I did Sydney -> Adelaide (lunch stop) -> Perth in 27 hours..got delayed for 6 hours on the Nullabor waiting for petrol station to open!

That was in a beat up Tarago..wonder how quickly you could do it in a 'line?

PS - Nullarbor has the longest straight stretch of road in Australia, around 180km.. :rant:

I'm NSW born and breed but Sydney sucks! May I'm saying that cause 2 of my cars were broken into within a short space of time but I've had enough of the city. I'm looking to move out of the city.

Melbourne has a certain charm to it but I can't bare the winter there. QLD is fun but maybe that's cause I've only been there a few times and there is so much more to explore.

Next place to explore is Adelaide. I'm going to get tanked up down there on nothing but red wine.

Queensland rocks my jocks like a hot blond on a summer day...

Maybe cecuase I've had soooo mcuyh fun up there than any other place (cept maybe Great keppel Island) every time I go there... its like topical, sunny most of the time, easy goin people, on average most of the owmen are better lookin than melb or syd, and have the best mix of cultures... all the ones I love anyways :D

Well after a few months in Melb, have to say for the likes of me, Sydney is by far the better city. If your into coffee/cafes/art then you may prefer Melb, but i miss the weekends on the harbour on my brothers boat having a schooner. :D

And the Waratahs...well i cant thinko fany excuses for their pi55 poor form, other then why would you go to training when there are so many other better things to do in Sydney, notice how its the Brumbies that are winning the Super 12s, repeat Canberra !... get the drift :)

Yeah, lived there for 4 years. Lucky I was at Uni or I would have had stuff all to do.

Hated living in Sydney. Darwin was nice lotsa beer drinking and Backpacker (grab a Helga). Townsville is alright but small. Melb is just miserable, nuff said. Adelaide shuts at 8 pm weeknights unless you go to Crazy Horse. Perth you always end up with sand in your Latte.

My heaven will be in Bris within earshot of Lakeside when they reopen it and staggering distance from a pub (make that uni pub) with a good pool table and 24 hour rugby on a giant plasma tv.

I stayed up on my uncles apartment on the GoldCoast. Man how things are so relaxed there. The peesp are all so relaxed and fwendly where as in sydney everybody is so busy busy. Also forgot to lock my hertz car up for like 5hours and came back with it still untouched. Give it the same time in sydney and your car would have been broken into, stripped and bonfired. :wassup:

Still i wouldnt live anywhere else.

that's the other thing that shits me up the wall and then some about Sydney... the c0cky f**ks that run nightclubs and the fact that you have to wait HOURS regardless of if you have women with you or not. What's with that? Its changed progressively these days where it just ain't fun to go to commercial clubs these days... better goin to underground ones, low key bars and pubs. Never had that sort of thing in any of the other states i've visited

I have to say my fav spot in Oz is Cairns. Try and get up there once a year. Got some great roads up there that I'd love to tackle in something more powerfull than the Metz I usually rent! lol.

And the nights are full of generally hot locals to try your luck on and ****ty English Backpackers as a fail safe to fall back on if things aren't going well!

And Roy we'll change your mind on Melbourne when we get you onto Sandown and Phillip Island.

      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.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      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.

      By cosline · Posted

      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

      Spotted on the street....

      By Rezz · Posted

      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.
