I dont think we should have any type of holden period. This just being me and not liking them at all. I think with other cars it should depend on what were doing on the cruise ie. mountain run or just normal cruising on back roads etc thus the faster cars dont get stuck behind someone who cant simply keep up.

I was planning on having a field day with this thread, but I wont.

Short and sweet IMHO –

Nothing Australia full stop. (Except aussie spec skylines)

Only a hand full of none import Nissan cars invited. Example; Supra’s Porsche’s etc.

Cars that are none Nissan (that are invite only), should ONLY be a performance import, or some form of a euro sports car.

Your $250 daily driver is not welcome, if your nice import is off the road, don’t come to a cruise.

People who are rednecks should also be not welcome IMHO. I don’t associate with rednecks in my own time, and I don’t wish to associate with them in a car club.

My $2 for now.

Ok then, Ska looks like your organising next week's cruise cause I'm certanily not comming. I would say some other stuff too but I really don't see the point. *closes SAU window* :wavey:

Boo Hoo...

God damn... Add your point of view... You might be suprised what sort of discussion it provokes... I know of quite a few active members who want you to stay...

I'm against it to be honest... I think you would be better suited to qldstreetcars or boostcruising IMHO...

Strutto is right, add your view. This is a forum, where opinions and views are posted.

Even the name of the club makes it blatantly obvious we are a model-specific community. FFS if we organise an event as part of Skylines Australia, is it that unreasonable to expect a large majority of participants to be driving Skylines?

If someone tried to bring a Falcon to an organised meeting of a Commodore club, or an Excel to a Street Machine meetup, they would more than likely be told to go their own way (perhaps not in those words). I think the fact that we, as a community, are even discussing this shows the open-mindedness of the group as a whole.

Im an active member "i think" Phatmirage in my opinion and others that are enthusiasts should be aloud to, yes there is a point and yes maybe not on the huge skyline cruises but thursday night meets whats the problem? I have nothing but respect for Phatmirage in particular as this guy has to be able to drive to be able to keep with us on some of the runs we have done and that car surprised me, it goes awesome. Just my 2 cents i suppose wether that counts or not i dont know, but personally were performance car enthusiats and all share a common passion.

Exactly - I think the best solution lies in not trying to make blanket rules to suit every situation (speed limits anyone?), as a few people, myself included, have mentioned a few times previously. Some cruises will be Skylines only - if it ain't a 'line, it ain't coming. Other cruises would certainly be more lenient. I suppose how we treat a particular cruise would depend on whether it's purely a social thing or whether there is a bit of showcasing the club happening too. What's the point in having a Skyline club if you don't need a Skyline for some events?

But yer, I'm stuffed, going to sleep now :P Behave kids :)

You may want to re-think that one. What about finical members once it’s up and running? They may have sold there skyline/buying another or even wish to drive another import he/she may own. I think saying to finical members “piss off” your not coming to a skyline only cruise if they wish not to take there skyline, or may not even have one for above reasons is a bit silly.

      Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
