Well, that was the best cruise I have been on in ages.

Well done Matt (Whatsisname) for organising it.Great

turnout, good to see so many GTRs,GTSts, & other imports

out for a good time.My R34 got a real flogging- just loved

that cool air.Whole cruise was sensational, especially the

drags through the centre of the city b4 rundle st on the way

home.

R33 is all ready to go for street drags tonight,so if all goes well

I just might finally break into the nines.Mainly just want to

practice & get the car right for the F,S&R Nationals next weekend.

Cheeky - my ears are still ringing from that burnout you did on

Victoria square.

See you all soon.:D

:lol: I see I'm not the only one jumpin' straight on the forum to see what everyone else thought :D

Thanks John :) The Southern Expressway run was awesome mate :)

I really never expected that many would turn up! Hopefully everyone else enjoyed themselves!? I sure didn't make it easy for everyone to know what was going on :P Slightly past "fashionably" late & forgot the 20 cruise maps I had actually made!

HEY.....at least it didn't rain this time!

Wish I could make it out to AIR for the SM :P Keep me informed of your progess John! Hope you finally crack that 9 mate :uh-huh:

Yeah that was certainly one of the best cruises I have been on. Great turnout and you boys present were on fire .... loved those roundabouts along the seafront chasing Matt (Whasisname) and Henry (Brute) with MattR right up my clackers .... oh those slippery roundabouts :)

The town runs certainly were a highlight! .... 6 very nicely modified cars in a tight pack ripping up the bitumen at every set of lights :wave: .... I couldn't believe my eyes when I looked a bit closer in the 'Cheeky' mobile to see a chick! Nice work from all present .... and if you weren't present why the hell not????

And Matt and John, your Southern expressway shenanigans were unbelievable, as usual! Feel the power!

How'd the pics turn out mate? Nice work by the way! Full tilt driving & taking the happy snaps :uh-huh:

That slightly unexpected moment (rear stepping out going uphill) on the Esplanade was interesting :eek: I think a bit of sand across the road was to blame!?

The QLD rego'd 32 GT-R (minus rear spoiler), is the owner a forum member? That's a quick car!

Nice car CHEEKY.

Forgot to mention earlier - A big thanks to Henry (BRUTE) & wife for leading the way from Moana back toward town, I wasn't 100% on which turns to make. Nice drivin' Henry!

well what a night sensational ;)

great effort for everyone that turned up

awesome to see so many quality cars together and no one getting busted.

was a pleasure to lead the pack Matt, good espy run along the beach would have been a good

sight Holden Ute chased by a pack of Skyline's, wicked :)

cant wait for the next one :P

:wave:

I AM SPEWING!!!!

We lost the pack after Jetty St, and made our way back into town........ MISSING THE CITY FUN!!!:wave:

Woulda been cool to see the pack running amock in the city centre.

Im with the others already posted bring on the next cruise.... (next fri night? i hear gt autosound have a raffle prize for the shootout cruise)

Spewing i missed the cruise now. Still waiting for my front diff to be fixed, it has been 2 and half months and counting that i haven't driven my car for. Can't wait for the next cruise cause i will definetley be there.

Drats! My gal wanted to go home after Mt Lofty summit. Cant believe she wasnt pumped after seeing all those PHAT skylines?!! Crazy woman!

I'll join the cruise ALL the way next time...without her!

Matt, glad you finally answered your phone (instead of voice msg)! Thanks for the directions!

adrian

Matt,

You didn't miss too much after you headed home anyway, just a couple of good bits :)

Adrian,

Yeah sorry mate :) Didn't realise I'd left the mob' in the centre console until just before we headed off!

jojo,

It's not much fun being a passenger with Matt anyway, he drives like my nanna (& she's dead) :)

hey ya..

yeah that cruise rocked.

What do you mean your ears are still ringing john?

I wanted to race you other guys to see how much power my car lacked but i dont think you guys like the idea of racing a girl! :mad:

We have to have more regular cruises me thinks.

Erica,

:burnout:

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
