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.

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

    • Hey keep the ideas coming, I'm always keen on projects! But, problem fixed!  I got a cheapie ozito scope from Bunnings and had a good look in and around the bearing and sensor hole. I couldn't see a smoking gun but the bearing looked a bit strange, especially when comparing with a new one. I thought the cover had come off the bearing magnets.  Sorry for pics of a screen, I didn't have an SD card.     Good thing I had the old one to inspect. So, given I'm like a pit crew with wheel bearings and luckily I had a spare bearing because I f**ked up my parts order, I decided to just smash it out. Got the old one out in about an hour. So much easier when the parts haven't had a chance to rust together yet. 😂 And, well, found the problem.    In the second pic at about the 8 o'clock position, you'll see what I think is the tip of the old sensor.  The new sensor has definitely been rubbing but it's all intact, just a little shiny so I'm hoping it's fine.  The car brakes perfectly now and no errors.  I think the job took about 2.5h in the end. 👍🏻 I really appreciate the help in here as usual. Thanks guys.
    • I was only looking because I saw some drops on the ground but it wasn't alot. Recently had it serviced will ask the mech to confirm. Find it strange that it looks standard though, can see in another photo of a random box 
    • So...not sure if you know if that has always been there or why you went looking. It could be old damage from a clutch explosion, or even just the gearbox got dropped somewhere along the line. Basically, you should seal it up to stop oil and dust getting into the bellhousing, but it doesn't matter too much and is not structural. I'd suggest something like a glob of JB Weld. BTW what gearbox oil are you running, I would guess the breather has been spewing it everywhere.
    • Hey Duncan thanks for your reply. Sorry mate I know the photos are shit.  Took another photo for reference. Seems the casing does have a hole in it looking on the net, fluid seeping out. Added a photo   
    • Very hard to make out what you mean, is it the squarish hole with redline shockproof (probably) under it? Is that pic from on top of the engine with the firewall to the left of pic and engine to the right? Either way, spray the area liberally with degreaser and try again, maybe circle the part you are worried about
