well, the kidlings were absolute terrors tonight; Pete I cant see myself taking them out to an 'event' again for a while - very poorly behaved (I blame the crazy ex! :P)

Got so stressed trying to tell them off all night and get them to behave, in a crowd of ppl who paid good money to enjoy a sporting event.

As it turns out, the soccer was pretty bad...... poor form Adelaide United!! Great to see a 15yr old do well though.

good chatting again tonight Matty.

doubt we'll make the cruise - got to sort out WTF is going on with the front left brake line (got a slow pinhole leak). See if I cant get a set of braided lines made up today - see how busy morphett vale ABS is at lunchtime and if they can make up a pair for me. 3rd time now Ive had something "break" with the stock rubber R32 brake line hose on the front end of the Stagea (r32 calipers on 324mm rotors). Time to bite the bullet I suppose and sort this out once and for all.

Who's going to the xmas hardtuned cruise tomorrow night? Pete and I are most likely heading to the meet point, and suss it out from there.

I'll be heading down for a look, just near my house so too easy, hopefully the weather clears up.

seems a bit excessive, 2 kids do a skid, cops beat them up and then don't even get convicted of assault! what a joke!

This country is going backwards

go to america , where ever stop involves being throw to the ground , but I would be honest to say cops dont mess with people as much as here, unless your a total muppet , in LA you can run 30 over the limit as long as everyone is !!! and dont slam lanes like a race car.

but in usa if a police car gets behind you for more then 30 seconds , your going to get pulled over for a "check".... late at night , just you and a police car, your farked even if your clean and not speeding he will stop you

Big THUMB UP to ABS Morphett Vale to making me up a pair of front braided brake lines before they closed for the day.

Installed, bled, but not tested as yet.

Wont be doing tonights cruise, got people over now

Pity we wont meet up tonight brendan but at least your brakes are fixed.

By the way guys, Traffic lights are down at the henley beach and holbrooks road intersection. Power failure. Coincidentally, without the horrid light sequence in place cars are flowing through quite nicely :P hehehe

Undoubtedly the most practical thing for a Microsoft product then :laugh:

*runs and puts on tin foil hat so Bill Gates cant find me :P*

cool house Damo

as a kid in highschool we used to party in a old SAC minute man silo, the top was open but the bottom was flooded with deep nasty water and dark as hell. the police came after it got out of hand and after that they sealed it off with a concrete lid and rebar .. guess its hard to hide 100 cars in a empty paddock in the middle of know where on a friday night..haha

they would make a sweet house , damn thing is huge in the middle and a long way down . these days it wouldnt be far from town with the expansion of the city now.

in the midwest usa grain belt the're still is a bunch of old sites , I'm sure you could get one cheap as hell.

    • 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.
