I get my liscense back on September 17th and I would like to organise a Skyline cruise the following weekend, on Sunday the 26th of September. I have a good idea of where to go i just would like to see whos interested, hopefully we can get some big numbers. Anyway id like to get quite a few people so who is interested, i know its a few months away but the sooner its organised the more people.

EDIT 21st September:

Well what I had in mind was for everybody to meet mid morning at Harbour Town, then from there a cruise to Hinze Damn (i know its been done buts its just perfect for a photo shoot) from there down the M1 highway to Coolongatta then up the Gold Coast Highway back to Macdonalds Loders Creek/Southport. Thats just my idea, any suggestions would be great. Thanks

its a good idea.. i do hate to sound critical but on the last day hinze dam thing.. its definitely not a great idea during saturday or sunday night family "oh lookie, its sunny lets go for a drive to hinze damn" .. when every man in their dog is. Last time it worked, but only just and only due to a bit of luck more than anything else.

and McDefect? does nissan or somebody have shares in maccas ? again not the best place and many would agree.

anything else though.. a day cruise is a good idea to organise it - go for it :(

Thanks for the tips guys. Ok so its sounds like nobody is keen on Maccas (or McDefect lol) so we will scrap that part. I do like the hinze damn part though because it adds a touch of hinterland driving to the cruise. So can i get an idea of what sorta number there will be attending and what you guys think the route should be?

    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
