haha yeah 6 cars ended up comin through for a gander at what was going on with the rex, lucky they couldn't prove how fast he was going, but i think everyone can say they they shat a little when the cops were walking up an down checkin out the other cars and wat happened to the 33 4dr? coz cops were talkin to the owne then it look like he was raising the car up, dam it was low an loud, lucky they didnt hear it haha

yer cruise was great until i had to raise my car up. they said it was to low and they were gonna give me a yellow and then impound my car for some reason. but in fairness to them they let me raise it up on the spot(thank god for coilovers might get bags next time) which wasn't to bad and they were quite happy with it in 4WD spec and let me off. thank god they didn't check under the bonnet.

But yer great cruise and good turn out :thumbsup:

had a great time at the cruise today..lots of gorgeous looking cars ard..just too bad the cops had to come and spoil the party..the tunnel run was just breathtaking!! really pity the wrx, damn unlucky to get caught, but all in all a very enjoyable first time cruise!! looking forward to the next big cruise! :thumbsup:

Hey Julz, Great work with the cruise! Fun stuff with the cops at the second last meet... What was that wrx thinking when he came through? Great to meet some more people and see some more of the great skylines out there! As well as the other cars, and the stageas!!

Think I spotted you guys going through the intersection of Leach and Risley St, Booragoon around 11pm. I was at the lights in my other car, just finished watching Step Up 2. Would have joined in, but my fuel tank was right on zero at that point.

Nice pics Optic

Good cruise, great turn out!! I bailed early when the cops came, didnt want a yellow on my first cruise. Didnt have a good night afterwards, got pulled over by the cops later on that night, then one was suspicious with the directions on my passenger seat!! Dunno why I bailed, mine was the most boring and stock car there!! Maybe next time it'll look better. Good to meet a lot of you guys, and well done on the organisation!!

Haha yeah cops were good sports in the end I guess, kinda glad I have a stock looking car, just glad I didn't have to start it in front of them lol, straight through 3" ftl :thumbsup: Got pulled in to a RBT on the way home too, 200m after smashing limiter ::D I swear the FMIC is for show officer :down: And to top it all off, wheelspin through 1st through an intersection in front of a cop... damn I have good luck haha!

Good cruise though, Scarbs on a Friday night was always gonna be hectic but wasn't too bad in the end. Good map though, I must admit I looked at it at the start and thought "yep, another hotspot cruise" but turned out to be a really good fun :ph34r:

Some gorgeous looking cars there, mad props to the 34 GTR with the chameleon rims too, pure porn!

Cheers!

was a good cruise

really well written map

pitty about the cops

cheers

Thanks mate, First time ive organised cruz and the second one I've ever been on. Didnt expect soo many people would be at scarborough, made us park far from the food places. Cant wait to see more photos from the guys with the nice cameras. They buy nice equipment and we get to have nice photos, lucky to have them around cheers! Ah well cops have to do their job.

I think mosman beach was a nice stop ay..? maybe next time get all the cars in a diagonal formation or something for a good photo. One just with the cars and one with the cars and their owners standing near it or something.

^ bloody good idea julz...

was gonna go and intro myself when i saw you handing out maps but i didn't know you were 'mellow yellow' until later on and i was like nah... next time lol

girlfriend was getting cranky; pregnant = hungry, tired and exhausted which is also why we bailed early...

was an awesome turnout though, loved the stops except scabs was a bit unfortunate, just finished getting food... didn't even get to start eating and saw all of you guys leaving the carpark, thought we were gonna get left behind then got followed by at least 2 cop cars onto the freeway then one followed us from freeway to burswood... cops behind us in the tunnel = B O R I N G...

awesome cruise though, awesome

very happy with the map, keep that one for other cruises, its especially SOR friendly too, so i liked it.

Great run through the tunnel, Gate open, it was music to my ears. :thumbsup:

Ate to much at Macca's though, feeling sick now lol.

    • You know how your car rolled through a fence in your last jacking escapade? Scissor jacks increase the likely hood of that sort of thing happening immensely!
    • http://calfinn.com.au/product/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c   I have this and fits under a S3 33 GTR with no issues. Purchased in 2009 and not one issue. It was $950 back then. Not cheap but something so important isn’t worth cheaping out on.
    • Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
    • Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).
    • Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
