Cool I'll b there.. for my 1st SAUWA Cruise...

Speaking of Idiot Drivers.. a WRX tried to drag me last nite... n i just let him go n watch him take off @ the lights.., funny that... on the opposite side of the road ahead of us was a Cop Car parked, we didn't see it cuz it was dark.. but as soon he went pass the copz.. it did a 3 point turn in front of me while i was cruising along. n chased after it with it's emergency light on..

Wonder if he caught him.... hehehe.. I was So Lucky (Was Gonna give him a Run but had an Extra Person in the Car):D

When I said 'interesting' it was because I often wonder what 'real skyline' drivers think of R31s and R31 drivers, and I got the feeling she might've said that because I'm bringing an R31. No implications meant though, I meant only what I said =)

its a skyline its got stove top tail lights its more than welcome (says this as imlooking at picking up a bunkyr31 for kids to learn in lol)

I'm guessing you're Jeff and Bayley's dad :(, unless there is another Passage/GTS-R brother and sister in WA =P

I know Bay v. well as I'm very active in the R31 club, only met Jeff a few times including tonight at the nav run, I wish he'd bring his GTS-R on a cruise some time, I'd love to see it.

Jeff wraps his GTSr up in cotton wool so you wont see it on many cruz's but i think its coming to this cruz.

It wasnt in reference to the type of car you have. We just dont want stupid drivers in general. Regardless of what car you drive :)

Speaking of which, haha... You should have seen this P plater that is driving a blue rx-7 (only JUST bought from Auto Wholesale). Came on a cruise last night, well to the initial meetpoint.. trying to talk himself up a bit an the car. LOL Yeah the car was nice... but he was saying he was a really good driver or it would be have been wrecked by now, to which i replied with... You only just picked that up ...didn't you?

which he said "Yeah on tuesday actually" LOL

was quite the funnies. Im not saying he WAS a bad driver, but he was acting like he was all that and that he was skilled etc cus he hadn't crashed the car, yet he only had it a few days, not even long enough to stick it into something LOL.

It is a manditory occurance for all P platers to crash at least twice :).

They (P platers) don't know it but its not what you do in the car that makes you a good driver, its knowing what everyone else around is doing or premeditating the actions of everyday driving around you. Curtious and unhesitant is good driving, not doing a burnout and JUST missing that pole because I knew what I was doing :D

sorry, I have to rant sometimes and i get carried away.

See y'all tomorrow, yeehar!

ease up on the P platers yoll, they arent all bad drivers. I for one have owned modified turbo imports since I got my license and are now on my 5th import turbo at 22 and have never had an accident or lost my license.

Might try make it to this cruise.

Called in sick *coughs* at about 8am with a grey sky & looking crap, but now there is some blue & the sun is out, game on see ya's in a couple of hours. :D

God damn, I was on my way up there and my car started overheating after I changed the coolant yesterday. Waited a while, added water and purged air from the top, thought it was good, then about 20mins down the road, same problem. Nursed it home, but not happy :D

Thanks everyone

I didn't go on the cruise as I was out running in my new bike.

Stopped at the Mundaring Weir lookout and was treated to a driveby from some of the nicest Skylines in Perth. :)

Some of those GTR's are just beautiful.

Was a bit worried to see an ambulance with it's lights on leading the cruise though.

And I know who took that curve a bit quick too :whistling:

    • looking for some help and maybe some insight on others experience with a new LSD. R34 GT ran and drove beautifully, but always alot of grip loss due to the open R200 rear end, so I just installed a new 1.5 LSD way into the stock open R200 for a ER34. Simple. Everything seemed right. I test drove for the first time this weekend. as I started to back out the garage the first time slowly with tires straight it sounded and felt like I had a loose or half disconnected drive shaft...that was clucking around loose and shaking entire vehicle, and making it feel like the trans clutch was spontaneously slipping then grabbing very roughly while just letting out pedal slowly. I backed it out went to pull forward with the same noise, shake and slip grab feeling with hesitation, I turned the tires to back out more and then pulled ahead some same thing but worst because of added wheel resistance (which that I expected) puzzled … pulling it back in checking everything over and finding nothing wrong, I tried it the next day. same thing, couldn’t believe how it shook everything again making a terrible noise and making it feel like the trans clutch was slipping and grabbing, but I got it out of garage into the driveway, got it straight, drove forward and then reveres a few times in a straight line everything shaking , causing what felt like clutch slip and grab every time, sounded like right behind front driver tire and I could feel it in the floor board with my feet,... worst right when beginning to let clutch pedal out to engage slightly, shuttering and sounding terrible along the way…I managed to slowly get down the road, babying it the whole way, once I was rolling (out of 1st) seemed to be better and between shifts, then clutch felt closer to normal…not slip/ grab etc., but back down to any stop, straight road or turning, same thing. Made no difference if all tires were straight or if I was turning. All other gauge read out correct. with in 2 miles as planned I reached the empty parking lot and performed the break in procedure that came with lsd, essentially to drive in a figure 8 a bunch.  Did this, binding chattering, and shaking the car the whole way. I drove it back home seemed somewhat normal once I was in straight line and past 10 mph or so, and I know it will “bind” on corners and cause some tires squeal when turning especially from a stop, but when I begin to move it still causes what feels like the trans clutch to slip and jerk badly as well as shaking the entire car, and sounds terrible, that I didn’t expect. I used the fluid they supplied with LSD kit and did the breaking, planning to change fluid as they suggest after breaking, but wondering will it get smoother or less aggressive with use? maybe a 1.5 is just too aggressive for normal road driving?   I have a LSD that I put in my 71 cuda when I restored it, with amazing smooth , quite yet effective results. Different style LSD but that ones a joy to drive. maybe expecting too much from this R200?

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
