Hey welcome to the area, I am in wangaratta and sometimes head up that way. There really is not that much that happens up this way. most of it happens in the cities. Sometimes there is a bit of action at the winton raceway. There are a few skylines up there but i have not been able to find any members yet. As for crusies drop into any of the car parts dealers (autobarn,supercheap) and just ask if there are any car clubs around.

If you happen to come down this way look out for a black 4dr r33 (ovabst)

Hey mate, I'm in Wodonga. Driving a White R33. Plenty of skylines getting around this area. Mine is a weekend car only. Seems to be alot of Silvias around now too.

The car clubs tend to come and go, not much happening at the moment, although there are always guys going out for a drive. There are a few blokes from here on SAU that I know, I guess there are more that I don't know. Plenty that don't get on here.

If you see me around come say G'day, as far as I know my car is the only one in town with an SAU sticker.

Cheers,

Brendan.

Used to be up that way. Now back down in Melbourne but stiil make the hike up there to visit my cousin and uncle in Kiewa every now and then. If im up there its usually on the weekends. Look out for white R33 with GTR Spoiler and 400r kit

Born and raised there, but moved to melbourne in december 08, so just missed out. You werent the only one with a sau sticker brendan, but like yourself i hadnt seen any car with one. Not much going for it in terms of the import scene around that way at all.

    • They're all horrible. X-Trails have had a nasty sounding 4cyl since forever, no matter what engine family it came from. The CVTs only made that worse. Then the whole Renault thing only made every Nissan that was contaminated by them even worse again. The only fun I've had in a X-Trail was having it blown sideways across a frozen Minnesota highway at 90 mph trying to make it to the airport to get out of the frozen hellhole of Hoth. Nearly died. Was great fun.
    • Alrighty, I'll have to grab a couple pics and type out something soon in another post. I haven't driven a modern X no, this would be the first one really. Yeah the rental boxes are always cheap as chips right? So I'd doubt that anyone was handing out GTs to go and abuse. But I s'pose I could be wrong for sure. New cars these days though? Pretty unimpressed with what I see now; 20 years and all that, like you said. It just kind of worked out to have these two cars now. I'm pretty pleased with that, don't need much else. I'm sure you lads are right about the temps and for sure, you wouldn't have much time to drive 'em down there if you all were like me. I do hate sweating all over the seats though😆
    • Let large companies that are making money off selling kits do the preliminary engineering for you. If they all do -10, then that is all you'll ever need. 
    • Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.
    • At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!
