So, for anybody who didn't go on this here's a pretty accurate summary of what I found at this cruise:

Arrived at carpark full of douschebags in utes throwing a bmx around.

Gold coin donation pretty much jumped on us. As a result, and the fact that I've never once actually read the map, we didn't get one; it's not that I mind donating, but I didn't actually have coins on me (this, I am well aware, is my fault).

Store attendands called police.

Everybody scattered, and I imagine 70+% of people went the wrong way.

We then drove most of the way to Brookton, down slow, boring, and just all round gay roads.

So, in essence, I drove at like 70kph halfway to Brookton, with a bunch of dickheads in falcadors, doing lots of skids, and then found out halfway there that the guy at the front, operating both a gps, and a map, and with a nagivator, didn't know where we were going...

On top of that, there were no stops and just one straight road people apparently 'go' at...

So essentially it was just like any other boring saturday night drive to Brookton, except slower, and with people complaining that going up hills at 90, in brand new cars, was too fast.

Don't know who posted this cruise, but seriously man... I respect that you ran one, because generally they're really cool. But I can drive to Brookton anytime I want, and last night certainly wasn't time to do it. Why did we need spare tyres? And food?.... And why was the map so secretive that you only released it that late? All that made this sound like some wildly exciting drifting event in the middle of nowhere, that was only for those hardcore enough. That, I was interested in going to, and watching people 'go'ing at.

When I ran my cruise, we did ok, and it was much more interesting, and I was still critisized for it. I imagine that whoever posted this got it from somewhere else, due to the large amount of falcadores there. And so to whoever wrote this silly, silly cruise:

Please, please, please... Tell us, precisely how gay it's going to be before we get there.

^ Thats why I didn't go. I took a look at how the OP types, how the meet point was decided too late etc... Figured it'd be a shitter and I didn't show. Wait for sau cruises or WCC (West Coast Cruisers) as they are organised well.

Serious? Man that's nasty... My friend in a 300zx mentioned something about a roo...

Lee I was going to come over to your car earlier, those red seats are sweet man!

Oh, and those WCC cruises sound really good. Feels odd talking about them on the Sau site though =D

    • New R34 owned here (from the US) and found a gem, '98 GTT with ~6k miles, super clean & completely stock. When shifting there's no grinding, shifts smooth, etc. The concern I have are 2 things: 1) Only in 2nd and 3rd... when maintaining a slower speed (in traffic as an example) as I let off/on the gas, the shifter will slightly move and vibrate. If the clutch is engaged, none of this happens. It's not bad, but enough to feel like something isn't necessarily right. 2) This mainly happen in 4th or 5th... the shifter slightly bounces up and down, almost like it's riding on unbalanced tires (and I do think the tires are unbalanced as I get a little of that bounce feel at higher speeds, which is maybe why it only happens in 4th/5th). Lastly, and sorry for this noob question but I want to work on this car myself, can someone teach me some on these manual transmissions? Like servicing them, best products to use, etc.; would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!
    • Coilovers aren't even the first step. Bushes, subframe position and alignment, HICAS elimination, adjustable upper arms and traction arms in order to dial out understeer. All these things need/deserve attention first. ARBs (There's no such thing as a swaybar. Please, everybody, stop calling them that) are useful if you want to limit spring stiffness. Otherwise you can control body roll with springs. Spring and damper rates are a function of road surface, speed and usage. There is no solution that works for all cases.
    • Define "nothing". Is the starter spinning but not the engine? Engine turning but not firing? If the engine is turning but not firing, then you are missing either fuel or spark. You need to find whichever has gone missing.
    • Shitbox Tiguan updates, got the APR OTS tune put back on (no charge for it to be removed/added back), didn't want to just come in just for that (not a fan of wasting people's time for nothing) so I purchased an APR dog bone insert. The boys at German Performance Garage said they would fit it for free too since they had 1x hoist free. Now that's service you don't normally get from most workshops. Anyhow, tune back on, snow grate pulled out, dog bone insert back in and not going to lie, a few smiles when I nailed it around the industrial area heading back onto the M7. Amayama also said 1 to 2.5 month wait for the RB25DE heater hose, yeah why not, car has been off the road for nearly 3, what's a other 2.5?
    • Hmm I'm going to approach this from the other side... What is the car doing that you don't like or what would you like the car to do that is currently isn't doing (handling wise that is)
