You can usually pick the corners in the nasho by looking at them as you approach and keeping an eye on the speed signs, careful of the low speed corners tho the 35s and 45s because they vary a lot, one 45 corner might be alright, the next might be worse than some that are marked 35.

Keep an eye out for cares coming the other way too, that and wild life is probably the most sketchy part.

Just got home, helps when you only live 10mins away from tthe nasho park turnoff. Great cruise, must have been about 40 cars there. All went well despite some early attention from from the cops at Kirrawee, apparently they ran my number plate through their computer but as car business registered they got zip. I was in the pearl white 4 door R33. My first cruise with you guys but definitely not the last. When's the next one??

yeh that was my first cruise with the boys/girls..

had a good time apart from nearly taking out the railing on the last bend....

meet afew of the people on here aswell...i'll see you all on the next cruise!

Guys post of some of those photos that were taken, especially the big group photo at kirawee!

Had fun as well pity noone could understand the meaning of NOT EVERY1 IS READY!

Me and dan and some others were left behind because of some hasty retreating . Solo run for us was fun.

Meet up point was a nice lookout but thats about it.

Good too meet some new faces, Big HELLO to Daniel and Jerry and the rest of the crew that i spoke to .

Finnaly made it home in ONE piece!

P.S That R32 GTR was having a bad day i think cause he nearly killd himself , Bloody HooNs :)

the night was good, for once my bleed valve decided to give me full boost(only 10psi anyway) also cold air so the car was going great, lots of people too always good! i hope to see some pictures from the people who took them soon..

good news, no clouds and the roads are sweet! see u guys soon! :D

where the hell were you1!! we were trying to figure out who you were!!! we obviously didn't!! :) did you even turn up1?!?!?! :)

hey all!!! nice to meet some of you!!! the roads were awesome!!! all dry!!! not even any oil to make it slippery!!! the most there was, were two wet spots that i saw and that was it!!! bonus! ;)

It was good to see the cruise went through mainly uneventfully, and that everyone got home in one piece!! the only downside, was danny in the white gtr.. he got a SPANNER!!!!!!!!!!! yes i spanner, embedded into his tyre! : not sure how that happened, but luckily that was it!! after waiting for an hour and a half for NRMA, he arrived to tell us we'd be better of getting a tow truck!!! we bailed at that stage!!!! hope you got home ok dan, and that it wasn't toooo $$$$$ :(

seeya next time peeps!

    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
