if youre looking for a hotel that is decent priced and smack bang in the middle of the city, try the pacific in hindmarsh square.

as for nightlife, i myself like the smaller underground clubs & bars - i reccomend Sugar on Rundle St. and even Dragonfly in Victoria Sq. on a Saturday night. Theres heaps of other joints that are popular - Electric Circus, Garage, Dog & Duck, Vodka Bar, or even HQ like Batmaan Bin Suparman said above (lol). And while you're down here, you might as well check out the worst Casino in Australia...

3-4 weeks time??? You'll be here in time for the SAU:SA dyno day ... come watch. :)

The Riviera on North Terrace city is a nice cheap place with guest car parking at the back. Very close to the city night life.

Mars bar is definately one to check out, Krishy told me so.

you didnt complain when you came along Damo.....

Vote 1 for Damo to be the SAUSA drag queen.....lol i see Pete's eye light up :banana:

Mars bar is good if you going with some leso friends as they can pick the leso chicks from the straight ones....and there is plenty of that in there from what i hear....

So if your into your RNB tunes there is a few places....Sugar, Mansions (even tho the DJ sucks), Swish, Club 58 (it plays all sorts), Earth (changing their style of beats...more trance, electro, house stuff), HQ (plays everything and anything and plenty of hotties there), Garage, Cargo, Rocket Bar, Vodka Bar, Tool i mean woolshed, Red Square (its gone plain wierd there now), Dog n Duck, Palace (classy boobies), Crazy Horse Revue (average boobies), Land of promise (exactly what the title says), Casino for cheap drinks just dont let Dave (scandy) take your money, The Elephant, RNB at the CRIB if you like hanging with Wanksta's (all brothers from africa yo), Pier one at the bay, Dublin at the bay (chicks behind the bar are stunning), Grand at the bay

So thats a fair few places

+1 for cruise, just dont get your car impounded while you're here lol

Have been on an awesome cruise before which cruised through Gorge, Chain of Ponds and then the back way to Angaston, then head back towards the city through the twisty roads of the Barossa - yes, I'm biased lol.

It was an awesome cruise though, Scenic as and some good food too. (Bakehouse Cafe Williamstown FTW)

Definitely check out the hills we got here, everything else has pretty much been covered (yeh adelaide sucks) but check out Handorf on your way out for breakfast/lunch before making the trip back :bunny:

      Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.

      Wheel Sizes & Offsets For Skylines

      If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.

      If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.

      MAJOR FUEL ISSUES 25det neo r32

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
