All good suggestions.

Maybe just a club bbq once every month or so on say a sunday, to encourage new members and get to meet and greet.

If there are going to be a formal structure, some sort of idea of when official meetings, and how others can participate if they need to, and participate in the organisational structure, etc.

And maybe the next Massive skylines cruise should start to be organised? Its almost been 6months, we should make it a twice yearly event

Track days are a must, but kept to the cooler months. Other tracks such as Morgan Park and Darligton Park are excellent venues as well. Did a track day at Darligton Park last Sunday and it offers good value for heaps of track time. Although my brakes are feeling it now....hehe....

And don't forget the skidpan/LMVA days.....

I think it would be a good idea to tie a MSC in with a charity drive and maybe a concourse as well.

It always good to give back to the community and help the underpriviledged or disadvantaged out.

Also good advertising for the club too and lets people know that we aren't all just mindless hoons :cheers:

At the risk of starting a shitfight (which is not my intention)...

I'd really like to see some more involvement from the club execs at events organised by non execs... IE: Massive Skyline Cruises, Willowbank nights, Dyno Days, Thurs nights, etc... I just get the feeling the execs hearts aren't in it anymore although I do appreciate the efforts they have all made over the past few years...

I'd really appreciate some more transparency in how the club is run... At the moment, nothing much seems to get discussed between the members of the club / forum before the execs decide on it... Even a monthly meeting minutes post would be nice... Or an open invite to a meeting...

Who are the execs anyway? Slip = president (for now)... Gary1 = ??? Revhead seems to be involved a bit and does a good job IMO... How does he fit in? Are there any others? Who is the treasurer, who is the secretary, who is the events coordinator?

Not a rant BTW... Just some feelings / thoughts I've had for a while...

I will be doing a scouting day sometime soon in regards to the third Massive Skyline Cruise. I'm thinking of heading up north, a nice drive through a few mountains and then out to one of the dams for a BBQ lunch and an afternoon of fun and shenanigans. I've also been approached by a photographer for one of the car magazines to do a story on the next Massive skyline cruise.

I'd like to also have it as a donation to charity cruise as well. I'd personally prefer it was the Cancer research fund as I've had one person this year pass away of cancer and my grandfather is currently fighting cancer. But obviously closer towards the date and when more organisation goes in, I'll ask for preferences to which charity people would prefer.

If you are interested in helping scout the run or have any suggestions on a nice leisurely drive + bbq spot, please PM me and provide further details.

Im just curious about how slip's replacement will come about?? will we nominate then vote or will it just be one day "hey heres the new president"

Normally at one of the monthly meetings, the members would get to vote as to who they want as a replacement and the majority gets voted in.

But why did slip (and others) do all the hard work and then want to relinquish his position? That bit confuses me.

more than happy to help out erin

also if we are going to meet at mercury motorsports every 2 weeks then one of the meets at MMS should be a club meet where we can discus things and vote on changes and organise charity days and another massive skyline cruise

      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
