I suspect that 95% of the cars attending this cruise will be yellow canary worthy........driving like a dumbass is the least of your problems if they cordon off the area and start popping bonnets one at a time >_<

This forum is looked at on a regular basis by SAPOL and now you've given them a place AND a time........hopefully they've been slack lately and aren't up to date with SAU.

The Club generally organizes cruises off the main forum.....hence why it's good to be a member! :yes:

Goodluck

The cruise is for skyline enthusiats and owners! Good way to meet new people, ask questions and see what ideas people have come up with! Not for people who wanna hoon around with there gtr badges stuck on there gt!

ns cruise???

Whats with the negative comments if your not interested or scared your gonna get a deffect don't come no one is forcing you! Hopefully the people who have mods on there car like boost controller etc were smart enough to install it where its not visible for cops to see! If your gonna get deffected they will deffect you on your way to work or a friends! Well it will be good to catch up with everyone who isn't afraid to leave there drive way!

lol but if they read this they'll just send someone that knows wtf to look for. not hard to spot mods. then again they will defect you for suspicion aswell or cause your car is too fully sick.

Yep, Sled and I have had it told directly to our faces by Stuart Mclean (the head of the bike cops in Adelaide), that they pay close attention to all car forums, including ours.

Also, I am not trying to scare you off by any means, but if anything happens on the cruise, YOU, BEN, will be held personally responsible by the police. They have been prosecuting the organiser of cruises if something goes awry.

They want us off the roads and to not congregate in groups. Fullstop. It doesn't matter how legal your car is, if they decide they don't like you or your group, they will lock down the carpark and go over you all car by car. I have had this done before on an NS cruise some years ago - 150 cars were checked vigorously for defects (and something like 30 were issued full Regency defects) - they blocked off both entrances of the Newton Shopping Centre carpark and it took some guys 4 hours on lineup to get out, while they checked each car out with a fine tooth comb.

As Sled said, if you want to join a respectable organisation that gets left alone by the cops because we do the right thing, then join up with sausa.com.au and come on our cruises. We have never had a single issue.

I've been on a NS criuse where this happened as well (8 or so years ago). Those of us who got away with zero regency notes were lucky enough to drive out of one of the car park entrances when one of the cops was presumabley needed elsewhere. Was a very painful night for many people.

On the topic of car parks i never understood why people organise cruises from public car parks? Bunnings, Big W etc... something to me always looked suss standing around a public car park even in the middle of the day. I always liked the beach meet points we use to use for our south cruises :P

As per above, first NS cruise (think it was combined NS/SAU cruise) we got cordoned at the airport look-out... thankfully was on the outside of this... but unmarked cars parked between us, then two cop cars pulled up at the exit...

Will see if can make the cruise either way :)

Haha, I think this was the one when I got one of my many "emit undue noise" fines in my pewter S15 for doing a 2nd gear standstill when leaving the carpark. Cops kept me there for 1.5 hours in the freezing cold while a Regency specialist was called out to try to defect my car - and they couldn't find a single thing - he even congratulated me on how nicely and legally modded my car was. Those were the days!

I remember parking my car at the back of the car park facing a overgrown bush to try a hide my c-west carbon bonnet (white R33)

Pretty darn lucky but it certainly sobered me up to the pains of car cruises.

Hey guys just for anyone who still hasn't seen!

Meeting point will be big w car park, Which is 366 goodwood rd, cumberland park! On the 24th wich is next saturday at 12pm :) looking forward to meeting you all!

    • 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!
