Congrats to Erin and team for a Very well organised day, the kids had a great time.

A shame about the yellow 33 running up the back of the the other 33 just infront of us. But other than that it went hassle free.

It was good to meet everyone esp hi to Afro love the 34 nice colour dude.

Luckily the drit road didn't go for very long (34 no like dirt).

Bring on MSC4

Cheers:cheers:

CYA34

Last cruise had 77 including 1 cefiro :D

There is going to be an article submitted by Dave/Andrew and I to HPI and QSC so we'll see what happens. Thanks to JustDave especially for his photos on the day :)

Yeh i was wondering about this, like having 85 skylines for a cruise isnt a good article for HPI etc :)

theres no good shots of all of us together though :)

Long as i get some coverage ill be happy! :headspin:

lol yeh i can drive manual too, auto aint so bad, i put alot of manual gtst's to shame

all those who have had to replace their clutch more than once in the last 6 months 'grunt' :kick:

Besides, a car should be looked at as a whole, not just its transmission :wassup:

maybe for the next msc you should try and get some hpi people to come along?

SAUWA was in HPI recently, nowhere in australia besides brissy do they have cruises with 80+ skylines, and im sure if there was word of HPI coming that the next MSC would quite easily surpass 100 :(

Yeah thanks Erin for a well planned cruise.

I thoroughly enjoyed the run, although I am suffering the consequences of not putting sunscreen on before getting to the lake - one half of my body is red and crispy, the other is white! :Oops:

The only downsides that I either witnessed or heard of:

- the unfortunate incident between the two Skylines - it made me want to cry and they weren't even my cars! Anyone got any pics of either cars? I didn't get to see the yellow Skyline up close, but from close inspection of the Gold Coast Skyline with cool tint job, it certainly wouldn't be looking pretty right about now (and neither will the bank balance!!!).

- the cunning tosser that thought he might be able to boost some wheels with all those Skylines around - WTF!!!

- seeing a fellow Skyliner being pulled over (and breathalised I think) on the way home

- losing all the Sunshine Coast cruisers and having to go home early :)

Perhaps the Sunshine Coast leg of the cruise could be planned ahead for those interested next time??

Other than that, I really enjoyed my first MSC - I look forward to the next one!

:(

    • ok so if i wanted to go 18's i would go for 8's  in front 30+ or 32+ off set at front and the back 9 would be ok? what offset should i aim for.. then can i do some  hunting for wheel rim choices..   
    • 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.  
    • 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?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • 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
