THIS CRUISE IS BEING MOVED TO EARLY NEW YEAR. WILL POST UP A NEW DATE IN THE NEXT WEEK OR 3.

Thanks

Hey Guys and Girls had such a great time on the central coast cruise so its time for another cruise at the end of the November.

This time we are going to do a run out to Wollombi Pub out near Broke for lunch and a good old chin wag, this will encompass a route that will pick up the people interested from the central coast so I’ll discuss a meeting point with the CC pplz and go from there.

If people have any suggestions for meet up locations for the central coast or Newcastle if current doesn’t suit and anything else then please let me know. The last cruise we went on the central coast cruise was a really great day - so make sure you let any skyline owners who do not check SAU regularly know that this is event is on too.

Hope to see as many people as possible should be a great day :blink:

Tinks and DJ Brave are in in innnnnnnnnn!!!!!

Coasties can prolly meet at the northbound Caltex on the F3 for this one Luke. I'll see what they all wanna do and let you know.

BRING ON THE JUNGLE JUICE!!! :blink:

We organised a cruise out there a few months ago but you guys will freak when you see the roads out there, they are so bad. We got to to outskirts of Cessnock and they were dirt tracks. So we cancelled it.

I'm so not taking my car out there, I cant afford a 3rd respray :LOL:

????????????????????????????

We only came across one very small section of dirt road up there - it was about 500m tops and was just dirt, not rocks or anything - we just rolled over it and kept going... there wasn't any other dirt roads...???

GTsauRus knows all those roads out there - he was the lead car when we went and it was all roller coaster, wide, open, nice roads - a few bumps here and there but nothing you wouldn't get in the suburbs... no onw's cars were damaged or filthy dirty (apart from a little rain!).

Maybe we should consult GTsauRus on this one - THE FARSHER!!!!! :blink:

PS - Brett: bring both cars!!! Your dad has never come with us! goooooooo onnnnnnnnnn!!!

Most of the roads around Cessnock / Pokolbin are fine, never had any problems! ...depends how far out of Cessnock ur going i guess - but iv never seen too may dirt roads or really rough roads around there- and they are definately not main roads!

No need to panic everyone! :(

We were planning on going up to the wine places for the cruise and went and checked them out and the roads were tradgic. If you guys have been there then I'll take your word on it.....

What roads are you planning on taking BLACK WARRIOR ?

From what I recall - the roads werent that bad couple of years ago and I did it in my VT Gen3 - handled pretty good, although a week before a club member did roll it.....so some parts can be bad!

Oh I didn't realise it was going to be Pokolbin way.... Those roads are fkin terrible. Im not going if its out there either! :(

i roads at the arse end of cessnock arn't the best,but saying that there not the worst road its very driveable,plus theres a awsome road just out the back or wollombi towards lagoona nice and twisty and from wot i can remeber there pretty smooth and ALLWAYS damp:) ill be in 4sure plus maybe another 33gtr.

(awsome food there by the way!!!)

I will be goin down the hwy to meet cc coast guys at central mangrove then we will head inland we will not be on the putty as such we will then head north up to wollombi, there are no dirt roads and the roads are fine and a lot of fun stop being such a bunch of wimps :(. no loose gravel or anythin.

u wont need any resprays have done this road plenty of times with no hickups roads are very good fine for everyone!

Me and Pete (brizzi.. just for you chong) maybe in depending on roads. A map would be good first though..

Brizzi"s cars bak on the road so we will cruise in his my baby can hav a rest for this one..

Come on Newy people the roads aren't that bad anymore..

    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
