Great Cruise Guys, :rave:

Reminds me of the good old Dawn Run, it was great to see so many people enjoying the Mountain, I was surprised we didnt get a visit from the local constanbulary.

Thanks for allowing a Rotary in the mix, the SKYLINE was out of Rego!

Heres are few pics

Hahaha I Think I Was Following You Back Through Bells Line Rd ...hahahaha I Was In The R34

Good Day Had By All .

Yeah,

It was a great run home, I had my mate driving who couldnt believe the corner speed you can carry in an RX8, he kept backing off and all he could here from me was "Keep you foot into it and you will be surprised", it took him a while to get used to the cars phenominal handling capabilities.

The R34 looks tough, and sat thru the twisties pretty flat, see you next time

Hey,

Good to see a couple of you SAU guys joining the SNSW Bathurst cruise. I hope you all enjoyed the day, it was nice to meet those of you who attended.

It was nice to see a good turn out of cars, i think we counted near the 50 mark when we hit the mountain.

Anyhow, we should be organising another major cruise in the next 4 months or so, keep your eyes open and i hope to see you guys on our future cruises.

Regards,

Dean

    • Hey everyone. Is there a way I can get the original window sticker (maroney label) for my 1995 R33 GTST? I doubt I’ll be able to ever get it but it’s worth a shot to ask
    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
