Met up with Pete and his purple great grandpappy line today... and omg. I want one! Nicely restored car, with very sleeper looks and a roaring modern heart. Big fan of that sort of stuff, so I was well excited to get a ride in it today. As I told Pete, one of these days I'll pick up a Datsun 240K and drop an RB25DET and take it to a C110 GTR look.

I took some quality pics of his car too, but unfortunately I left my USB cable at home in melb, so I can only upload em when I get back.

Yeah, Pete's lil Marvin definately does turn some heads, esp at shows. :D

If your not having a big night on the Satday, you might want to take your camera down to ETSA Park - Mile End at 12noon on Sunday to check out the cars for the Megacruise. Weather permitting ther's an expected 200+ cars from various clubs.

im glad you like the cruise, shan.... it was good meeting you too... and you are right marv is one very unique car........ have a good one in adelaide and i hope tro catch up with you again soon... will definately be lookin you up when i come to melbourne and have to keep in touch....

have a good one.... Pete

hehe just checked out DA's website and there's a round in May over here. So I'll try to come down for that in either the AE86 or the R32. Will Marvin be sliding as you planned by then?

Met up with Darren (Deluxe) yesterday, and went Performance Shop shmoozing. I'll be trying to get some Zenith products to fit on the silvias at Driftline (www.driftline.com.au) and had a chat tot he guys at D1 garage about existing orders and future orders.

hope you enjoyed your stay in adelaide hope to give u a ride in a 33 GTS4 the next time ur over ...

:thumbsup: still havnt got my car back from the crown gears being mashed from wot i suspect was ignorance on my behalf ...

driving with a space saver when my other rims are slightly larger

although Pete from willal racing claims he runs the GTR's arround the yard all the time on different rims and was amazed to hear of my problems so it may have been fatigued gears :S

Blew my clutch today... lucky had four mates in car to push it home... Although hills were a pain!!!!!!

Got some awesome footage...

Hope it wasnt my Vspec diff or i could be saving for a long time to get it fixed.... Anyone know where to get one or how much they are?

I prob needed a stronger clutch anyways (triple plate here i come!)

    • Ha ha ha, that's fair mate! We have the crackhead dogs now. Mainly because the missus wants the crazy dogs while she still has the energy and capacity to be able to keep up with them! Ha ha our current two are both Working GSD, there brothers and sisters (from the same litters) are in Police, Corrective Services, and I believe one did end up in defence force too. They're wild and fun, yet right now, both curled up asleep on the lounge room floor while we watch some TV. Mal is very likely the next dog (unless I get my couch potato guardian dog 😛 )   What are your Kitties names? Are you planning some house work, like those high kitty shelves, built in scratching post, and some cat passages from one room to another room?
    • Maine Coone, did look at but to big and fluffy As for performance dogs, we had Mals at work, performance dogs are fun to watch, but, way to much work for this old rooster
    • Yep, it was only an option on the Q50 Hybrid.  Same in Japan as far as I know. And doesn't use a centre diff like the Suby's do, so not the same as the WRX.  But it also isn't a reactive AWD like other Nissan AWD vehicles are, eg. Murano/Xtrail/etc.
    • You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛
    • Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.
