100% of the cars you saw in that car park probably had defects too bud. It isnt any better up here. :D

It's good you enjoyed yourself.

I see alot of R32's, and R33's up here, as per usual, but what I've so many of since I've been up here are S13 Silvia's.

I just moved to the Gold Coast from Sydney,.. honestly I miss Sydney, but that's mainly because I don't know anyone up here, and have no clue what to do, or where to go on weekends.

The Broadwater car park definately seems to be a saturday night hotspot,... the first weekend I was up here was when the cops defected something like 119 cars, and confiscated 7, something along those lines anyway.

I went to check it out for the first time last saturday, although I'd usually try to stay clear from such attention, in Sydney anyways,... but I got nothing better to do up here as of yet.

I didn't realise before how far Brisbane city is from the Gold Coast,.... so is Surfer's the only place to go out on weekends?

Welcome dude

You sure picked a great city to move to. Gold coast is awesome. Soon you will have many friends and maybe a few hotties ( preferably in bekini's and not mankini's ). Anyway, enjoy yourself, i sure you will find some good spots to hang out. Also, Gold coast is sometimes a hotspot for defect cops. Just make sure your car is legal and you won't have any problems.

the Gold Coast isnt that far From Brisbane

Now in Sydney.....well EVERYWHERE is far there! I got told Parramatta wasnt 'that' far to the city....my ass it takes frigging ages!

Gold Coast is like 40-50 mins from Brisbane so I hear.

Parramatta is only 30 mins from the city. The only reason why it probably seems long is that there's 10x more traffic in Sydney, especially if you don't take the M4.

Driving for 30mins from Parra to a nightclub in the city is normal,... but now I'll have to drive 50mins along the M1 to get to Brisbane ?

After checking out Surfer's, there's only so many places to go,... and I have no idea where all the hotties are hiding ? Maybe Brisbane is the go on the weekends.

Welcome to the coast infamous :D You'll get over missing Sydney before long, I moved to GC in '03 and it was weird at first but suprisingly easy to settle in because practically everyone is from other states :ermm:

R33, glad you had fun - its a great place to be !

Gold coast chicks are a hell of alot more decent then brissy girls.(sorry but its true :ermm:) Depending on your age really depends on which clubs you wanna head out too.

But brissy clubs are hell of alot better then gold coast haha.

But brissy clubs are hell of alot better then gold coast haha.

the goldcoast clubs are starting to pickup their act though.

the bedroom, drinks, cocktails & platinum nightclubs are some of the better ones on the coast.

but when it comes clubbing in brisbane... they valley is the best place to go - family, met, planet, birdies, etc.

i moved here in 04 and i didnt just move state i moved country! u will settle in and meet some pretty cool people on the coast. i couldnt believe the cars when i got here first and as soon as i stepped out of bris airport i fell in love with skylines cos id never seen a skyline in real life before and since then ive seen so many crazy cars!

got over surfers AGES ago, id rather go to a pub or rsl now, but thats prob cos im not searching for tail, i have my women.

yea i enjoyed it heaps man. il never wash those jocks again!!! :laughing-smiley-014: :)

maybe you could frame those Y fronts, sign 'em and see what you get for it on ebay? a genuine jock soiling from riding in a 400 KW 300ZX is gotta be worth something right?

    • I hope it's actually possible. This is a write off in insurance world.
    • Yup. 2-way with shallow ramp angles. Still works.
    • That was the first session so not a lot to take from the day. It was low 20s ambient and the coolant had got to 110 (and obviously had some pressure!) so that still needs to be addressed. I haven't downloaded the data yet but will. I had refilled the auto trans with Redline DT6 because it claimed the best viscosity I could find at 100o. It wasn't really long enough to get a good feel for that; while the trans got to 100o in the session it still wasn't shifting crisply as I hoped. I think I'll try a few more sessions before judging. No steering motor overheat but I'd hope not in only 1 session! But finally the suspension; it was night and day over the standard stuff and the car was a couple of seconds quicker on the same crappy tyres, which is a huge difference. I'll stick with that and get some sway bars and a mechanical diff sorted too and see how that all goes together
    • I guess it’s partially a compromise of how my car is used, wanting to be able to switch from drift to grip with track side on-car adjustment. Also partially with the way the knuckles are set there is more static camber but less dynamic camber gain. 
    • OK, so update from the track day on Friday It was a classic "an unfortunate series of events'. There were a few cars around and when i checked my mirror coming out of the fish hook I notice some smoke from the rear of mine. Looked again and it was getting much worse, I figured I'd blown a turbo or something to got off it and pulled off the racing line. However.... since it is a left hairpin into a right kink, I was on the inside of the next corner. There was a car passing me on the left and a big drop off over the ripple strip on the right......and someone had knocked the witch's hat that was on the apex about 1m onto the track. So, between those 3, I decided to mow down the cone and not damage my car/the other car. Right choice, but surprising result.  The car decided the cone was a small pedestrian so it blew the rear bonnet hinges up to protect their head in the upcoming person to car impact....I didn't see that coming and like an airbag deployment it happened super fast. Straight into the pits from there, everything was driving fine but it became clear it was a coolant leak not smoke, it was billowing up onto the windscreen. Onto the trailer and home. I'll do a separate thread about the repair (once I work out what it is ), but the immediate problem was the bonnet wouldn't open because the front was pinched onto the front bar and would not release. Ultimately we unbolted the hinge from the bonnet, pulled it back a little and it released from the front OK. "There's your problem", the top radiator hose had popped off at the radiator.
