Hey TJ, what were you driving today? I only saw one Stag.
-
So day for me started at the West meet, I think there were 7 cars that showed from memory, we then cruised to the main meet and joined up with the others. Then we all left en masse. FFWD to the GOR cos the other bist are pretty boring really Heaps of traffic and lot of slow drivers that didn't want to pull over but usually eventually did. Best part was the first traffic light, it went orange when I was about to go through and I thought about running it then slammed the brakes.... More time for the group up ahead to create a GIANT gap so we could at least have a bit of fun hehehee!! We got a great run through the twisties, I think there was 8 or 9 of us in the group and we only got 3 cars in front of us, one nice enough to pull over after a few nice hand gestures, a flick of the lights and a toot toot on the horn, I gave him a thankyou wave when we went past, next car pulled over then I got a Audi wagon and he actually had a bit of a play with us before he got a slap from the passenger and he pulled over HA!! We ended up making such good time we caught up with the other group. YAY FOR US!!! rest of the GOR pretty much consisted of a few little squirts and lots more slow drivers gawking at the magnificent views I mean what do they think it is... some sort of Tourist Road! SHEESH!!! Met up with the main group in Apollo Bay for some lunch then went for the mass photo shoot, we actually had so many cars that none of us had a wide enough lens on the camera to fit them all in! after that we went our seperate ways, guys staying the night went back to the accomodation and the rest of us pissed off home through the Otways. We had a small group go home through the Otways, was a bit of a dogs breakfast at first with the main group leaving before the leader did and then the second group missing the turn off. Nathan (green R31) sorry mate, I thought you would have turned around but you kept going up the GOR, ah well, hoope you got home OK. Myself and Mick (Stag) were left by ourselves pretty much and after unmarked cop drove past us pointing we decided to hook it up teh Otway Ranges road. Mick, for a RS Four Stag your car hammers!! AND IT'S AN AUTO!!!! Prob helps you ar a mad man lol!! We drove about 2-3kms up the road and got to the main pack all pulled over with a R33 GTR pulled up on the wrong side of the road near the armco, I thought he had an off but it was engine troubles. Hope you got it sorted mate, all your pipes etc looked fine so hope it's nothing major. We continued on but got broken up into 2 groups, the main group got in front of the white daewoo and old man driving a new MX-5 (will be you in the future Hamish) I got stuck behind, with R34 GTR and the 33 with L plates up. It was HELL!!! the Daepoo was going 35km/h tops about 10 mins down the road they pulled over and I got a big surprise.... Ol Man driving the MX-5 with his white comb over flying straing up in the air and his girl next to him with the hat on FLOORED IT!! He was hammering we both got round and and stuck to him like glue but on some corners I was braking going into them and he was almost tail out driving straight through them! Gotta say, the dude could drive! we played cat and mouse (I was the cat) for about 4km i guess, before he pulled over and waved me past. We had already lost the 34 and the L plater got stuck behind the Daepoo I think (bummer) I took this oportunity to explore the way my car drives at full tilt (as full as I wanted to go on a road I had never driven) bonus for me was thanks to the genius who invented Sat Nav, I could see the road and corners coming up and how tight it was long before I needed to slow down or speed up for them, it's like having your own WRC Navigator... WIN!! That Otway Ranges road is one of the better roads I have driven and I highly recommend it! I eventually caught up to the main group and we continued to cruise along on the way home, problem was our directions were somewhat scarse and we took a wrong turn, or two, or maybe it was 3 but we got there in the end. We lost the Supra that was with us (what happened dude, couldn't keep up with the Lines ) so we were 1 x Stag, 1 x 32 GTR, 1 x 33 GTST, 2 x 33 GTR and 1 x 34 GTR (TPGE4R). We made good time and covered off the KM's pretty good, got to the Geelong Ring Rd and were just cruising then out in the distance there is a 4x4 backing up in the emergency lane and something on the road in the right hand lane, It was a fricken Ladded!! must have come off the 4x4, 33 GTST (sorry dude, can't remember your name ) was in the right lane and dude I dunno if you saw it before I waved like a douche pointing at the road or after but it was bloody lucky you and none of the others cleaned it up or it would have been bye bye car! I turned off the ring road for Bacchus Marsh with a 33GTR and the rest kept going. Dude in the 33GTR, do you live in Melton? you took the first turnoff and I kept going straight, you went the slow way if you do, I live in Melton too. I suppose if you knew that you prob would have followed lol. Anyway, that about wraps up my day. Great times guys. Can't wait for another! Oh and I still haven't edited any pics yet so you'll just have to wait! Double Oh, sorry for the novel

Figured since there wasn't a thread yet, I'd post one. Put all you pics, comments, stories etc. in here. I just walked in the door and about to eat food so will post my pics up after that and some editing. It was a great turnout with 37, 38 or 39 cars (depends who you asked lol) and everyone behaved pretty good... I had a great day for my first GOR and first SAU Club event, Cheers Al for organising us. The drive home through the Otways was Awesome!! must do again! Pics to come, I got a lot of them

Black or gunmetal R32 (couldn't see if GTR or not, too dark) Rego was TURBO6 on Swan St tonight at about 6:15pm going city bound just near the lights that take you over the train lines to go to the city link. I was in the silver 32 GTR sitting in the turning lane at the light, saw you too late to wave or toot.
-
just don't go too high, or noise will be rediculous... unless you have noise ninja on your PC then up up away
-
And it will be for about another 6 months, then your battery will be dead, your speakers will crackle, you will have burn marks anywhere you put it from the massive amount of heat it produces oh and the EPower crap will sh1t you to tears.... Apart from that it's a great hot water bottle substitute for you bed at night
-
just up your ISO a little and use longer exposure, night mode not needed. what camera do you shoot with again?

Quote from site: "Our Pledge to You: Try Mace™ Muzzle canine repellant for 30 days. If you are not completely satisfied with the results, return the unused portion for a full product refund." Most people would be unlucky to be attacked by a dog once in their life so a 30day refund policy is pretty funny! can just imagine all these people going round looking for a dog fight! Wonder if you could even get it into Australia considering you can't get people mace here.... I have 3D maglight in front of the passenger seat, fits perfect in the groove, used to carry a 6D in the Familia though, but it cost too much to keep fresh batteries in the thing!
-
problem is that if this battery is not designed for a car tehn you ,ay run into issues with road vibrations etc making the plates come loose. I'd stick with a known and trusted over a cheapo any day of the week.
-
Yeah I went to last years Skyline nats, I was parked up most of the day next to the burgandy VSpec II from SA with the plates VSPEC2, and the Winfield 32. Was good but very very small turnout for a "Nationals" event. Yes it was a 31 but you picked out a very nice modded example far from stock then show a banged out paddock VL and expect it to even look remotely enticing, could have at least picked a nicely modded VL, they do exist there's just not that many of them
-
Another westy here, Melton West... so West West side lol. Will be selling up and moving back to taylors soon though, Melton is a hole and too far from anything, we do have a pretty good selsction of fast food outlets though, I like to call it Fat City, Maccas across the road from KFC which is across the road from Subway with is next to Red Rooster which is 50m away from Hungry Jacks. Then there is another Maccas, KFC, 2 more Subways a Souvlaki Hut oh and we have a Taco Bill!!!

BAAAHAHAHAHAAAAA!!!!!!!! Authors comment sums it up perfectly: "It has been successfully used for operating nofer trunnions. In addition, whenever a barescent skor motion is required, it may be employed in conjunction with a drawn reciprocating dingle arm to reduce sinusoidal depleneration." And then the comment from SaltyDawg154 "The real question is does it produce the needed 1.21 Jiggawatts needed to power the Delorean time machine? I wonder how they solved getting the wiggle pin into the wobble shaft?" Gold mate, Gold.

Yeah if someone here can organise one (and) we can all get our shit together then surely we can beat the poms with a HUGE number,

chicks in the zoosk ad on the side look better and they're nothing to write home about.

this is not even in the same class as an Optima. This is just a sealed Lead Acid battery, it will weigh the same as your normal Exide you buy at K-Mart but this one is not made for cars. It is for a UPS, Solar station etc. hence the reason it has no CCA (cold cranking amps) rating on it. For a battery to be legal in the boot it has to be a sealed Gel type (optima) or a euro vented type lead acid. This one doesn't show a vent but I bet it has one because a lead acid battery of any type will need to vent excess gasses that are created, this is the reason that if you have a lead acid battery in your boot it needs to vent outside of the car or it can possibly cause a fire if the gasses ignite. IMO, save your money a little longer and buy a yellow top.
-
option 1 - Put a stocky on option 2 - Steel wool! (dodgy, plus sparky ember things will fly out your hole on WOT...heheheh hole) option 3 - get a custom legal exhaust made up option 4 - i can't think of anymore options
-
yeah there would be quite a few of thise little surprises over there. I always wanted to know what happened to the 4 of these that were built: MAZDA FAMILIA SPORT 4 1989 JAPANESE RALLY PRON You would think that at least one would be in the Mazda Museum (although i've never been there to confirm this) or would at least be in the hands of mazda in the back of some factory somewhere gathering dust. But what of the others? There was 2 black, 1 silver and one red one built, only reason I know this is because i've seen a pic of all 4 of them together somewhere before. Bugger all info on the net about them. Anyway, I suppose I should be posting on topic in my own thread lol, but if anyone has other pics of this put em up as it was pretty hard core!

white M35 stag with green P on calder park drive turning onto calder fwy about 2050, looked very nice, then white 33 (not sure what, I was a fair ways back in the wife's Dualis) turning off melton hwy into Royal Cres about 2100. Also saw a yellow 34 with no wang on Tulla Fwy city bound about 1030 this morning, I didn't bother waving as I was turning off for Bell St and again, was in wife's Dualis.
-
my Kakimoto is a 3.5 inch with 2 Jasma mufflers, it's loud enough for now. Dunno if it would pass or not but meh, couldn't really care, been pulled over 2 times in the GTR and one of those was a boozer and not once have they said anything or even popped the hood.
-
