Alright folks!

I've been in Brisbane about 9 months and keep meaning to go find where you guys hide your schnitzel burgers! In Sydney and Wollongong they're everywhere: only $5ish for glorious mayo-covered monster that you can't fit in your mouth :D I'm in Newmarket, and haven't come across anything like this around the metro/north - do you need to head out east to the more beachy parts or something?

I asked some guys at work:

"Where do you go around here for a mad chicken burger?"

"Um,...theres KFC up the road?"

"No, I mean like a big schnitty"

"....Red Rooster?"

*Facepalm!*

So spill the beans :blink:

I've just moved to brissy recently too, and I've generally found that anyone who grows up in Brisbane, knows very little about Brisbane other than their own locality. :O

Anyways, if you want some awesome chicken burgers you wanna go to the Pavilion in the West End. Absolutely epic burgers.

In fact. I think I might go get some from there this week.

If you want a good schnitty, then hit up Beachhouse bar n grill (http://www.beachhousebargrill.com). I've been to the one in Chermside, but I'd guess the one in the city's got the same sized portions. If you want a cheap filling shnit then you'd probably wanna go for a pub meal or an RSL or something.

i moved back to brissy 6 months ago after living in sydney for 7 years.

funkymonkey is right in that most people will only be familiar to their locality. but i've found that brissy isn't too big on schnitzels...everyone up here just eats maccas and kfc.

choice of food is definitely better down south. i miss the abundance of good indian, thai, japanese, korean and vietnamese food.

well when i first moved to sydney i thought it was strange they didn't have hot n spicy all year round. the first time i ordered hot n spicy in sydney, the attendant thought i was retarded, rolled her eyes and gave me attitude about just ordering what's on the menu.

but since living in sydney, i've been spoilt with the abundance of variety in food that i don't really eat fast food anymore.

+1 for both of these places.

I think if all you Mexicans can't stop finding fault with our town, then piss off back down South!!!

We like it and "most" of us know where the good food is and tend to keep it to ourselves to discourage the non-believers!!!

Having said that, Oporto, and almost every fast food shop I have seen in South East Queensland can make "Schnitzies"

Problem isn't the quality of the food, its the proximity of good food places to each other, like if you wanna decide between indian, chinese, mexican, italian or a pub meal you shouldn't have to drive 10-20km's between em.

Besides... you love us, we bring snootyness and over inflated ego's to your otherwise laid back society. :)

Anyways... so who wants to meet up for a dirty shnitty?

There are more good places than most know, but we're not telling. The quality of fresh produce here means even the most unassuming place is able to produce amazing food.

I might come along for a shnitz though.

    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
    • I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
