ferni: Yeah i actually noticed that myself....might look into some kind of brace/support bars at either end....i dunno....saw a few nice flames from MSPEC....and from sitting behind him you almost dont notice that huge wing cauz it lines up perfectly with the roof line an pillars...lol...then he turns a corner an you couldn't miss it!!!

if we could get a group buy on custom made carbra's I'd be in for sure!! mine would be the same as an R33GTR, but theres so many different style fronts out there, they'd have to be made to suit

I say get over it you cant point the blame, chances are no matter who you were following you would have coped a beating. When you go those speeds you have to cope the consequences. Ferni flicked heaps at me but I am not going to blame him because who ever was behind me would have coped the same shit. There was gravel on the road at a lot of places. Next time the organizers should get some road cleaners to go over our route first :(

It don’t cost much to fix the front bar anywayz. Eric at Paint Pro Works does my bar for $200 and usually does the stone chips on the hood for free, good guy!

hehe yeah i was following up towards the winery behind u and i couldnt care less... then again its my gfs car lol

but yeah it happens... i remember my line on the GOR cruise over a year ago got hammered cause me and jack in his GTR were having a bit of fun on the way back :(

lol no i was hanging back cause there were 4 other cars WELL behind us... i was trying to keep in between u and them so I could see u and THEY could see me :(

that fat boat of a car is pretty damn quick all things considering... she can hold her own ground :D

That was a great day, Thanks for the orginazer ;P and hopefully will have another one soon. How many of you did the jump in the afternoon? I m talking abt the 4 wheel in the air at 100km plus jump in the 2 line country road. I remember i was the 1st lead and the R31 race car following me:P

MSPEC: yeah for sure....nice photo to compare...lol....but i still think yours has a couple of inch's on mine :( looks sweet as!!

as for the stone chips....i dont think anyone is really pointing blame (appart from one post i read i think?) jus pointing out that fact that next time we have to be a bit more careful, or get some form of prevention....alaa car bra's. I dont think a cruise where everyone was spaced 15-20 car spaces apart would be much fun, an can always remove the bra's for photos...look nice an clean too!!..lol

    • 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
