nah, got the crappy black auto with the RR panel losing paint and sanded back bonnet.

My red manual is a beast with 3 piece wheels and a custom rear wing. Just getting back on the road now to start club racing again but got my roadworthy and the discs are undersize so time for a new set. DBA will cost 1K for all 4 from Autospeed but I'm told by a guy in Epping he can get slots for under $500 (not DBA). I'll post when I find out.

Also got a green soarer and black laser lynx. give us a wave and feel free to stop and chat. :P

OK this is the price update. Slotted fronts ar $220 each, plain rears are $190 for the pair (cause they don't work too hard, even on track) so @ $640 I'm well ahead but I will have to get the heat sensitive paint out and bed them in properly cause I won't get enough driving in before Sandown next weekend. Always worth doing well anyway. The procedure is on the DBA website.

don't cruise. but i go shopping, live and go to uni around mill park - bundoora - greensborough.

LOTS of skylines around this area owned by ex VL drivers with attitude I must say...

Well yeah, what I mean by cruise is does anyone actually drive around this area that owns a Skyline. Bad choice of words I suppose :(

Still see ALOT of commodore drivers getting around here, I suppose this area has always been a tad bogan-ish..

[Edit: Shit, I just realised how old this topic was. Sorry for the post dig guys, just this came up in my search of the "Watsonia".]

    • To back this up, I'm always looking on the outside, seeing the level, and then opening it up anyway, as I'm worried the level I've looked at, is more so a scunge line. Then you end up dipping your damn finger in it too depending on the type of tank you're looking at just to make sure I'm not going insane.   PS, Mark, polish up the none moroso one a bit and then give it a clear coat. The Moroso one looks to be way shiner (not mirror polished, just shinier) and it'll still look weird with the two different alloys beside each other. Either that, or Id probably paint them a flat black...
    • Good old Orange Park hey... 😛   f**k I miss that race track
    • lo, it was a death trap. Good times. Got any Fatz Drift Day DVDs still available?
    • Yes, overthinking. Many PS reserviors are completely opaque. Our Skyline ones, for example. Have to remove lid, peak inside, swirl the dipstick, try to remember how to read it, etc etc. Normal. Radiator overflows are often sufficiently opaque and scunged up that you can't see the true level inside anyway, and have to open and have a peak. Besides which, I replaced the (massively expensive, even back then) plastic overflow in my Alfa GTV, back in the '90s with a stainless one that I had a good fabricator make up to be dimensionally same-same, that looks remarkably similar to the Bogan's Moroso one above, and I never suffered any particular paranoia that I didn't know how much coolant was in it.
    • Looks great, but I'm always concerned that it makes it difficult to see what level the fluids are at. Am I overthinking this?
