Yeh i noticed that camera on the white gtr, very creative! Can't wit to see what the footage looks like!

The suction cap is cool and it will never fall off. We put it on the back window of a gemini with a v8 in it while it was in a burnout comp so that was enough proof for me.

We got some wicked footage with it.

Looks like a great turnout! Well done to the organisers and everyone who participated! Some ace photos in there too people.

As mentioned, if you join up to SAU-Vic, we run a 2 day GOR cruise every year in Summer which is awesome fun plus you also get the added bonus of being invited to run at DECA and other member's cruises throughout the year.

Just an added note, it's not that hard to organise a non-member cruise. All you need to do is post a EOI thread in the Events section and take it from there. It's a lot of fun getting so many cars heading out together for some fun!

Damn that looked like fun, I was on the highway going the other way b/w Geelong and Avalon - Saw the first car and went "mmmmmm..... 34", saw the next two and thought "wow, what're the odds?" and then the ensuing torrent of Nissan's was downright impressive.

Was a great day/cruise. Well done to Daniel (Cheez) for organising!! The GOR was pretty slow but me an few others up the front got a few small decent sections in.

The photos on the pier was organised really quickly an simply which was good, an parking around Apollo Bay wasnt really an issue.

Me an a few other Geelong crew left about half hour before the main cruise an went the back way through the hills an to Geelong. Was a awsome drive!! From Skenes Creek to Forest only 3 cars came up in front of us which all pulled over as soon as they could which was great. Best drive of the day.

was a great turn out with over 60 cars! was even better that there was no real stupid driving behavoiur, making it an incident an police free day.

Freaking awsum cruise everybody, couldnt have asked for better weather, everything went wicked.

I wasnt in my R32 GTR but i was in the back of that screamer of a black r33 gtst....... big headache from the mount

of "gateing".............. :laughing-smiley-014:

my son in the blue GtiR had great fun racing in the twisties, (shout out to the guy in the purple 33GTR Vspec that had a good go in front of him)

cant wait for the vid/DVD, will definately be purchasing 1. ;)

The convoy looked great coming the other way guys ;)

Top effort!

I annoyed the shit out of my passengers telling them how ace the SAU cruises were (my first ever was a GOR run back in March 2003!)

Ah - happy times.

Just so you know Team P1 Hummer is always looking out for you :)

hey mate, thanks glad you had as much of an awsome time as i did. goin overseas on thursday so as i get back ill try and get my ass in gear and get the vid done.

Hay Cheez... ...Thanks for such a great day...

Lets put it in our calendar for the 2nd Sunday in September next year... ...Just think... ...10 weeks = 60+ cars... ...Just imagine how many cars would show up for 52 weeks... ;)

Also... ...Who's up for collecting copies of all the tape and putting together the DVD???... ...I'll run off a DVD of all my stuff... ...Or I can drop around with my tape and you can take an hour or so to encode the whole thing... ...if you don't mind putting a sound track over me and the missus' mindless banter...

That 33 with the screamer was mental! Was behind you guys for a bit and that car looked insane overtaking! I was the one from the kamikaze shootout. :)

    • Wheel alignment immediately. Not "when I get around to it". And further to what Duncan said - you cannot just put camber arms on and shorten them. You will introduce bump steer far in excess of what the car had with stock arms. You need adjustable tension arms and they need to be shortened also. The simplest approach is to shorten them the same % as the stock ones. This will not be correct or optimal, but it will be better than any other guess. The correct way to set the lengths of both arms is to use a properly built/set up bump steer gauge and trial and error the adjustments until you hit the camber you need and want and have minimum bump steer in the range of motion that the wheel is expected to travel. And what Duncan said about toe is also very true. And you cannot change the camber arm without also affecting toe. So when you have adjustable arms on the back of a Skyline, the car either needs to go to a talented wheel aligner (not your local tyre shop dropout), or you need to be able to do this stuff yourself at home. Guess which approach I have taken? I have built my own gear for camber, toe and bump steer measurement and I do all this on the flattest bit of concrete I have, with some shims under the tyres on one side to level the car.
    • Thought I would get some advice from others on this situation.    Relevant info: R33 GTS25t Link G4x ECU Walbro 255LPH w/ OEM FP Relay (No relay mod) Scenario: I accidentally messed up my old AVS S5 (rev.1) at the start of the year and the cars been immobilised. Also the siren BBU has completely failed; so I decided to upgrade it.  I got a newer AVS S5 (rev.2?) installed on Friday. The guy removed the old one and its immobilisers. Tried to start it; the car cranks but doesnt start.  The new one was installed and all the alarm functions seem to be working as they should; still wouldn't start Went to bed; got up on Friday morning and decided to have a look into the no start problem. Found the car completely dead.  Charged the battery; plugged it back in and found the brake lights were stuck on.  Unplugging the brake pedal switch the lights turn off. Plug it back in and theyre stuck on again. I tested the switch (continuity test and resistance); all looks good (0-1kohm).  On talking to AVS; found its because of the rubber stopper on the brake pedal; sure enough the middle of it is missing so have ordered a new one. One of those wear items; which was confusing what was going on However when I try unplugging the STOP Light fuses (under the dash and under the hood) the brake light still stays on. Should those fuses not cut the brake light circuit?  I then checked the ECU; FP Speed Error.  Testing the pump again; I can hear the relay clicking every time I switch it to ON. I unplugged the pump and put the multimeter across the plug. No continuity; im seeing 0.6V (ECU signal?) and when it switches the relay I think its like 20mA or 200mA). Not seeing 12.4V / 7-9A. As far as I know; the Fuel Pump was wired through one of the immobiliser relays on the old alarm.  He pulled some thick gauged harness out with the old alarm wiring; which looks to me like it was to bridge connections into the immobilisers? Before it got immobilised it was running just fine.  Im at a loss to why the FP is getting no voltage; I thought maybe the FP was faulty (even though I havent even done 50km on the new pump) but no voltage at the harness plug.  Questions: Could it be he didnt reconnect the fuel pump when testing it after the old alarm removal (before installing the new alarm)?  Is this a case of bridging to the brake lights instead of the fuel pump circuit? It's a bit beyond me as I dont do a lot with electrical; so have tried my best to diagnose what I think seems to make sense.  Seeking advice if theres for sure an issue with the alarm install to get him back here; or if I do infact, need an auto electrician to diagnose it. 
    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
