Well.. sorry I couldn't make it - actually saw Mars as I was leaving to go to DY - than while I was out on a friends balcony saw you all cruise through DY on the way.. amusing looking down at all the cars.. looked like a few GTR's.. who's got the white R34 with a black carbon bonnet?

ALso - stan - were you a bit late? think I saw you a little behind.. or maybe that was someone else..

Thanks to the yellow lights at Palm Beach, none of my shots turned out right. They've all got a horrid orange tinge.

And the only one I could photoshop into a reasonable look is the front of Stan's car. The rest look like they've gone through a dodgy IR filter.

I hope your car's not lowered or running stiff suspension. Its choppy and broken in a lot of places.

If the run was smoothish I'd love it, but I always bottom out somewhere.

Yeah, Stan and Mitch (my mechanic) were running a little late... only managed to get the car back together around 7, met up with the local crew, washed the car and then roared to Newport ;)

Not bad timing though, got there just as people were digging into the their Italian meals :P

Go the burnouts at the carpark :rolleyes: And I hope that paddy wagon wasn't too much trouble. Saw him going past when we left Palmy :P

You can just tell everyone you took photos in "Sepia tone" to give added effect. They're not that bad, considering...

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
