missV35...wow, "there's a ladeey in da house" sings me~~~~

SKiZO....twins? hahaha...unless you are Asian, I highly doubt it man...Yeah, I noticed ur V35 was dark blue and a sedan~~!!! Not many of these dark blue sedans in Melb...in fact, I have not seen another V35 on the road until the Meet yesterday....I've got quite a few bling blings on mine...just to make it 'special'....but then again, who am I kidding? The Mrs says "ur next car must be 4 doors, no turbo, and auto"....hence the purchase of V35 sedan..."cry cry cry"....

Unique things to highlight from our meet:

Only 1 car has original orange indicator (mine)

Only 1 car has rear windscreen wiper/rear camera (siu loong bao's)

Only 1 coupe has original 18" rim

Only 1 car has rear aero spoiler

Only 1 car has sunroof (V35Sky's)

Only 1 car has factory weather shield on the window (V35 300GT)

Only 1 pair of badgless bootlid (yeah, I'm running out of idea)

Added: Probably the best of them all... 1 40th Anniversary coupe with cream interior/full leather was "downgraded" to regular premium with half suede leather/black interior. Sorry to the owner but I just can't help it... :)

LOL yeh thanks for reminding me!

I didn't know it was the 40th anniversary addition!!! didn't know what I was looking for! All I wanted was black interior....

Oh bummer....if I'd only known.... :angry:

There is someone on the forum that has my interior now.

We can get it back if you want :angry:

It was great to meet up with all you guys. Good to see we had a few turn up for the inaugural Melb V35 Meet :D

Got to see what everyone had done before experimenting on my own car :)

Had to put the heater on full after I got it.. It was so f**ckn cold! Hopefully we can go for a cruise soon when we get some sunny days.

BenzLe...

And you thought I was gonna post that comment! I kept my mouth shut, but rs73 went and told everyone how silly you were...LOL...

Once I get my 2 x HID kits, halo kit, and frosted parkers, I am gonna bake my headlights and once the technique has been perfected, we can all have the baking day....hehehe. Any interest for my factory HID?

Hey everyone ;)

Guess what colour my car is? ...... SILVER lol most of the V35 skylines ive noticed are silver !

It is a 2 Door coupe, very beautifull car inside and out :(

100% the next meet i will be coming.

rs73 - i have the orange indicators aswell

:(

Hi everyone,

Sorry i missed the meet... work commitments. Although my work has provided me with the neccessary funds to buy my fantastic V35 so i'm not that upset.

I will also fess up to still having the orange indicators. A few more and we might outnumber the "clearies".

I'll definitely be at the next one though and it looks like i'll be the only one with a 70th Anniversary model that still has the cream interior. ;) Sorry BenzLe!

Hey guys how are you all doing?

Time for the second Melbourne meet? Perhaps a cruise? The weather is certainly a lot better now, it is a sunny 26 degrees outside as I write this message now!! :happy:

I was thinking about a meet at a hand car wash where I have some personal interest, we could meet up in the morning, get our V's nice and shiny whilst sipping on a nice latte and having a chat.....and then go for a cruise.

The deal is, we could get a deluxe car wash for half price (usually $30) and a free coffee for everyone. If you are not interested in having your V washed, you don't have to of course, you could meet us later or meet us there and just have a coffee with us.

Obviously the hardest point would be to find a suitable time for everyone to meet so I will set a time a few weeks into the future and we'll start planning it to see how we go.

So details as follows:

Date: Saturday 5th of December

Time: 10:00am

Place: Blue Water Hand Car Wash, 468 Mt Alexander Road, Ascot Vale

Cruise: Travel to St Kilda (via Lygon Street) and cruise down Beach Road to Mordialloc. (Just an idea)

Any takers?

LOL, we should be alright, there are plenty of hands on board, however I am not expecting 50 participants, I would suggest a great number would be 10 to 15, don't think we will get many more than that.

We got 7 to our first meet!!!

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
