P.S. Max, please delete that first photo of my wild swing which exposed my large gut!!
Your request will be granted, if I can figure out how. I thought that the use of weight distribution gave you the ability to balance, with grace and control.
Sorted :)

Had a great day. Thanks execs !!!!!!!!!!!!!!:) Had to bail out after the prize draw to go to family commitments. How did the mystery cruise go?

Looking forward to more SAU events now that I have a bit more time to cruise again.

Maybe next year we can break the record and go for 120 cars.

did you mean this one???

be proud - didn't that shot go over the road?

one of them went over the road :) i was ruthless with the pathetic bowling :)

come one troy, i wanna see them pics u took :bunny:

anna is soo gonna hate us ;)

Had a mad arse time peoples, was a bit ruined by people flogging off the peace with rev limiters. Just remember it is fine to flog your car, just try not to do it where the cruise is being held. We all know what an rb rev limiter sounds like.

Great day though, enjoyed looking at all the hotted up rices. Hope another cruise comes up soon.

shame actions of one can bring the image of our whole club down

Exactly, though it wasn't just one person, nor was it just the R31s that have already been mentioned. I believe there was an R34 that did a burnout too, and a couple of R32s/R33s that made a heap of noise when they left. Not cool.

Remember guys, what you or your mates do reflects on all of us.

Marc you should change your av, you don't wear glasses do you?

Had a great day guys and thanks to all organisers. Didn't see any of the burnouts/skids in question but heard the odd rev limiter.... :)

Anyway here are some pics, nowhere near everyone's car and you can probably tell I like 34's.... :)

I have highres versions if anyone wants one.

Cheers!

Don't bag it out too much guys - I've been on a boostlosing cruise *cough* and the behaviour today vs what I saw on that cruise is worlds apart. The odd skid or two and people banging it off the limiter as they leave is NOTHING (not that I'm condoning it).

On the aforementioned cruise I saw several GTSt's with GT-R badges on them (a heinous crime in its own right), and absolutely outrageous behaviour such as blocking all 4 lanes of the M1 and slowing traffic down to 60km/h on a busy Sunday morning so two guys could race. I saw this happen at least 4-5 times. A large group of cars also suddenly pulled over onto the shoulder of the M1 in a 100km/h zone (illegal) then when it came time to take off were just pulling out near-suicidally into the traffic.

I had my girlfriend in the car and I both was concerned for our safety (more concerned than I usually am sharing the roads with the general Commodore-Hilux-truck-driving public) and embarrassed to be associated with such anti-social behaviour. I saw several members of the public abuse people on the cruise - deservedly. On arrival at the cruise destination several guys initiated an impromptu hi-fi "sound off" (my subwoofer is bigger than your ego etc.) too. There were no activities or BBQ organised so everyone stood around in the hot sun until they got bored and left.

That said, there WERE some great cars there and I met a few nice people, but what we had today was fantastic in comparison. So let's focus on the positives here, we have a great club, it was an awesome day, no-one did figure-8's and showered people with gravel and dickhead driving during the cruise was kept to a minimum.

/end rant!!! :)

I agree totally with Jmac. Oh maybe totally.

What he said is completely true about boostcruising cruises in comparison to the SCC...cant compare them in regards to organisation and structure.

However in saying that very few ppl were dickheads on the day is true...i still think old mate no front bar R34 should have his HKS SSQ blow off valve taken from him as i think he really enjoys the sound of it above 6k RPM.

Cheers for the cruise.

    • It's the adhesive holding the ceramic wheel to the shaft the fails on 90% of them.
    • Foreign debris, physical shock, boost leak, could be anything honestly. The danger in taking all the timing out of a tune/hitting the R&R corner is that even if the engine doesn't detonate your turbo is taking a lot of abuse from high EGT. Also, even if nothing goes wrong it is a journal bearing that is spinning at 100k RPM on boost. Eventually it goes through enough cold start/pressure cycles to wear it out.
    • I kinda accidentally saw this, and was interested, but It actually seems to replaces the whole center computer, using the existing screen and buttons. AND it may only be for a G37 and not compatible with a Japanese 370. So its not for me, but someone else may be interested to look into it. Its about $680USD. If I am understanding it right, it basically replaces/installs and android pc that integrates with the existing screen. But I could be wrong. https://gromaudio.com/vline/ The video I first saw was the following, with very little and unclear details.     Even if your not interested in the system, the video on their site was pretty comforting in showing how simple the whole centre comes out
    • hfygrte52 what side you looking for? Do you care what color car it's off? Found a white LH side on here: https://skylinespares.com.au/product/nissan-skyline-r33-coupe-rear-tail-light/   Aussie parts place but will ship to USA. Maybe get it before there's a tarrif on 25yo shit box parts
    • I’m with Shannon’s for all 5 of our cars. Agreed values seem fair, premium price is okay. ($210 ish a month, all comprehensive).  Have claimed once with them for a not at fault claim with another car where my car had no damage. Was one call after the incident and an email after. Deemed not at fault so premium didn’t go up either.    I have called up and spoken with people who are not familiar with certain cars and didn’t agree with me on value or let their personal vehicle preferences effect the call. But called back later and got someone else who was more agreeable.
