not sure who it was who just asked, but some one just asked if some of the car manufactureres will not be there this year - the answer is yes thats true!

Ferah are you doing promo work for it again this year?

Nope this year, but im definantly going to see the cars on display :)

RACV discount FTW :)

I couldn't find info on this at the RACV website?

i wanna go to the airshow

Going to an airshow is like one of the most dangerous things you can do :O

I heard that Melbourne and Sydney will be holding one motorshow between them starting next year - and no longer having one in Sydney and Melbourne..

if you ask me that blows.

Yeah... alternating every year b/n Melb and Sydney. So this will be Melb's last annual Motor Show!

At least we'll get a show every 2 years. Will definitely strive to attend every one. The other 5 capital cities don't have any international motor shows any more.

Just came back from the Motor Show... some pretty nice cars. Wish they'd actually let people into the expensive cars, but they're probably paranoid someone will scratch the interior.

Highlights were the BMW M1 concept car, Lexus LF-A, and the "Autosalon"-spec Toyota Yaris. Pity my camera ran out of batteries 10 mins in... no photos sorry.

I only ever go every couple of years anyway so this suits me fine.

went last night, wasnt that good really. Alot of car manufactures were missing, including Ferrari and Aston Martin.

last year was better

Yeah was a bit disapointing this year. Was good to see the 370z on display though. Everything else was a bit ordanary. Was definately better last year.

went last night also. thought i saw you but wasnt sure if it was you or not lol

it was pretty average this year. nothing that special. didnt even notice the 350Z lol even though i walked passed it to drool over the GTR again lol

Was the R35 GTR there?

Yes

didnt even notice the 350Z lol even though i walked passed it to drool over the GTR again lol

You didn't notice the 350z cuz there wasn't one there :blink:

Don't worry, I know what you meant

the Mitsubishi girls looked pretty good to me this year.

They were the best looking ones. The other ones were real skanks. Dunno why Melbourne can't muster up decent booth babes like Tokyo Auto Salon. I walked past more hot girls going back to the carpark than I did in the entire show.

Hadnt been to the Melbourne Motorshow before, only the London one so wasn't sure what to expect.

370Z looked good, GTR looked stunning and got quite a few pics of it. Best stand would have to be the Mitsubishi one. Only spent a couple of hours in there and for $19 wasn't bad. :P

Yeah it was. As Ash said had to go drool over it as well.
Yes

Yeah awesome! :P

Any chance the Nissan Girls were handing out Brochures of the R35 GTR?

BTW was the Bugatti Veyron there?

the Mitsubishi girls looked pretty good to me this year.
mitsu girls have been the best for the last couple of years now

PICS!!! Please. :P

hmm i wonder how i missed this thread.

one word for the motorshow "crap". it basically felt like car city, 20 car show rooms but you couldnt take any car for a drive. The mitsu girls were very nice. but yeah. atleast i didnt have to spend $38 to enter the place (2 ppl)

if the one in two years is this crap i would hope they dont have one at all.

Summed it up nicely, worst motorshow I have been to since I can remember (I've been going for at least 10 years now), even the cars for auction weren't as good as previous years (even though there isn't much that can be done about that, but still lol), inside was quite disappointing.

    • 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.
