Cheers for the drive guys; was my first SAU run. Was good to split the amazing GTRs up with my big blue boat (Stag). Mac Pass had a bit traffic but was good fun.

If anyone mistook the boat for something prettier and snagged a photo please let me know. Cheers.

Good drive up macquarie pass
Traffic slowed us down

Yes we got held up heaps, but as we went around bend before overtake lane the people holding us up had floored it around apex. I was staying back 100m so at least I could do more than 10km/h around bend (yes that slow), and by time I got to corner they were gone. I expect they where holding us up on purpose giving the fact they took off to make sure we were helped up for next section....

R33 gtr but not nismo. I was behind a r34 4 door and in front of a silvia. Ive been behind a coach before that was faster. Best time was when I was working in Wollongong and went during the week during the day. I got some good shots as it was empty.

I stayed with the 2 lead cars the nismo 33gtr and r34gtr
Thought there was going to be a touge match as they were going side to side to warm up there tyres but a damn white hiace was in front

    • Update 2: Today I'm f**king pissed. Some of you probably saw my thread that I opened shortly after joining this forum, "urgently need expert/experienced opinion", in which I discussed the possibility of a porous RB26 engine block which I also found hard to believe. Currently both turbos are out since the shitty braided line that was installed by whoever fitted the GT28 turbos leaked oil onto the exhaust. Today while working on the cam covers to put new gaskets and half moons in, I cleaned the side of the engine block with brake cleaner. Some time later I saw that it was still glistening with oil or coolant so I dried that off. But it was wet again shortly after. Verdict: I'm royally screwed. What you can see here (hopefully, despite shit resolution), circled in red, is a crack above the turbo oil feed. Extent is a few cm long and basically goes from #3 cylinder wall to #4 cylinder wall. It slowly lets coolant through, even without any pressure behind it. I am absolutely dumbfounded as to how this crack even formed, especially since it isn't along the cylinder as it usually is but rather a horizontal crack. Probably a few cm in length. Not sure on how to deal with this issue right now. Most likely, the only true fix is a new engine block, and even a relatively well done temporary fix requires at least a full engine teardown. Neither of those really fit my timetable right now, the car has been in my buddy's garage long enough as it is. I'm open to suggestions, but I'll be looking into ordering a new 05U block soon so I have one ready for the coming year, or whenever the current block inevitably fails fully. (Most likely once the crack reaches one of the frost plugs) I think it'd be a waste of money and time to rebuild the engine with this block. Oh and I found a rust hole on the side pocket of the trunk, which someone covered up with sealant goop, a piece of number plate and bodywork filler. Fun times. So far for every issue we fix we just find a new one that is arguably worse.
    • I have not found this no. I put one back on a couple days ago with no drama. I agree they are tight, but no need to remove anything. 
    • That is gates blue racing belt
    • Anyone found gates blue racing to be extremely tight/ almost impossible to install without moving the exhaust gear
