When I was over (like 2001 lol) I was mainly skating with Igor, Tien, Ben and those guys... but met a lot of the other guys there to. Ian Brown was a champ.

If you see Tom say hi from Twisty, he was kind enough to let me crash at his place a few years ago and havn't talked to him in a long time.

Should real do another trip over East again now flights are so cheap.

Yeah man OG, I know that feeling... every time i see some kid 540 to a grind I feel like a true OG lol

lol @ metro fag... do a wheelie!

Hey Guys,

I was going to come to the North side dinner the other day to meet some of you guys (living in the northside myself), but shit hit the fan at work. Maybe the next one.

On a different note just wondering if there are any bladers around, who may be interested in a weekly/fortnightly meet for a bit of exercise (Sunday arvos possibly). I went to a path at Haberfield last week (Near the dog park there) and it was an awesome place to blade with nice smooth paths next to the water in the kanals there. ALso there was plenty of parking.

Being still new in town, if people have other spots in mind we can change destinations from time to time. I wouldn't recommend the Luna park side of Milson's Point as it was a pretty shit run, with board walk and more board walk, but Manly/Bondi should be good.

Anyway if you keen send me a pm with your email and we can do something this Sunday arvo (30th) say at 3pm.

Draen

hey Draen, if i lived in Sydney I'd be keen... I have my own blades and used to go a fair bit till I got lazy. I like the idea of flat smooth paths... not really into any fancy crap or tricks lol.. it's more for the fun & exercise :nyaanyaa:

I'm in Sydney a fair bit but stay down south and tend to get lost if I have to drive too far from there :yucky:

anyway good luck with it!

I think that Harley bloke went to my school. Blacktown Boys High

But he was a few years older.

I remember the only ramps was emerton spine ramp(but who'd go there)

blacktown pools(bit big)

& bondi had 2 ramps,i liked the little 1

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
