what was so bad about it?

of course theres going to be cops!

there is every year.

i thought it was sweet, got to albion park , chilled for a while checking out cars, went to the gong had lunch, watched more nice cars, cruised a lil more. then went home.

what do you expect?

na it was fun considering there was a lil bit of a let down on the organisation side of things and the cops blocking off the entry , leaving half of us outside the airport while inside i never saw a single cop ( accept 1 driving past once.) .. Defect stories i dunno about as i wasnt looking for attention but wat i remember is seeing the best R34 N1 spec gettin some serious backfire and then getting pulled over by the cops . The look on the guys face was priceless. Im sure he was NOT happy to say the least ( no like he was doin anything wrong either :) )

Ya had a day but some aspects were missing , But still to see all them NICE liners :P and other sorts of cars was good enough and fun enough for me :P besides my camera dieing on me just as i was goin to take more pics of some luvly liners :D .

I went to Roselands with a few other mates at about 11ish , but ended up leaving soon after as it was heaps HOT there :) soo many COPS and defects . Took about 20 mins just to leave the bloody car park there was that many cars there . Which once again was a let down to miss out on all but MORE cars that would of come to Albion Park if they could of got in.

Oh well had a nice drive and chat with peeps :P

Will post pics sometime when i get it all sorted

Was a good day. Saw [R32] inside the airport and a few other lines. There wasn't as many cars in there due to the police blockade, Wollongong exits were the same. Saw JETT at the lighthouse carpark. Plenty of GTS-t's, but only saw a handful of GTR's.

Was the R34 GTR that was pulled over a red one, R32?

I was in a black VT SS.

i saw a few gtr's i was cruising with my car ( jett ) and my mates black r32, there a few nice gtr's out there, hope to see some more next time, love the cops pulling over people for defects right in front of the carpark entrance, and the cops on trail bikes giving out defects, just love it.

all in all wasnt to bad, cops blocked off a few streets not letting cars in to the lighthouse carparks, just one major problem is lack of food, aybe next time someone can organise a big BBQ for all the people there. that would be good

The organisers had a BBQ at the truck stop behind the service station on the left just before the entrance to the airport. Pity no one was told about it. Alot of the cars were also parked in there. I also doubt that much money was raised as I didn't see anyone selling any stickers or asking for donations.

There was plenty to eat at the nearby shops (plus a McD's about a km down the road). I think last year was much better in that people could actually see most of the cars at the one spot.

I had an enjoyable day, I expected the amount of police, no surprises there, considering the sheer number of cars, what really did get on my nerves, was the lack of organisation. There was none, it was supposed to be for charity? I went for a walk at the airport and saw nothing that resembled a donation collection or anything? No food or drink? For what was supposed to be an organised arrival point it was crap.

But was good to see some mates, meet some peeps, mostly enjoyable, Ill go next year but ill be prepared, drink and food and a picnic mat wouldnt go astray.

*PS Bizz I didnt get many pics (wtf were u doing with our camera for half an hour? Ya only took one photo! :)) but the ones I took ill host them on my webspace but they are really only of our crew.

I cant believe my FRIGGIN luck!

1 Measly PHOTO! :P hahahah wat was i thinking!. And i took so many nice pictures of cars too , but thanks anyway dave lol , needed that camera :)

I have heaps of ones from the road up to the meetup ill give em to u later and u host them too , few small 1 min clips too of various cars .

That R34 Was red NXTIME.

I got to the airport early and watched the parade of cars roll in and out for hours - great weather, perfect for cruising... Shame about the F**KWITS engaging in grass sports!

Headed into town after coming home and chilling out for a while - eating lunch etc.

Those two cops on road/trail bikes were doing WELL above 40km/h through South Beach back and forward for an hour and riding on the wrong side of the road AND up the footpath straight at pedestrians... Dicks.

Town was a bit of a dud by that stage though :P Had a good day.. :)

Adrian

We drove past you Adrian inside the Airport, I called out to you and you looked around bewildered :) I was incognito in a black VT SS :P You should have filmed the cops on the trail bikes and sent it into the Police Ombudsman :P

Bizz, that Red R34 with buddyclubs is an absolute machine. Big twin turbo set up, apparently.

    • Howdy friends, So another weird one today, I was looking into replacing some broken clips holding the front grille for the R32 GTR (part number 01553-03831), and noticed the brackets which are supposed to hold the grille in place were also missing 😑. I do recall seeing this issue many years ago, but didn't fix it at the time. A quick look on eBay and I was able to find the genuine brackets, along with all the screws which suited the headlights (part numbers 26042-08U05,26092-08U05). Happy days!....  Once they arrived however there was an extra nut in the packaging which implied that there should also be a bolt or a stud, and sure enough, after a bit of searching I found this thread from 2013, and @Ants clearly shows a stud should be present. Reading around a bit more, it's possible the headlights on my car are the "povo pack" headlights as mentioned by @funkymonkey in this thread way back in 2008. This could explain why the studs are missing on my set of headlights. Looking at the headlight diagram I wasn't able to see a suitable part number for the stud itself. The headlight did indeed have a recess that looked like it would accept a stud, but interestingly no thread or anything obvious how the stud would be affixed to the headlight, I suspect it may have been glued in, press fit, or melted into the plastic at the factory. Another member may be able to clarify if they happen to have a genuine set of N1 headlamps. The only thing we have to work with within the recess is a keyway which likely is there to prevent the stud from rotating within the recess. In any case, back to 3D printing, I put together a model which acts like a pug with a friction fit inside this recess, making use of the keyway so it doesn't rotate while tightening a bolt. Printing in TPU will allow it to slightly swell making a nice snug fit without cracking the part. I've designed the adaptor it to accept an 20 mm M6 bolt (stainless with a cap head in my case), as opposed to the standard M5 stud and I made use of the standard galvanised split washer that came with the genuine brackets from Nissan. Once the bolt and screws were all in place, giving the bracket a gentle shake gave the classic "shaking the car" feeling, very solid, which gives me confidence this is going to be able to hold on much better than the janky solution which seems to have been here for the past decade or so. Overall I'm really pleased with how this turned out and maybe there are more people out there running these headlights without a centre stud at all!

    • Hey everyone, This is my first post apart of the introduction. I tried searching a bit on the forum but couldn't really get a straight answer. I got the car to my mechanic as I felt it being weak. It seems that it was missing on two cylinders due to the injectors. I had all my injectors clean and the car runs much better. The mechanic also confirmed my suspicions that the cat is clogged and needs to be tackled asap. The cat rattles a bit and the hot exhaust warning frequently lights up when driving after getting the injectors clean. In my introduction I was asked about what modification I might be interested in and mentioned a cat delete. From what I was told, this is not really beneficial on the RB20DE and there are more cons than pros.  Could perhaps anyone give some suggestions on what the best course of action would be since the current cat is toast and needs to be removed/replaced anyway? I can also sometimes smell a strong smell of fuel, but I'm not sure if this is related.
    • Hope the cans went down well at least 
    • 255 can't go wrong with the price.
    • When I was replacing my pump due to being stranded in the wrong state, I went with the Deatschwerks 320lph kit. It is a direct plug in to the stock wires, harness, everything. It comes with a plug... but you can plug the OEM plug directly into this thing. https://justjap.com/products/deatschwerks-dw300-fuel-pump-nissan-s13-silvia-r32-r33-r34-skyline-c34-stagea?currency=AUD Downside: Won't actually flow that much on boost if you want to push it on E85, but it's comparable to the 040/255 etc. Little more actually.
