hey,

soz hotsky for not callin , got pissed off cause i could not get a frigin car park in all bloody city, so i just went home, yeah i think next time we need to organize a better place than station pier, it should be sumwhere closer to calder so there is no excuses as to where to meet ands u have to go there anyway, so u cant say it is to far for me to go there, ramble, ramble, ramble............

u know what i mean...............

i will be in the next round of drags as i will be there around 5-6pm so u will have to meet me there...................hehe

**** australian cars, go jap go!!!

yup! There were a few (rx7, 180's) but not as few as I might have expected. I reckon we get a few of our cars on there and at least have something interesting to see and talk about!

Next weekend I should have my nice chromies on, but unforunately its not looking too photoworthy at the mo' due to big crack in front bar...washed it before and its still there :):D sniff..

I bought a fibreglass kit yesterday so its time i learned how to fibreglass. Should be able to fix it as good as new, but its going to take some time.

none of the SAU guys ran their cars..jet 33 watched and videoed   there were 2 lines that i remember, a white 33gtr ran 12's i think  and black 33 plates'ohbehave'(a 10 sec car apparently!) but driver was running 12.70's

that OBHAVE or whatever it is car was in an issue of speed maagzine as some sort of crazy skyline that is well known all around australia as one of the fastets road cars, it was in the issue with the blue WRX and 180 on the front, i think it was issue #3, i left mine on the plane on the way home from my holiday (wanted to keep the da,nm photos of the gold GTR in there they had a huge review on) but oh well shit happens

If its one of Australia's fastest, he sure wasn't Australia's best driver! ;) A few GTS-T's should be able to hit the 12's that are on SAU (spread out all over Australia though).

He seemed pretty young though - did he build up the car himself or did he buy it from somebody like that already??

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
