We could do a catch up on Friday if you boys would commit to coming down...

I'm full this weekend man, Friday work 5am-6pm then off to qr for the drifting, then work Saturday morning then arvo party then piss up with the uni boys

Nice pics :thumbsup:

Big fan of that skyline rocking the same wheels as me. Love the whole "OEM+" movement.

Cheers for the offer Chris but Nick is right. Would be a bit tight in the back. Whoever gets the seat directly behind yours is screwed LOL

Realistically, only my wife could get comfortable in those rear seats :P

I have had 4 in the car with me driving, wasn't very comfortable but was do-able. 3 is fine have had a mate and the old boy make trips down to Brisbane and have both been comfortable.

I think I've got a few good pics of your car Chris. Once I've got them sorted I'll send them to you, or post them up or something.

Those of you who missed out on last nights dinner, it was great. Steak was sooo awesome. Good chat about the direction that people want the club to go as well.

There's gonna be another dinner next Wednesday. Any suggestions as to where? I've had one suggestion being the German Club. Never been there so I have no idea what it's like.

Post them up on here, I hardly see any photos of my car beside the ones that I take.

Like I said on SAUQLD definitely keen to make the trip down just at a time that's a bit more suited.

Actually that's an idea Chris bro we should round up some of te toowoomba boys and head down, Tom would fit right in at te German club :D

We will try to work something out. Why would a South African fit right in at a German club? lol

Will definitely come down on a Friday night if organized

Going through pics now Chris.

Is 2 weeks enough notice for you guys if we organise a dinner for a Friday night? Or do you think a dinner in Toowoomba would get a crowd? I'm fine with heading your way if it means we'd have a good turn out.

I will be there for this don't care about being tired for work :)

Toowoomba crew, here is the details for this coming week's dinner. It is a Wednesday night, but after this one we'll head up your way for a Friday night dinner.

Last weeks dinner and chat was great. We had about 10.5 people there and a lot of laughs over some pretty awesome steak.

We all agreed that next year we are going to have a bigger variety and more frequent events. A lot of them will be car oriented but also things such as go karting, paintball, etc

This week were heading to the German Club in Woolloongabba. Sausage, beer and car talk once again. In?

Who: anyone who wants to do more with the club and be in on some awesome events

What: dinner and car talk over sausage

Where: The German Club, 416 Vulture St, East Brisbane (opposite the Gabba)

When: 7pm, Wednesday 14 October 2012

Why: To discuss new and better club events

How: over German sausage and beer.

So if you're new or old to the club, love your car and want your voice heard, come along, enjoy some German sausage and have a laugh.

See you there!

I was looking after the girlfriend's son. He's 3. He only joined in half of the conversation so counted him as half a person :P

He had a fit when we were coming in and he saw Noel's GT-R. He was jumping up and down saying Skyline, Skyline! Gt-R, GT-R!!

So that was the 0.5,

What is in the works for the /Friday night dinner up here? Do I need to find a place for dinner or we could even have a BBQ at my place?

This kid sounds like one smart cookie

Gigity ;)... No rear wind down windows in skyline causes issue but anyway.

What's been crackin Nick?

Nothing much. Been quietly going about my business. Also been procrastinating a lot when it comes to doing up the car. I have a couple of parts I'd like to get put onto the car but I just can't be bothered. Perhaps one day I'll hit up my mate and get everything done.

Nice to see you've got big plans for yours ;)

You might want to get a mechanical diff centre, some better brakes and good tyres to suit your car's new found superpowers! (if you haven't already).

So.............when are the Twmba boys gonna meet up and do a little cruise and/or spirited drive? Its been a rather long time no?

It sorta feels like we're (when I say "we", I mean we as a group and not me having a different sub-species of car :P ) a dying breed and all the time, the number of skylines keep increasing around town. I swear I've come across no less than five 33s that have to be new to town.

    • 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.
