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

nothign wrong with the 31s :( as chris said the 31s kept up well with alot of u guys, i think i kept upo well with a few guys. didnt want to go overboard , every bump i hit i culd feel another dint in my rims =[ bloody koni suspension is too stiff =[ i hope we have another cruise like this i loved it!

It was great to see all the cars keeping up with each other.... i found it a little scary to push further as the coilovers just don't do the job well on country roads.

Ended up going home early as i got lost and had no fuel.

Nice meeting Rob, Nick, Allan and others.

A few of you's told me my car was blowing smoke and stuff.... who were you's?

push - this is my last week at Primus :( hey i tell u what tho if ur in the city on thursday at around 5pm come to mensies tavern out the back of 500 collins cause we're having a piss up in my honour :D

yea dude, i'll try to pop in after work. where r u goin?

everyone’s in one piece and many front bars need a respray: D Lolz

I f**ked up my front bar when I did the u turn when we turned out of Megamart.

There was a car coming from the other direction so I had to quickly drive up a private driveway and then I heard the dreaded scrape F**k it.

Clarkey

Nice meeting Rob, Nick, Allan and others.

A few of you's told me my car was blowing smoke and stuff.... who were you's?

As I said to you when we pulled over at one stage I thought the smoke looked like it was coming out from under your car more than the exhaust. Maybe something leaking onto the exhaust. It was very spasmodic though which makes me think it was only something leaking onto the hot exhaust. But I may be wrong.

hehehe this cruise seems to be a great hit which is good cause im sure ash, snowy and james are looking fwd to planning the next ones.

for the guys whos cars were blowing blue/black smoke.... u will find that this is only when on the throttle hard in which case a large percentage of the time it will be because a car is running very rich.... especially if none of you have had your car tuned etc etc. Like my skyline when i first got it... it blew out heaps of smoke cause it was running rich... josies soarer does the same thing... Its only a bad thing when its white smoke :(

oh yeah and sorry to the guys behind us who might have noticed the hazards comin on :D everytime u use the right indicator about 1 min later the alarm makes the hazards go off lol

lol our group's CB's were goin nuts tryin to figger out why you always turned your hazards on, if you were trying to warn us, or you wanted to pull over or what? But u din have a CB so we couldn't ask u.

    • ok so if i wanted to go 18's i would go for 8's  in front 30+ or 32+ off set at front and the back 9 would be ok? what offset should i aim for.. then can i do some  hunting for wheel rim choices..    If i get this - will this fit all around: Size: 18 x 8.5 +37 - n what tyres size tyre should i get for front n back?  
    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
