Hi all,

Have spent a few years in brisbane now and love the place. However there have been a few i know who could not wait to leave..

My question is "Do you think the river city is getting better or worse"

Personally i think that all these bridges and walkways over the river look terrible but overall the city is getting better!!

Post your thoughts..

worse worse worse worse worse worse worse!!!

used to be a great city 10-15 years ago. then too many people started moving here from other states and trying to make it like other towns. now there's too much traffic, too much traffic calming, too many people in shopping centers etc etc.

Used to be a great town, now it's just horrible.

I moved from Wollongong to Brisbane for work end of 07, loved the place after staying here for 2 weeks! However just in this short time I can see the increase in people and traffic and the other gripes people have mentioned. I guess I can't talk though, after all I'm part of that population increase lol Still though I don't mind Brisbane, but it's a bit far from the coast line for my liking.. I guess it's what I was used to

moved 2 years ago and although its not Melbourne in terms of POSHness, Brisbane got other things going for it

I used to fly to Sydney for work every 2 weeks or so and Trust me. Brisbane does not have a traffic problem.

i lived there for 3 months recently and loved it...would move up if i had the opportunity to.

my mrs isn't real keen on it...she says the city lacks culture.

Got it right.. Brisbane City is pretty ghey.

I have lived in and around Brissy for 25 years. There are some nice places around the city that are good to go too. You just have to know where to go.

Other then that it is ok. I prefer Perth personally, much more organised.

Brisbane sucks :D

Come to the beautiful Gold Coast where you can be getting a nice tan on the beach one day and then stabbed or shot the next . . . lol

why drive that far when we can get all that stabby goodness, right here in sunnybank? Now with added minor bird/masked lapwing swoopage for your enjoyment.

But yeah, brisbane is the place to be for sure.

      From Japan and back to Europe, my sh*tbox R34 GTT

      By GoHashiriya · Posted

      Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.

      Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?

      I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
