OK I've had enough. This issue has been brought up across a few threads, and it doesn't seem to be going away in any sort of hurry. What sort of vehicles should be allowed to come out on SAU Qld cruises? This has nothing to do with who is on the forums at all, as it clearly states that the forums are open to all motor vehicle enthusiasts. I have nothing against the people who drive these cars, but lets face it, this is a skyline site, and what’s the point of having a “skyline” cruise when other cars outnumber the skylines?

If you turned up to a Holden commodore car club meet in a Barina, or perhaps a turbo astra jumping up and down saying “can I cruise with ya, eh, eh?” would you expect them to welcome you with open arms? I don’t think so. They would probably tell you to f*@k right off. What do the rest of you think? Where do we draw the line? And who gets to decide and enforce this?

Well, you beat me to it! Was going to post the same thread...

I think we should alow a handfull ie no more than 2-3 cars other than skylines to come along... With the following stipulations...

-The person must be an active and known member of the forums. ie no-one off the street.

-Must drive a car deemed to be up to scratch.

-Must be a person everyone is happy to have come along.

I will be happy to be the judge and jury on this issue when it arises, as I would be fair and looking at the greater interests of the group.

I think a secret PM vote should be undertaken before anyone new comes or recieves info for a meet. We have grown alot now and need to keep the same feel with our meets, read as: NO DICKHEADS. If we get too big or have even ONE wanker come along its bad news for the rest of us and we loose what we have built so far...

Agreed?

I agree 100% James...

Nissan Imports are fine in moderation IMHO... EG: Cefiros, 180SX's, Silvias, etc...

But Barinas, Commodores, Lancers etc. are NOT welcome in my mind... By all means come to the meeting spot in your Hyundai, but try and organise a ride in a Skyline rather than tagging along in your POS...

I agree other import nissans are welcome to come

But these other cars tagging along are sorta getting annoying, there are other websites for these guys to goto cruises for any make/model cars.

Heres two websites for you guys

    • I'm not up to date on the latest, but for basic modifications like pod filter, lower springs etc you can get a modification permit at the time of inspection.  For more serious modifications you will need engineering.  Intercoolers used to fall into the mod permit rule but its been a long while since i looked it up.   Either way you will be able to get it registered, just a case of $300 vs $3k . 
    • Hi everyone! I’m the new owner of a 1996 R33 GTS-T, I’ve purchased this car over from Queensland and brought it to Western Australia and I’ve found that there is a hole cut out in the engine bay for the FMIC that enters into the wheel well (fender liners are in the boot). For anyone that has had to get their car over the PITS here, will this be a major issue?   
    • Yeah I've spotted this one too, whenever it's lotto superdraw week and I'm browsing car sales dot com for my new ride They must be dreaming, maybe it's worth 150k for the link to Brock?
    • 100% accurate!  We are a pack of know it alls....  But, I bet people go to you when they have a problem! I've been on a bit of a clean up rampage too over the past month!  I've thrown more shit in the bin over the past 2 weeks than I have in the past 3 years combined! Anyway, it's all good fun being different! My wife sometimes does not agree!  
    • ADHD in all form isn't about "can focus, or can't focus" or is hyper active or isn't etc.   It's all a dysregulation. Either time feels to be stationary, or time just vanishes in a split second. We are either under focussed on the task at hand (as we're over focussed on our surroundings) or we have no idea an atomic bomb went off beside us as we're so hyper focussed and locked in on things.   Not to mention the rapid fire thought process. What it takes a "normal" process to think up a solution to a problem, ADHD will be able to give you 5 different ways to solve the problem, and the pros and cons of each. While we can be highly impulsive and lack the ability to "control ourselves" we can also become paralysed with the inability to make a decision for ourselves. While most of us have an OCD like requirement for perfection, we lack the ability often to remain focussed to get things to a perfect state. Those with undiagnosed ADHD as adults, can often find the last part actually stops them ever attempting to do things that they have the ability to do, as the reasoning is often "if I can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing"   As for projects... Ha ha ha, I still need to take the other half of my wall trim down in the Fiance's office so I can paint it. Need to finish digging and running the back yard drains, my R33, getting the Ninja bike registered (now being sold), the moped project, fixing either of the lawn mowers so they're reliable, along with a myriad of other things.   It's why I've been going through lately and just being brutal and clearing projects off that I won't actually ever complete. IE, moped will go to the tip, or be given away, bike is being sold, Subaru project being sold, some parts for other projects given away. Or I've been making myself focus on one thing at a time, by ticking off the smallest quickest ones first.   There's also a reason by our mid twenties we seem to be "know it alls", as we've all been down some of the weirdest and oddest rabbit holes when you follow the dopamine trail. It's often also why we're more a jack of all trades, but not a master of one.   However, pretty much all of my hobby projects, in one way or another, all come back around to automotive. That's my zen area.
