Thanks for the good feed back Sloane.

Unfortunately i cant take any credit for the homebush end of things, it was primarily a NS and HT organised event, i just linked the SAU photoshoot cruise to it as a final destination.

More ashamedly, i didnt actually make it the the Homebush end of things, we got within a few hundred metres but had a close call with the unmarked cop cars outside. So the few of us left from the Palmie shoot moved on to a nearby industrial area and had a small one car shoot.

Looks like you guys had a great turn out though, and i think this is definately something worth doing again.

I'm going to go off and work out what i can improve for the next one i organise. Any feed back or suggestions are more than welcome.

No, they were busy appreciating some of the NS/HT boys cars. Even spotted a copper-chopper circling around too.

Looks like we have two wrap up threads going. Any chance we can get a title change to Homebush and Palmie so we can just comment in one spot??

Great looking photo's there, i really wish i'd made it into p1. I'm working on processing the ones i took and i'll post a few up asap.

As an aside, anyone else get a visit from Jerry from fast4's asking for pics? the palmis shoot did.

Damn, I love that R32 GTR, sucks that I missed it. Great photo. It was raining about the time I was to leave for Palm Beach so I just went straight to Homebush, managed to avoid all the rain, and the undercover cops thankfully

Thanks for the wrap up Sloane.

Hello guys

For those of you who were at homebush carpark and noticed the Black Volkswagon golf.

The owner, my friend,& work collegue recently passed away in a car accident. :D

My other friend is in intensive care whilst his family and friends are by his side.

The third friend was lucky to only have a fractured wrist and walk away only in shock...

Its a very upsetting moment for their family and friends.

I hope that many of you are more careful on the road and nothing like this happens to someone else....

News links that you may want to read on the information.

Yes, just like the Hawkesbury Gazette indicated, fog could have been a contributing factor. Having been past there before a few times, fog can just sit in that hollow from where he was coming out, and you wouldn't even see a big sucker like a 22-wheeler. You'd know, being a RAAFy. Sad. Nice guy?

I noticed the black Golf on the night of the photoshoot, but didn't get around to speaking to him. Very sad to read about this kind of thing, I hope the family is doing ok.

It's incredible how good an intersection like that can look in clear conditions, yet how completely different it would be in fog.

RIP. Didnt know the guys or see the car, but it is sad news none the less.

Just wanted to say thanks again to all of you who pitched up to the Palmie end, and i hope those who went to the homebush meet enjoyed it too and dodged the defects and exploding airfilters.

Big thanks to Kory too for bringing all his kit with him and letting me have a play, i have to admit i'm useless with flash photography so i have a hell of alot to learn.

Now that i know which pics hot4's is going to use i'll be posting up the shots that arent going to be used or arent similar to those that are.

Theres some nice group shots and standalone shots of the black and red 32's coming up in the june edition of Hot4's.

Unfortunately my favorite shot is going to print, so you'll all have to wait for it (those who got to homebush might have seen it on the screen of my camera).

Thanks for all the thanks Simon and Rallye and everyone else! Your photos turned out schweet also Rallye and i'm sure Simons will also once he posts them up :)

Is this photoshoot getting dedicated/featured towards the deceased? I hope it gets a mention, just goes to show that even the worst of things can happen to sensible people and its not a "hoon".

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Waders360 · Posted

      I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way

      This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.

      Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.

      To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all

      300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
