Time: 8:00pm

Place: Carindale Metropol

For those who don't know where the Metropol is, it's on the corner of Creek and Pine Mountain Rds, maps are here and here.

We will see how we go for time, and most likely leave for the coast about 8:30pm, and claim our little corner of BWCP when we get there :) Hopefully this week, it will be open! After which we can chat, take lots of pictures, do a few laps of cavill etc etc.

I highly recommend you get your hands on a UHF radio, as we will be using them to keep in touch :P For those of us who don't plan on doing much sleeping that night, we will most likely head back to brisbane and check out the usual haunts sometime around 12pm/1am, any excuse not to put our girls back in the garage.

If anyone wants to talk to me about this, PM me, grab me on MSN ([email protected]) or you can call/SMS me on 0403 830 571 (just keep in mind that I can't answer my phone while at work :D)

Ok, so I might as well make a dedicated thread about this, seeing as a few people have shown interest :) Basically I'd like to get together a group of fellow R34 owners (as well as anyone else who'd like to tag along :)) to have a meet & greet, then go for a cruise down the broadwater car park, and see how many beautiful R34s we can get in one place :D

Looking at the Metropol in Carindale as a meet spot for now (seeing as most people expressing interest seem to be southside), on the corner of creek rd & pine mountain. Most likely meet up around 8pm and hang out for a bit before heading on our way, there's maccas and I believe subway there for those who like to have their dinner around that time too :)

So if I could get you guys to post your interest, and of course, any suggestions if you feel there'd be a more suitable time/place for the meet, and hopefully we can iron out some details by next weekend :)

Definately would be willing to come along if I'm welcome. I have a 32 so be nice please.

I am a good source of information for anyone on the night and can help answer questions about mods or repairs if anyone should wish to do so.

Im not sure how to contact other R34 owners but I know there was a guy with a spoilerless R34 coupe (light greyish brown colour) on the Massive Skylines cruise, the green 4 door around Slacks Creek and a yellow one I saw at Autobarn Capalaba once. Also, in one of the other threads, theres a black sedan with chromies as well. If anyone knows them, try to get them to come along.

i'll cyas at broady...i have more than a few places that we could go down around gold coast area....and some half way to brisbane etc as well...it will be one of my last cruises before i lose my licence and sell my car so I want to make it memorable! Everyone come, not just 34 owners....if you dont want to go to bwcp as I know many of you hate it pm me and ill meet you on my way out to the alternate run after bwcp!!! ONE NOT TO BE MISSED EVERYONE BE THERE!

hope u dont mind firefrog but ive organised something to follow on from your thing at bwcp...as it im sure you'll notice on saturday it gets pretty boring there and after you do one lap of cavill your pretty much over it (because it takes about 1/2 an hour), so I have come up with a cruise for afterwards. I was going to organise something for this week anyway, you however beat me too it in a way with this r34 thing, so if you guys want to continue along with myself and the rest of the guys who come, it should make it even better. Cya saturday, Matt (33NIZ)

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
