Thanks Wayne for once again organising an awesome cruise :P Cant wait till the next one!

Turnout was awesome and weather held up reasonably well!

Sure Cas will post up some pics that we took throughout the cruise including JamesK in a sexy pose... LOL

Thanks Wayne for organising a great cruise, and for what must have taken quite a while to write the cruise notes, which were a godsend to some of us who got cut off due to traffic lights at the start. Fantastic to meet some SAUers IRL for the 1st time. Sorry for those names I can't remember, but think I met Leon who was driving the lead car with Wayne as shotgun? And Justin/Jason can't remember who was driving - dudes were you holding back intentionally? I know even an N/A can go faster than that :P

All in all, a decent day with the weather holding up. It was quite awesome to drive through the burnt out pillars of the trees in some areas and see the tiny new green leaves sprouting out again. The runs through the twisties were pretty good. Those narrow mountain roads with the sheer cliffs falling off mm beyond the white lines really made you focus on driving :happy: Did you guys see the roo on the left when we were flying? I nearly shat myself when it looked like it was about to cross the road in front of me.

Didn't realise we were actually going to climb Hanging Rock, but I desperately needed the exercise. Think I lost a few kgs :P

My car got leaner too... -50kg fuel, -20kg subwoofer, -100g adjustable section of rear spoiler :blush: Thank god didn't damage anyone else's ride.

Thanks AJ for the fast pics. Good shot of the roo! Will upload some of my pics when I get a chance. Looking forward to video footage from AJ and James.

thanx again for a great day wayno.... merowyn and i had a blast as usual :P

the weather held up nicely for us today... which was a blessing!

cant wait for the next one... is that mine or do we have something else before then?

and james.... i can see you lurking.... TURN YOUR RAINBOW LIGHTS ON!

Remember how i told you that i flicked the rainbow switch on ?? :happy:

He was driving back from BP with them on!!! hahahaha

Another VERY WELL executed cruise by Wayne, thanks mate; the time and effort is greatly appreciated :P

Awesome roads, good company and some nice mountain views, with a little exercise to stretch those legs, after a long drive, what more could on ask for.

I thoroughly enjoyed myself and so did all other people i was talking to.

Thanks to those with the cameras, those pics are looking great, keep them coming!

Thanks Wayne for organising another great cruise, the car needed a bit of workout and it sure got it!

Had to check that the roadkill didnt tear the exhaust off the car, sounded like it bloody did when it happened! Oh well no real damage, just need to clean the excrement off the front bar :P

I wouldnt mind 'hearing' some of that footage AJ :happy: Nothing better than cruising with the windows down listening to RB radio.....

I was infront if him for a bit too and all it probably shows is my boat understeering onto the other side of the road :P

You think that was bad...i ended up on the other side of the road shaking like a leaf more than once lol

    • They see me rollin' they hatin'....... Took me most of the day to make the necessary mods to the mounts to make them fit the car.  Fortunately I was able to just use the mounts that came with the rotisserie. The rear ones are really secure, the front I feel i might reinforce a bit more as it doesn't seem like enough attachment to the vehicle. I'm sure it's fine but better to be safe than (extremely...) sorry.  I drilled and tapped thread into additional M12 holes to each car mount where it attaches to the rotisserie as an extra fail-safe. Without them the side to side movement is just restricted by the allen head pinch bolts, nothing actually goes though the beam. Does now! I still need to adjust the rotisserie to get the car centred in terms of centre of gravity. If it's too high or too low relative to the rotational centre line of the car, it will be like a turtle and roll onto its back or as it currently sits, I dont think I'd be able to rotate it as it sits as it needs to lift the whole car up as it rotates. Ain't happening... I'm going to be nervous as hell the first time I go to spin it on its side...    
    • Oh yes done this when the window started flopping around.  Turns out the guides that run along the rail chanel had crumbed way. Took off the door card and pulled out the window mech, then the window, which you have to pull out through the top. As said unbolt the guide rail and don't spend 30 minutes getting frustrated trying to find a way to slide it out upwards cause that don't frigging work. Drop it down and out through the door hole. All I did to repair it was slice some 10mm clear plastic tube, vertically, then screw it to the guide rail both sides. This tubing rolls inward on both sides and leaves a gap wide enough to hold the window. To finish all I did was lube the plastic tube with olive oil and Bob's your uncle . . . well if he has the operation he can be your Aunt ! !  10 bucks in plastic tube and another 5 minute job done again . . . . YEH BULLSH#T ! My love for Skylines knows no bounds !
    • So was there a solution to this problem? I’m having this issue now. 
    • not expensive, just irreplaceable if you don't go sub 60 at wakie in that thing people will start talking
    • I haven't replaced that, but I have had the doors apart on the r32 a couple of times The door skin will be held on by a combination of clips and bolts, just take it slowly and make sure all the sneaky hidden bolts are out Once the skin is off you should be able to pop that piece off pretty easily, looks like there are only 2 bolts holding it on
