Been to melting pot on king william ? if not try it, they do a degustation menu, try with the wine matches yuuumm.

Crown and sceptre aint to bad for drinks, or BOHO on unley rd and they do alot of nibble food.

Lol how did the person get kicked out of there ?

did that 2 years ago, one of the best meal i ever had (best is 14 courses @ Tesuya Sydney:P)

the award winning chef then sold the business to the current owner last year, I checked their menu a month ago and it didn't change much

If you really get stuck writeoff and can't make up your mind with all these great suggestions, I'll lend you the SLED for a night and you can take her for a spin along the coastline. :P

It turns out that she is a bike chick and had a nice street bike in the garage. She's into cars as well. I spoke about your bike and offer of the SLED. Cafe Salsa was good but not what I expected.

Did you actually end up taking her to Cafe Salsa?

I suppose I'm a little bit biased towards that place.........it's more of a restaurant these days.

I agree. I wasn't going to have a meal on the first date. Just drinks and nibbles and maybe icecream later. Less pressure and less $ blown if it turns out that you don't really like each other that much.

Yeah. I scored hugh brownie points when I first suggested it as she is a salsa dancer but both of us were surprised that it turned out to be an Italian restaurant. Still had a good meal in a relaxed seventies atmosphere. It was a bit cold for a walk along the beach though as we were both in short sleeves and I didn't have any tops or blankets in the Pug.

Glad you had a good meal.

You're right, Salsa is not really an Italian name is it.

Marco has this thing about the 60's & 70's retro look with the furniture.....not my cup of tea but some people like it.

Didn't think of it but you probably should have mentioned that you were a friend of the landlords......you may have scored a free drink (or maybe not).

Theres a killa joint for food on Unley Rd called Vino, nice food and then BOHO across the road for drinks after!!

But Spats is the go if it's just for sweets/coffee!!

for u Karly, Maccas would be a great place to take a girl:)

The closest bowling to the city that I know of is on Goodwood road (which is right across the road from a maccas too karl!)

Otherwise head east to the Bowling centre in St Peters/Norwood

I don't get it.... Almost anyone that's been to Spats raves about it. I've been there twice with the mrs and friends and both times the smell in that place was absolutely disgusting (if you can imagine strong parmesan cheese mixed with vomit).... I won't go back there!

      Not that I know from experience, but in theory you'd want your gate spring to be as close to target pressure as possible, so you'd go with the higher gate spring?

      Before I commit to it as I already have the wastegate off the car, would you change it to the 9psi spring instead of the 12, or whack it back on now and try your suggestion?   Edit: Actually I might just swap the spring and see what the logs say after another few pulls, as we know it's still spiking without the Mac valve in the picture so I need more data without the Mac valve trying to combat the issue.

      Steps to DIY sanding car back ready for respray....

      Sounds good Hmm suppose the main thing is, how much do you care about this car? The filler doesn't make for a very good water barrier lol. If there was a tiny little bit of rust forming now, that in 3 to 5 years time becomes obvious under the paint (starts to bubble up), would it bother you?

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      I already have the ability to datalog the voltage... what I can't do is correlate it to what the gauge is showing when I'm looking at the data at a later date. Or something like this. Except getting the oil to 125C+ involves me going 200+kmh at the track so you can imagine this is a little tricky unless I do something like note what the voltage is when I am at the top of 5th gear so I have a point to reference on. Drove car today. O2 still reading richer because hopefully not a leak instead of massive restriction I've introduced. Car really doesn't sound like a LS. It's quite strange. Pulled a bit of fuel out up top. This does potentially explain why my spark plugs looked like the car was running pretty over-rich. If I was tuning it to a ~12.7 which in reality was far richer than that in the past. It will be handy to have the dyno WB to compare my WB to to compare notes that's for sure. At this point I'm happy to just sit in the passenger seat and tune the thing given I've got about 7 million hours on the platform lol.

      Infiniti Q60 Navigation Update

      By Chocolate Cheesecake. · Posted

      Yeah I understand you have to pay for an updated map or subscription service or something. But I can't even find a current map for Australia. My map is dated 2017, but didn't this car version still sell in Australia until 2021?   Also, just as an aside, the navigation system warns you of traffic incidences ahead.....why would they include that on a map they knew is not receiving live information. I am forever going to be warned of an incident that probably existed for 30 minutes 8 years ago.
