I went on a P&O cruise about 2 months ago and was playing the pokies one night. Sat down and won $80 from a couple of dollars which is nothing to write home about although the machine next to me was turn off i leant up against it and it decided to start paying out :D Got almost $100 when the machine was off ;)

haha.

i'm a pokermachine technician. i sit at work when i get a maching running

max bet, and throw as much money in as i can find. take it out and put it all in again.

sometimes when i set machines on 96% return i have put throught $1500 and not even gone over what i put in. and ended up at 0..

i never play them when i go out anymore.

but definatley have had alot of luck on them. used to gamble say 50 a week. always used to come out infront somehow.

shit things tho. i dig hitting them with hammers.

but still, one day you win say 200 as you claimed.. for next month or so, if you still play them, you wil end up loosin more anyways..

You win one nite, loose the next couple of nites n goes on n on..

But if you only put in like 1-20 bucks max, then its ok.. but for those serious players, im worried!!.. hope you dont loose your car or house or anything..

Only time I ever played pokies was on my 18th birthday at Star City. Got a feature and won $25 off the free $5 (or whatever it was) that Star City gives you when you become a member.

Yeah i think its $10, i won $50 on the roulette table from the join up money :rofl:

Geezzz i dont know where to begin... i have so many pokie stories.

Ive won 80 off 10

ive won 250 off 20

i won 200 of 50

etc etc etc

I was at the greengate a couple of weeks ago and i was talking to some guys who were playing.

they were down at the pymple pub the week b4 and had $ 10 each. he put it in and won 150, and his mate won like 50 or so. They then went to another machice and put in the rest, one of them took out $2500 and the other guys pulled out $400

U win some you loose some, its just money, have fun !

    • Cheers. Skyline is back on the menu, can’t get rid of it. It’s like a child you don’t want, or herpes 
    • I got back to Japan in January and was keen to get back on track as quickly as possible. Europe is god-awful for track accessibility (by comparison), so I picked up a first-gen GT86 in December just to have something I could jump into right away. The Skyline came over in a container this time and landed in early January. It was a bit battered after Europe, though—I refused to do anything beyond essential upkeep while it was over there. The clutch master cylinder gave out, and so did the power steering. I didn’t even bother changing the oil; it was the same stuff that went in just before I left Japan the first time. Naughty. Power steering parts would’ve cost double with shipping and taxes, so knowing I’d be heading back to Japan, I just postponed it and powered through the arm workout. It took a solid three months to get the car back on the road. Registration was a nightmare this time around. There were a bunch of BS fees to navigate, and sourcing parts was a headache. I needed stock seats for shaken, mistakenly blew 34k JPY on some ENR34 seats—which, of course, didn’t fit—then ended up having the car’s technical sheet amended to register it as a two-seater with the Brides. Then there’s the GT86. Amazing car. Does everything I want it to do. Parts are cheap, easy to find, and I don’t care what anyone says—it’s super rewarding to drive. I’ve done a few basic mods: diff ratio, coilovers, discs, pads, seat, etc. It already had a new exhaust manifold and the 180kph limiter removed, so I assume it’s running some kind of map. I’ve just been thrashing it at the track non-stop—mostly Fuji Speedway now, since I need something with higher speed after all that autobahn time. The wheels on the R34 always pissed me off—too big, and it was a nightmare getting tires to fit properly under the arches. So I threw in the towel and bought something that fits better. Looks way cleaner too (at least to me)—less hotboy, less attention-seeking. Still an R34, though. Now for future plans. There are a few things still outstanding with the car. First up, the rear subframe needs an overhaul—that’s priority one. Next, I need to figure out an engine rebuild plan. No timeline yet, but I want to keep it economical—not cutting corners, just not throwing tens of thousands at a mechanic I can barely communicate with. And finally, paint. Plus a bit of tidying up here and there.  
    • Nope, needed to clearance under the bar a little with a heat gun, a 1/2" extension as the "clearancer", and big hammer, I was aware of this from the onset, they fit a 2.0 with this intake no problems, but, the 2.5 is around 15mm taller than a 2.0, so "clearancing" was required  It "just" touched when test fitting, now, I have about 10mm of clearance  You cannot see where it was done, and so far, there's no contact when giving it the beans Happy days
    • It's been a while since I've updated this thread. The last year (and some) has been very hectic. In the second-half of 2024 I took the R34 on a trip through Germany, Italy, France and Switzerland - it was f*cking great. I got a little annoyed with the attention the car was getting around Europe and really didn't drive it that much. I could barely work on the car since I was living in an inner-city apartment (with underground parking). During the trip, the car lost power steering in France - split hose - and I ended up driving around 4,000kms with no power steering.  There were a few Nurburgring trips here and there, but in total the R34 amassed just shy of 7,000kms on European roads. Long story short, I broke up with the reason I was transferred to Europe for and requested to be moved back to Japan. The E90, loved it. It was a sunk cost of around EUR 10,000 and I sold it to a friend for EUR 1,500 just to get rid of it quickly. Trust me, moving countries f*cking sucks and I could not be bothered to be as methodical as I was the first time around.
