It's actually a Hardly Normal now according to Google street view haha.

It's directly opposite Maccas/The Good Guys.

Clicky for street view and swing the camera 180 degrees to find where Maccas is too.

I'm not 100% sure if I'll be able to make it at this stage.

Maybe if anyone knows of nice places to take photos, you could go take some snaps.

I spent a few hours driving around just looking for nice buildings and roads to park the car next to for photos just a few weeks ago. Just throwing out a suggestion :P drinks/games is good too!

Hi Guys, Thanks for the reply. I wouldnt mind doing any of the suggesions thrown up so we can meet up there and then go for it, i suppose this more about getting out and about and meeting some our fellow skyline lovers lol.

Im up for the phtoto thing as well, theres a place called Mount Riddley which is off the hume which isnt built up and at the correct angle you can get a good view of the city with the cars in the background. The road is Mt Riddley road. We can do this as well

Keep the suggestions coming guys

Hey RJ... whats planz after the meet at Maccas on Dalton road...??? got nethin in mind as yet...??? N yea.. i am good wid da shoot as well..

Edited by H00N

Well the options we've got is to go play pool/ drinks which isnt a bad idea since there looks to be a few of us, or we can go Mt Riddley and get the photos and this place has a lot of room so parking isnt going to be an issue.

If we want we could do all of the above and then drive to the airport look out after that and kick back there but thats all i got in mind.

Whats everyone think of that???

Also we meeting at the Myers/ Harvey norman carpark not the maccas

Put me down as a maybe. I should be driving past around 8ish as I finish work quite late - Will join you fellas if you're still there - If not, maybe next time - don't wait up :cheers:

Just on a side note... Isn't Harvey Norman open till 9PM - It is a Friday night????

was that the realy rough road we did on that midnight run :cheers:

Nah man, it is a inner city suburb, with real twisty roads.

It was one of the roads we 'should' have took when doing the midnight run, but I don't think most of us followed the instructions and we all made our own way there.

Not a good idea anymore, the cops are all over Yarra Blvd on a friday / saturday night. I couldn't sleep the other weekend, and decided to go for a drive to the Blvd at about 2am on a sunday morning. Was driving spiritedly, but then I got an uneasy feeling and slowed down to the 50km/h speed limit. A couple of corners later and i was confronted with a cop car on the opposite side of the road. Such a weird feeling, it was almost like I could sense something was a-miss lol.

Luckily I kept driving and once out of sight, I hid in a side road. They did a u-turn but didn't see me and I managed to get the f**k out of there without being hassled.

Haven't been back since. I remember the good old days when we use to go there all the time in our younger days. Sigh.

I know yeah.

I went to go check it out after the midnight run (the next day), it was great.

Went back there the next and a cop car pulled out in front of me.

I pulled way back, followed them for a bit then they sped off and I took the next exit and GTFO!

BTW, my Touge post was a joke.

i should be there for thomo but doubt ill make it by 730.. how long u there for ? and might head home after that anyways big day tomorow depends what u guys go planned..

lemme know how long ur at hardly normal and ill work out if ill come down or not

thx

Most likely will hand out there till about 815 or so and then get going else where depending on what we doing, if its pool/ drinks or go take some pics or sumtin like that.

Sorry guys, long day at work and I just got home.

It'll take me another 10 mins before I leave home and 10 mins to get there haha, I'm pretty sure you will have left for your next destination after an hour of being at the meet spot.

    • You're not the first person that's said that about this car lol. A Touring wagon GT in Spark yellow mica would be the dog's danglies 😆 I will keep an eye out for a future purchase for sure. The seats are almost like the OEM Recaros... electric adjustment for fore/aft and tilt movements except reclining.   
    • Yes!! I love these! It's a shame its not the wagon though!   Thank everything that's holy that it doesn't have the interior of the Aussie delivered ones. Those seats are so much nicer.  
    • I'm both sorry and thankful that you do that. 
    • 2001 BE5D Subaru Legacy B4 RSK (3rd gen) EJ208 (pink injector) Twin Turbo 280PS 5-speed manual Full time 4WD "RSK" grade which means all of the above LQC option which means stock rear spoiler  I got it primarily to export to someone outside Japan who was interested. These BE5 Legacy B4 RSKs are going through a bit of a resurgence right know in Japan as they are one of the few cars from the "turbo, manual, RWD/4WD, 280hp gentleman's agreement era" cars that don't require stupid money to purchase. Which for some people might be a good opportunity to get as a base for restoration. If I can't find anyone to purchase it I will certainly be doing that myself over the long term. Why? Because it's properly fast in stock form, handles well enough for a GT sedan, there's still enough aftermarket and (if you can wait a while) genuine part support to make it a restoration candidate (<-- that will only get worse over time so it's a case of do it now or choose get a BL5 4th Gen). Mechanically it's fine, has only 89,200kms on the odometer. The problem with this car is that the body and exterior trims are weathered from at least the last 10 years being parked outdoors. I'm the 3rd owner, the first owner was the one that had it for 14 years and barely drove it, had a low-speed front impact (which didn't damage anything behind the radiator support) and got it fixed and sold it. The 2nd owner put most of the kms on it and parked it outside for the last 10 years, hence the door rubbers have seen better days but if you overlook those cosmetic details, it presents pretty nicely. There is some minor rust on the LH rear wheel arch which I'll have looked at too at some stage.  Also as you'd expect from a car this age, the clear top coat is gone, leaving a satin finish on the roof.  Mechanically it's fine (as you would expect from a car with less than 100K kms) but the steering does feel slightly vague around the centre position at higher speeds. So first on the list is to get the steering rack bushes looked at. There's also the Lock button on the remote which doesn't work, but the Open button does.... it means that the anti-theft system thinks it's always open? It seems like if you open the car and don't start the engine within 3 mins or so the anti-theft kicks in again without any beeps or signals. So if you got to start it after that, it won't. You have to push the open button again. That's how I understand it anyway. Just a small irritation but not a big problem to sort out. There's only one mod, the Wangan SPL muffler. Just a tad louder than stock. It's a really good mod for those who don't want to wake the neighbours but still want to hear a more prominent unequal length header EJ20 sound. Anyway I hope to get all those things done eventually, that is unless someone wanted to import it to their country from Japan (where I live). I'm open for negotiations as I really would like a Skyline... but this will definitely suffice in the meantime 🙂 *Disclaimer: This is how I picked it up from the dealer, minus the stuff on the back seat. I haven't cleaned the engine bay or done a thorough exterior clean, aside from spray painting the wipers. 
    • Wow, even with the Audi logo centre caps. I love OEM wheel mismatches.
