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 ? .....

are they the only good ones you got? all i heard was you camera going spazo at everything.

somthing like this

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

"hey snow *click click click*"

"man i love hamish's car *click click click* ..... *fap fap fap* ... *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.....

    • Hey guys been looking everywhere to try and find the correct gtr hood latch support part number but only found the first half and when I search with that number it sends me to an r34. The first part I found was 62515. If anyone could help me with the rest then I’d really appreciate it. Or if there’s some alternative hood latch support that would work even better cause I can’t find any for sale. (Searched on upgarage, partsouq,buyee,rhdjapan) 
    • If you've only done the upper control arms on the rear, AND you have changed their length (by more than about 1mm) to set the camber you want, then you will definitely need/want to install traction arms also. Adjusting the camber arms on their own WILL introduce bump steer and make the car unpleasant to drive. Most owners have no idea that their car could behave infinitely better than what they put up with. I'm not entirely sure what the Stageas need, but I am thinking that unless you have massive front spring rates and pretty soft rear springs, you have waaaay too much rear bar. Oversteer city, in my estimation. Combined with possible excessive bump steer from maladjusted arms, that could be a recipe for nastiness. ATR43SS2 is not a highflow. It is an outright replacement turbo. It's a little bit bigger than the largest highflow profile that Tao does. Probably a solid 300rwkW turbo where the bigger highflows will be about 30-40rwkW less. Nevertheless, we're only talking about ~300 rwkW, which is well within the abilities of the stock ECu to run with a Nistune on board. I would do so without hesitation - and I will be doing so when I get my finger out and actually get the injectors and AFM installed. But, if you would prefer to drop a whole lot more money on the ECU side, then I suspect you're looking at Haltech. The Haltech fanbois here will all spout on about all the available engine protection you can have, that you can't have with the Nistune option. And they're right. But it doesn't really come for free either. You will spend more money on extra sensors and the like, plus the work to install them. If the engine was built and therefore represented a big investment to protect, then I'd say definitely do it. If you view the current (and forever into the future) shortage of replacement engines as something to prompt similar protection, then also, do it. If you see a destroyed RB25 as an opportunity to put in a Mercedes or other V12 (like I kinda do)... then your perception of the risk/reward might differ. These are good injectors. You can also get a "better" set of the same with more flow matching, for more $$. 1000cc is where you will want to be. You will need an R35 AFM and adapter tube if you want to stay with Nistuned stock ECU. Otherwise, if going Haltech, you can ignore. As for intercooler. Just about anything will do. You're only talking about ~300rwkW. Just put a big core in there. Be aware that return flows do add significant pressure drop and will cost power and will make the turbo work harder to achieve the same goals. If you can manage a proper crossflow, do it. I'm keeping my very good return flow because I'm only expecting to be in the ~250rwkW range, and will live with whatever outcome I get.
    • I have a heap that i have collected if you want some authentic ones still. Pm me if your interested!
