was yours the 33 or the 32, either one i was in love with them both if any one deserves a :) its the GTR's mmmmmmmm

Great pics! mine was the 32, its awesome to see alot of pics of mine as i havent had the opportunity to see it in the sun very often lately!

Anyone got more pics of cars on the freeway at all?

great pics it looked like alot of fun, should have a skyline in a few months so im definately coming next time. are there many single chicks on the cruise? lol. anyway love the pics at apollo bay ive been there a few times and stayed there a few times as well its a great place. only bad thing was when we had a car crash coming home, a cement truck ran a stop sign and we hit him on his side and made it tip and roll over onto its side thank god we got out ok. My mum got a fractured sternum and that was the worst of the injuries also dad was driving not me i was only on my L's when it happened. it happened near colac a few years ago we went over the crest and the truck never stopped he just went straight through. so it shows that fords can be pretty safe cars lol the ambulance thought we were all dead when he first got there. And thats probably why i drive a little bit safer now but not like a grandma or anything lol. enough about me crapping on about rubbish it looked like a great cruise and also a perfect day.

East 17 isn't... ...that... ...gay...

yes it is. the others are being nice and not telling you the truth so they don't hurt your feelings. its gay. at first I thought it was emo garbage... then when the beat kicked in it became gay.

Well... ...I do do requests... ...What would you like to hear instead???...

haha... got any Pantera? lol I'm jus givin you shit, the vids are good. I did spill my coffee though.

Hehehe... ..."By Demons Be Driven" made it to my short list for that vid... ...but I couldn't pass up "It's Alright" for the cheese factor...

Usually when I pick a track for a song I just sort iTunes by "time" and , for example, that vid was 4:41 long... ...so I just pick a track that is the same length... ...I've got about 8,000 tracks in iTunes... ...So I'm almost never without a track that fits the time right... ...If I can't find anything I'll drop a second off and that'll open up another 20 or so tracks...

My brother almost shit a brick when he heard it... ...He'd totally forgoten that he was a huge East 17 fan... :)

does anyone have any photo's or video of my skyline. I would love to see it.

My skyline is the r33 thats orange with a gold pearl and has deep dish black rims with a chrome lip.

I would really appreciate anyone who has anything.

Thanks heaps guys for a brilliant cruise yesterday.

    • The average previous owner for these cars were basically S-chassis owners in the US. Teenagers or teenager-adjacent. I often tell people that neglect is easier to fix than something that was actively "repaired" by previous owners.
    • Update 3: Hi all It's been a while. Quite a lot of things happened in the meantime, among other things the car is (almost) back together and ready to be started again. Things that I fixed or changed: Full turbo removal, fitting back the OEM turbo oil hardlines. Had to do quite a bit of research and parts shopping to get every last piece that I need and make it work with the GT2860 turbos, but it does work and is not hard to do. Proves that the previous owner(s) just did not want to. While I was there I set the preload for the wastegates to 0,9bar to hopefully make it easier for the tuner to hit the 370hp I need for the legal inspections that will follow later on. Boost can always go up if necessary. Fitted a AN10 line from the catch can to the intake hose to make the catchcan and hopefully the cam covers a slight vacuum to have less restrictive oil returns from the head and not have mud build up as harshly in the lines and catch can. Removed the entire front interior just shy of the dashboard itself to clean up some of the absolutely horrendous wiring, (hopefully) fix the bumpy tacho and put in LED bulbs while I was there. Also put in bulbs where there was none before, like the airbag one. I also used that chance to remove the LED rpm gauge on the steering column, which was also wired in absolute horror show fashion. Moved the 4in1 Prosport gauge from sitting in front of the OEM oil pressure gauge to the center console vents, I used a 3D printed vent piece to hold that gauge there. The HKB steering wheel boss was likely on incorrectly as I sometimes noticed the indicator reset being uneven for left vs. right. In the meantime also installed an airbag delete resistor, as one should. Installed Cube Speed premium short shifter. Feels pretty nice, hope it'll work great too when I actually get to drive. Also put on a fancy Dragon Ball shift knob, cause why not. My buddy was kind enough to weld the rust hole in the back, it was basically rusted through in the lowermost corner of the passenger side trunk area where the wheel arch, trunk panel and rear quarter all meet. Obviously there is still a lot of crustiness in various areas but as long as it's not rusted out I'll just treat and isolate the corrosion and pretend it's not there. Also had to put down a new ground wire for the rear subframe as the original one was BARELY there. Probably a bit controversial depending on who you ask about this... but I ended up just covering the crack in the side of the engine block, the one above the oil feed, with JB Weld. I used a generous amount and roughed up the whole area with a Dremel before, so I hope this will hold the coolant where it should be for the foreseeable future. Did a cam cover gasket job as the half moons were a bit leaky, and there too one could see the people who worked on this car before me were absolute tools. The same half moons were probably used like 3 times without even cleaning the old RTV off. Dremeled out the inside of the flange where the turbine housing mates onto the exhaust manifolds so the diameter matches, as the OEM exhaust manifolds are even narrower than the turbine housings as we all know. Even if this doesn't do much, I had them out anyways, so can't harm. Ideally one would port-match both the turbo and the manifold to the gasket size but I really didn't feel up to disassembling the turbine housings. Wrapped turbo outlet dumps in heat wrap band. Will do the frontpipe again as well as now the oil leak which promted me to tear apart half the engine in the first place is hopefully fixed. Fitted an ATI super damper to get rid of the worn old harmonic balancer. Surely one of the easiest and most worth to do mods. But torquing that ARP bolt to spec was a bitch without being able to lock the flywheel. Did some minor adjustments in the ECU tables to change some things I didn't like, like the launch control that was ALWAYS active. Treated rusty spots and surface corrosion on places I could get to and on many spots under the car, not pretty or ideal but good enough for now. Removed the N1 rear spats and the carbon surrounding for the tailpipe to put them back on with new adhesive as the old one was lifting in many spots, not pretty. Took out the passenger rear lamp housing... what do you know. Amateur work screwed me again here as they were glued in hard and removing it took a lot of force, so I broke one of the housing bolts off. And when removing the adhesive from the chassis the paint came right off too. Thankfully all the damaged area won't be visible later, but whoever did the very limited bodywork on this car needs to have their limbs chopped off piece by piece.   Quite a list if I do say so myself, but a lot of time was spent just discovering new shit that is wrong with the car and finding a solution or parts to fix it. My last problem that I now have the headache of dealing with is that the exhaust studs on the turbo outlets are M10x1.25 threaded, but the previous owner already put on regular M10 nuts so the threads are... weird. I only found this out the hard way. So now I will just try if I can in any way fit the front pipe regardless, if not I'll have to redo the studs with the turbos installed. Lesson learned for the future: Redo ALL studs you put your hands on, especially if they are old and the previous owners were inept maniacs. Thanks for reading if you did, will update when the engine runs again. Hope nothing breaks or leaks and I can do a test drive.
    • No those pads are DBA too  but they have colors too. I look at the and imo the green "street" are the best.
