Hey guys,

I'm in a little car group which just started off as a bunch of mates from high school which has evolved into a group of about 40+ enthusiasts with cars ranging from skylines to supras to silvias to hondas and so on.

Each one of my close mates is in another more specific car group such as Supra Club Victoria and S-Chassis Club.

Just wanted to know if there was any skyline dedicated groups or clubs that have regular meets and/or cruises. I've been looking for a while and can't seem to find any at all.

If you are in a club and are looking to expend with new members then look me up on facebook or message me here.

If not, then maybe a few would like to get together a start a small local skyline enthusiast club.

Let me know!

Thanks.

Matt.

Good thinking, it's so hard to find a dedicated Skyline club, I mean there is only: Skylines Australia, SkylineOwners, R31 Skyline Club, Classic Skylines Australia and various GT/GTR based clubs. It's almost as if there was nothing out there!

Seriously though, we are running a whole lot of events this year, some open to anybody and some exclusive to members. If you want access to the best events, sign up as a member today! :D

LOL SAU Vic doesn't hold too many cruises but we do have monthly garage meets and various other events throughout the year. There are a few other branches of Skyline clubs in Melbourne, usually just started by a bunch of mates like you and your friends. It's much easier that way to organise things and there's no bureaucracy involved (such as having only paid members cruise due to insurance/CAMS issues). I know of a few GTR-only clubs in Melbourne but if you're after something more general, try JDMST. They have quite a few carpark meets and cruises.

Lol really?

We've already had this year GOR, go karts day, Marysville, dyno day, and coming up lakes entrance cruise, and its only may.

AND.. There are HEAPSSS more Events coming up soon!

Aaron there's only been GOR cruise and the Coffee and Cakes cruise. 2 cruises in 5 months. Last time I knew anythng go-karts day and dyno day weren't cruises. HOWEVER, I did mention that various other events were run throughout the year :)

Two cruises in five months are actually quite a bit for one club, especially with the cams insurance stuf we have to go through! My personal opinion, is that anymore than that and people just simply won't turn up, for the 400km that they might put on their car in a day..

My opinion anyway! As you said though, it's not just cruises we do HEAPS of other fun shit.

Coming up is a duck meet! ;)

Very true, though I've only been on the committee for like two months and now that the Dyno Day is long gone, I will aim to run monthly cruises and events. So there will be plenty of cool stuff coming up :)

Come along to the Lakes Entrance cruise next weekend, for a relatively boring run, it has more interest than I expected haha

Basicly a reply to all of the above posts;

I know i'm in SAU Vic. But it's not really "skyline dedicated". Everyone has a passion for one, etc. but what i was looking for it something alot SMALLER within SAU. A group i could call up and say 'hey let's hang out and talk shit about cars' and be able to meet them in 10 minutes sorta thing.

noone has really grasped what i wanted to achieve here, but thanks for the input!

Oh, everyone is generally like that. You can post up in the events section Last minute cruises or meets, and people will rock up..

Last week we wanted some food so a few of us got together and did just that

This kind of thing happens all the time. Go along to meets and make friends with people; get their numbers and organise last minute cruises on nights when you're bored.

That's what I did a few years ago. Had only been to one SAU Vic meet and not long after I found myself doing unofficial/private mountain runs with some of the regulars in groups of 5-10 cars every weekend. Bit old for that now :(

    • I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.

    • Our Southern Highlands Cruise is proudly registered with “R U OK?” Day.  Sometimes the best way to check in on your mates is by getting out for a drive together. Sharing a common passion like cars creates the perfect space to chat, connect, and support each other.  A simple “R U OK?” can make all the difference. Let's enjoy the drive, the company, and look out for one another. PLEASE WEAR YELLOW FOR “R U OK?” DAY Sunday 14th September 2025 9:30AM Meeting Crossroads Homemaker Centre 10:00AM Cruise Departure Via Old Hume Hwy 11:45AM Arrival at Mittagong RSL Club Meet Location: Crossroads Homemaker Centre Final Destination: Mittagong RSL Club *Disclaimer* There will be a lead and follow car so no one should get lost.

If this is what you want please come to one of our many track days. This is an official SAU:NSW event and will be run under a CAMS permit. One of the things that really sets our club apart is our commitment to being true enthusiasts. When on normal roads we strive to maintain good relations with the authorities as well as the public in general. When attending one of Skylines Australia NSW events please try to: • Be aware of surrounding environment and act accordingly. • Drive courteously on the state’s roads as a true enthusiast should. • Understand how important it is to maintain the good name of SAU NSW and thus, treat others accordingly. • Any misbehavior will not be tolerated and you will be asked to leave.
    • Yep, its been down for a while, as I understand it it will be back soon.
    • Yeah I also looked at Plazmaman, but, it ended up alot  cheaper getting black ones through EFI when you also added in the delivery cost
