Get halfway through the 5th course (1 Martini, 5 Fancy Wines, and 4 VB's deep), realise you're drunk and Australian, so proceed to glass some cvnt in the neck, since surely your forefathers fought for your rights to do so...

Edit: Also, petrol...

Not sure if Westside joke or reference to Riverside Racing (also Westside)

Feel for the team though... Second round of the year and second sports sedan car fire

Also, beer between each course? That's either a long-ass meal or drinking very quickly. Either is not desirable when out and about eating good food

Yeah, I usually just get a bottle of plonk...

Much classier.

Beer is like water... it is essential to life and should be consumed in the amount of 8 glasses a day

When we did the chef's table at Vue Du Monde for the proposal

Started with a belvedere martini as per protocol (and a cocktail for mez)

Had a beer or 2

22 courses - all wine matched (inc desert)

Champagne course (63 degree duck egg with veal sweatbreads and WA black truffle) match was upped to a '96 Dom Perignon

when I popped the Q they gave us a bottle of Ruinart Blanc De Blanc on the house...

1967 comte de lamaestre (armagnac) x 2 for digestive

Then we went to the Melbourne Supper Club... for drinks... lol

That was back when I was in the game...anything I wanted was a phone call away.
Now I have to wait around like everyone else. Can't even get decent food - right after I got here, I ordered some spaghetti with marinara sauce, and I got egg noodles and ketchup. I'm an average nobody... get to live the rest of my life like a schnook.

I read the above and honestly thought the whole ultra fancy proposal was more schnookish than being a regular joe.

But hey, that's just me.

I can't stand people who are impressed by such things. Especially women. Man, that discussion about 15K rings had my actually chuckling at work. I didn't think people were actually interested in that kind of thing, like, not really

we were already going to the dinner anyway...

How many standards would that have been? Surely you didn't put away 22 glasses of wine plus the rest lol

No idea.... they aren't full sized glasses... but most were also refilled so I would assume an average of 3/4 standard for most of the wines except the dom which was 2 full standards each as once you have opened a bottle like that it has to go

^ i still do that.... till the missurs became fructose intolerant. but when she aint home...

22 courses? goddamn. i did 12-15 once and it was intense. i felt disrespectful for not being able to eat anymore, physically.

and i only had like 3 drinks. otherwise would have exploded.

I also dont like sitting down grazing like a cow for 5 hours.

    • 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.
