I'd say his mate with the teg is getting there early and saving him room (thats my guess anyways)

nah, my mate steve with the R34GTR is saving us a couple of car parks (that's if he gets his useless arse there in time!)

I will try and get down there early to save a bunch of carparks for the SAU crew :D

Troy, either PM me your mobile or post it here so I can call tomorrow and organise to get the strap?

Update - car is 100% back together shocks sweet... pity can't get out my driveway to test them out lol

PS DON'T FORGET DAYLIGHT SAVINGS STARTS SUNDAY, SO WE HAVE TO GET UP AN HOUR EARLIER  :drooling:

Are you sure? Daylight savings begins on the last Sunday in October... which this year is October 31st.

Daylight Saving starts the last weekend in October every year [except syd2kolympics] which is NEXT WEEKEND, NOT this one ;)

As GTTR34 said Sunday 31st October, 2am becomes 3am...should see you guys down the sand tomorrow.

I already knew but checked anyhow...

Where'd you end up getting the shocks done Marcus? QLD? That was a pretty quick turnaround if they were shipped interstate!

Done in QLD... cost me a arm, leg, and kidney to get them there and back in time, but VERY happy with their service and turnaround (not to mention their work)... go www.shockreco.com.au :(

Oh and sorry about the mis-info RE daylight savings :Oops:

Got some RE55s today ;)

Was nice to see so many ppl out on Sunday! I heard a couple of ppl on the day saying that it wasn't a masarati day it was a SAU track day, I had to have a little giggle. Seems like a pretty well run day, to bad the marshalls were a little tight on sitting in the grass area unlike the NDSOC day the weekend before :)

Yeah top day guys.....unfortunately like everyone else I got soooo burnt. Must remember the damn sunscreen next time! For my 1st time actually running at sandown with stock brakes, suspension and street rubber my times around the 1:40 mark, I reckon, were pretty good :-)

Me wants upgraded rotors and better pads before next track day!

    • Seat of the pants assessment of the new intake: The car is way less "doughy" when hitting the loud pedal, especially off idle when stopped or in traffic, I did use a cheapo lazer thermal thingo to measure the temp around where the pod filter got its air, it was between 55 - 60°C, in saying this the car was shut off and not moving, so the OEM intake pipe was not supplying any fresh air to where the pod was when the car was at least moving A weird bonus was induction noise on the throttle in the cabin increased a bit,  I was worried that I was actually going to lose some of that induction noise I love so much, outside though, when I got the daughter to do a WOT drive by pass for me, the induction noise has increased alot when on the throttle, not quite ITB doort, but well up there I'm extremely happy with the results and have been exploring the country roads in the region  As for house mods: 1.New front fence is up and is awesome, it really upgraded how the joint looks from the street, and the added security is nice 2. Electricians have replace some interior lights, and with more lighting in the garage, a few new motion detecting lights out the front above the garage, front room, and at the front door, which I have already found heaps helpful coming and going, also now has fancy pants CCTV all round the house The only hold point for power though is the solar and batteries due to supply issues, although this will happen over the next few weeks 3. I have done a heap of landscaping out the front and I'm almost ready to do a new small retaining wall with some nice blocks to replace the brick and cemented in rocks around the raised garden beds cemented in river stone "was the fashion at the time" the house was built. I currently have a pallet of retaining wall blocks and 2 bulka bags of 20mm blue metal to replace the wood chip that is in the raised garden beds around the house 4. I now have 3 big raised garden beds for out the back to grow some vegetables, about 70cm high, 200cm long and 100cm wide 5. My 2 compost bins are already pretty full with brown, green and kitchen waste from the landscaping I'vedone so far, but they will probably take a few months to break down, so anything else that gets chopped, trimmed, and kitchen waste will just start filling the base of the raised garden beds to about 30cm before I start throwing 40cm of good compost, and stuff, for the vegetables to grow in, I'll need a few ton of compost and soil, but the local supplier can sent me bulka bags of the stuff Basically the logs, wood chips and a few strategically placed rocks for drainage, will give the beds some good organic materials down low to break down over time, and they will hold moisture during the warmer months to save the water in my big arse water tank if we don't get alot of rain So, all in all, the car and house mods are going well, and I'm really enjoying being retired, I sleep in too 0700 and slowly plod around inside until I feel like actually doing anything, and only work in the yard for as long as want, which has actually been alot over the last few weeks,  although when you look at it, it seems that not a huge amount of work has been done,  until I look at the before I started the work pics Happy days and good times indeed 
    • hahaha yeah. Plan is to get side skirts and probably just rear pods. But going to do them one-by-one. I've got a set that I really like from RHDJapen, but that one isn't shipped to AU. So need to find someone who can get it for me
    • Here's an idea, answer the questions I asked you as they are trying to work out WHY the LSD will be binding up in a straight line.
    • You haven't driven many modern cars then have you? Most of them have sfa steering feel with their stupid electric bullshit steering systems.
