Official Cruise: 24.04.04 Macedon (PICTURES)


Recommended Posts

That was one of the all time best cruises!!

A BIG thumbs up to Ash, Andrew and James. The route was exceptional and the maps very detailed. If only i could follow it and look where i am going, that way i would not cause 13 cars to double back :(.

As Shivam stated, we continued the day with alot of drinks at the pub and didn't get home till 4:30am. Thus far i have not even looked at the pics on my digi!

more cb's indeed... me n ash thought it got a lil crowded n hopped on channel 14 for a while.

CB's are a must coz ts like open comedy channel. free to air kerpaal.

I'm annoyed I couldn't make this cruise (or any cruises in the near future), cause it looked like it was a good turnout and plenty of fun. Think I might whore a ride for the next cruise if possible (suspended license) *hint*, as it looks like it was a well organised run.

I wouldn't mind organising another one, or at least helping organising one, as I've got a few nice ideas if anyone's interested.

However I reckon the weather in Melbourne is going to be fairly crappy over the next few months, although it can be more fun/dangerous in the wet ;p

Man what a cruise...!! I left just before that mass group photo was taken grrr..

I had an awesome time as I was in the first group and up with the first pack of about 7 cars... my 31 and the rest where GTR's and a GT-T! I was very happy that I managed to stick up with them and man did we go hard... I even lost 2 GTR's who where not keeping up with us :(

Tremendous job by James, Andrew & Ash.. thanks Ash for leading us the wrong way on the way to the winery :)

Good to finally put some names to faces but still only met probably 1/8 of the people who rocked up..

Look forward to the next one..

Pretty much man....

I think we interpretated the speed signs a little uncorrect...

:(

Was mad to go for such a fang... im just stoked that I was keeping up with all these GTR's :)

The way me and Ron kept up in our r31's... and I know Ash and acsplit where belting it hard too... you cant give us 31 drivers a hard time... :D

btw sorry on the crest parts where i was infront of a bunch of you and it turned into a one lane 2 way road i was going to try to pull over but going [the speed limit] in a thing thats heavy on the arms and has killer weight issues on the back on a road with dirt on either side would of been a tad awkward

next time i will have the line

yes but r31's still look like shoeboxes no matter what speed they were goin at :(

BTW keep mentions of speeds down fellas, we don't wanna give a bad impression

In the first section at the base of a hill I managed to bottom out on something. The two R33 GT-Rs (CR3ATION and ALSGTR?) behind me were showered with sparks. :Oops:

I managed to make it all the way home with 1/4 tank too... James, I'm rubbing it in again :(

Oh and Dox, I was sitting behind you for that single lane section, but wasn't itching to get past. Thanks for pulling over at the right hander though, but the winery was only a couple of kilometres down the road.

yes but r31's still look like shoeboxes no matter what speed they were goin at :(

BTW keep mentions of speeds down fellas, we don't wanna give a bad impression

Yeah I was hesitant to mentoin anything about speed... I'll edit that post now..

Shoeboxes?!?! Well in that case, how do you feel getting owned by a shoebox? hehehe joking :)

A big thankyou to everyone that came along. I had a great day :)

Weather held off and the turnout was fantastic. The positive feedback encourages us to continue to try and provide more days like this.

:(

I couldnt agree more.

As long as everyone has a great day, then it definately makes the planning etc worthwhile!

Now, onto planning the next cruise.

I think SAU-Vic is fast becoming one of the best cruise clubs in Vic.

so thanks to all of you guys that rock up as you make the day!

Had a ball as always. So many new members it great too see (sorry i didnt get around to everyone)

As far as things are concerned everyone did the speed limit, everyone arrived safely, everyone’s in one piece and many front bars need a respray: D Lolz

Hahahaha, keeping up the public relations is always a good idea Rob. On a slightly different tangent, is there official memberships for SAU and/or SAU-VIC. As I haven't been active on the forums for a while, I remember something mentioned about SAU/CAMS affiliation...

Guaging from the turn-out, it's definately looking to be one of the best cruise clubs in VIC, and I can't wait to get involved!

Yes There is atm a official SAU-VIC club being setup and it shouldnt be too long before its all organised, pretty much as soon as its up and running everyone will know & no one will miss out (nothing to worrie about) as with CAMS etc there will be a option for the through the Nissan Datsun Sports Owners Club (NDSOC) that memeber will be able to sign up though SAU-VIC. All in time pretty much...

Thanks for the photo oak...but i think the last count on the way home it was 5 to 4...MY WAY........I think also my front bar is due for a respray now after that cruise...i think i need to fix the chips on the windscreen as well.. anyone else cop rocks on the windscreen!!haha

Good day..thanks to everyone who organised it

hey Al and Shivram...thanks for the invite..just kiddin

    • Yeah good luck out there! Will be good to see a mighty GTST going harder than the GTRs
    • i will be there 😁
    • 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! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
