R32 Only Cruise?

Hey Guys, I feel partly responsible for this discussion (post 2). I guess I love to see all types of performance cars. Its the variety that makes it interesting.

With track day I let almost any car come, as my stipulation isn't a car type or model but on the character of the person. If your a nice person come along, if your a tool your not welcome. I guess this is a lot harder to control on an open forum.

Having said that I have nothing against car only / model only events, I was just curious about the sub division within the Skyline community. All us round tail lighters have to stick together I say :D

The WRX guys are the same, they have this great cruise they organise every few months that is Subaru only, they let me come along as they know me through track day etc. and I get a lot of comment/discussion about how interesting it is to see how a GTR runs in comparison.

I have a family these days so getting out with a good group of guys means more to me than what they drive. End ramble.

This is sad... why has it become such a big deal. We own an r32 gtst and an r33 gtst, so have not been able to go on either of the gtr cruises, but seeing as we are grown ups it didn't matter & we got the f*** over it! Personally, I don't see why people are getting upset at model specific cruises. If our model's included, we'll go, if not, we'll check out the pics upon your return!

Well the last "r34 cruise" i went to copped a bit which is why it was changed to "If you have an R34, make an effort to turn up because similar cars will be there but everyone can turn up if they want cruise"

Ellie.

I think you should cool down because for starters I read what you said a few times and i seem not to understand your Engarish. If i understood right I wasnt the one who started raising the tone of the language in the topic about people who can afford what. Really I dont know where affording a car comes into the equation and how there is cutting the "F**k stick factor", i mean what is the F**k stick factor. Care to explain that to the entire Skylines communitiy, im sure they will love to hear that haha.

I wish I could understand you reasoning because it sounds like something cool. And whats with the sticking up for others? Can they not speak for themselves, or are you some service they pay for? seriously? All i said about your post was "A bit steep there", and purely that was because your French was quite obvious.

If you want to brag about affording an R34, then go buy one and post your pictures and comments on the WASTELAND section, because i'm sure you will get some kiddies saying "Bro, thats fully sick", and that might bump up your ego.

Now i never pointed fingers at you, or Azzurra. If you read the lins correctly I said that Azzurra is doing the right things and organising the R32 Cruise. Here you come and say I'm a bad person.

Mate I'd love any cruise and for your sake i'll say it again, I think what Azzurra is doing is very good. Ok got that.

Now please get back on topic so I dont need to say this again for you to understand.

Good luck with your R32 cruise.

i saw this topic and went ahh cool...old school cruise....i dont see why people are flingin crap in the fan. if you dont have a 32 then get in one, but i see it as a place when other 32 owners can look at same model cars not newer ones. something of a nissan cruise but smaller really. your not going to miss out on much if you dont have one. so if you dont have one then dont worry. i dont see the point in tryin to make it bigger, if a 33 cruise comes around i wont be going in my 32. cause i dont really want to. I bought a 32 for a reason...and i am sure you all bought 33's for a reason, so BE COOL about it.

I am with MountainRunner!

"stipulation isn't a car type or model but on the character of the person" That's what I have learnt from some nice blokes I know recently. Though I am new in here, even a greenhand as a skyline owner. But I still get some respects from other nice skyliners, coz we'r all grown ups shares the same passion.

I treat this forum as a family, and really sad to see you guys going all against each other. I will always be up to a pleasant cruise with some nice ppl no matter what car they drive. ( I used to own a Deawoo and went on a cruise with my WRX friends, they still looked after me well, really appreciate that ) Just try to appreciate the car I have, and enjoy every cruise I can join. :)

Peace....

guys... guys... WHOA THERE NELLY!!!

i think you have all taken this the wrong way.... it was meant as a bit of a tongue in cheek stir at the previous 'model only' cruises... of course you're allowed to come if you have a stagea, or cefiro, or a 31, 33, or 34 as well, or even GTR's... the more the merrier... i was merely trying to point out the stupidity of having ;model specific; cruises, while at the same time, trying to drum up a bit of interest with the r32 boys and girls, as there never really seems to be that big of a turn out of them on cruises.....!

To a certian extent I agree with you, however why should a specfic model r32, r33, 34,gst-t or gtr cruise be considered stupidity?

If someone is thinking that the idea sux that is fine, I don't care and none of us should really care, please feel free not to show up to the event. Or if someone reads the topic title that says something like "calling all gtrs" and someone is thinking "what stupidity" please don't double click to view the thread-we wouldn't want someone to get offended while reading it.

It has been a laugh reading this and the other two threads.

AzzurrA if you are serious about your cruise you should post it up in the event section, I think you should be able to generate alot of interest for it. if you need any help with it feel free to ask (pm)!

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Kapr · Posted

      So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34

      From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
