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.

    • It’s not driver training though, it’s just an online questionnaire and $65 
    • Almost certainly no. In Vic they have this crazily restrictive set of rules for mods that is usually interpreted as "no more than 2 modifications to the intake system". And they're not real hot on upgraded turbos at all, let alone high mounts. That means if you fit a bigger (particularly front mount) intercooler (which is, of course, almost impossible to go without) then you're already down to one other mod allowed. You'll really benefit from hearing from someone from Vic who knows the real state of play. Even better, speak to an automotive mods certifying engineer from Vic. You can actually read the rules from the govco websites yourself, too.
    • Well, I'm not clicking on a link to f**king bookface (never have, never will), so I can't really know what the complaint here is about, but.... There's nothing particularly wrong with forcing people to have a higher license category to drive super/hypercars. Note that the laws are not about modified cars - only listed standard cars, because there are not supposed to be cars modified enough to meet the law's category limits anyway. If you have a modified car that falls into those power limits you're already in trouble anyway. What is wrong is the bullshit on-line "test" to get the upgrade, instead of any actual work and training.
    • Meh Don't have Facebook anymore but watched a YouTube about it, they also talked about them not being able to use and "sports" modes, not really sure how they would enforce that apart from logging the Db for the cars that have exhaust valve activation in sports mode Apart from all the high end sports cars and supercars that make the sort of power they are talking about standard, I cannot see it bothering anyone else, unless of course road side tests now include having a dyno and scales on site to test the power output vs weight What is it? 500hp per ton? And if the only additional cost is $60 or so, as the video stated, I cannot see that being a war stopper for the people that outlay a few hundred thousand dollars on a performance car In fact, I see it would be a ego boost for some, because they have a "special" drivers licence for a "special"person with a "special" car And if I did have a modified car that made over the limit, there's no way in hell I would apply for a "special" licence, I could see the authorities checking your licence against your rego, so if old mate applied for a licence, but owns a, say, R33 Skyline, that may trigger an inspection of said car as to why, and how, that old mate has a R33 that would fit the bill of making over 500hp per ton Again, meh, not something I believe will be a real issue to 99.9% of people
