Well, that was the best cruise I have been on in ages.

Well done Matt (Whatsisname) for organising it.Great

turnout, good to see so many GTRs,GTSts, & other imports

out for a good time.My R34 got a real flogging- just loved

that cool air.Whole cruise was sensational, especially the

drags through the centre of the city b4 rundle st on the way

home.

R33 is all ready to go for street drags tonight,so if all goes well

I just might finally break into the nines.Mainly just want to

practice & get the car right for the F,S&R Nationals next weekend.

Cheeky - my ears are still ringing from that burnout you did on

Victoria square.

See you all soon.:D

:lol: I see I'm not the only one jumpin' straight on the forum to see what everyone else thought :D

Thanks John :) The Southern Expressway run was awesome mate :)

I really never expected that many would turn up! Hopefully everyone else enjoyed themselves!? I sure didn't make it easy for everyone to know what was going on :P Slightly past "fashionably" late & forgot the 20 cruise maps I had actually made!

HEY.....at least it didn't rain this time!

Wish I could make it out to AIR for the SM :P Keep me informed of your progess John! Hope you finally crack that 9 mate :uh-huh:

Yeah that was certainly one of the best cruises I have been on. Great turnout and you boys present were on fire .... loved those roundabouts along the seafront chasing Matt (Whasisname) and Henry (Brute) with MattR right up my clackers .... oh those slippery roundabouts :)

The town runs certainly were a highlight! .... 6 very nicely modified cars in a tight pack ripping up the bitumen at every set of lights :wave: .... I couldn't believe my eyes when I looked a bit closer in the 'Cheeky' mobile to see a chick! Nice work from all present .... and if you weren't present why the hell not????

And Matt and John, your Southern expressway shenanigans were unbelievable, as usual! Feel the power!

How'd the pics turn out mate? Nice work by the way! Full tilt driving & taking the happy snaps :uh-huh:

That slightly unexpected moment (rear stepping out going uphill) on the Esplanade was interesting :eek: I think a bit of sand across the road was to blame!?

The QLD rego'd 32 GT-R (minus rear spoiler), is the owner a forum member? That's a quick car!

Nice car CHEEKY.

Forgot to mention earlier - A big thanks to Henry (BRUTE) & wife for leading the way from Moana back toward town, I wasn't 100% on which turns to make. Nice drivin' Henry!

well what a night sensational ;)

great effort for everyone that turned up

awesome to see so many quality cars together and no one getting busted.

was a pleasure to lead the pack Matt, good espy run along the beach would have been a good

sight Holden Ute chased by a pack of Skyline's, wicked :)

cant wait for the next one :P

Matt,

You didn't miss too much after you headed home anyway, just a couple of good bits :)

Adrian,

Yeah sorry mate :) Didn't realise I'd left the mob' in the centre console until just before we headed off!

jojo,

It's not much fun being a passenger with Matt anyway, he drives like my nanna (& she's dead) :)

hey ya..

yeah that cruise rocked.

What do you mean your ears are still ringing john?

I wanted to race you other guys to see how much power my car lacked but i dont think you guys like the idea of racing a girl! :mad:

We have to have more regular cruises me thinks.

Erica,

      Another little story of weird shit happening

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I'm thinking that this is such a small part of the problem that you could easily forego the vac pump and just achieve 90% of what you need, which is keeping the gate open when off boost. It's not as if there are not already techniques to keep a gate fully closed under boost. After all, you have boost. Just use a wastegate actuator that will allow you to apply the boost on the appropriate side, just like every external gate out there.

      Heres another fitment photo. redrilled the pattern to 5x112, and threw my audi´s rims on. had to touch the upper control arms with grinder, because the "sharp corner" was sticking about 2-3mm on the tire path. i have the "fender lip" mostly cut off, otherwise these (too) would contact with it. 20x9.5 ET25 rear    265/30 20x8.5 ET20 front    255/30 they are temporary, and look too big for the chassis. searching for 19s to it.

      At first I thought these were knock offs....

      Background: my BMW 225i hatchback (rebodied MINI/X1) came with 3x RE003 and 1x Goodyear Asymmetric something. The RE003 roared and slid around, the Goodyear side was quiet and grippy. Definitely my car was thrashed before it got sent to dealers. My brother also got RE003 all round on his old VA WRX STI, I wasn't impressed with them, car was loud so can't comment on noise. Anyway, Hankook stopped making/updating V12 Evo2. So bought S1 Evo3 runflats. Great daily duties tyre and not that harsh ride. Tyre reviews site/youtube rated them as best stopping in the rain and I believe them. Next set, Goodyear Asymmetric 5 non-RFT. It beat PS4 in tests and is like $100 cheaper, so put them on. Great tyre, more grip then S1 Evo3 but a tad noisier as expected, still rocking them. Next set I am looking to go runflats, probably the new Hankook Evo. Although the new Pirelli PZ5 did well in tyrereviews test. Or go Goodyear Asymmetric 6 which was top tyre last year. The V12 Evo2 on my gen5 Liberty GT wagon did great in cold condition (drove to snowy mountains for a day so my husky can feel his ancestor's roots). Super impressive performance for $120 each lol. Never skimp on tyres, brakes, suspension. There's old pics of my R31's crappy random brake pads bending in the caliper at Oran Park track day somewhere around here. Anyway, my 2 cents.
