Hi for all those who haven't been in the northside topic but want to get in on a cruise we are planning the following (note we are open to suggestions and ideas especially from people who have planned cruises before)

The route is yet to be determined and finalized and will be updated as we go. So far I have the following info:

The cruise will start at Hungry Jacks morayfield at aprox 7:30pm we will wait there untill 8pm then begin our run down into burpengary (if someone knows a good location to park in burpengary please let us know) (approx stopping time in burpengary will be 15 mins) then from there we will continue to D'Bay where we will stop at the shell service station on deception bay road this will be an approx 20 min stop so people can chat and refuel. From there I am hoping to find a few people in redcliffe that want to join in and we will cut a lap down there and stop to do a meet and greet(once again a suitable location for parking and conversation would be appreciated...somewhere near the water front.) for about 30 mins. Then as many people seem to be in bracken ridge a run from Redcliffe via the hornybrook bridge down to bracken ridge (yet another location we will need suitable parking at) stopping for about 20 mins to collect more people for the cruise. From bracken ridge we could cruise back up the highway to the BP service stations that are on the bruce highway just south of the Buchannans road exit. From there the suggestion for a final stop at The great outdoors centre on morayfield road was suggested for some conversation and to say goodbye and share our thoughts on the cruise and what could be done to improve it for the next one.

I have tried to keep travel in the suburbs to a minimum to maximise the quallity of the drive (60 in a skyline is like taking a hot chick home and all you get is a hand job...) Anyone with suggestions please PM me or post Also the route can be changed subject to the level of interest and participation of other skyline owners. I am hoping to finish up at about 12-1am but if people would like to stay on and chat for longer thats cool.

So far the interested parties are as follows:

RandomHero83 : morayfield HJ's Meeting point

Date in title changed as per posts below :cool: - Revhead

how are you for the friday omy-33? we could do it on the friday night if u wanted seeing as you were one of the people that helped get this idea rolling it's only fitting your able to participate.

Sweet rolzy32 we should get a bit of interest in it i hope.

^^^^lol^^^^

um i can meet u either in hj's or burpenary it doesn't really worry me?

i won't b driving very hard either, water pump has decided 2 start leaking when i got the clutch changed, so it'll b back in the workshop soon. lol

ok HJ's would be best so there is at least of us from the first leg. Damn thats gotta suck is it just a seal or is it the pump itself?

GTST u gonna come on this cruise? if so what stop are you gonna get in with it?

We'll gun for between 7:30 and 8 then we ill go to wollies car park in burpengary for 15 mins then we will go to the shell in D'bay for 15 mins then if the lads in northlakes decide to join in we will go down to the BP on the main drag there then back up the highway to the great outdoors centre thats the route atm unless people add to it by sayin something along the lines of "oi i'm at (insert location here) and i wanna be a part of it add a stop for me" prob be more chattin and checkin ouyt cars than cruising atm due to the lack of people atm. so it will be a rest for your car if need be i can alway pick ya up and spare your line's water pump the strain.

yeah so we are a go for friday night not saturday night guys FRIDAY the 15th not saturday the 16th. the order of visit atm is HJ's morayfield (7:30-8:00) wollies burpengary 8:15-8:30 then to d'bay shell on d'bay road. unless we get some interest from somewhere else before lunchtime tomorrow we will be going from d'bay up the highway back to the great outdoors centre carbark on morayfield rd.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
