Yah cruise is still going ahead, unless a cyclone whips up in the next hour.

I wanted to come but it's my missus birthday and we have plans.I'll come to the meet point though to say hi. This would have ben my first sau event.

Bummer mate, still we will have more events coming soon. There is a happylaps at QR at the end of the month, always a good way to learn about your car.

Well what can I say?

A fantastic day with a fantastic group of people! :)

To those I hadn't met previously, it was great to meet you all today and I hope to see at upcoming events.

Thanks goes to Cadmoon for organinsing the cruise and booking the pub for lunch. It was good to see 34 people at the pub for lunch. Great effort all! Thanks to the Toowoomba crowd for coming out to great and eat with the likes of us from Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast. Besides our little run in with the Peugeot coming into Esk, I am impressed with the way everyone represented the club today with such good behavior.

If the upcoming cruises are going to be anything like today's, I can't wait for them!

I hope to scenic way home from Esk enjoyable. :)


Brett, where did you disappear to mate?

I had some nasty noises coming from the lower ball joints on the car and only really noticed how bad they actually were once I was moving it about in the car park at the planetarium. Seems they gave up the ghost at Norwell when I noticed the noise first but of course only got worse since. I decided it was probably not the best idea to drive it to Toowoomba after all. Street Sprints at QR tomorrow are now out also.

I'll keep an eye out for the Happy Laps at the end of the month, it'll be fixed by then and I'll come to that.

Guys, must say, it was an excellent day out! Loved every bit - except the STL by a certain someone...

Huge thanks go out to all you guys for behaving and driving responsibly. There was that issue with the Peugeot but these things happen.

Massive thanks to Mike for organising an awesome day out and to Chris as well for rallying the Toowoomba troops.

The steak was HUGE and really nicely done.

Chantalle and Tyler really enjoyed themselves as well. Overall, was really worth the painful back.

34 people at lunch?! That's huge!

Highlight of the day was driving through Toowoomba and seeing the expression on people's faces. "WTF is a Maxima doing there?" :P

Thanks to everyone for making this a great day!

Definitely look forward to the next one. Sunny coast or Gold coast maybe? Head down on a Friday night, book a hotel and come back Saturday after lunch. ;)

I agree a very enjoyable day out, even if it did use 40L of fuel. Thanks to everyone who came out and made it such a good day. If you guys don't mind giving us some feedback on what you did and didn't like and anything you could change or suggestions you have that would be great. We are doing this for you after all :thumbsup:

We are looking as possibly having some overnight cruises and events depending on the level if interest we get.

Also sadly we can't force people to come otherwise there would have been several 100 skylines ;)

    • I have a radium fuel rail on my Greddy manifold and used the supplied radium fuel injector to manifold adapters (The round green things pictured). I did always wonder if you could just go ahead and use the second lower hole like you're doing... Wouldn't thicker o-rings solve your issue?    
    • From what I've seen and experienced first hand with those powder extinguishers, they're good to use to break a window and escape the car, and half the time then do f**k all to stop a fire. You just need much more than 1KG worth of powder. Not to mention, half the time it's an engine bay fire, and you can't easily, and do not want to completely open the bonnet, so you're left pretending to be an American Infantry... Spray and Pray baby!   And then 100% that shit is really destructive afterwards!   Realistically, those little ones at a race track might help you keep the fire from growing and give the fire marshal / truck a chance to actually get to you with their multiple large bottles.   For a road car, these days, prepare to deboard as quickly as humanly possible, and move to safety. Allow insurance to fix replace it (unless it's like a rare classic etc, then do nearly everything possible to save it!) Keep the little extinguisher with you to help protect other things around you from burning while you stand there singing "How can we sleep while our beds are burning?"   Secondly, powder extinguishers I freaking hate for indoor use, (this isn't really relevant to a car) as you will get a powder fog around you, and it can be disorientating.   When I did fire training when at BlueScope Steel, they have (had?) their own fire brigade on site. We did all the training, and at the end we were told, "If it's an indoor fire, and you need to use a powder extinguisher, we as the fire brigade would rather you just exit the building, you're more likely to get lost in the smoke and powder fog than do much help, so just GTFO" And pretty much that was what they said for most other fires too, grab extinguisher, if it's much more than paper in a bin fire, use extinguisher to get you and others out of the building to safety...   Part of me wishes when my Skyline caught alight many moons ago, I let insurance sort it out, instead of putting the fire out... part of me now says "But I've saved a classic before it was a classic!"
    • Hi all,  I have a older model of the Greddy Front facing intake on an RB25DET NEO Head. I've bought aeroflows fuel rail and injector kit (1000cc Bosche injectors) and I'm unsure if the fitment is correct. The injector o-rings fit in the intake hole but it's not snug. I can very easily rotate the injectors even when the fuel rail is mounted. The kit also came with multiple adaptors, they dont make it any more snug and using them raises the injectors up and i cant mount the fuel rail. I hope this makes sense I've asses a few photos.    Thanks so much guys. 
    • So, to run the 4g aerials to the booster, I had to get access to the rear bulkhead....bit of a mission. Hot tip, don't offer to help change the rear shocks for a mate with a v37.... Remove seat base, 2 clips that slide forward to release it the it lifts straight out Fold down rear seat (pull in from boot) The side bolster of the rear seat is not connected to the middle parts that fold. To remove unbolt at the bottom bolt then push it up off the top hook Then there is a plastic surround behind the seat back, 2 pop out clips, 2 bastard clips, some swearing at it is out Pop the rear seat latch surround off Remove door surround lower trim then side trim  Remove c pillar trim - 4 clips, pull inwards not forwards Remove metal brace - 5 bolts 1 nut Then you have got to the rear strut top...what a pain!
