hey guys, speaking of parents knowing parents, my dad grew up in beaconsfield, and his 3 brothers still live around launseston. My mum also grew up on Flinders Island and now my sister lives there too. It seems like everoyne knows each other over there, my mum went to school with David Boon(the cricket dude)!

Tasmania is cool , i remebr going to the cadbury factory when i was little.

when is this going to happen?

I am trying to sell my car and may not have a new one by next week if I manage to sell it.

But when it happens, I figure a couple of ideas on public highways aswell as the backroads, I know of one in particular that has some twists and turns. What kind of roads are you guys interested in?

  • 4 weeks later...

umm... looks like Dave didn't respond to that Post... He just received his 180sx a few days ago.. Still needs roadworthy and registration.

Anway he should have it on the road soon, that way the S13 and 180 should both be runnin a cruise to Hobart soon..

That was his plan last time I heard. maybe in the next week or two it will happen

that has got to be the WORST weekend for me, lol.

I am celebrating my 18 month anniversary with the girfriend.

The following weekend I will be in launnie if it matters.

Hmmm, for the next three weekends after, I will be working the Saturday. Could be a problem.

But, when you are up, drop me a line, and at the very least, we can cruise in Lonnie on Sat night.

Zsky, will be finalising times in the next day or two. I will keep you posted....

i'm not sure weather i will be able to make it now because i have fan clutch problems on my car well not so much the fan clutch but a fan blade to fit it as the original one dosen't fit and i am having a hard time trying to get one that does, i bought a davies graig fan clutch as someone on this forum recommended it.

sorry I couldn't make it if in fact you guys came down for a cruise.

I am free weekends, but work every second saturday, sundays are nearly always free for me.

let me know.

btw slaz: thanks for looking for interest in my car, I can't see anyone buying it though, I will keep thinking of what I want to do.

RB25!

heheh. I am thinking of the same conversion to the 180sx, all i need is $$$. *sigh* I love those RB engines, they are awesome. So smooth, compared to the SR20DET.

No, I did not go for a cruise. I work every second weekend too (normally) but I have to look after the shop for the next two weeks. Should give me some time to do a bit more work on the 180 (boost, general tidying up)

A few friends are going down this weekend (inclusing the Silvia I imported) but I wont be going down until probably three weekends away.

Let us set this date. Get back to me if you can make it. Would be great to finally meet you (and your beast)

Zsky, give your stamp of approval too.....

    • Am I correct in assuming that the R35's are getting the classic skyline haircut off the odometer?  Quick search on carsales, there are 33 08 and 09 GTR's for sale, only 2 of them have more then 100,000km's on them (116,075 and 110,000 respectively).  And somehow there are about 25 for sale with around 60,000kms? Looks like the classic skyline haircut to me =/
    • @Stringycheese  Have you only gone to the one blue slip workshop?  There will be a heap of them where ever you live, good odds that the next place you go to will pass the car.  Unfortunately (or fortunately?) every blue slip / engineering workshop will be different and will be happy passing or failing different things - despite working from the same set of rules. It's kinda like 2 lawyers arguing over a piece of legislation, each saying their interpretation is correct. Might seem strange that this happens when it comes to getting a modified car passed, but this is very much a thing. A big part of the game is finding an engineer / workshop that is on the same page as you.
    • Bah. I daily mine. ~60km per work day, 10-12 thousand km per year. What's the point of having a dirty old Datto and leaving it in the shed. It needs to be driven and enjoyed while the govco allows us to do so. It will only be a few years before we're forbidden to even start up internal combustion engines.
    • Judging by that spring perch and the normal looking spring on it - not a coilover. Well.... it is a coilover, just a stock format coilover, rather than what everyone calls a coilover.
    • Yes it is. We get stock from Nismo directly. I'm happy to take photos/video of it as proof before I ship it with timestamps or whathaveyou.
