Saturday Nights

Saturday night cruises are the main and most regular event for SilviaNSW (check forums in advance for dates etc), starting Thornleigh McDonalds on Pennant Hills Road where we get together and head of for a cruise etc.. Usually about 6-10+ cars turn up to these events and depending on the ideas on the night we can head of to many different locations...

The usual meeting time is 9:00pm where we head off around 9:30pm and don't expect to get home earlier than 3:30am.

These cruises are not just restricted to club members or Nissan car owners, everyone is welcome and a wide variety of cars can be expected, from Commodores, Honda's, Bikes and even some top end show imports.

To make the night even more interesting you should bring along a UHF radio, this is how we communicate with each other while driving. It makes for a fun filled evening while driving and allows us to keep the group together, not to mention its a hell of alot cheaper than using your mobile (and less radiation). The following unit is what most of the club use, it is available from Dicksmith Electronics (www.dse.com.au):

Uniden UH-040XR Pocket Communicator Keep in touch with this new pocket sized UHF Family communicator. It's crisp, clear transmissions and 40 UHF channels provide up to 3km outdoor line of sight range, with no airtime costs or user license required. Model No. UH-040XR. Cat No. D1748 A$99

 

Long Distance Cruises

Apart from the regular weekly cruises the club also meets up for a Long distance cruise of sorts to different locations such as Gosford, Newcastle, Wollongong etc, these events are advertised in the forum as well as with other Silvia sites such as www.nissansilvia.com, www.200sx.org, www.silviaaustralia.com and www.aus-cartalk.com.

 

Drag Days

On special occasions it may be possible to organise proper drag event days where we can head to Eastern Creek or other such locations and have a day of legal runs. Once again these events will be posted in the forums along with all the necessary information about them. It is important to note that days like this are not covered at all by most (if not all) insurance companies.
