I was looking in my mirror and noticed the headlights first. Very shiny Shonen. MY car is as dirty as it's ever been at the moment. I was going to wash it ont the weekend but my friend died and I didn't feel like it for some strange reason.

Does your mate always insanely giggle like that? :D

Yeah thanks Moanie, we went down to the spot where he landed last night and had a sort of vigil. That's where I was going when Shonen saw me. I think it's really helpful to talk about the good times. It's always the best people too. I don't get it.

Its definitely good to reminisce! better to remember the good times, and i think it helps to cope with everything that happens after.... :D hehehe...its actually pretty funny the amount of stories and dirt you can dig up :) especially stuff you never knew they did!!! :)

Spotted:

Duncan in the Z mobile, enjoying some lah-de-da 'top down motoring' on liverpool st, crossing george st.

And he didn't even stop and offer me a lift!!! The cheek!

BTW, what happened this morning, you were early (9:05)...

lol

I think we should car-pool.

Richard

hahaha sounds like we both need to leave home earlier in the mornings lol

hoping to spot a whole heap of skylines in goulburn this weekend.....

mmm trackday...

Yeah, next time I'm staying at Leichardt I'll need to get you to swing by. I'll be on the cnr of Norton st + Parra rd. at 9am. Think you'll have to leave the missus to catch the bus though, Z's only got two seats, right?

Richard

I work for the government, for me leaving my g/f's place at 9am is painfully early!!

I still can't believe I've spotted you twice now in like a week... Stop stalking me.

Richard

haha yeah sorry moanie.......i was sort of in a hurry but yeah i remembered your plate so i knew it was you...

hey abo_bob sorry to hear about your friend.......

nah both the guys in my car......they were just laughing at the fact that we didnt know each other and were talking.....

i guess its a car thing....a skyline thing...i dont know !! hehe

but they just found it funny.

haha yeah black always looks shiny at night...but my car was pretty dirty that night.

:D

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • 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.
