After speaking to a few people today, we've decided there will be no video of this cruise at this time.

There isn't enough footage to put something decent together, so we'll use parts of it in a compilation later. Or just the dirt section to placate Glenn :P

Agreed...despite the stagea's reputation, the genuine cruise objectives and mature behaviour, it would be a media frenzy at the moment.

"the OLD peeps"

So I take it the footage from the camera on my car was not able to be salvaged? Hope you didnt go to much trouble trying to put a video together just to have a couple of wankers spoil it for us.

I have only just caught up with whats going on with this whole tunnel race thing, I didnt see the video till this morning but spent all last night at work copping shit from my workmates for "being a hoon" just cause i drive a Nissan. "No" I said, "it wouldn't be a SAU member, we're far more responsible than that!" Can't wait to see what they've got for me when I go to work tonight (especialy the guy with a subaroo outback) Thanks alot guys :spank:

Except that two of the people are SAU members (or is it were by now?).

The camera position in Billy's car was crap, but your footage was alright. Like I said, after a few cruises I might put together a compilation, but need more background/social footage I think, and less driving, which the media wants everyone to believe is always 'anti-social hoon behaviour'.

I hadn't started the video yet, just reviewed the footage. I am tempted to put the dirt road stuff up for shits and giggles though!

An extremely exhilarating video of volvos driving at 20kmph attempting to avoid pot holes :worship:

exactly, and then we can show the media that weare responsible drivers, we don't even get to the speed limit.

it'd prob be twisted tho. "a group of 20 nissan volvos destroying the parklands, here they can be seen in the wilderness searching for some animals to harm with their loud exhausts and spacious interiors!"

LOL oh no wait maybe not lol knowing channel no. 10 they'd probably do that!

Hey ryan if you really want to make that dirt road video interesting i got some footwell action taped also...

Then again maybe not: "a group of 20 nissan volvos destroying the parklands, here they can be seen in the wilderness searching for some animals to harm with their loud exhausts and spacious interiors, and as the video continues, one passenger is trying to film a drag race (probably on a nature strip) but the driver was going that fast that he could only film the footwell. Shortly after the video ends sources say he ran up an embankment to hit bambi and flipped the car onto its roof"

To clear things up fellas, there were certain SAU-SA members in the "tunnel drag race". The SAU-SA committee (including myself as Club Secretary) has discussed disciplinary action, and action has been taken. I am also the founder of this club, and we've put alot of hard work into this over the last 2 years or so, and its quite disappointing that such an act was filmed then hosted where the media could get a hold of it. The media and police scan these forums constantly, so please be aware of that when filming or even just discussing anything.

Our dyno day this saturday has been cancelled thanks to the fallout from this. There has been alot of discussion about it in the SA forums, but you've no idea the damage control and calls with SAPOL we've been doing to sort this out and keep the club's reputation.

:thumbsup:

It is all very sad indeed....we all make mistakes ! I don't condone their actions but suddenly the whole world (incl import drivers) are full of drivers who have never committed a breach of the Road Traffic Act. You are right though Ruby people only remember us by our mistakes.

+11ty to that, well said.

we've all done silly stuff, some more than others. I can't imagine where i would be if mobile phone cameras were so rampant 15 yrs ago when i was alot younger and alot dumber.

I want to say thank you to those involved in setting this cruise up , and every one else who attended. It was my first stag cruise which i was made to feel welcome buy some cool peeps.

It was made good by a bunch who loved their rides and not them selves.cant wait for the next one. Cheers to every one there!

some pics you might wanna see:

PS. sorry about the delay but i have just come out of two weeks of hell. (sick and teething 18mth twins + sick pregnant wife who at the same time gives her self a hernia, jumping up to a puking child , and her migraine still persists, and im also bed ridden with flu if i was allowed to lie down. .) father hood moments for cherishing. and she wonders why i have the need for spirited Sunday drives at the track.

Hey chopps might not be the best idea to post pics of us parked in disabled parking spots what with the bad publicity nissans have been getting in S.A. media lately jk

I can only imagine the story they could spin up lol

love the pics tho

um errrrrr..........

not that i remember maybe you should check the footage from the camera you had on my window, no wait that footage was mysteriously corrupted hmmmm :ph34r:

    • 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!
