i would love to come and meet/cruze with you guys but  

1) i don't speed for no reason, and  

2) my car wouldn't keep up with all of yours...!

you're welcome to come on any cruise.

I'll keep ya company if ya dun mind cruising along with an older guy :)

as I'm getting older I'm getting more scared than 10 yrs ago...

so I also don't speed for no reason, and mild mods on my car wont keep up with some other beasts out there. stock tyres, stock suspension, stock turbo...

True.

Cruising through GOR, you'd miss a lot of beautiful scenery if you go too fast... kinda the right way to sit back for relaxed cruising, enjoying the scenery, just like when I travelled to Tasmania....

yah but speeding is much more fun.....

Go to the track. Safer with lots of run-off areas in case you overshoot a corner.

boom there is the limiter...oh well...

Get Apexi RSM or PowerFC :-), oh and a matching speedo.

yessss, max knows all about that ey max? :)

Dan got the photos developed but they came out really bad man!!

Blame it on at your work haha. Took it there and their machine stuffed up, had to wait for a while, printed the wrong size and the colour are really dull. The gave me 2 copies though, you can have the other set if you want. But nothing flashy or pro.

Guys the GOR was great fun, but some bit was like a race just to keep up hehe. I guess that is what happy when there is open straight road with 20 odd Skylines haha.

Maybe the next cruise should be a nice relaxing one not too far. Something to show off our cars hehe. Anyone for a Chapel St Cruise haha j/k. 20 cars go in 5 cars come out, the rest CANARY hehe.

The GOR cruise has speed limit of 80-100

Nothing wrong taking a corner at that speed limit if both your car and you are capable to do it. I know my car can't, shocks could be worn, tiny stock rear rubber, I was only doing 40-60 on most tight corners. that's like at least 20kph below the limit.

    • Yep it's an r34. Usually people remove struts without removing the front upper control arm (fuca is what i assume this is?) So not sure why mine wouldn't fit. I know on my other car I did a similar job and it wouldn't fit until I removes the ball joint nut even though I didn't remove it prior.   The upper arm doesn't seem to be in the way (the part that's bolted to the chassis. The part that's bolted onto the j arm I'll check that out though.   I was going to compress the spring and put it in with the compressor attached but not sure if it will work  Haven't seen anyone do it.
    • I have a small lip on the boot of the E90 and I've been toying with the idea of trying to mould it in to the boot to remove the gaps. I guess shaving the seams? No idea what the terminology is here.  What I'm wondering is, if it's current double sided taped down, what would I do to more permanently attach it so it makes a good base for the filler? It only has edges so no way to bolt it down unless I add some braces. I've done a lot of fibre glassing in my time so that's nice and easy but I'm not sure what my options are here.  Sorry, this is the best pic I have and I'm 4 million ks from home ATM.  
    • Based on this comment I went googling. A052's in the sizes I want are certainly not cheap, but I couldn't find anything in the V70A anywhere. How much do they run/where do they get sourced from? From what I know (nothing but internet searches and reviews etc) the R888 has pretty much fallen off from anyone's actual use, and the AO52 is the king of "road legal" rubber. Nobody is driving around on their daily for Z221, AO050, DZ03G. At that point, for purely track only tyres - Why not buy actual slicks? Why does nobody actually do that anyway?
    • This an R34? It shouldn't matter though - it should be the same as on any of the others, and by "any of the others" I mean R32, because that is the car that I have had the front end apart on about 50 times this year. Sometimes, it is much easier to get the lower shock eye onto that pin when: a) you have the upper shock nuts backed off a few turns so you can wiggle it a bit more freely. When they are tight the bottom of the strut is much harder to move that _leeeetle_ bit you might need it to to win the fight. b) you have the outer bolt(s) from the FUCA out and so you can move the lower pin around freely too. Then, all you have to do is put the upper arm back on when you've got the rest back together, and this is where jacking under the balljoint can help.
    • One question before I make a bigger mess potentially, do I need to undo the nut on the outer ball joint?
