Would be nice to have the 2 & 4 wheeler there but might be a bit difficult.

Probably 4 wheeler may be a little more appropriate for SAU photos.

ill be there, but in the orange beast as usual.

Sled, ill drive the 34 out for ya :)

we all know sled would prefer someone experienced in driving these GTR 4wd mobile's

:( did i mention ive had mine for 2 years now.

maybe you should hook the skyline on a trailer and tow it there with the sled :thumbsup:

im keen for happy snaps, ill prob bring a camera and take a few official cam man dan pics, but i cant imagine my pics being the best as some of us have moderate camera budgets :(

i wanna get a happy snap with 1 of each GTR if you can rope 1 of each in there. anyone got an r35 here yet?

Ok well Ill give it to this arvo, But i will put all the details into the first post, and Send out Pm's with the meet spot details in the next week or so.

Am thinking 2pm Meet, Febuary 17th (Sunday), so it wont clash with Clipsal, and still gives people time to arrange time off/drivers etc

Im keen if I have my car has been tuned by then.

Also if someone there has a stock or lightly modded 32 GT-R would it be possible to have a little ride in the passenger seat as i want to see its worth getting one in the next couple of months, or to just keep saving for a KPGC10 GT-R Replica. :blink:

though can someone PM to remind a couple of days before the shoot so i dont forget :D

32gtr = best car eva made ;) although i made my decision to get 1 10 years ago without even seeing one up close.

the old school replica could also be quite pimp though

ya can come for a lil spin in mine if ya like.

    • I drive the Tiguan much harder than the Skyline in all conditions, because it just grips and hooks, unlike the R33 shit box
    • The rain is the best time to push to the edge of the grip limit. Water lubrication reduces the consumption of rubber without reducing the fun. I take pleasure in driving around the outside of numpties in Audis, WRXs, BRZs, etc, because they get all worried in the wet. They warm up faster than the engine oil does.
    • When they're dead cold, and in the wet, they're not very fun. RE003 are alright, they do harden very quickly and turn into literally $50 Pace tyres.
    • Yeah, I thought that Reedy's video was quite good because he compared old and new (as in, well used and quite new) AD09s, with what is generally considered to be the fast Yokohama in this category (ie, sporty road/track tyres) and a tyre that people might be able to use to extend the comparo out into the space of more expensive European tyres, being the Cup 2. No-one would ever agree that the Cup 2 is a poor tyre - many would suggest that it is close to the very top of the category. And, for them all to come out so close to each other, and for the cheaper tyre in the test to do so well against the others, in some cases being even faster, shows that (good, non-linglong) tyres are reaching a plateau in terms of how good they can get, and they're all sitting on that same plateau. Anyway, on the AD08R, AD09, RS4 that I've had on the car in recent years, I've never had a problem in the cold and wet. SA gets down to 0-10°C in winter. Not so often, but it was only 4°C when I got in the car this morning. Once the tyres are warm (ie, after about 2km), you can start to lay into them. I've never aquaplaned or suffered serious off-corner understeer or anything like that in the wet, that I would not have expected to happen with a more normal tyre. I had some RE003s, and they were shit in the dry, shit in the wet, shit everywhere. I would rate the RS4 and AD0x as being more trustworthy in the wet, once the rubber is warm. Bridgestone should be ashamed of the RE003.
    • This is why I gave the disclaimer about how I drive in the wet which I feel is pretty important. I have heard people think RS4's are horrible in the rain, but I have this feeling they must be driving (or attempting to drive) anywhere close to the grip limit. I legitimately drive at the speed limit/below speed the limit 100% of the time in the rain. More than happy to just commute along at 50kmh behind a train of cars in 5th gear etc. I do agree with you with regards to the temp and the 'quality' of the tyre Dose. Most UHP tyres aren't even up to temperature on the road anyway, even when going mad initial D canyon carving. It would be interesting to see a not-up-to-temp UHP tyre compared against a mere... normal...HP tyre at these temperatures. I don't think you're (or me in this case) is actually picking up grip with an RS4/AD09 on the road relative to something like a RE003 because the RS4/AD09 is not up to temp and the RE003 is closer to it's optimal operating window.
