Thought i would start up a thread as my other one was abit off topic and this is for general stuff...

Post here any local interest, anything relative to newcastle and surronding areas etc.

Any potential cruise or meets, introduce your self, post up reminders for meets etc.. whatever you want. any other ideas, post it!

Thought it would be a good idea to base some networking for locals, and start getting a strong scene happening.

Cheers,

Anthony

I've got some cruises in mind but I'm not sharing just in case you Kent's decide to go without me :P hahaha..... Either that or I'll share and call shotgun!

But yes, PUB was on the agenda!!

im waitn for u matt and the rain to piss off so we can do an old pac run

Looking forward to it, my hands are tied until

The car comes back... I was hoping for

It 2 weeks ago, but trying to be patient ;)

A few ideas for routes I have are

1 Glendale along to west wallsend and along John Renshaw turning left at the sweeper to Mulbring and through to Cessnock and on to Bellbird down past sweetmans timber to Wollimbi pub for lunch. Take Wollimbi road to the F3 and home that way. Or could change the meet point to Freemans for any Central Coast cars that want to join

2. Glendale, Mulbring , Cessnock then along to Broke and take the road to Millbrodale and into Singleton for lunch. Leave Singo and go along Queen St past the school all the way to the end and turn right for some nice country road back to Branxton and home from there

That's the only two I can think of at the moment

yea this rain is bullsh!t...

my front seat is generally free..... just saying ha

The left or right one? :P

Yeah well we'll give it a couple of days and see what happens ;) I am nervous now!!

Yah!!! A newcastle wasteland!

Can I call shot gun now Anthony? Providing mines not going...and matt hasnt claimed it Of corse.

I've seen nothing but red dirt and computer screens for last ten days, flying back to Newcastle tonight. The rain will be something different for me!!!

ha hopefully yours is up and running so we can have another 34R in the mix!

I think even a general meet and greet could be good for SAU Newcastle...

Should we start with a rough time... like maybe mid next month?... need to think of a Pub, overlooking a big carpark maybe?...

any ideas?...

Not mid next month as that is Texi time ;) but either side of that should be OK!!

Oh, and the car is with JEM its in good hands, it's just that I worked on it :P

Ok, early next month is abit busy as well I think the lowdown has a show on the 30th I was thinking of going to.. And there is also a car show in Newcastle on the 1st I think..

Could maybe do next weekend, or around the 7th of next month?

    • I havent bought a manual cover for the dash yet and no cluster change, won't bother me too much, I just need to get that auto box gone, manual in! I miss my manual. 🤪. We started last weekend and managed to get the box out. Planning to start putting it in this weekend and then order a single piece tail. We were super careful to take time and not damage anything. It's my first time working under the car.  With my S15 mainly worked in the bay. This time, it was a headache because of three or four bolts only. They simply didnt want to leave thei homr and the one securing the tailshaft, another above the GB, and the one securing the lipstick was a shit. Mates mate, Davo caught fire 🤣, nearly opened his chest up with a grinder 🤦🏽‍♂️ and both mates nearly had a plate from the box land and slit their head open. Fun times. We all survived. Not the easiest working with limited access on jackstands. As I'm sure we can agree these are the memories which make us love our car. For all three of us, was an awesome weekend and Sunday 3.30am before tools down was a fantastic effort. I need to upload pics, but looks like it needs to be via Url now. We used to be able to just upload pics back in the day. It's been that long! 🤪 Im currently spraying rustoleum under body, not because it's rusted. It's super clean, but just so it's protected for the next 10 years. There was a few surface rust spots. Which pretty much wiped off with a 3M scourer.  Really impressed with how well the previous owner maintained it. Bank account went down so quick! Service, then GB - managed to get a spanking new 34 genuine box from Nissan. All the rest of the conversion parts from Kudos.  Went with a Nismo short shifter. New pedals and Exedy Clutch and FW. Ordered the Prp Rear Main Retainer kit which should arrive Friday and my first engine mod part just like I did with my S15 will be the Tomei Expreme Turbo Outlet. Already on order. It'll likely sleep next to me on a pillow during the coming months. 🥰 Last build was on my JET200GT profile and on SAU and Hardtuned I had documented the build. Planning to try to do that again. Brands feel scarce now. Wish we still had ARC and Apexi parts readily available. Exhaust - need some advice on this. I had an Apexi exhaust on the S15 and loved the tone. My mate had a HKS HP Silent on his 33 and suggested I go with that to avoid drone. I can't remember hearing an RB25DET running that so will likely need to wait for a meet or something to hear it.  Not after big power, just enjoy building it, and drivability with minimal negative attention.
    • Have a chat with Ben at Moore Performance or Jesse at JS Performance.
    • Thanks both. All good advice. Reminds me of drilling through stone wall for drainage pipe 😬 I'll let you know how I get on if I still have use of my hands afterwards 😅
    • Finally got shipping number for the intake and throttle body, shipped by UPS, so "should" be in my hands sometime next week, fingers fracking crossed
    • I'm so far behind in the jobs I have to do at both work and home (including car) that I have become immortal. There's simply no way that I can die now.
