I had an awesome time, was looking forward to it all weekend.

My son Coen had a great time as well, being my codriver and all that - yes he wants to race cars, bump the enemies off the road, only as long as his car is green tho LOL

I peeled off at the Clarendon turnoff as it was 5mins to home for me from there (Morphett Vale), so Im not too sure where ppl's might have ended up at the end of the cruise......

Did we take the wrong road out of Strath back into Meadows? Either way both roads (Paris Creek rd, which we took, or the Bull Creek rd, my favourite road in Aussieland) would have been perfect. The road into Strath from Mtbarker which we took, thru maccelsfield, is a beauty hey !! Gets slippery tho but I was pleased to see every driver was taking it carefully and not doing anything silly. These areas were my bike haunts so while I know them at a flat out pace no probs, its a bit different in a wagon!! :laughing-smiley-014:

Cheers, had a great arvo. Nice pics. Nice cars. Nice peeps too.

Looks like a great cruise guy and girls, sorry i missed it due to my car being in the spray shop getting my new front bar fitted.

Hope to see you all at the next cruise when my car will finally be running correctly.

Yeah good cruise, excellent turnout. I had to head off before the last stop because had to get home but easily found our way with the "pace notes", even with the little mistakes.

Now I just need to do some more work to my car so it doesnt stand out for being so damn stock. Second hand coil overs here I come.

haha we thought you were on the cruise. I thought i was following you for the first part, only found out at Mt Barker that it was someone else's car when i tried to come over and say hi :)

good pics there everyone, wish i had a camera for Green Hill rd. Being nearly the last car it looked great seeing the skylines stretching along the whole road that i could see :)

awesome cruise lee, cheers heaps for organzing it. Had a great time and i even got to drive lol, then co-pilot Luke took back over :)

Had a bit of a scare when i got pulled over by undercover cop bike on the end of the cruise, had a nice chat lol.. pointed out some defects, said he didnt have time/had more important things to do and let me go.. Seemed surprised it was my car. Said he was glad to see we werent driving like a tool haha. Some cops are ok i guess, he seemed pretty cool, was asking me bout the 'new skylines' and what we thought etc. I was nervous as but just made general chitchat and car-talk until he let us go,

Scary end to my cruise tho!

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
