I thinks the new toy 'GTR' is keen for a leg stretch down south. Coming from the northern suburbs also - let me know where to go and I'll do my best to be there too.

It'd be nice to see your machine on the road mate, hope you can make it. :)

As for the Non-Skyline issue, I've never had a problem with the mix of cars, I've found those who primarily use SAU to all be good* people thus far. BUT ultimately it IS up to the organiser as Cubes said.

[*] It's a relative term. :D

Hey Guys,

Long time no post.. I just got back from holidays.. PM me the details.. I might be back on that date.. you never know. I'm pretty sure Busky can't make it either.. he'll be overseas.. I reckon. but anyways.. having a the 200sx in the cruise last time kind of broke up the skyline look but it really didn't matter when it came to lining up at the lights :)

I agree with Joel and Brad. Doesn't matter what import car you drive, as long as you have not just got your license and aren't going to do stupid things to draw attention to the group, the car should be welcome. Of course there are certain minimum performance criteria that need to be met so you don't slow the group down ;)

99% of the cruises i've been on we've had the usual GFXMan, sometimes Jaffa with his awesome sounding VX LS1. :D

I must be missing something... when did it become a skyline only cruise? :P

I was going to bring some guys who've been on our cruises before as well, which include a 180sx and an S15. But if it's a skyline only cruise, no biggie; I'll give it a miss.

Although, you'll be alienating some of the old skool Skylines Downunder / SAU members who've been here along time, and since moved on from having their skylines but chosen to stay involved with this community. But of course, it's up to the cruise organiser :)

Joel, Jaffa will on the market very soon... will be a sad day indeed :(

hey guys!

I am only new to this site, I joined in November 05 so by all means a newby! I have been on 1 cruze so far the 1 at Lyndoch, with my brother as passenger and had a pretty good time! alot of people are making a bit of fuss who can go and what car they should drive. I admit I did start this thread but wouldn't consider myself as an organiser :P

I just want to go on another SAU cruise, enjoying my car and other same-minded ppl around me and get to know some more of you car enthusiasts! I'm not gonna say who can go or who cant, or you have to drive a specific car (within reason). I just want to have a nice day with nice people!

I didn't think this thread would get so many posts :) so thanks to everyone that supports this cruise! I just wanted to see who wants to go on a South Style Cruise! Its good to see alot of interested ppl that want to cruise, I just want to cruise with other skylines because commies just dont keep up :D

Thanks again guys! :(

P.S. If someone wants to change guidlines or whatever about the cruise feel free coz I am only new and dont want to tread on anybody's..............well you know some of you guys have been on here for years and have grown to the site...................

That's what I thought :(

I'd say there are lots of posts, coz lots of people haven't been for a good cruise for a while :)

You've neither cruised with Jaffa, nor the boys from the LS1.com.au forum then :D

Mate, you're organising this cruise, and must be doing something right as so far it's looking like it'll be a well attended one. So don't relinquish the reins just yet...

But I do suggest you relax the car restriction, as i think everyone is sufficiently aware they're accountable for their actions, and those of their friends. And anyone who turns up in their mum's Magna knows they'll get laughed at. :P

Because I'm facetious by nature.

That's right, I didn't, did I?  :P

Weren't you ever told not to get in to cars with strangers? :D

yeah i was but do you think i actually listen

i love talkin to strangers there soooooo cool LOL

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
