R34 10th Anniversary Charity Cruise N Show N Shine


Recommended Posts

Great to have you all along!

You'll be pleased to know that when "mxfly" posts up the Final Program (by next week), the Start Point will have changed...

to help you ACT guys of course!!!

The Start Point will be at Penrith Regatta Centre opposite P5a and P5b on the Old Castlereagh Road Penrith/Castlereagh

Time will be 9.30am with ETD at 10.30 sharp. This will get us to Mt Wilson by 12 noon.

You'd be best to turn off at the Campbelltown Off Ramp (being careful that Police often park on the grassy strip just before that) >

Turn left towards Narellan where there's a new set of lights that allows you to go straight across onto...

The Northern Road > Turn left just before Penrith onto the M4 >

Take the Mulgoa Road Off Ramp at the 1st Exit and ...

Turn right onto Mulgoa Rd > Go straight ahead even beyond Penrith CBD > Turn left at Old Castlereagh Road ;)

Still come early though, because the Regatta Centre Car Park is very picturesque and we'll have one Japanese lady ("Yuka") in traditional dress at the start. She used to work for a company that had a Skyline GT-R as its flagship; and she's even keen to come on this cruise.

All 7 organisers will be dressed in Orange Shirts.

Regards, Tez

oops forgot about that, well I'll probably stay overnight then, may stay with family, or pick a good hotel somewhere. Anyone recommend a good hotel in Parramatta or the CBD? Been to a few but wouldn't mind a recommendation.

This is where we stay when we go to concerts and events out at Homebush:

I think I'll probs drive home on the day although there's a chance I may stay in the Blue Mountains.

It'll be great to have all Skylines along!

Non-R34s will be in Group#3 (even R35s).

I've checked out to-day that the Pioneer Way Motel Gt Western Hwy Faulconbridge has a driveway gutter that's dead flat at the Entry.

For anyone wanting to stay near the action (20min away from Regatta Ctr) before or after the 26th April, Ph No. = 47512194

Another one is Penrith Valley Inn Memorial Ave Penrith Ph No. = 47311666

This is 5 min from the Regatta Ctr

I've been to a couple of Health Seminars at Rydges Parramatta.

This place has served good food and the gutter entry is not harsh.

Hope this helps,

Hey everyone,

For those of you attending this month's R34 10th Anniversary Charity Cruise, and Show 'n' Shine; here we are announcing the categories in which it is possible to win an award. :down:

All attendees will have the opportunity to have their vehicle judged. And all attendees will have the opportunity to put in votes for the car they think is best on certain criteria. You will note that as it is a day to commemorate the R34 Skyline, all except a few (otherwise stated) awards will be given to R34 Skylines attending on the day. At this stage, the plan is to conduct voting once we reach the photo shoot location at Mount Wilson.

There are 12 categories, as follows:

  1. Best R34 Skyline GT-R
  2. Best R34 Skyline (non GT-R; can be GT, GTt, 4 door, etc)
  3. Best R34 Interior
  4. Best R34 Exterior / Paintwork
  5. Best R34 Engine Bay (judged on workmanship / performance upgrades as well as aesthetics)
  6. Best Wheels on an R34 Skyline
  7. Best ICE / Hi-Fi in an R34 *
  8. Best R32 Skyline
  9. Best R33 Skyline
  10. Best R35 GT-R
  11. Best Non-R32 / R33 / R34 / R35 **
  12. R34 Concourse Award ***

* The In-Car Entertainment / Hi-Fi award is not a sound-off! It will be judged primarily on the quality of workmanship, extensiveness of ICE fitout and the quality of sound produced, NOT raw dB (peak noise output level). Once again we stress that all participants must respect the driving/parking environment that we are in (includes the hearing of members of the public).

** Your favourite attendee's car on the day that is not an R32 or R33 or R34 or "R35", this therefore means it could be a Stagea, S13 / S14 / S15, V35, Z32, Z33 or whatever happens to be there on the day.

*** Obviously Skylines are tuners' cars and it's possible there won't be any completely and utterly 'stock' examples of R34s there on the day, but this award will go to an immaculate, very well looked after R34 that is most likely (but doesn't have to be) very close to original, and epitomises the super happy fun special warm deluxe feeling of R34.

Below are some samples of our certificates to be awarded. Prizes will also be on offer for the lucky winners! :thumbsup: A golden opportunity to boost the re-sale value of your Skyline!!! :thumbsup:

Update: We are in the process of having these Award Certificates signed by none other than Mr Mark Skaife!

All the more incentive to have your cars looking extra 'fly' on the day, to win a prize and an autographed certificate by the legend himself!

Finally, please note if you are attending, that the start location has now changed. We are no longer meeting at Homebush. The new start location is at the Sydney International Regatta Centre, Penrith. Check out the post in the NSW > Events section for details.

Ok final numbers for Canberra peeps that are coming?

Shall we meet at the Shell servo near Epic and head from there? Either there ore Gungahlin Maccas cause that's where I'll be going first :blink: What time does everyone want to leave and at what point would you like to meet up with the cruise? Shall we aim for Richmond or do we want to just get up to Parra?

Im ok to meet a Gungahlin maccas, easy either way. Not sure of exact times but don't think we should leave much later than 6:30-6:40. I'll probably rock up at the meeting point around 6 ish, for some brekky.

Suprised more people aren't interested in a cruise to sydney, a huge number of R34 GTR's and bells line of road, seems like a good combo to me.

Might be better for me to wait for ya's at the shell servo at epic, as I'll be heading up from tuggers. What time will ya be there ya think, Or should I just be there for 6:30.

    • i will be there 😁
    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
