OLD Mark

Interior is schmick, getting up early tomorrow to head to the car wash.

Was filling up for tomorrow at BP brighton and a blue S15, that CA 180SX with 2 tone grey/black, and a silver RX7 FC showed up behind me.

Getting excited for this one, convinced my mate in a JZX100 to come.

Hope no one had big dramas with the cop's blitz.

I'm at home enjoying my pool and scotch. Might be out for a ride thru the hills later :P

Anyone who went to the cruise, let us know how it went. :banana:

the cruise was a good one with about 50 cars, the only cop issues we ran across was the accident blocking south road and the express way separated the group but the cops had there hands full prying apart a couple of Commys and a few other shit boxes. a tiny bit of rain then lots of sun on the way out

and the other minor problem was NO PARKING in Victor Harbor ? cause the market was on, but beside that it was a great turnout with some new faces would have been nice to get all the cars in a line up for photos in victor, oh well next time

thanks for a good cruise, look forward to the next one.

cheers

NO BLITZ YEAH!!!

MASSIVE THANKS to Bec & Lindo for the organisation & invitation :banana::P ....it was a great drive on some seriously fun roads.

Special thanks also the (Boobvia) Bec for the collection & the pressie (silly lady it was not necessary) also to Michael Coppla for the photo shoot prize & to MR Nick from Smooth Garage for his kind donation.

Finally from the depth of our hearts a sincere thanks to all the SAU members who attended & those who also donated $323.20 ... today meant the world to us. It is a pleasure to be "the OLDS".....remember, if you can't find someone to talk to...you can always talk to us !!!

OLD Jules & Mark

PS ...hope to see you all again on the 1st Feb 2009

Edited by mark03

was good to catch up with a whole heap of people at the meet point....spewin i couldnt go on the cruise but ill defintley be going on the BSM cruise next year without a doubt!!!!!!!!!!

well done to everyone who donated to a cause that is in need of every bit of support!!!!!!!!

Sorry I couldn't make it out, the slave cylinder gave up on the GTR which means I have no clutch lol. Glad to hear you had no cop trouble... they're doing a huge blitz at the moment. There's massive amount of cops on the streets these nights!!

I'll be out on the BSM cruise for sure, though!

Today was so fun and a damn good experience. Got to see some pretty mad cars and talk to a few people.

Went off well, small patches of rain on the way but mostly sunny, no caps. That car accident was the worst bit, split us all up which resulted in my and Mark (blue S15) cruising for the majority of the way to Victor, untill BAM white 32 GTR, Red S13, White S13, and a few others all of a sudden were tagging along.

Then spent about 15 minutes searching for a park :blush:

But had mad fun, the fluro tape was a great idea too.

Can't wait for the next one.

PS: Anyone got any photos of my car (full stock white 180SX with gay exhaust) or the ONE AND ONLY Chaser (Dark green with Volk SE37's just incase) please post them up, my mate and I would appreciate it.

Tom.

thomasino, i was in rbware the white gtr that caught up to you, man your car is like a boat in the rear end, and when you over took that mitsi 380 near a corner we thought oh no,! lol was a wickid cruise everyone! only shame was the crash and getting split up from people!

oh, you were in rbware? i was sitting behind you for a fair chunk of the run in.... until i was overtaken at a buck and change by the dude in the auto 13... in a 2 car gap.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
