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

Ill take a look at whats around the baskins place and talk on thursday :D

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.

      Original window sticker?

      By Celticsfan03 · Posted

      Hey everyone. Is there a way I can get the original window sticker (maroney label) for my 1995 R33 GTST? I doubt I’ll be able to ever get it but it’s worth a shot to ask

      It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪

      And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil

      Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
