It's looking very good...

That avenue will be looking pretty nice in a few weeks when the trees start to change colour.

Hehe Dirty Car eh? Well Mick, we'd like to think that you fellahs from the Central Coast, from the ACT and even poss TAS will not suffer from judging just because you've had to travel long distances. Thanks in advance for your support tho'. It doesn't go unnoticed!!!

We'd also like to think that the signature at the bottom of each formal award certificate gives the owner some cred should/when he ever sells his car. And should you sell that car, you might not want to hand over the award certificate with it!!!

Updated long-term weather forecast looks like we will just miss out on the rain that will hit during that week. :P

Only 14 days to go... See you all at the Penrith Regatta Centre. This is shaping up to be a huge event.

Good News!

moneypit is IN (earlier post) R34 GT-R = Group#1 :P

Turbo Piston is IN (earlier post) disguised in an R34 = Group#2 :banana:

Delta Force is IN R34 GT-T = Group#2 :banana:

FloydWestwood is IN with his lovely black R33 GTS-T = Group#3 :banana:

TaKz is IN with another great R33 GTS-T = Group#3 :banana:

This spot is very nice!

Here is a pic I took of my car around the same time, last year:

Nice Pic Dave. It will look awesome with all the R34s (and the rest) lined up along there.

Everyone should bring their cameras :P What we might do is set up a flickr group photo pool that everyone can submit to after the event, to keep all the awesome photos in one spot so that everyone can access them (obviously HPI will be doing their own photos as well).

Guys if you haven't yet checked it out, the final Awards Categories that apply for the event are posted in a separate "Awards Categories" thread. Prizes will be given out to the winners as well as some great certificates that are to be signed by our 90s hero Mark Skaife (what ever happened to that bloke after winning the series in an R32 GT-R??) :P

Well the last 3 paragraphs of CARS GUIDE Cover Story to-day cover the 10th Anniversary of the R34 GT-R Cruise and Beyond Blue as the beneficiary.

The start point is at Penrith (not P'matta).

Cool...

Skylines Australia is the make-up up the 4th last paragraph.

Cool...

after much co-ersion from raf and shehan i will be attending this day in my lowly R33 GTSt and having a good old time and a nice big drool over all the pretty liners that will be turning up lolz.....

You might feel Dan that your R33 GTS-T is no comparison to the R34 GT-R. "Lowly" ain't the word hehe.

40 years ago, I felt the same as my new Datsun 1600 got passed by a Phase 3 GTHO.

But at least the experience whet my appetite > I put on a decent side-draught WEBER carbie + wide chromies with Kleber rubber > Used self-hypnosis to believe I had an XU-1 and beat that S.O.B. HO around some twisties > then Brockie did it next! :D

It'll be good to see you Daniel in Group #3 :stupid:

went to mt wilson with terry and shehan today...things are looking good at the moment

hope you guys are as excited as we are!!

Just a note to everyone that there is no food provided at regatta centre, so please come with some snacks and drinks for the cruise. There are two cafe's near our destination but to avoid a long queue (its only a small cottage cafe) you can always pick stuff up from service stations on your way to the regatta.

I expect Autobarn to be sold out of Meguiars and Autoglym products as a result of you all rushing to shine your babies up!!

    • Hey guys. I have a 400R on its way to Australia from Japan currently and have a few questions I’m hoping others may be able to help with.   Wondering if anyone here has had any luck getting the Sat nav unit to work in Australia!? Assuming the Stereo is as simple as a band expanded and tv won’t work?  Seeing as they’re based off a Q50 which is Aus delivered is there any way to link that system to the nav? Nav modules and head unit are different part numbers and appear slightly different at the rear with plug ins etc. can I put my xtrail sd card into the rv37 and will that convert the maps or update to Australian? Has anyone got any advice here?     also has anyone fitted the factory remote start and Security system once it’s landed in Australia? I put an enquirey to Nissan Japan in via a third party, and they suggested it needs a Nissan Japan dealers device to setup and couldn’t guarantee if one here could do it or not. They can supply and I can physically fit it but to setup I would need a dealers device. Any information here would be appreciated also. I’ve seen one here with it fitted already prior to leaving Japan at a dealer/inporter, so clearly passes compliance and works when fitted Japan and doesn’t need changing here.      also, does the tyre inflation sensors work here? Does anything change with them when the vehicle arrives? Where are they actually situated? I’ve read they have batteries and they need to changing at times and seems like resetting involves the nav system?    any help here would be appreciated and any other aust specific information to help would be great. Looking forward to see what the current generation skyline is like and eager to see how many of the gadgets can be utilised here.  Thanks in advance 
    • Do need to take it with a pinch of salt. One of the adapter failures, they clearly had setup issues with the flywheel.  One of the slipping ones I spoke to and it was pretty clear the throwout was riding, rather than fix, just swapped to a new clutch.    These clutches are being put in anything from 5k offroad 4x4 beaters, GR yaris, 500hp commodores to 1200hp barra monsters. Bound to be some issues in some of them when they are not a simple bolt in affair due to the changes in height.    There is a lot going on in this picture and unless I did the job myself no way to tell what really happened. 
    • I did this mod in 2019  You just have to modify the top bracket of the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU so it sits more upright and closer to the back seat and run a good quality positive battery lead from the engine bay, the negative lead i just bolted down to the body in the boot.
    • Damn... Not the feedback I want to hear.
    • Twas your car many moons ago that gave me the idea!
