Yeah done all that , it always good to get advice off the locals as they know the best spots at the time , around Queanbeyan some of the fishing spots that websites say are good DON`T have water at the moment so u never know how good the info is.

It funny ppl that like cars seen to hate fishing. My car mates hate fishing , my fishing mates hate cars

Gus i know of a few spots around the island (depends on where you are planning on going) that i can let you know of.

It all comes down to time of year and if you are going to be up north or south of the state.

Do you know ANY spots at all you plan on checking out or is it still in the planning stage???

Cheers GMB

Still in the saving and planing stage we hope to get over there November but looks like nobody will have enuff money so maybe March , we want to fish those tailing fish u see on the TV shows, we sort of want to travel around and see as much as possible a few place that are must see are Lake St Clair , pedder and that Lagoon that has the Big Brook trout Penstock I think

When and what lakes do u get those HUGE dun/mayflies hatchers on , as over in the mainland trout don`t rise much we do pretty much all our fishing at night using big wets , great fun in winter when your line and rod ice up.

Sorry I dont have a better idea of spots and times but there is so many lakes . but we only want to catch trout on fly

Would mine to see a few Tassie lines to u dudes must have a mad time on those roads

At Lake St. Clair, you cant go wrong. Theres a spot that involves a decent walk, probably a good hour or so up the Mt. Rufus track, theres a lake called Shadow Lake, which is joined to another thats not named, the un-named lake has a few BIG rainbow trout. Always seek local advice on the weather tho, cause if you get stuck your f**ked up that way

    • Nope, needed to clearance under the bar a little with a heat gun, a 1/2" extension as the "clearancer", and big hammer, I was aware of this from the onset, they fit a 2.0 with this intake no problems, but, the 2.5 is around 15mm taller than a 2.0, so "clearancing" was required  It "just" touched when test fitting, now, I have about 10mm of clearance  You cannot see where it was done, and so far, there's no contact when giving it the beans Happy days
    • It's been a while since I've updated this thread. The last year (and some) has been very hectic. In the second-half of 2024 I took the R34 on a trip through Germany, Italy, France and Switzerland - it was f*cking great. I got a little annoyed with the attention the car was getting around Europe and really didn't drive it that much. I could barely work on the car since I was living in an inner-city apartment (with underground parking). During the trip, the car lost power steering in France - split hose - and I ended up driving around 4,000kms with no power steering.  There were a few Nurburgring trips here and there, but in total the R34 amassed just shy of 7,000kms on European roads. Long story short, I broke up with the reason I was transferred to Europe for and requested to be moved back to Japan. The E90, loved it. It was a sunk cost of around EUR 10,000 and I sold it to a friend for EUR 1,500 just to get rid of it quickly. Trust me, moving countries f*cking sucks and I could not be bothered to be as methodical as I was the first time around.
    • I assume clearances were all a-okay?
    • Shock tower brace is in +5Kw....LOL
