Hey guys and girls,

Finally bought a place on the gold coast, so i'l have to meet up with all you guys!!

PLUS, cheaper insurance means that the decision on whether to buy an import or not has been decided with a biggggggg assssss yes!! From November bring on the sun and bring on the cruises...

Cant wait to meet you all, Matt.

PS-Anyone else out around Hope Island/Robina?

Quite a few brisbanites go down the coast every saturday night. Meeting spots down the coast are the Broadwater Car Park. And then just follow the cars from there.

At the moment but, most the brisbane skylines aren't going due to different problems. But as soon as we are all fixed, I'm sure we'll be down there again.

I own a white R33 skyline..

Hey matt how are ya...The Gold Coast does have a fairly big import/car scene. Broadwater carparks always chockers and there's always at least half that amount again driving around in groups, you know cruising and what not.

Just watch the skylines though, all the qld ones seem to be off the road at the minute :D Oh well, I should be back better then ever in around a month.

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.

      Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.

      There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.

      yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
