I wish everything wa sonly 15 minutes away but the government has been building anew Perth to Mandurah rail link right down the Middle of the Kwinana freeway whilst this doesnt put anymore cars on the road the numerous speed changes from 100 to 60 to 80 to 60 to 100 and so forth seem to confuse people as well as the lane diversions and closures which only sloq us down as Perth drivers seem to have an inability to merge with other traffic. I drive to work in Joondalup in the mornings which is a 50k drive from my house and if I leave early enough it only takes 30 minutes but if I get stiuck in traffic it takes over an hour.

Once the roadworks are done at the beginning of next year though it will all be good

and I am sure anyone who lives north of Perth who has to use the Mitchell freeway to get to work will tell you how bad that is with no roadworks

lol, if i get stuck in traffic in sydney it can sometimes take more than two hours to get where i need to go

If I go the long way, and if I get every red light and if I get stick in traffic............

If all that happened, then it would take me a whole 15mins to drive from one side of Rockhampton to the other :yes:

You are lucky to get such a long trip. Prolly even get into OD and even lock it up on a fine day.

Mt. Tamborine is 1min 37secs on a foggy day and dont bother if the weather is fine. Its much better to walk.

How I loooove my retirement.lollollolhahahahaha

PS... It ought to be ESSENTIAL that location is part of registering.???Moderate.

Location is not manditory :dry:

And since you cant get 98RON petrol up the top, you have to travell down the goat track to the coomera BP and damn have to go shopping in Beenleigh, means that you have an AwEsOmE! little exciting drive ;) I have 4.3kms of straight with one 90 degree turn in it, and that is about as exciting as it gets in rocky :yes:

true, he's actually spotted my car. missus was usin it for the day. completely forgot! may seem him around soonish, will be moving to the sunny coast. He'll show me up, though... i am pretty proud to be the owner of the slickest wagon for 129km...

ps you actually looked up those distances?

been started already, but it's quite an old thread. i don't know how many of those people still have stageas

I remember that thread, and I wonder where some of the old members are now...

mcnamg (Glen) is back, but where did madwagon and Jay95R33 go? They were also very instrumental in the early days...

Does anyone else remember any missing members from when we first started posting?

Gary1, he was the previous owner of my stagea, and I dont see any stagea's either, at all.

There is a rumour floating around that there is one in yeppoon (25kms away) but yet to see it or have anyone confirm that yet...

what about DRIFFT or DRIFTT i think it was from perth, he sold his ages ago though and i have spoken to him a few times since. top bloke and very helpful ;)

saft from NZ doesnt post on here very often either but he is a wealth of good info on going fast in a stagea as his dads one ran a high 11 ages ago in a rb26 rs four.

thats about all i can think of.

Nick,

As you probably remember madwagon wrote his stagea off most likely he got something else with the insurance money and is on another forum talking about his new ride.

I thought Jay sold his car as well.

Brad yeah Nigel is very helpful I have also spoken to him since he sold his stagea I think he has a Chaser and a Delica now he is active on the delica discussion forums www.delicaclub.com I think he works for a RAW down near mandurah and he knows the blokes at autowholesale

true, he's actually spotted my car. missus was usin it for the day. completely forgot! may seem him around soonish, will be moving to the sunny coast. He'll show me up, though... i am pretty proud to be the owner of the slickest wagon for 129km...

Qiky - your stagea will show mine up any day. By the way, my sister lives in Narangba/Burpengary, so maybe we'll catch up when Im visiting her. If you dont move closer then 129 k's beforehand

    • I have done a lot of research before posting here and on gtruk forum. couldn't find anything. I have my gauges all part except the needle itself. the needle has a extremely small hole in the center, but the shaft going to the needle is extremely small and appears to have nothing to index it either. doesn't seem strong enough to simple pry or pull without damaging something. Already tried the old spoon trick on a extra triple meter I have from a gtt, but no luck. the center cap comes off easily but the hole in the meter face plate aren't big enough to get over the needle itself. figured this would be my best place to find someone who might have actually removed theirs. wonder if there is some type of small pin press tool to push the pin in while pulling the needle base off.
    • Ok...its taking me long enough to finally do this.  Feck financial security...heart disease will get me soon enough anyway So welcome to the garage..."Clem" Belsil80 has been running a 370Z in Super TT series. So after entering with him in last years Winton 300 i figured I  need my own car. Seems SAU Vic race cars need to be yellow....{tick} Reckon with enough motor i will be able to make up for the lack of talent and stay ahead of the 370Z... but the LS powered S13 and E36s are a ways up the road Aim is to have a car that doesnt stop or turn but has a bit of shed built motor with jam...maybe some cream  First step is getting this ex drift car log booked I am keeping faithful silver car. As the road-club car gets upgrades the race car wil get the sloppy seconds
    • Assuming that they will come off without damage at all.... i would have thought just pull straight up off the spindle with a something or other than can reach underneath. Have you searched for youtube vids of people doing similar on R34s or any other Nissan from the same vintage? They should be the same technique, in all likelihhood.
    • Keeping in mind that sandblasting is really aggressive on softer metals like cast alloy, and you can do damage that you might regret. For trash wheels, not a problem. For wheels with value/scarcity issues, etc.... perhaps a less aggressive media is a better choice?
    • Don't get all high and mighty. Experienced spanner wielders know exactly what effort is required to release an Oof.
