Coming To Melbourne For 2 Nights And Need Ideas!


Recommended Posts

Hey everyone,

It's my mates 21st in 2 weeks, and he's decided on having a bit of a birthday bash in Melbourne for 2 nights. But, it's going to be on a Wednesday and Thursday night! And if Melbourne is anything like Adelaide (where I'm located), not much is open mid-week!!

I went to Melbourne last year with a bunch of mates and had a blast! It's awesome the amount of random clubs you have in all the side streets! Melbourne's a lot more fun at night than Adelaide!!

I just want to know:

  • Is there any sort of decent club open on a Wednesday/Thursday night which is in the CBD area?
  • Does anyone know of a little pub called the Night Owl and if it's still around? It apparently just opened last year... it's on one of the main streets near the Flinders Street train station
  • Are those clubs in the Casino (up the very top part) any good? Worth taking a look?
  • Any areas to avoid?

It's basically 2 nights of getting absolutely wasted and then driving back home to Adelaide on Friday afternoon.

Any help would be awesome!!

Cheers guys

wednesday nite you might find a few places doing uni nights but you might just want to head to the casino and play some tables and drink the massive cocktails they sell at a red bar near all the machines, or maybe just head to chappel st but i dont know whats open there on a Wednesday. The clubs are the casino aren't that good IMHO. Thursday everything is open, places like 7, Billboards, f4 (used to be good, don't know anymore) Motel, ocean blue are the main places to go so maybe try any of them 1st.

avoid the casino clubs man.. all the girls are ugly. seriously casino is the only place where people don't really get knocked back... so it's kinda an all-comers venue.

wednesday night if you're determined to stay in the CBD i recommend Mai Tai, it's a cocktail bar on the corner of lonsdale and russell street.. then a few hands of poker at the casino.

thursday night... as stated, uni night.. so start at one end of the CBD and drink your way to the other :blink:

some notable decent clubs include: Eve on City Road, and Billboards (average, but cheap and lots of girls lol)

if you're still standing after that, hit up Charlton's.. it's a late-night pool hall in Chinatown somewhere.. a bit hard to find but ask around and someone will point you in the right direction.

Enjoy your stay :D

Oh yeh, billboards had $1.50 pots on thursdays like last year.. idk about going there if ur aussie though, billboards is fair sav lol, ditto with motel.. thats on satdy's tho

NEXT (Colonial Hotel) on Thursday nights on the crn of King and Lonsdale Street, but that more Punk, Metal, Party club.

If not King Street = Stripper Town!

I'm surprised it took 9 posts before strippers were mentioned, what's happening with the youth of today ? :(

    • Well, yes, every CU on the bus is available via the Consult port, but whether the scanner you are using is capable of talking to the TCU, the ABS/TCS modules, etc etc, is what is at question here. Many of them are only for engine codes. So, if you have one of those, you won't know if the ABS is having a bitch.
    • That's now. R chassis Skylines come from a time when the tolerance in the ADRs was a bit more....slack. My car, on 235/35-17, which is damn near the exact same size as the original 205/55-16, is pretty much bang on correct indicated speed across the whole legal range. That's demonstrated with constant speed run over 5km, and GPS speed. It's just the luck of the draw. My particular speedo head has to be the thing that is "calibrated" that way, because everything else (the diff ratio, the gearbox and the speedo drive**) are all same same as most other Skylines. **OK, so the speedo drive is a Navara unit to drive the R32's cable, not the electronic unit than an R33/4 would normally have with teh same gear on it. Otherwise, I applaud your OCD tendencies, and I would do the same if I needed to.
    • Not too sure, I believe the Nissan consult port does everything? Also just filled up the reservoir to full and the light is still on. The float seems to move up and down fine.
    • The speedo's can be very conservative, when my Mazda NC MX5 speedo is showing 118kph, the GPS, and a calibrated radar.... cop mate.....hits me at around 110kph +/- 1 or 2 kph, and that is on a 215/45 17, stock tyres size is 205/45 17 as well, so weirdly conservative with stock tyre size When my Commodore speedo red 116kph GPS had me at 110kph on 255/40 17, so again conservative Google says manufacturers need to set the speedo from 4 to 10% slower than actual road speed.....for safety.....and compliance  After doing some offset and clearance measurements to see what can fit the NC on 17x8 +40, without guard rolling or rubbing anything at my current ride height, I've decided that when my tyres are toast, I'm going to fit 225/45 17 and see where that gets me IRT actual speed of my speedo and GPS/radar From the online calculator I should be still be doing around 5kph under an actual 110kph when the speedo is showing 110kph My ADHD requires that when I'm doing 110kph on the speedo, that the actual road speed is actually really close to that, and not alot slower And going from 205 to 225 still keeps the car within the %/mm allowable in the NSW vehicle rules and regulations, which is nice, as long as I'm looking at the latest version that is.....LOL https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-13.464-Light-vehicle-modifications-Vehicle-Standards-Information-No-6-November-2013.pdf
    • Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.
