Have to agree with TJ. Bit late to drop out now and leave Hamish to pick up the tab :)

I'm still working on Nikki and getting him to come to this; unfortunately it's a bad time of year for him, so he still can't commit..............yet

I agree....It's like leaving a deposit, once you decided and left a deposit, it should not be refundable.

And I still think we should tell other non sau members asap, so we can get the numbers up again, so Hamish won't have to lose money over this.

i asked for the thread to be transferred but it hasn't been yet.... migt put up my own thread :)

its just that the non members cant link o this one and i'm lazy lol

i wasn't aiming that comment as kris and cas... there are a LOT of people that promised they were coming and then just ignored pm's :/

meh, i'm over pushing for it now ;)

the less people the easier and anyone who was at this years GOR cruse overnighter will attest that a small group is a good thing :)

i've amended the menu so i'll pretty much be breaking even give or take a few $$$ :)

menu is looking great!

I would assume not given we hadn't paid yet.

Hence i let Hamish keep the cash i gave him.

My fault for not planning correctly.

For those that did not front with the cash and then pull out last min... bit harsh.

And for the people that all said "in in in" for the EOI and then disappear... that's just even worse.

anyway, lets not get al negative in here..... :(

final food prep is today then i'm driving up tomorrow, doing cruise notes and getting the food in the fridges!

Should do that, even just copy and paste the important info, or I could do that for you if you don't have time :)

Mt Buller Cruise / Dinner

Saturday 14th November/Sunday 15th Noveber:

Hey guys, I am holding a 2 day cruise / dinner event @ mt buller this month.

The drive will begin @ 10 am this Saturday morning in the Sandown Hotel car park (next to Sandown Raceway) from where we will head Mountain highway to Sky High @ mt Dandenong for a chat and photo's. From there we will be heading over the Black Spur for the awesome twisties and some lunch in Marysville, and then off to Mt Buller road for a Hillclimb, where we should arrive at around 3pm

Once at Mt Buller we have the whole of SKILIB lodge privately booked, rooms are "private Queen" or Bunk style and are included in the price. There is a full dining room that will fit 30 odd people as well as a large living area with fireplace and a seperate TV room.

Dinner will consist of 5 or 6 courses depending on final numbers, with plenty of finger food and snacks on arrival, and is also included in the price.

I am a professional chef and have worked for a decade in some of Melbourne's best restaurants, and will be catering the event.

remember to BYO alcohol! and lots of it!

On the return, we will travel back down Mt Buller road and then back across the Black Spur and through Gembrook area, then back to Melbourne.

Mansfield BP has been notified of the cruise and has guaranteed a supply of Ultimate for us, so any fuel woes are sorted!

The cost of the Cruise is $100 per head, which includes dinner and accommodation.

The official attendance thread can be found at: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Mt...ic-t292028.html (note this is a members section and will not work if you are not a paid member)

this was originally a members only event but is now open to the public.

sorry for the late notice but i've been super busy organizing this and trying to cram in an 80 hour work week!

bank details:

Hamish Hampton

BSB : 033152

ACCT : 241795

please use sau username as reference and shoot me a pm :(

How many were you planning on Hamish?

EDIT: Do you think Ash would make a closed thread on the main board to notify people of this event? Just cause I know not everyone subscribes or checks events regularly

    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
