unfortunately I don't have $2 mil odd to spend on my hobby :/

Could always sell your first born

yeah that's what one of my mates does,

He drove to darwin once and outback QLD about 6 times last year as well as NSW and such.

unless he has back to back jobs drives every-where, big Diesel 4x4 with cruise would make it relaxed.

only flys when it OS even then I recon he would prefer to tow a tinny and risk it.

So if work get their way

in next 6 months will be doing

USA

greece

Kuwait

Germany

Germany second time

finish just in time for honey moon to europe.

that said think Kuwait won't happen...well hoping.

I wanna a go in jetski.

+1

they disturbed a LOT of people last night

+1

Picked up my missus and rushed to St Kilda sat by the bay with heaps other people. Was contemplating whether to get ice-cream but was scared that we'll miss it. Waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting........ waits and then decides to check fb and saw the cancellation.

Not happy Jane! But ice-cream and seeing the penguins made up for it. lol

Lol

Thanks everyone for the Wedding Congrats

Here's a proper video of the day:

Awesome video. Outstanding effort to get it all shot and editted in one day. They even included reception footage before showing the final video 1hr later!

I like the bit where my r32 is visible in the background :D

they disturbed a LOT of people last night

was meant to be a c130 doing a fly over on stkilda beach releasing angel flares:

however at the absoulte last miute they post someting on their facebook page saying that there has been a technical difficulty with the plane and that anoter c130 could not be organised, but if you wanted to see it then just go to the airshow.

what do we have like 1 c130 in vic and that's it?

IMHO it was a stunt designed to get people to pay to go to the airshow and was never going to happen.

I'd bet they never even got the appropriate permission to deploy the flares

Interesting theory.

Were you waiting for it too? Got to the end of the pier before we'd heard theyd cancelled. Everyone just sat around to enjoy the scenery anyway, and it was an amazing sunset.

Some navy dude was sent out to tell us it had been canned, and said the plane had taken off, they noticed something not right, landed and had a look and apparently it was much worse than they thought. (doesnt make sense choronologically, but whatever)

I reckon its funny because it highlights the lack of maintenance and tight-budget priorities of the defence forces you hear about. and also that it was supposed to be a celebration of the longest service record of any aircraft in RAAF history, is that a good thing? lol

I wouldn't say no to a free plane / boat / jetski

screw buying one you'd use it like 3 times a year, give me a dirt bike instead :D

birds get a dirt bike and all your jetski faggotness will disapear, real men crash on dirt not on water :D

Shitty weather? You scared of getting wet on a jetski? Better get the rust proofing paint if you ever buy one :P

    • 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.
