Spotted a silver/grey R32 with nismo sticker on windscreen about 8:30 this morning on Haydon Drive, received a wave too! :P

Also spotted a black R34 GTT just a few seconds before and also saw AdamACT33 drive by but don't think he saw me, looked like he was in his own little world. :P

There is real flood of Skylines in Canberra. Dont get me wrong I lerve spotting my fav cars. I just see so damn many they have to be very special now to get my attention.

I'm also wondering why there isn't more organised gatherings, cruises and road trips.

For those of you who have been on a few roadies it's such an awsome sight to see.

Oh and I see a Pod of Whales (several R33's) outside or driving by work every day.

There is a good looking R32 GTR cruising down the Monaro Highway almost every day with a realy nice note to it. ATM I am gawking from my daily driver (ford) and must look like a nutter.

I take that on the chin - your absolutely right. *runs away embarrassed*

It's just so humilating going to Jerra without my Line week after week! I feel so bogan in the ford.

Heres a tip......get over it!

Yes your GTR isn't up and running, yes you're currently being raped of money you deserve and yes you drive an old school Ford.........

But we don't give a flying fu** about your car! We care about YOU!!!!

You're someone quite a few of us really care about and you could come on a bloody moped for all we care, as long as you're there, we're happy.

Christ if it was about the cars then i would have been booted from the club 5 months ago in shame, yet i'm still there every week and one of the main members in Canberra and i'm going out on a limb here, but i'd wager if i stopped coming there'd be quite a few people that'd miss me too.

There are a few members that make SAUACT what it is, and you my friend....are one of them.

sin this is only as long as when you turn up you are wearing just a leather biker cap and chaps, and clutching a rose between your teeth. you can grow the thick moustache while you're saving for the moped.

    • Impossible to remove the housing while turbo is installed on the manifold on the engine. So I have to do it anyways. I plugged it so there will not be any debris in there. Will vacuum aswell 
    • would a r34 gtr hood line up with gt/gtt stock fenders? after latch, front bumper and hinges are swapped for gtr ones? or would the fenders be too low or high in relation to the hood surface? ( I believe seeing somewhere that gtr front fenders use some type of riser for the sides, but do not know how that relates to stock gt/gtt fenders.)    
    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • 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
