Keeping baskins on thursday means it's always there for whoever shows up on any given week. Doing a dinner, you'd be better off making it another night that's planned. The thursday seems to work well though, so I'd leave that. Imagine if some poor bastard didn't check the forum and didn't find out no one would be at baskins because we're all at carindale sizzler or something lol. Drive there for nothing then. I vote leave thurdays alone, and organise something else for another day

thats correcto mate.

thats how ive done it for the past year or so with funkymonkey thats how ive done it with Tristan and 32_dave and it has grown to where it is.

Yes, i dont care for asian food even though i eat it every single day. dont forget brandon that your taste isnt the same for everyone else. dont want to be abit of a flamin mongrel but no one really cares for travelling out of there own suburb to try something their not gonna like..its risking a good 15$ + petrol to come out there.

park at market square for what? car park dents? park across the road for safer parking for what? birdshits and the occasional dent and runner???

oh and joe please dont confuse my meets with SAUQLD :P i cbf going to sauQLD to get them involved if they read it here and feel like icecream and a car wash great :D go ahead..

dont forget when funkymonkey and i used to do this it was never car wash then go home..

it often lead into a whole bunch of other things its just due to my cars not on the road and people who have to go home after the wash due to work, usually finishes there

im usually the last to leave..

but i dont want to turn you off creating a meet..if you like dinner then as josh said.. build it and they will come.

please by all means get the sau community together!:)

Yea nismo is right ay, ill wait till thursday and ill bring it up, i just figure we have a good group to start with from the baskins meet. Then ill post it up in a new thread :)

Oh and i didnt mean change thursdays every week john, i just meant a one off just for a change.

Oh and the first time i came down to baskins i was a bit late and everyone had gone off sumwhere already so i know what thats like :P haha

But i think aslong as its posted up on this thread a few days before then its their fault for not cheking really :D and id have said we all meet at baskins and go somewhere close then go bak afterwards.

but at the end of the day its like nismo said, whoever turns up, turns up

That's my point exactly.

Not everyone gets a chance to get on the net as often as some of us do (namely me... who lives on it). Or what if their internet is out because Telstra are being as helpful as usual and too busy assraping people to fix the service? I just think if you're going to organise something then it should be for another night, even if it's a one off. As tristan said, the Thursday routine works really well. We should leave that alone. I wouldn't mind going out two nights a week on the odd occasion, and I doubt many others would have much of a problem with it.

some of us work, or else i'd be there.

I'll have to settle for the top gear sprints, at least QR puts them on weekends

Onya smity. top gear is the same shiz. time attack gives a lot more time on the track which is why most of us go for it.

Cya at tg one day bud. :P

Now whaddabout the rest of the soft serve bunch?

I'll have to get a day's off for that... Maybe after I've tuned the car after this month. If Streeter's got the stock for the ecu and boost controller that is...

Anyone going for the cruise at all??

Tas: Those catco and x-force cat all come flanged fyi.

Noel: is the whole ERD team going for the cruise? I might dropby and have dan check my fuel pump. Someone mention about having that checked before getting it tune just to make sure its not fu**** and not able to supply fuel at the right pressure. I think its fine though but wouldnt hurt checking.

      33 GTR Broken front wheel knuckle

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      That's probably OK. That's a face to face compression joint between two surfaces with the clamping load provided by those bolts. So.... it's unlikely that the bolts will end up feeling that load in shear, unless the clamping surfaces are not large enough, bolts not got enough tension on them, etc etc to prevent the two faces from moving wrt each other. Which... I would hope the designers have considered, seeing as it's probably one of the most important things the upright has to do apart from resist collapsing in its own right. But yes, it would definitely be worth asking them what their safety factor on that part of the design was. I tend to think that the casting, being a casting, is not necessarily the strongest bit of material in the world. It's about an inch square, and when you think about the loads that are being put into it, you have to wonder what safety factor the Nissan boys (and every other OEM engineer who has designed all the millions of other uprights that look essentially the same) used to account for defective casting, aging, severe impacts on the wheel, etc etc.

      Those bolts would be orders of magnitude stronger that cast aluminium though.  And its mainly clamping force, not shear they are dealing with?

      Except all that twisting force that is breaking a cast piece, appears to be going through 4 bolts in the picture Johnny posted of the BryPar one...

      R34 auto to manual conversion help

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The smart approach is to use the gearbox loom from the manual car. Makes it a lot easier - just plugs into the switches on the box and plugs into the main loom up near the fusebox. Then you only need to deal with bypassing the inhibit switch. The other approach requires you to use the wiring diagram to identify those wires by colour and location, perhaps even indulging in a little multimeter action to trace them end to end to make sure, and then.... you will have the answers you need. The R34 wiring diagram is available on-line (no, I do not have a link to it myself - I would have to do a search if I wasn't able to go to the copy I have at home).
