Yeah i was thinking it would be good to have a small club or something in the gippsland area. If there is enough people round that want to meet up it would be good. I dont really know any other skyline owners round here.

My parents live in Yinnar so I drive around that area a fair bit in my R. The traffic cops are pretty bored in the valley, my record is 4 'random' breath tests in 48 hours. luckily they aren't too bright so provided your not too low and you don't have any shiny things in your engine bay you're generally ok.

Far out man...

My best was 4 times in 7 days.

But 48 hour takes the badge for SURE!

Rod - you need to harden up.

I cruise up to Raymond Island with my mates a couple times a year to stay at a holiday house we have there. But if there is an event going on up that way, may prompt us to arrange our next trip as we are both 'line owners.

thats all good i have few mates with nice cars.

you would get a bigger club going if you had other cars also my skyline is getting a new engine atm but iv been getting around in my mates pink supra lol

my grandparents live in sale so i head up there a few times a year and i know my way around there quite well. i always go for a walk around the lake there, im usually wrecked after it though lol. ill be heading back up there again soon in my new r34. watching those roulettes practice is always awsome to watch.

lol, all 5mins of it :D (joke for both Rod & Kat hehe)

ha got that right.

Its great... I park.. and I have 3 pubs at my disposal within a few metres...so its not a long crawl back to the car to pass out.

Gotta love country towns.

hey from sale agian.

im bout to unleash my 33 gtst out but cops can pull me off the road.

there is nothing shiny under the bonnett can i tell em its non turbo and do everything to make it sound like a non?

and do you think they will care cos my mate has a pink supra with 20s and stands out and he has never been pulled over?

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
