mysfit snow trip 2003

guys, just a thought and i would be interested in your invidual feedback

whenever we go on cruises, we tend to end up in groups of 3-4 and never really get to meet the rest of the crew. it is my opinion that this club/association would develop stronger bonds if we had stronger group relationships

therefore i propose: a trip to new zealand for a week in 2003 for the purpose of skiing and getting to know each other.

being together in a hotel for a week would create plenty of opportunities to meet different individuals that you may not normally converse with and also to pick the brains of people that you may feel uncomfortable asking questions of via the forums. for example, how cool would it be to get meggala all to yourself for an hour over a drink to ask for help with your project or boostmeister for some tips on building bits and pieces for your baby.

the reason that i propose the 2003 snow season is that, there are probably a few people on this forum that would require a bit of time to save the necessary dollars and organise time off yadda yadda. it is actually cheaper than i thought but of course, you would need plenty of spending money

not to mention the fact that the snow will provide plenty of opps for rumbo's etc

this is a link to a deal that harvey world travel have for this season and i envisage that we would organise something similar next year

onarun, i am unsure of approx dates but obviously next winter is the go

at this point i am just trying to gauge some interest

another option for people to consider is a groupr supercruise for a week to targa tasmania

meeting in melbourne, a few days before and putting all the cars on the ferry, obviously this would be more expensive for those of us that live north and west of melbourne but hey these are just ideas, so lets hear yours

have a look at some of the deals these guys can do

this is certainly a good option as we all get to go to targa and achieve my first objective- group cohesion

besides staying at both of the casinos is awesome

and let me tell you there are some great roads for cruising in tasmania

I definately like the idea, dun know about the whole new zealand thing though. All those Skyline owners together for a week with no skylines...I can't afford that much piss :cry:

Actually, the idea does sound alright. Have to see if we could work out something for like the June/July holidays or something. Depends on prices I guess, Í don't wanna spend too much money that could be spent on paying off loans or mods :wink:

ill see how the money situation is closer to the date but it sounds like a hella good idea.

I went on a tour to NZ b4 with a big group but didnt know all that many of them but it was still hella fun.

Imagine how cool it would be with all the sky boyz and galz, much in common.

While were there lets all chip in and buy a car to kill ehehe that would b fun. ever driven on snow in a $500 car ahahaha all class.

how cool would it be to get meggala all to yourself for an hour over a drink to ask for help with your project or boostmeister for some tips on building bits and pieces for your baby.

i pity the ppl who get stuck talking crap with me, onarun and birty

Birty, VirginBlue do Brisbane to Sydney for $107

Rod I guess the main thing to work out is do we want to go somewhere where we have our cars? or not.

NZ might be a good option at this point with no cars...and then *thinking ahead* we could have a big national Skylines Australia meet later down the track when the club is properly up and going and all bring our cars

ONARUN has mentioned this before, I think :wink:

    • Initially I thought having a pair of Recaro seats would be a big bonus, it turns out these do get a little uncomfortable on long journeys (my fault, not the seat). I had a look through the GSM Performance website at reclining seats and booked an appointment to visit their show room. I got the Recaro Sportster CS for the R34 from here, was very happy with the service received so of course a re-visit was in order. Unfortunately the two Corbeau seats I had chosen aren't on display but they had 4 other options available. Two seats dug into my back, one dug into my legs and the other was perfect. I also found out that Recaro seats use a larger bolt pattern so some adaption was required. Luckily GSM offer some universal adaptors that should solve this problem. I searched the interwebs for price comparisons and Corbeau themselves were the cheapest at £300 cheaper (for the pair). I asked GSM if they could price match, unfortunately they couldn't. I later received an email saying Corbeau would honour them the same discount, but the purchase was already made. I did however order the brackets from GSM, both arrived on the same day. I started with the passenger side seat, knowing this was going to be a little trial and error. There are 3 mounting holes at the front and 2 at the rear on these JURAN Racing seat rails.  With the adaptor brackets mounted, the allen cap bolts started to push into the seat, NOT GOOD!  The rear mounting holes lined up but there were issues at the front. The holes were 1/2 hole out, so the brackets got a tickle with the drill to modify the holes. The supplied bolts weren't going to be long enough and a spacer was needed to stop the adaptor bars from bending. A local fasteners company supplied be with some nylon spacers and longer bolts (M8x30, although these will be replaced with 35mm long shortly) A before and after I pre-drilled the front bracket before making a start on the driver's seat to save some time. And in no time at all that was in the car too. The all black seats have transformed the interior and these are MUCH more comfortable. The only downside with the new Corbeau seats is I sit a little higher, but I'll happily accept that over discomfort. The Youtube video can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wPyttKPktXA
    • All 3 I guess. The car came with the JASI Aero 4 door Type R Full Kit unpainted so this was one thing at the top of my list to complete then I noticed there were body panels parts for this kit so i picked them up along with some black mesh to fill in the front bumper and front side air vents. car is at a paint and body shop atm completing this work. Next I will be addressing the internal bells and whistles, great summer project I can do with the kids.  full interior removal - ,boys car sound deadening - pads and spray ,boys stereo, sound, lighting - Big 3, GTT or bigger alternator ,kids head lining - dye black add star lighting mod ,daughter. That's it for the next 5-6 months. I have some motor maintenance  work i have to plan out. oil filter relocation, gaskets, mounts. beyond that, mind is starting to turn over if i can use a DET intake plenum, block off turbo ports & pipe in a air intake.      
    • roller coaster of a ride. Alarm system was removed & main harness was repaired where possible. still no fix just random successful starts. moved on to the replacing the ignition switch and relay. well all this troubleshooting & repair has been going on, the car is at a paint and body shop being pushed around. Ive been going down there on odd days after work to get it sorted.
