thanks for organising it mate :D was fun... just gotta try and meet some ppl next time.

I was wondering when we went through mornington why no one was hanging out on the street watching... cos we were there about 20 mins before everyone else..

we certainly put on a show in frankston. I know when we did a u turn at the lights that all of the cars that made it through really hung it out... to the delight of on lookers :P

If you are talking about the GTR with the Black 17' Impul wheels

it was me... otherwise if it was the one with the std wheels it was Ula32.

I was the car in front of Leewah (actually Gerald was driving Leewah 's car at the stage) on the way up Arthurs seat.. damm, now that was fun :P

Yeah i saw your car but didn't see you walking about at the meeting points.

Ula32's car was a monster, Ula32 you know why?? (R34 ring a bell)

glad that everyone enjoyed the cruise hopefully next time, the club will be all organised and and have a local one, for you guys.

yah that was me :D

we gotta meet up again in the day or something as i got to the pits late and it was dark so it was hard finding anyone there. the next meeting point was cool (except for cops) and i got to meet up with the mine's gtr and we stuck with him the whole night heh.

yeah, I was in front in silver series II r33 followed by the mines gtr then the wide guard silvia, then you must've been behind them cause i think there were a couple more skylines behind them.

I'm the guy that was next to the mines gtr when we stopped incorrectly on the last meeting point then went to the correct one.

well i had my first cruise!! it was really cool, i agree we need to have a meet with at least a few less people, as when you dont know anyone in the first place, its kinda embarressing going up and asking ppl, are you on te skyline board etc hehehe

i have pics, but will get them developed in next day or so, got some nice ones i think

good to meet(after many nockbacks lol) iNark and Dave and a dude that hasnt posted here yet apparently Dorbit or something

cheers brad :P

I was in a group of skylines from the frankston stop untill close to arthurs seat....Who were you guys?? we were stuck behind some guy towing a boat on a 1 lane road for a bit....and we stopped at BP. That was quiet a nice cruise up...I was astonished at the speed of a purple GTR that was with us...O M G, respect!

I would just like to say a big thank you to the organisers (Mznizmo and skyline33!!) for such an awesome cruise, my first one and it couldn't of been better. Loved it!

I was Gardo's passenger and that run with the Skylines was awesome, what a mad site it was seeing all those skylines and all great guys too! That purple GT-R was crazy! He planted it in front of us and just ran away soooo fast.... wicked! :P

When we told my brother about the cruise he was pissed he didn't come, and especially when he saw that there we're a few R31's he wouldn't of felt so alone lol! As he has a 31. :D

    • Damn, some awesomeness in there. What is the car with the Mk2 golf front, is it a Polo?  I'm in love with the C110. 😍 Some cool grafts, like the Lancia Jimny (?).
    • Turbomachinery engineers. They're just mechanical engineers who generally studied in universities focused on oil and gas, aviation or that had a formula SAE competition team. We have an entire team of them in our engineering department... they geek out over data and performance testing. I worked with them a lot when we developed an anti surge system for centrifugal compressors ran by electrical motors (~20 000-50 000HP) to avoid surging on accidental power loss.  They laugh when I mention automotive turbochargers.... it seems they're lightyear's behind in technology due to poor funding. If you think formula 1 spends a lot of money, a single turbine/centrifugal compressor package in my line of work including the balance of plant equipment generally ranges in the 150-250Million range depending on size.   
    • The diff brace did not increase NVR at all. And yea the whole reason I thought getting the rear diff brace was a no brainer was because of the reduction in wearing the bushings out + wheel hop. It's a cheap mod for a big cost mitigation in the long run. I bought it for $99 USD + shipping. In regards to the sway bar - i had some over/understeer going on but i just checked my tires and they are pretty worn out. I wont be changing them til july since i'm away for work for a month or so. will sort it when i get back and do more testing. But its definitely still a big thumbs up from me given how planted the car feels now and me being able to go around corners quicker. Still puzzling to me why they never put a LSD into these cars....even the 400z. I saw this mob selling LSD kits for a decent price though it's a little more involved on your part to get it installed: https://www.tractionconcepts.com/Infiniti-Q60-R190-Limited-Slip-LSD-Rear-Conversion-p/tcxin9240.htm  
    • Great for thrashing on the track - particularly if it is all corners. Otherwise, it is a recipe for massive tyre wear and reduced straight line traction. -1 is plenty for a streeter.
    • There are other MAP tapping ports. There's one that runs to the boost gauge MAP sensor on the firewall (over in the corner behind the brake booster). Start at that sensor and follow the hose to the plenum.
