Beyond vintage in leura mall. I know the chef its brilliant anyone up the mountain want to try something different head up there

I'll have to give it a crack; my missus works in Leura.

Silks Brasserie up the top of the main street in Leura was pretty good last time we were there. Beautiful kangaroo fillets with baked pear and seasonal veg.

Wysteria lane cafe behind the nursery in Leura had a damn nice pulled pork burger last week too.

Silks was great! Really nice service; friendly, knowledgeable sommelier; no pretentiousness, and even gave us a contact that had a wine we'd been trying to find locally.

I really need to get back there with the missus soon.

Finally got around to trying some local cuisine, and was pleasantly surprised!!

King Chef in Kings Cross... phenomenal Chinese, typical pricing, ~14.80 for mains, ~10.80 for fried rice.

I've tried most ramen in Sydney and I'm pretty sure I've narrowed the best of the best down to two:

  1. Manpuku Ramen in Kingsford. Main attraction is that they just do it right - which is probably why it's always filled with Japanese people. Handmade noodles, thick flavourful broth and their recipes are different to the usual generic bullshit that seems to be endemic in Asian food in Australia.
  2. Gumshara in Chinatown. It's in a food court off Sussex St (entrance is west off the northenmost arch thingy). Place is hardcore - they let the broth boil in huge steel pots all day until it's basically solid. It's so f**king rich you will be comatose afterwards. I recommend starving yourself all day, then doing leg day at the gym, then ordering the one that comes with a massive spare rib balanced over the bowl.

Hey all,

Thai- It's Time For Thai in Kingsford has always been nice.

I've been to Volcanoes in Parramatta a few times and it's not bad for the steaks.. 6.5-7/10. Better than Crinitis

    • Yeah good luck out there! Will be good to see a mighty GTST going harder than the GTRs
    • i will be there 😁
    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
