Only 3 cars, but I was expecting a lot more. Sunny day, open roads and I only saw 1 police car the whole day!

What stopped the numbers from showing up??

I've got a photo or two which I can post soon.

Ended up going through the Black Spurs and onto Eildon. Great Fun! Heaps of Twisties!

Sounds like it was a good run. Having 3 cars turn up is better than one and that one NOT being the organiser. Sorry I couldn't make it, my car was playing up on me. I guess that what I would expect from a 25 year old car.

I went aswell. It was a mad drive, my first time through the black spurs, will definately be going through there again. It was good only having a few cars, everyone was really good to go cruising with. Thanks for a great day! :thumbsup:

How is the boost leak going that you found on the day? Is it serious?

The spurs were great, and the nice long open roads towards Eildon were nice and relaxing. Shame about all the bugs that were massacred on the windshield/ front bar on the way home at night. :D

I'll be looking at organizing another cruise in a few weeks time. Something a little longer and with more twisties to tackle. Keep a lookout for it. I'll see if I can post these pictures of the lookout at Maroondah Dam tonight.

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.

      Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.

      There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.

      yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
