Once again great cruise, thanks Marss. Nice to catch up with people, and that dick that did the burn out your a knob and are seriouslylacking down stairs to need to do something stupid like that.

Nice to meet some of you..

I think it was a bit disorganised, as in people just getting up and going, cars going the long way through Dee Why, as there was no lead car, or at least one of the organisers hazarding so people can catch up... But I guess with that much of a turnout I think you guys did alright..

Hope everyone got home safely.. There was heaps of highways on the way back to the city.. =(

Yup, I'll be the first to admit there was some organisation lacking. the reason why we went through Dee Why is that it is the usual way we go down.. Dunno why people went Wakehurst Parkway, but i guess with that many cars, so few radios and lack of designated "lead" cars, it was bound to happen.

the whole "getting up and leaving" had a lot to do with the burnout that occurred as it's a sure-fire way to get the wrong kind of attention, and I guess people didn't want to hang around waiting for it.

good to meet you, would have liked to have been able to have a proper chat, but circumstances (tired GF :O ) didn't allow it

well organised cruise mars

at one stage I had a whole convoy of cars following me and I had no idea where I was heading and neither did any of them haha, but luckliy it was a straight road down towards deewhy

Assasin,

I guess the cruises you go on are much different to ours.

Majority of us dont cruise. It was more a social meet up and some dinner. This has been going on for many years with SAU NSW (way before most of our time) and has always had a great turn out.

If people wanted to leave at their own will, good on them, we aren't or the organisers aren't going to tell people when and if they can leave.

With a big turn out - 70 or so cars we had - if we were in a big group on the roads, it causes massive delays for the other public members. Esp when everyone sits in the full 3 lanes slowing up for everyone else, we do have to consider everyone else on the road.

And yes, as soon as that toolbag did that burnout I wanted to get out of there also.

People may have gone Wakehurst Parkway to avoid the stretch along the Northern Beaches due to police/defects?

Cheers,

Chris

Oh well, it was definately nice just seeing a massive group together, and meeting some people..

I'm sure where bound to cross paths again Smasha.. =)

I had a great night.

Was a shame that I didn't mix with any of you. I just hung with some mates I dragged along that I hadn't seen in a month or two, but I'll get more chances to meet up later I guess :thumbsup:

Was funny when the Skyline did the massive burn around the corner and one of my mates thought it was Marsss' car. He is not one for paying attention to fine details such as a lack of spoiler and not custom number plates. I got to cut him slack though... once apon a time he mistook an Astra convertable for a S2000... :D

Hope this happens again :P

    • You're going to miss not worrying about rust in the strut towers like the Skyline shitboxes out there
    • A few little updates that weren't filmed due to not taking long to do or not interesting enough for their own video. My new K&N Air Filter arrived, I went with an RU-4180 which matched the dimensions of the universal cone filter the car originally had.  The battery had gone flat, while that was charging I tidied up the spaghetti wiring at the bulk head and down the sides of the engine Next job was to swap the stereo The Kenwood harness had the female ISO plugs cut off and the male ISO plugs cut off the adaptor loom and joined with bullet connectors. I ordered in a repair loom through work and re-did it all. New Kenwood unit installed (Android Auto, DAB, Bluetooth, Reverse Camera) The bonnet/hood gas struts have been poor since collecting the car. I couldn't find any suitable replacements locally so took a chance on a pair from AliExpress.  The originals don't use a retaining clip to secure the cup onto the ball fixture, would explain why I struggled for 10-15mins trying to pry off the cups. The ball fixtures unscrew using a 12mm spanner, new ones are the same size. Sadly no photo of them fitted, you're not missing much lol The dished Momo steering wheel got replaced with my Momo Tuner, turns out I ordered counter sunk bolts for the horn trim ring (like they normally are for the steering wheel) instead of allen cap (flat seat)  A terrible photo of a Quaife style gear shift knob I've had stashed in my tool box for many years after purchasing the incorrect thread size (I can see a pattern emerging with ordering incorrect parts...) Also threw in a cup holder and a (empty) Boss Coffee can, because why not  
    • GT-R clearly the better choice! The 300 is certainly not insaly fast but has a decent amount of poke. Does a nice little drift around the corners with a decent amount of throttle. It's VERY predictable in a slide too.  Feels so progressive! People probably presume there's a 25 year old driving it based on my behaviour this week! 🤣
    • Yeah Jap import. Fairlady Z then! I'm a bit the same.  They've been on my radar for a fair while but then just impulsively decided to buy one!  Was going to just buy an NA and add turbos to it later but decided to save the f'ing around and just buy the turbo version. 
    • Thanks mate, well done to you too! Yeah not looking forward to doing any major work to it!
