I'm definately not coming now guys. Some inconsiderate person thought they had the right to break into my house and steal my wallet and the keys to my girlfriends corolla, then take off with the corolla. Unless the cops find it tomorrow (not f$%#ing likely) I have to give my car to the missus to drive to newcastle on the weekend and I'm getting an old VL to run around in.

As soon as I find who did it I'm going to break their legs, then wait for them to heal and break them again.... I hate pricks who steal cars, especially mine.

Anywho guys, have a fun day, I enjoyed it when I last went.

This was in Bathurst at my new home. Turns out you can't trust anyone these days. They fingerprinted the doors but didn't get any good prints. I guess I'll just lodge an insurance claim and see what happens.

can someone who will be getting there early/around start time or knows a lot about the area PM me there phone number so i can convoy with you on the morning, i'll most likely be hung-over as buggery so need someone to lead me there haha

Car is looking dam nice at the moment, only had a chance to clean half the outside so im all set for tomorrow. Might even work on cleaning under the bonnet this time instead of getting an evo driver to do it for me :D

Hi all

Was going to pretty my car up good for this and show it off a bit but last weekend I had a minor incident with a small roo.

Thankfully I only glanced it but that was enough to put minor cracks through the paint on the front bar in a couple of places + a small indent in the passenger side door. So really only very minor damage for a roo encounter but still bloody annoying.

So with that I decided that i'll just coma along say hello and have a perv at everyone elses car porn.

See ya tomorrow

Just so people know, heres the road where the futsal stadium is, up the end of the street. This is where the cruise starts. I'll be at John Knights park from 8am, won't be part of the cruise.

Had a great time, good to meet everyone, the spot we got was different but I think it worked out better in the end. Slightly burnt, but good day.

edit: Thanks to Mick for the Federal Tent and everyone that helped make the day what it was :teehee:

Took some ok pics.

    • I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
    • The video for the servicing and fuel filter change can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44 One of the main jobs I wanted to do before the car officially went on the road, was to remove the awful looking blue silicone hoses. There's nothing wrong with having coloured silicone hoses, but I realise as I'm getting older I prefer monotone engine bays with a splash of colour on the engine cover(s). I cover this in a lot more detail in the Youtube video, so unfortunately there's limited photos of the process. The intercooler, upper radiator, boost vacuum and upper breather hoses were all changed to black silicone with mikalor clamps. The only blue left is a blanking cap at the back of the inlet manifold and the GReddy pulleys (which will be replaced for stock when the cambelt gets replaced) While the intercooler pipes were off I gave them a quick clean/polish too A before photo I do have a replacement air filter on its way. Fuse box covers were painted blue, they're now satin black Another job on the list while the bumper was off, is to add some mesh https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54737966256_99b28bfa30_c.jpg[/img] I was hoping to use some thin wire to secure it, but it seems I've misplaced it and the wire I had was too thick to twist easily. I ended up using cable ties for the time being https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54737131882_c2b7989dcc_c.jpg[/img] Was pleasant to see this https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54737131627_8b2aab13b3_c.jpg[/img] The last thing to do was to fix the front grill and re-mesh that to match but I ran out of time The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R4FsF6tgizE&t=23s
