Havnt been to Tbar for 2 weeks now..

We should definitely organise a regular meet/cruise for Toowoomba and surrounding areas?? Monthly JDM meet or something.. as well as cruise down to Downshift meets together.

Haha natro power ftw bro :)

... I've got 5.7L of natro power coming lol

Ah should be interesting!

On a side note, anyone know of a good detailer? need a cut and polish bad. Previous owner obviously didn't know how to look after paintwork!

Cheers, Luke

We do try and do a monthly thing. Haven't organized anything in the last month or so due to having surgery on my both of my feet.

Few of the guys are really not too keen on Downshift and JDM meets due to police presence.

^Does panel beating cover paint care? I assume it does.

If so, I believe a particular Toowoomba SAU member can help you there.

All I usually do is a bit of a hand cut with a cutting compound where needed then a full hand polish. Painters at work charge around $200 for a full buff and hand polish.

Sup Slarts! Working on a sticker for Toowoomba Skyline Owners.

Keep you posted.

Very good, my design didn't go down to well.

Try matt geach, can send you his dets if you want. He's always getting promoted at work and prices seem fairly reasonable

That would be great if you can mate!

Yeah fair enough.. havnt been to one yet. Would like to go to a track day though.

Ah not good, what did you do to your feet if you don't mind me asking??

How much do you 'charge'? ;)

Anyway, a reliable source who's been to a some of the recent downshift/jdm meets said to give it a miss. The meets are never incident free which may or may not include one or a combo of the following - skids, bogans, ulehs, fighting/bashings.

The SAU crowd is definitely a more mature and discerning bunch.

    • 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
    • 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.
