Just a note to a VERY FEW new people, as they left the carpark (Ash feel free to edit or delete if i'm out of line)

Nothing our members hate more than dip-shits trying to do burn-outs as they leave the meet. If only you could hear our comments as a few of you left the carpark, i'm sure you would not do it again. If you want to be a "hero", do it away from club members and not at club meets. If we have unwanted attention because of your bullshit, i'll be all to happy to pass on your number plate details to the cops.

yeah thats whats Deca is for, i copped a face full of exhaust from that tool in the s15. :P

didnt see the other idiots leave, as i already left.

Big thanks to Wayne for organizing it, and another big thanks to Ash for taking over as Wayne couldn't make it.

great to see a massive turn out of well behaved skyline-r's

twist's where mad fun, apart from body roll and weight shift haha, but as for bumps and potholes .... stock suspension FTW! and only used half a tank!

oh damn! must be the extra weight the stagea has.

was that you on the CB complaining about the bumpy roads Julz ?

My stag is pretty good on fuel... Have you done dump/front/cat?

Mostly stock ftw. Although with the exhaust mine runs 12PSI untuned and pretty rich, it still doesn't do too badly on fuel.

I had a load of people yelling at me to do a burnout when I left. Do they think I'm stupid?

I used only 1/4 of a tank, shouldn't have filled up at the start lol

I prefered Yarra Blvd over Sunbury to Cambellfield, the roads were a lot smoother, because at one point on the way to Cambellfield, I think my car started bunny hopping for a bit lol :P

Awesome cruise guys and really impressive to see everyone behave themselves too. The trip from sunbury to campbellfield made my realise that I desperately need some upgraded suspension. Body-roll city!

Well done to organisers and fellow members. Was good to meet Charles, Zaver etc and catch up with some of the regulars as well. Can't wait to see some pics.

See you all at the next meet!

Awesome cruise! Good to see old faces and new. :P Really good night apart from getting lost a few times lol, but I realized I need to stop buying cars and invest in some much needed suspension. :P Only used 1/2 tank from the old girl, not bad.

Ash/Ron you can have power and economy :yes:

I only used less than a 1/4 tank and you both know my car ain't shy on power ;)

I usually get about 520km to a tank, and that includes either a spirited cruise, DECA day, etc. :(

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Waders360 · Posted

      I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way

      This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.

      Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.

      To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all

      300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
