The GTR could of done with a good squirt. O well , some one has to do it(work). Hope you all have a safe and un harassed cruise and hope to see you all another time.

Heaps of stove light's would look so cool not to mention the sound of rb's through them hills.

I didn't say it in a smart arse manner, doing so would have got me know where.. well maybe some where 'regency'.

But saying that fingers crossed it would have earned me only a trip to the local cop shop as its not registered 40km/s out of the CBD for no reason.

Yeah its all about your attitude, I was pulled over for speeding even though he didn't have a radar. He didn't try and get me for that but went over the car, saw the boost controller and its definitely too loud plus tyres are too big. He pretty much let me off with a warning but said that if I continue to speed/act like a dickhead he can play the game as well and easily send me to regency.

Definitely... I had no problems ripping the tint off as I knew from day one that it was too dark (30% on the front windows), I managed to get away with it for ~4.5years. Still haven't cleaned up the glue stuff from the passenger window properly. lol

One day. :P

MASSIVE THANKS everyone !!!! ...the weather was the best, the route was great, as was the turnout of cars. Unfortunately OLD Jules's back is still very crook & it was her first time out in the RB, since she became unwell...so we pulled the pin early.

Big ups to Brenton & Darren (sorry Daniel lol) for the organisation.....whatever Brenton has collected, we will send to the White Wreath Association but this was not about raising $$$...its about raising awareness of the silent epidemic killing our youth.

Again, SAU please accept our sincere thanks

"the dr1ft_pig13 OLDS" - Jules & Mark

PS ....we were stoked to see the current Australian Super Drift Champion Linden Reynolds (& Bec) go back to basics in a pre-loved R32 and join the cruise......

Hey awesome cruise today everyone! Even if the end of it was a bit.. all over the place. People just seemed to dissapear towards the end, and few of us did a few u-turns getting lost.

Was good to meet and talk to a few more people, even tho im still struggling to put names to faces - or faces to cars really lol. Patrick was pointing people out and saying who they were, which helped lol. I know everyone by car or username lol.

I had some people just come up and say hi, sorry if i seemed rude lol, was probly trying to figure out who you were!

But yeh, had fun, was better when i actually got to drive, altho passenger was fun, got some good photos :P

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What can i say.

I am so proud of everyone that came today.

It was a very good turnout in my books. I was a little worried at ETSA Stadium but once a few of us got to Holly Reserve and waited around more and more skylines just kept on coming into the park.

I am also proud to say that we raised a total of $200.

So on behalf of Darren & Myself I am very glad to be giving this with Mark & Julie to the White Wreath Association.

It was a shame my car was playing up and I had to stay at the back so i wouldn't hold anyone up. I just loved coming over a crest and seeing a line of skylines turning around the next corner.

Or in i think it was Normanville every single skyline taking up the main road. HAHAHAHAHAHHA That was gold.

here are the only pics i took from today.

I am so sorry about whoever was calling me. I am so sorry for telling you we were going to be in one area then we moved on. I hope you caught up with us in the end.

And also sorry for going home early. I was shagged and my car wasnt liking my passing other cars so i decided to limp it home behind Lindo back home.

I look forward to the next cruise.

Kindest regards,

Brenton.

P.s * Darren Mark means you, just got your name mixed up*.

i had fun!

nothing happened to the car the whole way but on the way home made some weird crunching sounds :P haha

hopefuly thats the last time itll look like that with its crapy paint!

awsome cruise.

also when did lindo join the cruise haha i didnt see him anywhere

i had a great time on the cruise, first SAU cruise i have been on. For those who dont know who i am which is most of you lol, i was the guy driving flicks 32 for half the cruise till she decided she was bored of being passenger and took over. Awesome roads, best route i have been on. Was good to see a decent amount was raised for the day too.

Seeya's at the next cruise.

Luke.

GREAT turn out!! Nice course, awesome weather. All good :O

Had a great day no problems, can't wait to see more pics! (It's always good to see a group of Skyline in one place).

I left for home from Cape Jervis. From home to Cape Jervis and back was about 320km for me.

Thanks for an awsome day Brenton & Daniel, The Olds (Jules & Mark) and all the SAUers :P

    • Hey @Butters, did you end up getting this clutch in ? I have just ordered to a uniclutch track to go in my getrag 6 speed that’s in my BNR 32     
    • I know you don't want to hear this comment, but I can't not say it.  I just can't see 200kw being worth the time and effort. Its like guys with NA cars, putting in headers/exhaust/tune for a massive 20% jump in power. Great, the slow car is still slow and you're down $10,000.  My vote is leave it NA or price in a gearbox upgrade and shoot for at least 300KW, preferably 350KW+.  Now you have a NC that will try to kill you from time to time and will be exciting to drive
    • Ah yep. The main message I want to pass on is, try not to get scared of ghosts when thinking about knock/knock detection.  What I mean is, healthy engines make noise. Knock is also noise. Your knock sensor and ECU combo are trying to determine bad noise from good noise based on how loud the noise is. The factory knock sensors and ECU are not good at doing this.  Modern ECU's are pretty decent at it, however I'd still say that you would want to verify that if your ECU says it's knock, that you actually listen to it and confirm that it is correct.  Are you familiar with the plex knock monitor?  https://www.plex-tuning.com/products/plex-knock-monitor-v3/ I expect you're the type of person that would be very keen to play with something like this. It is great knock detection and you can pop some headphones on and listen to what's going on.  Knock that you've deliberately induced in low load low RPM areas is not really putting anything at risk and is a great tuning/learning/verification tool.  I just thought this was worth mentioning based on the way you were talking about setting up a base map and the Haltech base map settings. There are better ways to spend your time then chasing ghosts and worrying about detonation in scenarios that it is crazy unlikely to encounter it.  I was also wondering, what ECU are you planning to get? Will it be long til you pick it up?
    • This came quicker than I thought. It ain't even 2025 yet.
    • I somehow quoted my post instead of editing it. I regret nothing.
