Hey Boys,

I have bought an R32 GTSt Sedan a couple of weeks ago from the mainland, and i'm currently waiting to get it complied.

I've been trying to think where would be a good place to go for a cruise to get used to the way she handles and that sort of thing.

Where does everyone like to go cruising? Keeping in mind that i live in hobart.

Who are you kidding biatch, the only way you will know how that thing handles is when you hand the key's over too me for a lash :headspin:

I'll tell ya some good spots man offline and then i'll hook ya up out at the track so you can take it for a lash at basky if ya want :)

Well GrandmasterB, i think the closest you'll get to driving my car, is if i've died and you had to drive me to the morgue. :)

I'm sure we can work something out though. (with locations that is)

I'd be interested in a cruise with ya tim. few hours at basky would be good also as I havn't been out there yet.

Yeah man, we'll have to go for a cruise when i get it on the road JaFF. I'm praying that the seat belts come in today, so i can get the car to Griffo and get it complianced. Then i'll be a happy boy.

It's no good having it sitting there in that garage and not being able to drive it. :P

The Huon Highway isn't a bad stretch of road when it's not soaking wet... Hey mate I have a R32 sedan also, its a GTS-4 tho so will handle quite a bit different to yours. Would be nice to compare them.

Dude we may have to get together one day and have a look over them. See what we can see.

I'm sure a cruise day will have to be organised soon for all us skyline boys. Maybe a BBQ somewhere.

Like i said, drive it like you stole it dude. And after the shiat fight with the last one i built i think i'll just get the van and pimp that out for now??? Nothing over the top, maybe just a mid mounting 454 big block with a blower :flamed:

You shouldn't make fun of bloke like that anyway dude, you could give a guy a complex or something :headspin:

grasstree hill is a great drive...lots of twistes and the road condition is good

Bwahahahahaha i can't believe i heard grass tree and good road condition in the same sentence. Obviously never been over it on a bike hey Timbo, one small lack of concentration and it will :kick: straight in the nuts. You want twisty's thats always satisfiying go and buy the chips, you want a stretch of road that is like drving at the track then let me know :)

thats why I said good condition...good isn't excellent...there are better roads but grasstree is still a great hill for *Edited by Slaz*

Don't see your point here....One small lack of concentration in a car and you will be ****ed but thats what makes it fun...if you can't concentrate when you drive then catch a bus

If you think grasstress is bad then take a drive up to colebrook one day...great winding road but its bump steer city

**Please don't make references to illegal street activites (ie. drifting). Please read forum rules and thread in Tas section by me: "All Tasmanian posters please read". Thanks, Slaz**

      I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!

      Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.

      The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!

      The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
