Hey Guys,

I've been living back in Brisbane for over 18 months now, to which the majority of the time my R33 has been off the road :) and with this I never really got into the car scene much down here...But the car will be on the road again in the coming weeks, so im looking at getting into it again.

Does anyone have regular meets during the week? I remember parking up at Mt Coot-tha with the gf on a thursday night a long while ago and there was quite a crowd of car nuts getting coffee's and what not....what's the go, does much happen anymore?

Back when I was living on the North Coast every Thursday night was the go, what about down here?

Cheers,

Sam

Theres usually the Corrupt krew meeet ups ithink? in Mt gravatt... or the Spit every sunday i thnk? not sure.. i hardly go to meet ups anymore... im just a lone wolf... :)

Excuse my ignorance, but who is ''the corrupt crew'? If there anything like the people I met once from boostcruising, ill be steering well clear....

But surely there some SAU meet ups every now and again? I saw Mud organise to go have coffee there last week, and i thought there used to be a dinner some weeks as well.....none of that ever happens anymore?

corrupt crew is SAU'ers and meetup for a few drinks and a cruise - look in events for chai meetup

if you want to stay away from the boost meets every second tues there is a hardtuned meet at different locations there is one tues 2nd (not 100% on location ATM)

omg you hate boost i love you LOL

theres not really much during the weeknights.. Thursday nights are cursed if you wanna get done go out on a Thursday!!

ill probably head out more when i get my full license back next month!!

cb cruises are usually good... most people are nice.. you get the few knob's in commy's but they are everywhere!!

maybe organise a a small cruise and events on here and a few people might meet up with you????

lets organise a cruise to the stains

im keen to see commo's crash into gutters =]

SAU cruise to the stains with no skylines or get po-po raped from the rear end :laugh: I've only ever taken my skyline there once and thats not happening again. I'm a Stains car sl*t.

I live near the bottom of Mt Coot-tha on Chapel Hill Rd, I'm down for weekly meetups too. Just moved up here from melbourne and bored shitless.

We used to do fortnightly meetups and a cruise to a food place of some sort for dinner once a fortnight back home in melb... missing the love (and the gate) up here.

i Went for my cruise last night..

Heheh funkymonkey i live near you... too close :S

Anyways its hard to do cruises with other people like meet ups and such cause you don't relaly know the level of the person infront of you and behind you... when i used to have my motorbike i used to ride with a few mates a few times a week.. man it was fun..

soon as i hoped into my car... not many cruises and if so mostly, people just trying to get used to their car and driving in formation...

Haha Funkymonkey if your really serious about going for a cruise.. PM me...

Thanks for the feedback guys :bunny:

Funky I used to live out your way and there used to be a bunch of people meet up at the carpark where sizzler used to be on marshall lane, good meeting spot imo.

But if anyone is keen to do weekly or monthly meets i'd love to try and organise something. Even if we meet somewhere fairly central and go for a short drive somewhere to sit down and have a coffee....it'd be nice to get chatting with some people in the SAU Community:)

What would everyone think of something like wed/thurs nights? We could meet in the Suncorp Stadium carpark on the Paddington side (away from the Milton Macca's bogans) and just go for a drive from there. Mt Coot-tha is close, could also go North from there straight up Hale Street as well.

Sound good?

P.S. I'd be looking to make it a regular thing so you'd have to bring your welcoming/nice attitude and not be an idiot on the road if/when we do go for a cruise. :banana:

I'd definitely be in for that... cept atm till I fix my gearbox issues I can't go over 70km/h (auto gearbox with no Drive gear). Was supposed to pick up the replacement box this weekend, but I don't think I will be able to, so I'll have to put it off till next weekend.

So just for the next 2 weeks if it involves goin more than 70km/hr I might have to just meet you guys there. Location's convenient anyways, I work in Toowong so comin out wed/thu night is no probs.

Wicked, sounds like we might be able to get a decent amount of people each week. I doubt it would be anything huge, but as long as we can go somewhere for dinner or a coffee I think it'd be alright.

Im in the same boat as you funky, i got a new engine going in hopefully this week, but like anything i'm sure there will be delays :)

What does everyone else think?

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
