Sorry I couldn't continue for most of the cruise, but newborns tend to limit free time! Glad I was there to meet and greet peeps, and give the V's some representation! Definitely getting my day pass f

Great day guys. Matt, you finally brought the beast down! Terry it's your turn next.

I just realised why so many SAU followers aren't coming... I think they're waiting on the stickers Terry???

Hahaha

533 RYC; PKE11Y and GTR034 - went on a back of pack solo cruise. Pushed hard to catch (whilst observing all requisite [not required] road laws) and could make out Matt's tail lights on the horizon lol. It was a bit like exit pit lane from the railway tracks lol. Fun though and thanks 533 RYC for letting us cut in at the rail tracks.

Had a great time out guys.

Nice to catch up again and got a new place to add to the map lol.

Yes agree fast paced today.

Few people got left back.

Maybe should invest in some walky-talkies/cb radios for next cruise.

Will be looking forward to the next event :)

Too eletis for me these days, was not worth the two hour drive to get to the servos.

Used to be very friendly and fun.

Won't bother waisting my petty on a race, err cruise again.

I don't know what happened, but I never got an impression of elitism.

I've been cruising for eleven years with sau,up till now never mattered what you had

But today I noticed how things have changed, as I said before people know where you come

From and treat you accordingly, they can find a car wash to wash there car next time. :-)

There were spots where people went a little quick, but we are all in performance cars. Regardless of law's, this is the type of car owner you are associating with. If you are uncomfortable with the speeds others are doing, Don't do it. I was certainly not the fastest around (You and I are in the same car), I only drove to what I was comfortable doing.

Sorry you felt you couldn't do the same.

P.S. this wasn't SAU, if it were, many wouldn't have been doing what they were doing.

A good day out today, thanks to James for organising the event.

I apologise (to the extent to which I'm responsible, anyway), for the pace early on. It was apparent to me that there was a miscommunication regarding who was actually leading the group (Terry or myself) and after Terry pulled over at Glenbrook and most of the group appeared to follow him off (and after calling to confirm that Terry was under the impression / had been told he was leading) I decided to take off and have a bit of the road to myself, because at least I know this corner of the earth. I wasn't expecting everyone to be following me from Glenbrook onwards. Up until that point on the M4 I was doing at or below the limit to ensure everyone was nice and close.

*Anyway*. With regard to the rest of the day's pace, to be fair, we covered 280 kilometres all up. This also included no fewer than six waypoints / destinations along the way. Think about that! From Rhodes, to the twin servos, to Echo Point (three sisters, where there was no way we could park 20 cars in the vicinity) to Govett's Leap Road, Govett's Leap lookout, Megalong Valley tea rooms, to Bell via Mount Vic and then via Windsor Road to Victoria Road and finally RibTerranean. All in all, besides great food, cars and company, we also took in some amazing roads and were utterly spoiled by the weather. These roads included Cliff Drive from Leura to Echo Point then back to the highway; Govett's Leap road and lookout at Blackheath (with a simply amazing view over the Blue Mountains), Megalong Valley Road (despite some sharpish dips / undulations, an utterly incredible drive anyone who did it would agree); to Darling Causeway and Bells Line of Road through Bilpin and down past the lookouts at Bellbird Hill. Finally (for those who could make it), great food and service at RibTerranean Balmain.

Taking all that into account, I don't think anyone who did the whole thing could really rate the event as anything but a brilliant day out and above expectations for a club cruise.

Please bear in mind I was not an organiser of this cruise and was just along for the ride like the rest of you!

Edit: Great job on the pics so far guys, keep them coming.

Was also great to meet old faces and new - Pete, SammyD, Travis, Raj

      By thomasLait · Posted

      Hey guys I have a 2001 Nissan stagea vq25det, I don't have any engine lights and not really any issues running but I was curious to see if I could use my obd II scanner to find anything that was hidden and I plugged my scanner in and it just said "Low voltage cannot scan" does anyone know how to fix this or what this could be?

      So, no videos, but, the FAB9 Elite manifold and 68mm Bosch throttle bodies are in stock, but, not the rear part of the air box The FAB9 rear airbox thingie is made with a 3" intake pipe, to suit the 3" intake pipe size of a 68mm throttle body  When they get some more in stock is currently unknown as I'm waiting for FAB9 to reply with a ETA on resupply, my assumption is they outsource their plastic printing stuff to "china", and with the current "tariff war" going on in 'Merica it could be on hold for an undisclosed time Should I pull the pin on the Intake and throttle body, and wait for the airbox?????, that's what I'm thinking... 1. Would the standard 2.75" OEM intake on the air box really be that much of a restriction compared to the 3" naturally aspirated?????? 2. If I don't get the 3" FAB9 airbox fitted at the same time as the intake and throttle body will it need a retune, when/if it eventually turns up?????? As I'm impulsive, to a fault, decisions will be made within....."what's the time now"???....let's say 12 hours......LOL

      For Sale: Restored Black BNR32 GTR (Series 3)

      yeah its just so expensive nowadays and its easy to lose motivation very quickly when you start adding up the costs. I acquired the car from a collector in Melbourne and was lucky to get the opportunity to buy something already completed.  I looked at a proper resto and your paying over 300-400K for a proper one (nut and bolt) so this one to me seemed like a much better option! Car is in private storage and for serious buyers, welcome to come see it/drive it in person (photos don't do it justice).
