Edifier's R34 GT-R VS2 is fine. Small leak at offside front > needs attention - that's all.

Will have it check out first thing tomorrow morning, water temp was ok on my way home. And huge thanks to Terry for escorting me back to Sydney. ;)

Large hail forecast for the Hunter.

Newie ppl under cover!

Sydney ppl are outta there right?

Was lucky to completely avoid the hail - took M1 home and stuck in a huge jam about 5k away from Pacific Highway exit. Turned out that trees fell on M1 due to storm so took some time to clear things out. Killara/Lindfiend area looked like they were hit by a typhoon/cyclone, water and leaves everywhere on the road.

Great drive today, really enjoyed it! Already looking forward to the next cruise.

Home.

Hail came through Syd while I was still on the f3.

Sad to hear about The BB 34 not making it Terry. Good on you for helping out *pat on back*

My back is killing me!

I'm not really that nice a person.

I'd do the same for an enemy.

Gotta know what address I send the bell housing. :P

We left the pub pretty early cos me and the mrs were buggered and we drove through that cyclone. Holy crap. Heaviest rain I've ever been through but thankfully no hail.

Thanks for organising guys

Thanks for organising and for everyone coming along. It was a really nice drive!

Managed to catch the storm coming back to Sydney and I couldn't see anything in front of me. It was pretty much just a giant blur of grey haha.

Was a great event. Bernie and me missed the storm completely. Was lucky.

Got stuck in the jam on the M1 before the Wahroonga turn off for a bit. Other than that all clear.

Hailed in Hornsby but we missed it all.

Same here... Started storming as soon as I got home though, but only for 5 minutes.

Really fun day and perfect introduction into the SAU Sydney scene... definitely what I needed to appreciate my Skyline and hang onto it!

Yes great weather on the way up but terrible traffic and weather on the way back, at least I had a 32 to cruise back with Mark, not sure what your forum name is.

Great day though, will post some pics when there's a wrap up thread.

Great day. Nice to meet some of you. Sorry to hear about the traffic and weather for some on the way back down south. Good turnout and hats off to the royal hotel for getting the meals out in good time considering the number of orders they had. Look forward to seeing some pics and to the next event.

Good cruise!!! Plenty of nice cars to look at. Snapped some photos so will upload a few tomorrow night.

Went back to Sydney via the Putty with Mick which seemed like a good idea at the time. The rain ended up pelting down....plus plenty of tree branches & debris on the road etc. Pretty treacherous conditions, especially with well-worn AD08's...but was still good fun lol.

Also...on the putty a bloke with a horse float almost lost it around a right hander.... and on the m4 there was a Chrysler stuck in the flooded right lane as well as a Toyota with its front end smashed in.

That would be me. And yes it was good to drive back with someone :D

    • 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
