Great cruise! Unfortunately i couldn't make it all the way up to noosa as i had to be back in brissie at 3pm for oztag training (which ended up getting cancelled at the very last minute after i got back :P ), but i did make it as far as ettamogga pub.

Awesome to see so many 34's out there and to meet more fellow skyline owners!!! And i must say that it was great to see everyone driving sensibly (well as far as i saw anyways).

Good on llynden too for making it out, after his misfortune friday night...

Thanks for a great day out all!!! Hope to do it again in the future soon!!! And can't wait to see everyone's pics!

the next one i will make sure is more organised....i liked the destination alot, so there might be another one up there again, but with silvias included, and all rb power'd vehicles.

I know my best friend (who was my passenger for the day) will be keen on this. He was itching to bring his 180sx out...

Shame we didn't pass through any big tunnels on the way, would've loved to have heard the rumble of the RB's resonating whilst going through one!!!

Oh and i'm still drooling over the R34 GTR!!! Very nice!!!

Id like to thank all that came far and wide for the cruze, was good to meet some people and parking up there was fantastic.... SKYLINE REPRESENT!!!!

:) Matt

We like to say thx for the great cruze, it was our first,looking 4ward to the next. It was great to see & meet other Skyline drivers/ oiwners & passengers but most important.......other SKYLINES. I will incude some photos from the cruze next time i'm on line.

Thanks to everyone that came. was a bit unorganized due to the original guy organizing it having to bail and others having to take over his job. But all and all it was a good day out.. I'm lookin at organizin another one soon any suggestions on destinations everyone would like to go too

    • 1. I can't see a location on your profile but you do mention GBP so I'll assume you are in UK. In Australia, CBC make a timing belt kit with the gears and idler and tension bearing and that is what I use without any problems. I'm sure OEM or HKS are also fine but I wouldn't pay extra for HKS over anything else. 2. Yes, I would always change the idler and tensioner and the stud and bolt that hold them in. Assuming they were all done last time it is highly unlikely you would have a problem, but they are very cheap to add to the job considering the time it will take anyway.  3. No, you don't need to lock them as such (I think that is more for engines without timing marks), but you should make sure they move as little as possible once the belt is off as you can hit pistons on valves if they move too far. As always, make sure you line it all up to top dead centre with the timing marks aligned before you take the old belt off.

    • Hey everyone,   I’m looking for some advice on replacing the timing belt on my RB25DET Neo-powered 1998 Skyline. The engine was fully built about five years ago, including a fresh timing belt, water pump, and other essentials. However, since then, the car has only covered around 2,000–3,000 miles. It’s currently making around 650hp.   Even though the mileage is low, I know timing belts have a time-based lifespan too, and most recommendations suggest changing them every five to six years or 50,000 miles. Since I’m at that time mark, I’d rather not take any risks and plan to swap it out soon.   A few things I’d like to hear opinions on: 1. What’s the best belt for this setup? Should I go with an OEM Nissan belt, or is the HKS fine-tune a better choice given the power level? 2. Would you bother replacing the idler pulley and tensioner at the same time, or only if they show wear? 3. When swapping the belt, is it necessary to lock the cam and crank gears in place, or is lining up the timing marks enough? I’ve seen different approaches, and I want to make sure I do it right.   The water pump was changed with the rebuild and isn’t run off the timing belt, so I don’t see a need to replace it again. I just want to make sure I approach this the right way.   Any insight would be much appreciated. Thanks!
