Sorry I couldn't continue for most of the cruise, but newborns tend to limit free time! Glad I was there to meet and greet peeps, and give the V's some representation! Definitely getting my day pass f

Great day guys. Matt, you finally brought the beast down! Terry it's your turn next.

I just realised why so many SAU followers aren't coming... I think they're waiting on the stickers Terry???

Hahaha

533 RYC; PKE11Y and GTR034 - went on a back of pack solo cruise. Pushed hard to catch (whilst observing all requisite [not required] road laws) and could make out Matt's tail lights on the horizon lol. It was a bit like exit pit lane from the railway tracks lol. Fun though and thanks 533 RYC for letting us cut in at the rail tracks.

Had a great time out guys.

Nice to catch up again and got a new place to add to the map lol.

Yes agree fast paced today.

Few people got left back.

Maybe should invest in some walky-talkies/cb radios for next cruise.

Will be looking forward to the next event :)

Too eletis for me these days, was not worth the two hour drive to get to the servos.

Used to be very friendly and fun.

Won't bother waisting my petty on a race, err cruise again.

I don't know what happened, but I never got an impression of elitism.

I've been cruising for eleven years with sau,up till now never mattered what you had

But today I noticed how things have changed, as I said before people know where you come

From and treat you accordingly, they can find a car wash to wash there car next time. :-)

There were spots where people went a little quick, but we are all in performance cars. Regardless of law's, this is the type of car owner you are associating with. If you are uncomfortable with the speeds others are doing, Don't do it. I was certainly not the fastest around (You and I are in the same car), I only drove to what I was comfortable doing.

Sorry you felt you couldn't do the same.

P.S. this wasn't SAU, if it were, many wouldn't have been doing what they were doing.

A good day out today, thanks to James for organising the event.

I apologise (to the extent to which I'm responsible, anyway), for the pace early on. It was apparent to me that there was a miscommunication regarding who was actually leading the group (Terry or myself) and after Terry pulled over at Glenbrook and most of the group appeared to follow him off (and after calling to confirm that Terry was under the impression / had been told he was leading) I decided to take off and have a bit of the road to myself, because at least I know this corner of the earth. I wasn't expecting everyone to be following me from Glenbrook onwards. Up until that point on the M4 I was doing at or below the limit to ensure everyone was nice and close.

*Anyway*. With regard to the rest of the day's pace, to be fair, we covered 280 kilometres all up. This also included no fewer than six waypoints / destinations along the way. Think about that! From Rhodes, to the twin servos, to Echo Point (three sisters, where there was no way we could park 20 cars in the vicinity) to Govett's Leap Road, Govett's Leap lookout, Megalong Valley tea rooms, to Bell via Mount Vic and then via Windsor Road to Victoria Road and finally RibTerranean. All in all, besides great food, cars and company, we also took in some amazing roads and were utterly spoiled by the weather. These roads included Cliff Drive from Leura to Echo Point then back to the highway; Govett's Leap road and lookout at Blackheath (with a simply amazing view over the Blue Mountains), Megalong Valley Road (despite some sharpish dips / undulations, an utterly incredible drive anyone who did it would agree); to Darling Causeway and Bells Line of Road through Bilpin and down past the lookouts at Bellbird Hill. Finally (for those who could make it), great food and service at RibTerranean Balmain.

Taking all that into account, I don't think anyone who did the whole thing could really rate the event as anything but a brilliant day out and above expectations for a club cruise.

Please bear in mind I was not an organiser of this cruise and was just along for the ride like the rest of you!

Edit: Great job on the pics so far guys, keep them coming.

Was also great to meet old faces and new - Pete, SammyD, Travis, Raj

      From Japan and back to Europe, my sh*tbox R34 GTT

      By GoHashiriya · Posted

      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.

      WTB R34 GTR Guard Liners

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      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?

      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
