ok guys due to a discussion with a few of us in the members rides thread, it seems that an SAU-ACT photshoot will be a nice idea.

basically we just need as many of us as possible to get together so we can take some group photos of our rides (and us). :)

so we will need to find a good time so that lots of us can come (e.g. not at 11am on a tuesday lol) perhaps something like latish afternoon on a weekend as the sun will be highlighting the cars nicely and most of us will be able to make it.

so we will need to decide:

Time:

Location: best spots or locations for photos?

also does anyone have good equipment? or r u good at photography? if anyone is then we'd be happy to have you there to take pics. my sister-in-law is a graphic designer and has access to some really nice printing equipment so perhaps i can get some really nice, big, glossy prints made up after and give them out on a following meet?

anyway, feel free to put up your ideas and oppinions. lets make it a really nice one!!! :(

Andrew.

p.s. yes Gts_Duy: you can bring the seca lol!!!

For sure, loving the idea.

I've got a decent camera, not great, but okay. Has taken many a photo in 1600x1200 resolution, absolutely fine for online purposes, but not so good if you want these high-res glossies.

Anyway, great idea, we can hit up a BBQ, cruise, and photos in one day.

Is anyone particularly NOT free any weekend?

I'm screwed for almost every Saturday,so Sundays are naturally better...Having said that,I might be lucky enough to have the second weekend in September as my rostered weekend off.Maybe a day polishing/detailing on Sat',photo's and cruise on Sun'?Either way,I'm in if it's Sunday Setember 12th!

i reckon i'd be up for that. A chance to meet you all again and have alook at all the purrty cars. also i think the weekend of the 11th 12 sounds good as i've already got it off work and my b-day is the 13th :wassup: . party on the saturday night and a mad cruise on the sunday, wat a sick b-day this is gonna be. :)

yep, sounds sweet for me, i cant beleive the coincidence that your birthdays are on the 13th september....mine is on the 27th of april!!!!! how weird!!!!

lol Angus if u need a ride i should be able to take you, unless u live in woop woop, in that case i suggest u hitch-hike and take a ride from a stranger :headspin:

I don't have a Skyline but can I come along for the cruise???

    • 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. 
    • 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.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • 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
    • 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.
