ahh ok

im hoping to get the friday and monday off work so i can definately put my car in, otherwise id get there at prob 10 after i had washed her

also anyone heard anything bout using nos on the dyno yet?

well they were moving them in at what? 6? i cant remember... probably earlier... some people didnt get in til about 9 and later from memory

sorta... cabin are ridiculously un-organised (if they are doing it again this year)

but they wont like you rocking up at 10pm that's for sure.

depending on where we are in the venue, you might not be able to get in until the next day with everyone else setting up thier displays etc etc.

Yah they start moving in them in about 5-6pm depends how organised they are..but the peak hour is about 8pm with people finished work and waiting out the gates to get in. Get thier early if you can...last time took friday off to prep my mates car for the autosalon (it took a farkload of time) it was worth it. the earlier the better and more time to get things organised etc. :)

i totally agree.

last time i reckon we were even still a bit late.

The time it took to get in was ridiculous.

But there will be meetings no doubt coming up and we can thrash the ass outta the smaller details like that when we know more form the organisers.

My hands are feeling sore already... the prepping takes FARKEN AGES!!!!!!!!!

doesnt seem like there's too many girl promotors there last year.. by checking the picture above.. what about more girls this year? :P I reckon that will cause some attention- my 2 cent :rofl:

As RedLineGTR said in the post (just above the picture)

Some people last year, the only group photo we got with like 10-15people missing :)

Some of those 10-15 people were the girls.

Although... i reckon there are about 20-25 people missing lol!

haha i'mma gonna go get some foam and some latex on sunday n get cracking...

and yes last year we had around 12 girls at the stand... I kno coz I got to put lettering and other decals on every1's (cept 4 ash's gf) bum! :) oh I was in heaven lol.

    • You're going to miss not worrying about rust in the strut towers like the Skyline shitboxes out there
    • A few little updates that weren't filmed due to not taking long to do or not interesting enough for their own video. My new K&N Air Filter arrived, I went with an RU-4180 which matched the dimensions of the universal cone filter the car originally had.  The battery had gone flat, while that was charging I tidied up the spaghetti wiring at the bulk head and down the sides of the engine Next job was to swap the stereo The Kenwood harness had the female ISO plugs cut off and the male ISO plugs cut off the adaptor loom and joined with bullet connectors. I ordered in a repair loom through work and re-did it all. New Kenwood unit installed (Android Auto, DAB, Bluetooth, Reverse Camera) The bonnet/hood gas struts have been poor since collecting the car. I couldn't find any suitable replacements locally so took a chance on a pair from AliExpress.  The originals don't use a retaining clip to secure the cup onto the ball fixture, would explain why I struggled for 10-15mins trying to pry off the cups. The ball fixtures unscrew using a 12mm spanner, new ones are the same size. Sadly no photo of them fitted, you're not missing much lol The dished Momo steering wheel got replaced with my Momo Tuner, turns out I ordered counter sunk bolts for the horn trim ring (like they normally are for the steering wheel) instead of allen cap (flat seat)  A terrible photo of a Quaife style gear shift knob I've had stashed in my tool box for many years after purchasing the incorrect thread size (I can see a pattern emerging with ordering incorrect parts...) Also threw in a cup holder and a (empty) Boss Coffee can, because why not  
    • GT-R clearly the better choice! The 300 is certainly not insaly fast but has a decent amount of poke. Does a nice little drift around the corners with a decent amount of throttle. It's VERY predictable in a slide too.  Feels so progressive! People probably presume there's a 25 year old driving it based on my behaviour this week! 🤣
    • Yeah Jap import. Fairlady Z then! I'm a bit the same.  They've been on my radar for a fair while but then just impulsively decided to buy one!  Was going to just buy an NA and add turbos to it later but decided to save the f'ing around and just buy the turbo version. 
    • Thanks mate, well done to you too! Yeah not looking forward to doing any major work to it!
