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!

    • Put a fuel pressure gauge on it. Replace the turbos. Probably completely separate issues.
    • What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.
    • Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!
    • No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
