Ok, so what are the thoughts? where are we leaving from and what time etc???

Everyone knows that my suggestion is the putty road... so come on... lets get something happening!

Details will be posted by the end of the week. I will be sorting out the Meeting Points and Route most probably tonight.

I still have a few options on destination but I'll make the final call by the end of the week :D

UPDATE!!!!!

Meeting point will be THORNLEIGH MCDONALDS @ 8:30am for a 9:00am sharp departure

We will be hading up the old pacific highway to West Gosford McDonalds to meet a few people from the coast. From there we will endeavour to leave around 10:45 ~ 11 to drive up the F3 to the hunter. I have had a few very interesting suggestions on destination today so am still undecided on the destination.

Hope this helps you guys out in the mean time :)

Stay tuned :(

jt im guessing the meet up (i suggested to toshi) that TWS people can met up at the cumbo BK or cumbo macca's whichever u prefer... most prob the BK as its closer to the m4...

then meet up gay... i mean TNS poeple at thornleigh macca's then cruise up together from there....

also must agree toshi 9:30 departure from thrnleigh is a lil late.. not taking into account donnie might be coming so you will leave more like 10:30 :D

probably 8:30 meet (even earlier if possible) and SHARP departure at 9:00... if ur late u can meet up at west gosford macca's or try and catch up...

guys, the official meeting point is Thornleigh Macca's.

If groups of guys want to meet elsewhere, then please feel free to do so however you will need to be @ Thornleigh McDonalds by 8:30 so that we can leave @ 9:00am SHARP

I have considered meeting at homebush and cumberland macca's but have come to the conclusion that in order to get to the hunter at any decent time, we'de have to be meeting @ homebush at like 7am.

p.s. if u wish to discuss alternate meeting points amongst yourselves I have no problem with that. All that I ask is you do not do it in this thread as it may cause some confusion for people who are reading through.

Jimbo: fun can be had on the old pacific highway :D

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
