Hey Everyone,

I cannot believe GTCC turns 10 years old in March. Anyway we have always had an annual cruise so here it is again.

Said this time and time again, no reckless driving will be tolerated and please make sure your car is roadworthy.

Thanks

Brandon

Most likely means something that is not a death trap. :thumbsup:

The GTCC are much like SAU-Vic - respectable people, that behave and put safety first, ie not bringing a car that is dangerous to all round (poor tyres, brakes, loose body kit/parts etc).

I don't see a boost controller being a problem

Feel free to correct me should i be wrong Brandon :P

Good to see GTCC is 10yrs, i didn't even realise! I would have said about 7-8yrs hehe.

Yah you said it Ash, I can't believe 10 years already either, the first year it was mainly only friends only but we still did the Annual Cruise :P

By roadworthy vehicle I agree No Death Traps but also keep in mind that at any time police may check your vehicle. But in the 9 years, from memory we have only been checked once which was in Apollo Bay. The rest of the time the police stop to say hi and admire the cars and take some snaps with us.

Sam wrote a guide to Cruise Etiquette which is pretty good for anyone interested.

theres an SAUvic cruise on the same day i believe (it in our calendar) dunno which one to go to

I didnt know that. You have to support your club so you should go to SAUVic's cruise. :thumbsup:

Are they going to GOR too?

Hey Brandon, good to see GTCC is still around :thumbsup: Sounds like a great cruise.

Yes mate still around but we have been pretty quiet as of late. I honestly haven't had the time to organise anything.

Hey beefy I'm sure your off the evo oz forums seeing as the guys there go every year too. Was always meant to go down with my evo 7 but never had the chance to.

Yes I do particpate on Evo Oz Forums when time permits as they are a great bunch too. So you have a VSpec NUR now ? .. very nice. If you are free come for a drive.

yeah nah, lazy buggers haven't decided/released details yet, plus have a dyno day on the sat. our GOR is in april. Therefore i might rock up to your cruise

Yea i figured it was you from there. The GTR is on a whole new level compared to my evo but still drive it as more of my daily. Im pretty sure i will come to this!

Nathan: You know I am looking at returning back to a GT-R myself. Love the Evo but whenever I see a GT-R, I wish I was driving mine again. Have you seen Matt Tangs NUR aka TangoMatt, that car is awesome.

    • Put a fuel pressure gauge on it. Replace the turbos. Probably completely separate issues.
    • What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.
    • Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!
    • No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
