I was only expecting a few cars, BUT there was 7 of us, with a few more from devonport way joining the group at Sheffield.

There were:

Stuart & Deb (SAU) - 32 GTR

Paul (smudgee69) - 33 gtr

Me - 32 GTS t

Dale & Chris - 33 GTSt

Jason - 32 GTR

Shane - 32 GTSt

Matt - Supra

???? - GTRi Devonport

????? - SSS Devonport

As you can see there were more non members than members - but who gives'a. Interestingly there were 4 baby seats (with kids in them) that came along. Good on you dads...we will get them young.

Cruised west through Deloraine, Mole Creek, Chudleigh, Gowrie Park, Sheffield. In this we went through 2.5 Targa stages including half of the famous Cethana stage. All up 250 klms.

Day was fine and sunny (yes I know it's winter in Tas) but icy in some parts. I will never disregard thoses "ICY" signs again.

It was a fun day with a mix of comradeship, Nissan nutting, family and heaps of brisk driving.

Next one 3 - 4 months.

Thx STUART for pics

Keep this up and you will be able to form an official SAU-TAS :D

Love to come down via the ferry someday and try those great Tassie roads in my GTS4 - always remember I used to hire a Ford Cortina 250 when down there in 70's covering the whole state repairing micrographics gear.

Handling was a bit ordinary but you could bag em up easy :)

YEP we are aiming for 2010 to have it all up and running :(

Wish I was there, I just didn't have time to bleed my brakes :(

You and me both but i have a car with broken glass, locks and ignition barrel and a popped motor.

So i think it would of been a pretty long day pushing the thing everywhere!!!

      From Japan and back to Europe, my sh*tbox R34 GTT

      By GoHashiriya · Posted

      Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.

      WTB R34 GTR Guard Liners

      Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?

      I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
