OK the 11thNov.

A Buddy I chat with on Classic Skylines is coming up to see me and pick up half a dozen wheels I've got for him. He is coming up in his PNV DR30 with

(Ithink) an L28t, which is the US turboed version of the 280Z motor, or similar

His name is GHOSTRIDER (aka Dennis) and many of you will have seen his

dedication to all things from Factory 5.

If we can settle on the 11th and a venue, I will chat Dennis to be there.

If we all fax SKA a $50 note he might get here too.LOL.

I dont mind whether its up the coast or down south, I'll be there.

Thanks for the offer Hugh, but seriously I dont need your money. I do have money in the bank that I could use for petrol to get down there and back, but it is all allocated as savings for bills and the like.

It's all about priorities, and sorry to say but feeding my family comes before going down to brisbane for a get together.

Thanks for the offer but, muchly appreciated :( I'll be there in spirit.

That said I just realised too that there are much more important things you could be putting that $50 to. Like I would be much happier to hear that with that $50 you took out your family for dinner somewhere or took your wife out for a nice dinner and movie, or a billion other things!

Anyway now that the violin music has started playing, back on topic Ska!! :(

We went down the coast today for breakfast. Sure there are alot of important things in life. I cancelled a 50 year reunion in Perth cause my little bloke has a FU elbow and looks like he needs surgery for it, on top of a

repeat of his ankle op.

At this stage it's the broadwater carpark Surfers paradice on the 11 Nov at about 2.30pm. I think most are happy with this. All i want to do is put a face to the names and check out some nice cars as well as taking some photoes. I was also wanting to through around an idea for a cruse early next year say Feb or Mar.

We at in or around Brisbane could head north for a couple of hours and SKA-Cyrs could head south for a couple of hours and we would meet in the middle some where. This would make the cost of the drive about the same for everyone. This is only my idea and it is open for debate.

Ummmmmmmmm I live 7 hours north of Brisbane :mad: so half way would be like Gin Gin :mellow: And there aint nothing at Gin Gin that is that exciting. Trust me, the BWCP in the early arvo is good, there is a great covered park and as the sun goes down the kids pirate ship playthingy gets the shade and there are some electric bbq's there to cook something on too. Also if you wait around till later in the night it fills up with hundreds of all kinds of makes and models of souped up cars :(

Hugh, Dennis is an SAU-NSW club member (or former member/exec), but as far as I know he isn't as active on the forums here as much as he used to be.

7 Hours Ska???

I live in Sydney and I'm comin up to see my friend so I might/probably be there but alas in my 1UZ Toyota.

Was once going to buy a Stagea, but how could I pass up 6 bolt mains and forged pistons standard. :D

Any of you guys going to this:

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...=140364&hl=

There was 6 or 7 stagea's at it last year, no I didnt make it last year, and wont this year either, <sighs>

Will be tring hard to get to this

Have to get the car finished, along with a new roof and brick work to the house by then.

There is just not enough time on the week-ends to buid 300sqm + of house by yourself on the week-ends and build cars at the same time

Unfortunitly that is why I will have to miss the Qld get together

    • Why are you so adamant on going M12? Why not follow Brad (GTSBoy) suggestion. You're talking moving from a 1/8" size, to a 1/2" effectively. 4 times bigger. Why skip the commonly available sizes in between? The bigger you go, the more likely you are to strip the threads out at a later date, as guaranteed, someone will put a huge spanner on the M12 and really tighten it up, and you're only in thin wall, so not a lot of threads to engage!
    • Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.
    • Probably gonna remove manifold and turbo. I’m not sure if I can get M12 x 1.5 air tight. Could use high temp Loctite 246 or something similar, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just best to remove everything again and weld an 1/8NPT on there instead.
    • Yeah, saw the ratios, not impressed. Would like the punch I have in the first gears now. With those ratios it won't be the same.  Also want the h pattern gearing, or at least a quiet gear set that don't need to come apart for service each year. Looks like the only "reasonable" way Is a 8hp70 transmission, but where is the fun in that🤷‍♂️
