Soory guys, won't be able to make it. Had laser eye surgery(highly recommend to anyone wearing glasses) during the week and my eye are still adjusting.

Ah, kick ass!

I was looking at getting this done last month. The $5200 price tag is just a little rich for me at this point.

Have fun today guys!

It was a great drive and everyone seemed to enjoy and behave themselves.

What a way to spend a couple of hours on a sunday; driving along some twisty roads with a bunch of similarly minded people.

We only had one car injury which was a few lost wheel nuts and a sheared stud, meanwhile i got a bit out of shape around a tight corner (owning a GTR doesn't make you a better driver), but other than that it was a incident free event.

It was good to meet up with everyone and see some new faces, we had about 10 cars for the cruise. Hopefully someone can organise another cruise before the SAU track day and we can get even more people to attend.

was a great day out. i coulda' had more fun if my car wasn't f*cked. i was surprised i was keeping up the way i did.... fun was had by most, except for maybe eebl and would definately do it again.

BIG THANKS to Donnan for organising the event which went off without a hitch. well done son... ;)

A sunday drive is really easy to organise, just look at my first post, that is all i did to organise the day!

Maybe someone else could have a crack at it. Just figure out a date, time and a route that is interesting. Try not to change the details much or try to keep them secret as people flake pretty quickly if things change too much or find it difficult to find out what is going on.

Hope to see you all soon!

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
