Har har mishtar Marc.

I'm as fresh as fresh can be. Soft as a baby's bottom.

I might go do my nails before they fall off. Then I'll go make andrew and I some breakfast of ham and potatoe salad sammiges. In between then, when andrew gets out of the shower, I'll go wash his clothes.

I reckon it would be easier to be at work :S

Oh yeah? It's... it's... ok yes it's boring. It won't be later if it rains though, the front tyre on my bike is starting to look like a slick. Eeek.

Did you geys get any hail the other day? SE Qlders only, before people from *cough* WA start commenting :)

Living at Cyrus' place during the week, I only head back home to Ippy for weekends. I was riding from Ipswich to Toowoomba and back every day for about 6 weeks... that sucked. It was comfortable enough, it just cost me a fortune in servicing and tyres :)

You bought a bike didn't you? Whadja get?

On another note I had a 10kg ham in the bag on the back of the bike, along with all my other crap, would have been 25kg hanging riiight over the back. Keeping the front wheel on the ground coming out of the tolls was a mission, so I didn't bother trying at the second one :) Considering I am quite possibly the worst wheelier in the universe, I was quite impressed with my ~100m effort :D

KR1S, nice! Looks very tidy. The son doesn't look too comfortable though :)

100m is very unusual for me, I normally struggle to get the wheel off the ground at all, I'm just too much of a wuss, though I think that's the main thing that's kept it rubber side down for so long. It's bloody irritating actually, my brother jumps on my bike (he has an R6) and pops monos and goes through 1st, 2nd, 3rd... bastard. The bike sure as hell doesn't have a problem, I just can't seem to twist the throttle far enough, my brain just won't let me. Damn.

My brother's race bike (CBR250) revs to 19k, it sounds like a mosquito, it's such a laugh to ride :D Even the R6 revs to 15.5k, it screams. Mine only goes to 12k but has about ten times as much mid range torque as the 6, which is just as well, cos I'm not exactly anorexic!! :D

Haha Will, nice one :) My soon-to-be sister in law's Charade doesn't have a tacho but the poor little thing sounds like it's going to blow up, it's probably doing those sorts of revs too! It'd be nowhere near as quick as the 'cino though...

Did you geys get any hail the other day? SE Qlders only, before people from *cough* WA start commenting :)

What Hail :D ?

See ya got a CBR in ya sig ...... my housemate has a 250 ..... ive chopped it :kick: so now he's desperately saving for a bigger bike haha

    • 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.
