I feel it's important to distinguish between Melbourne souvlakis and kebabs, as many people think they are one and the same.

Souvlaki = wrap, untoasted, usually made by Greeks/Lebs and bought from a walk in shop. No such thing as a doner souvlaki.

Kebab = wrap, often toasted, usually made by goat lovers/Arabs and bought from a van. You can get a doner kebab.

There is a lot of crossover, but in pure form, that's how it is!

kebab can use The land of goat sphincter rings bread instead of wraps too, which is heaps better imo

Souvlaki is greek

Kebab is The land of goat sphincter rings and that's the best kind, out of a van at 3am nothing comes close

As for the lygon lamb i've heard some mice/kitchen stories on it a while ago and haven't been in there since

mmm :S well least mine was made fresh and wasn't sick :P

When was the last time you all ate there?

less than a year

Very true, I should have mentioned this but forgot the bread they used when toasting. Souvlaki is normally a pita, the kebab can be The land of goat sphincter rings bread.

Yo bluejeans I haven't tracked the SS, but I've run them at DECA and they were quite good. Don't really have a basis for comparison as I've only ever done DECA with them, but I was happy with how they performed. Obviously softer spring rates you get a bit more body roll than firmer springs, but that's the trade off. Still way better handling than stock.

all good man, was just curious.

I was told that the BC ER's i was tempted to get are way too stiff for daily from a mate at work.. but then again i do like pretty firm coilovers..

im sure this time next month ill still be tossing up what to buy :/

46 looks out of place on that thing lol

Oh really

birds ride tonight if it's dry? (although the hills will probably still be wet :\)

Have you looked outside lol? Hills will be soaked.

was thinking of doing the same...

46 looks out of place on that thing lol

Yeah I agree - it came with it, the 46 and dunlop are coming off when I get my DRZ stickers on :)

It's not exactly slow, I rode my cousins ninja 250 and it felt like half as quick lol which is fair enough being a 400.. (obviously not as quick as my 650 though but then again it's not meant to be, just heaps more fun!)

factory wet weight is 146 KGs i've taken a lot of stuff off it and when you've got half a tank of fuel + me being only 70kgs front will come up :D

I also want to ride. And it will happen!

Also tempted to remove my mirrors and put on blocking plates. Can't find a decent looking set of aftermarket mirrors and I think it would look cool without them altogether. Just fear that I'm creating another defect mobile :(

Lol, I bought 8 dollar mirrors off ebay, bar end mirrors which i'll be mounting under the bar like this:

Good thing about motorbikes is cheap and easy to mod.. so far I've spent like $250 on front fender, rear fender eliminator, front light, rim tape, stickers, mirrors etc. cheap cheap!

A good learning curve for me as well on how stuff works without messing around with a car that you need for work/daily I just hope my front forks don't fall off when I'm practising wheelies

    • would a r34 gtr hood line up with gt/gtt stock fenders? after latch, front bumper and hinges are swapped for gtr ones? or would the fenders be too low or high in relation to the hood surface? ( I believe seeing somewhere that gtr front fenders use some type of riser for the sides, but do not know how that relates to stock gt/gtt fenders.)    
    • 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
