5 votes all. It's a close one.

I reckon people who vote, but then don't come to the dinner shouldn't be allowed to vote for 2 months...

:werd:

How come we always have like 15 voters and 5 people at dinner? :(

We'll make these polls open from next month onwards, so we can keep track of who votes and then pulls a no-show :kick:

BAN!

Lane Cove is so so much better than R&R!! Great prices, large servings, plenty of parking, great service and most importantly the meat is EXCELLENT!

I just find that R&R is a little on the pricey side for the service and quality you get!

You won't be disappointed defecting to the Lane Cove River Steakhouse contingent! :(

Lane Cove Steakhouse's steaks are............ meh. Nothing special. They're just like the big-ass $5 steaks you get in any pub. Size isn't everything. They aren't good cuts of meat, and the two times I've been there, they've been cooked tough and chewy.

R&R may be expensive, and the service appalling, but the steaks are excellent quality, perfectly cooked, juicy and tender.

WERD UP MY N1GGA.

R+R's steak is tha shizzle, but comes at a price.

Lane cove is not bad. the time we went there for SAU dinner it was really quite good. I went back not long after that and it (the steak) was below par. not the greatest cut, and not expertly cooked.

if we are going to go steak I say we go the whole hog and do R+R. on the other hand, LCR SH is ok by me too, just not my first pref.

EDIT: f**k I'm getting hungry for a steak right now...

mmmm Steak :wassup:

I have been to R+R about 10x in Manly and 5x in Gordon in the past 3 years.

I agree with Andrew, they are a top steak house....but they are expensive, not BYO, service is average (in Manly) and the parking sux at both locations.

I have only been to LCR SH twice and they were what I would expect for the price. They are not unreal, but the food and service is good.

If I had my choice we would be always going to Thai Orchid....cheap and tasty with great parking:wassup:

Come on Mal!!!

You can't keep going to the same restaurants, no matter how good they are. Lets branch out and try some new things. We should limit Thai Orchid to 3 visits a year. That's once every 4 months. I would suggest only twice a year, but I'd probably be gunned down by all the TO-fanatics in the crowd :rofl:

Remember that we only get 12 monthly dinners a year, so lets diversify our restaurant selection :) There's no need to keep going to the same ones surely! Malabar was an excellent recommendation, lets keep the variety coming!

And in aid of this new-found adventurousness, does anyone know of any other GOOD steakhouses other than LCRSH and R&R?

oh fcuk yes...............

I was looking for that pic you had of it to post up again, but can't find it? I'd swear you posted it up in the TAS pics thread?

yeah I think 3 times to TO would be enough.

I reckon after this months steak expedition we do Jap next. Teppanyaki :rofl: or, would could try the new branch of Makoto. For those that don't know Makoto is like an upmarket version of sushi train. it's on liverpool st in the city but they've now opened in chatswoo. I am partial to teppanyaki though...

    • Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
    • Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).
    • Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
    • Perhaps the answer is... more jacks!* *proper jacks must be used.  
    • I NEVER think about using a scissor jack unless there is absolutely no other alternative. f**king things are dangerous, annoying and stupid.
