Wish I had my car for this! Some nice scenery and views, great roads...We ended up at Lake Mountain because we were held up by some cars passing through town and didn't hear radio chat from the group up in front going to Marysville instead. Oh well I took a nice group photo at the ski resort though to sum up everyone's feeling at the time. LOL :( Thanks to TJ for the ride in his snowmobile and thanks to Wayne for organising and mapping out the cruise.

on the CB to Hamish: "wait for it... take him now, take him NOW!" lol :)

JamesK - "people think i'm asian, but im not really... they just think i look asian" :D

Nice Matt...

Great cruise, had a great time. Thanks again wayne. Even loved the detour to the ski resort. Hope you like the group photo we took while we were up there lol :D

Who was in the Gunmetal 32 (non-GT-R)???... ...I forgot to tell you I saw a few sparks when you bottomed out a couple of times...

Yeah that was me. I felt those sparks mate. I thought the worst was over with after the first one but how wrong was i. lol. Ill have to see about raising my exhuast up i think.

hey Matt, you were in a photo right ? .....

somthing like this

"oh look the black trees have new trees *click click click"

"hey snow *click click click*"

lol the $35 club?

so I checked out my front bumper after the cruise cos it felt a lil loose, and true to form, I've snapped one of the mounts on the fender (not the bumper... huzzah). must've been on one of those dips we hit.

still cant get over how god ur car looks hamish..

i reckon its teh colour

needs more low, and a lot more ducttape holding on the bumper due to ghey parking skills.

Just quickly... ...The dude (I forgot your name, sorry) with the GoPro Camera... ...Can you PM me???... ...I have a quick question before I order one... :)

That's me mate.

We got some good shots through the twisties and as we were coming through lilydale (i think) i managed to get past everyone and get some good shots of everyone.

I'll chop it up after i finish exams, hopefully get some good stuff.

Also Wayne i forgot the name of the place you got your windscreen from, could you PM me or just post it up here... for those who didn't go...there were stones, lots of sone lol, and my windscreen didn't like them, awesome size crack through te glass now, but still a great day.

Can't wait for the next one.

Ashneel - Those photos are great. Your camera actually makes it look like we had cleaned our cars.

Hamish - Apparently my car is not meant to shoot flames out the back says the mechanic. But it happens on FNTF.....

    • I replaced the whole clutch line with the chase bays braided hose, I think it removes that loop, is it the short hose that comes immediately off the slave or is there a drawing in the manual to find what you’re referring to? It was just re-bled when I upgraded to the nismo slave, old slave worked fine but I thought that might help, didn’t change a thing. It’s like the first half of the pedal is pushing air and then when it finally actuates the master the friction zone is tiny. Makes it practically impossible to launch the car
    • Yep, that was one of the things we learned fast in the past with our MX5. When you drive with the top down, you are effectively standing out in the sun, 100% of the time, and not getting in any shade (because roads aren't shaded generally!). Just like standing out in the middle of a field on a sunny 27C day is a bit of a bad plan, so is sitting in a MX5 without sun protection.
    • I also just ordered some Frankenstein bolts and side mounts to fit a hard top Just in case I do find one, basically so it doesn't need to be fixed to the car with only the front latch.......and then gaffa tape to keep it in place for the RTN journey from wherever I get it
    • If your temps are fine now, you probably won't have any issues with where your vents are as they don't look right up at the windscreens high pressure area, so any differences when giving it the beans for extended happy laps would be minimal, but, they should vent heaps when stuck in traffic  Much like how that reverse cowl on my SS let "visible" heat out when stationary, but, because it was basically at the windscreen my coolant temps on the Hwy actually raised because air was being fed into it at speed (110kph), to only come back down to around 90° when I got off the Hwy And your 100% correct about the NC currently not needing vents, but, if I was to add a turbo, and a oil cooler and intercooler in front of the condenserand radiator, and then take it to the track???? It is apparently a recommend requirement if I don't want to worry about coolant or oil temp issues, but, any of the above are possible scenarios, over time As it sits now, with the triple pass radiator and stock air conditioning system, I have absolutely no issues with either temps or air conditioning efficiency, I've been basically daily driving thie car for the last month, both on the Hwy, and peak hour, bumper to bumper traffic, but, that's pretty much expected from basically a standard engine  Talking about no issues daily driving, it was 39° the other day and I was sitting in bumper to bumper traffic on the M5 and then M7, with the top down, and with the air conditioning blowing nice cold air on my feet, balls, and face, well, there was one issue, my head and arms got pretty sun burnt Note to self: leave a hat and sunscreen in the car for such days 🤣
    • I would agree, unless you need something specific to the HV motor/battery side repaired or investigated, any mechanic will be able to perform normal services, but if you prefer, maybe look for a mechanic who regularly services/repairs Nissans, the VQ engines are pretty common in the Nissan lineup.  Sorry, I can't make any suggestions, I don't live in Vic.
