I had a deerfarm at Yank, so know the roads thru there very well - did you all go via Delamere Rd into Normanville? If so would have been very fast!! ie left-right-left-right, all xxx+ speeds. Damn, pissed now that I left the Vct harbor beach front carpark at 3.50 & headed home. Dang!

Madaz if Id known you were headed to the Pt Noarlunga 'Castle Park' I would have stayed for longer. Sorry all, missed out on those GREAT roads (yes they are bumpy, but that is half the fun, ie speed, bumps, off camber.... I ride them a LOT on my bike), and pissed at myself for not staying for more photos & small-talk.

Hey, everyone took off & left pretty quick from the foreshore, one minute Im showing Coen the 'superfast race cars', ppl start heading and after putting Coen in the baby seat everyones, like, GONE!! hahaha.

Nah, wife was cranky (Teary when I got home, depression maybe after having our 2nd baby 7 weeks ago?), so I had to be home for 5pm, with chinese food! lol

I'll be in it next Sthn cruise for sure - I know a lot of good roads thru there if you wanna tap into my 'road-racing bike experience' mmwwwhahahahahahahaha! Oi, ppls, dont dish me on that comment, Im serious, Ive done thousands of highspeed kms thru those areas.

will be booking my car in for a service this week it picked up a rattle in fifth gear on the way down. Great Job Adam,

we left Normanville and there was a Black R33 following us ( i don't know who i haven't been here long enough) pulled over at a petrol station and met up with the others from Normanville that left in a different direction.

Still simling from the drive and probably will be all week!

That would have been me, i beeped when went past, was a rather slow return after being stuck behind that truck going down the hill.

Should have taken pics of everyone with their cars again to put names to sau names.

BIG thanks to the organisers although didnt meet madaz. Will be up for any other cruises again hopefully new comp and boost controller working this time as running standard boost.

Yeah i thought it was funny that we got stuck just after every overtaking lane ;) .

Do you live down south (flagstaff hill) area as I think i saw you driving home from work today on flagstaff hill rd, if so where do you get your car serviced?

Brendan thanks for leading us out of Victor we thought you were going to the school until we saw you wave and head off up the road with Adelaide and the big arrow on the sign!

Don't be fooled there is another black 33 with same front bar and GTR wing around Flagie, I thought it was him for a while back too, but wheels are ever so slightly diferent. But i do believe they are both up that way!

Missed cruise beacsue of flat bat due to not driving my toy a lot any more... But burnt down the back way (through strath) to victa at bout 3:30 once we got it charged up. heheheheh. Had my mates drive my car (me driving for the windy stuff) hehheheh.

Cruising victa around 4: 5:30 only saw one blue 32 skyline with p plates up. Then drove the back way home.

Would have like d ot catch up with every one again... Oh well maybe next time.

Some good picks.. DId anyone line up that viper?

It would be good to see a worked line blow 2 tonnes of that thing away!

anyone got video... ill ppay money 4 it dammit . lol

as i said b4 great to meet everyone. and max/chapman u should said sumthing i coulda given u a lift im sure others would have as well.

as for us we went to kfc with tony and his cousin. and when we got back no one was there. bumped into 4biden and he said u guys are at the high school and as we were talking a cop car pulled up. so we left anyways cos we had to be at a friends place by 5pm <_<

The artist formerly known as Oosh here, forgot my SAU pwd, and can't get in to my GMail account atm so I'll be Oosh2 (now with 20% more BS) for the short-term.

Anyways, I had a great day, cheers to the organisers! Andrew, my workmate in the S13 with the shitty grey paint job i dragged along, loved it to. Great introduction to local scene.

Great pics thus far, and I'll put up a couple of my own soon, but i want to bring you to the attention of what i feel is the best Skyline photo I've seen yet, period.

Skippy posted it up, this one: http://image-cache.skylinesaustralia.com/f...-1140351961.jpg

Yeah 'lines in a row, pretty nice, now zoom in on the rear of 4DR R33 near right.

Then what you do is: politely ask for the hi-res version (cheers Erin), give it to your workmate who knows his way around PhotoShop a darn sight better than you do, and you end up with this. :P

Enjoy!

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
