I'm with you on that one!

is 110 degrees good for a GTR :(

Pays to turn the aircond off going up the range following the hot exhaust of another GTR :D even though the girlfriend would cook my real girlfriend would stay under 90 degrees :lol:

We went home via the same route taken to get there. Stopped up on top of Mt Mee and watched the storms hit down below. Didn't have to touch the wipers all the way home. Put car in garage and it didn't stop raining and hailing for 45 minutes!! I must be lucky I guess. Well done to all and Merry Christmas.

Nice work Special thanks to all those who organised and did there bit.

Those that I can remember

Erin

Andrew

James

Marc

Dirk

Quick note - I wasn't actually involved in organising this cruise. Not having a go or anything mate, I just don't like to take credit for others' work :)

Top job Erin, Andrew, James and all others involved.

Don't you love it when a plan comes together :)

Beau and I had a "leisurely" drive back via Fernvale. Nice roads, but holy crap that was some heavy rain.

I was talking with one of the members from fordlaser.com and he said about 3/4 of them had to stop half way down the mountain due to brake fade.

I told him to buy a skyline and he wouldn't have that problem.

So then he starts with the wisecracks like...what's so massive about 100 Skylines all together, so I say...the difference is, if I wanted to see 100 lasers....all I gotta do is go to the wreckers. He crumbled and ran to his corner, crying like a little girl.

FLAME ON!!!!!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

that and the fact that i counted about 7 lasers in total, and here i was worried we might have been struggling for room in the carpark with 2 cruises going on at once

lol.

I didn't see you stopped .. but that explains why I couldn't catch you after you went past while I was having a smoke break and checking out the storm.. I pushed it down the mountain hoping to catch up, after a while I caught a couple of slower moving cars and thought that somehow you must of overtaken them.

Got the car in the garage at home about 2 mins before it poured, but didn't get any hail and I'm only a couple of k's from you

Excellent day and thanks go out to all involved :P

Yeah thanks Erin and crew for another great day out... I did learn one lesson though: put sunscreen on before arriving at the cruise destination!! - in the hour that we hung around at Aspley I went from human to lobster...

...We cruised back from the dam through Peachester with Sunny weather and minimal cars only had to overtake a couple of 'sunday drivers'.  Sorry to the car Red R33 GTSt behind me as we overtook a sunday driver, I hope my flames didn't scorch your paint work  :(  :P  :P

The flamage show was awesome!... but maybe it was your flames that lobstered my face - my paintwork was unharmed though, so it was well worth it! B)

Thanks for letting me tag along back to the coast... ;)

I didn't take too many photos, but here's one:

    • I like it when the counter chick leads you out the back into the racks and says "have a grub around in here and see if you can find what you need. I'll be back in a few minutes. Just left me in front of a massive motorised shelving system and 2-3 million fasteners, so I could find a peculiar SS shoulder bolt with cap head. Gotta love country towns.
    • I used this https://osgiken.com.au/product/os-giken-os-250r-lsd-gear-oil-80w250-1-litre/   shut my nismo 1.5 pro up by heaps…. Not silent though. Gives the car character and personality. It ain’t a carolla. If you want silent, put a quaife in it.
    • It's about the same time for me from Bunnings, or the Fasteners. My big push away from takeaway food, and gluten in general keeps me away from the Bunnings Snags too! Weather up here, I've been out for two walks today in the beautiful sunshine. Had a few little drizzles, and some wind, that honestly, a tin of beans and I could compete on how harsh she blows Thankfully, being this bit inland, we're not getting anything much really. Will probably pick up a bit more when/if Cyclone Alfie decides to come ashore. A few areas in the GC though, and south into NSW are really getting smashed though! Right now, I'm just annoyed Alfie hasn't hit, as I'm not allowed to crack into the BBQ foods like the bacon and eggs until the Cyclone hits "In case we lose power"...
    • I love fastener joints, the price difference between them and joints like Bunnings or Super Cheap is amazing, and they either have exactly what you want, or they can get it to quick They have even given me some for free when I only needed a couple of specific size In saying this, I have paid premium for fasteners from Bunnings if they have the sizes I need, but only for convenience really, as my local is only 10 minutes away, the Sushi joint near them is also a consideration  How's the weather Matt? Stay safe mate
    • Wideband is worth setting up if only for tuning purposes. I would not mess with the ignition system unless there's a misfire. HKS crank trigger is popular out here for the relatively easily sourced Denso crank sensor, not a bad idea to install as well regardless of power level on a standalone. Boost leak test is worth thinking about. Oil pressure sensor tied to a fuel cut isn't a bad idea either. Getting the tune figured out is a good idea. Without putting eyes on it and getting under it there's no way for us to tell you exactly what it needs but most likely you're down to the last 10% that will make a big, big difference in how happy you are with the car.
