I was going to suggest Big John's, but making a booking there doesn't guarantee you a seat at 7pm. You'll be lucky to be seated by 7:30pm, but more likely 8-8:30pm.

We've made a booking once, turned up on time and STILL had to wait on the street for 2 hours. Bookings don't achieve anything there, and a firm booking is quite important for a school night for some of us :)

Great food, crappy service, but I like the place... I'm up for it, but be prepared to possibly wait even if you've booked!

Great Northern!!!!!! I can roll home from there!!!! A hop, skip and a jump to my front door. But Italian @ roseville is good and i can actually attend one as i now have changed roles @ work and now work 9-5 Mon-Fri.

But yeah Great Northern is awesome........heaps & heaps of space.....plenty of sexy bar chics, pool tables, great food, and best of all BBBEEEEEEERRR!!!!

I am up there quite a few nights a week

I vote for the Great Northern as I do not want to try to drive down south for bad parking, bad service and waiting for a table.

Also most of the regulars are northsiders (or inner west) so its best to keep it fairly local.

i am easy. QUOTE]

how easy!? :(

oh moaner. I am easy, but still have standards... ie. reastaraunt must serve some type of meat and either allow BYO or serve good beer. hey wait a minute, you were still talking about food... right?

I'm happy to be proven wrong but I'll say it again - the reason I think so many of the regulars are *Northerns* is because we don't go anywhere south of the bridge!

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
