cars that just discovered IRS across the range seem to have.

All I could think was, "We might be slow, but we weren't the pussies that stayed on the Princes Highway instead of going through the Nasho as the cruise was originally advertised".

There are plenty of decent Supra owners out there. Unfortunately, they get lost in the noise. Just like the guys on ns.com - there are some decent Silvia owners there, but you'd never know it from all the children chucking their toys out of the pram.

"it would be better off if your friend didn't come with us.

there are guys here that don't like skylines or their drivers".

I don't know, but I didn't think that was very nice. On sau cruises, cars of all kinds are welcomed.

The 1 & 2jz are good, but come on, you too would be jealous of an RB engine.

Actually had this situation a while ago with a mate and his R34.

"I might rock up to the cruise"

"Erm, their are only supras on the cruise, no other cars"

"Oh ok, I guess thats kinda cool, we let any POS on our cruises. It would be nice to just cruise with skylines :P"

Guys Im a member of the nsw supra club and just wanted to clear something up.

I didnt attend that particular cruise but I know it was organised by the nsw supra club,the reason you probably werent welcome was because they firstly didnt know and if you act like a dick on the road you would have given the club a bad rap with the cops.

The club has rules about how members act while on an official club cruise so any bad behavior would reflect on the club and leave us prone to more attention fom the police.

Yeah its true some bag skylines on the forums but 99% of the time its just in jest.You guys are afterall on the darkside :P but I do hate gtst's with GTR badges on them (unless they have rb26's)

To the member who was rude to you,Im sure was only speaking for their own opinion because most of us dont care who cruises with us as long as they don't carry on like idiots.Some members attended a cruise with the silvia club and some of them started drifting and doing burnouts in a carpark in a residential area,this is what we dont want.

Cheers

I really want to just apologise for the dickhead that spoke to you like that, 97r33gtst-typeM. I have a feeling I mite know who it was and I can tell you now, no one in the club likes him, but we try not to descriminate. :O Officially it was a NSW Supra Club cruise and so only Supras were invited, but that being said, the organisers would not 'officially' tell you to piss off. It's just some of the n00bie club wankers seem to take it upon themselves to spout club policy when they have no clue how we operate. Unofficially we would have been happy to have you join us. The majority of us bought Supras because we're enthusiests and so like all types of performance cars. Unfortunately there are a vocal few that bought them because they were in some famous movies once. :D

It is in my opinion that 20% of all Supra owners are nothing more than pretencious showpony f**ktards. It's just a shame that they're more visible than the other 80% who are actually nice people. ;)

Maybe this little incident will open the negotiations on a Skyline/Supra joint cruise. I'd definately be up for it. :(

A joint cruise is a possibility

    • If you ask just me you'll get 3 different answers.
    • Do not ever trust ChatGPT with anything math related. They can't do math. They have no idea what it is. With enough data we can fit a decent equation in Excel, or if the available fits in Excel aren't good enough, a Matlab clone.
    • You could check/calibrate that with a thermometer, we have long glass thermometers at work which go from -10 to +150°c, they are pretty cheap too I believe,  as monkey fisted soldiers tend to break them, and getting new ones don't seem to send red flags to the people that hold the purse strings Edit: after a google they apparently cost about $80, but, digital ones seem to be much cheaper at around $40
    • I should have prefaced all of this with "I'd really like to not pull anything out of the car for this" 
    • Me, I would happly spend some more coin on better tyres for my street car  Will they work, yes, of course, but why substitute some dry grip/braking distance, and wet weather grip/braking distance on what is really old tech to save some coin on your "precious" street car In the end it might not be you that farks up, it's the thousands of other idiots on the street that you need to worry about  For a street car that gets some "fun time", I have found that a quality tyre that can handle dry, wet, cold (Canberra gets pretty cold) and hot conditions, which may costs a little more, is great insurance  From my experience with them (driving around Goulburn in the winter) the RE003's are pretty poor in cold and/or wet conditions on the street If RS4's didn't hate gripping in the cold I would be running them always on the street,  great in the dry, OK in the wet, but, they do hate the cold, with a passion, I run PS5's year round now, basically, I've found the PS5 to be a great year round street tyre for all conditions, they last well, and are mid range pricing wise TL;DR. Tyre choice is probably like what brand and grade oil you should use, ask 10 people, and get 10 different answers... LOL
