I wouldn't get too agro on the day, we don't want low life scum for sure, but we do want more members and ppl who think skylines r kewl. Who knows, we may get someone selling their commonwhore or falcoon and joining the import fraternity.

'More bees to honey than vinegar'.

But weeding out the scum, how do we do it??? its a hard one, maybe a Breaker Morant 'rule .303' is the G-O.

I think it would be fairly easy?

Since nearly everyone coming would be in a skyline themselves then they would only have friends with them and I'd imagine they were trustworthy.

I'm paranoid though. Always get worried when I see people checking out my 34. :rofl:

Back to the photo shoot:here's a heads-up for anyone wanting to take photos this weekend that aren't as knowledgable as gtir_94(not a p##s-take-his photos came out pretty good,I reckon):go and get the current issue of SPEED magazine.In the middle there's a section all about do's and don'ts of photo taking when it comes to cars...penned by some of the good mag' phtographers themselves.Might help us out a bit,I guess.

And as for lowlife thieving scumbags,maybe as a friendly gesture,when we're standing next to someone we don't know by face looking at various cars,introduce yourself!I pretty sure we all have a grasp on SAU nicknames/names/"handles".Not only will we be able to say "G'day" personally to people we only know in cyber-Skyline-space,but it might just spook off these idiots if we meet 'em face to face..."I'm LTS Jayce;and you are...?"

haha i remember, at the pizza night at APK iu turned up early, and andrew (GTS_DUY) and me where out the front for about 30 seconds waiting before we realised and introduced ourselves. it was pretty funny!!

There ya go gtir_94, the film crew can now film your car being towed hahahaha

Been there man, had ABC TV do some filming of me getting defected as part of the police/rtas 'Summer Blitz' of 2003.

Wasn't impressed, particularly when the inspector told me I was 93dB, but once I got to work and looked at the defect notice he put I was 110dB.

With gangs and stuff as suggested, thats the reason I think a few guys, including myself now, keep what they got under the bonnet close to their hearts, and not become show-ponies the moment someone takes a little interest.

Doing it later in the afternoon will save me a world of trouble with the g/f... am scheduled in to spend time with her parents/grandparents in Syd that morning - she doesn't like the idea of me ditching that for a car photo shoot!

My vote is for any time after say 3pm.

I say we meet up at 1PM, go for cruise to the cotter have the BBQ and then investigate the photos (would be almost 3pm by then). Also the showers are meant to be clearing sunday morning, so fingers crossed.

Sorry guys, as much as i want the sun, and to not think of the rain, i just heard on the radio that saturday will be like 17 with a bit of sun. Then showers developing in the afternoon. for sunday they will continue, and also a chance of snow! :S

So it aint sound good, But ALL fingers crossed for that sweet sun to break throu

Ummm...should we still stick to the 12 o'clock meeting point(the Flags)as we've all been on about for the last 3 weeks?Only that we may trip up a few people if we change it to 1.Then we can Barby/eat/tell stories before doing misd arvo' photos?

yeah pm me for my number.

i already have tridents and i'll call him asap, sunday morning.

worst comes to worst and it pisses down we can always go for a cruise somewhere and have lunch.

would be a shame to waste the day after so much effort and planning.

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
