Yeah I went out there about 10:30am and unfortunately it was postponed due to wet weather (unable to put cars on rollers?)

Oh well, looked like a nice workshop and will keep an ear out for the next day :D

Cheers,

Tommo.

Apologies for all who showed up and and couldnt have there cars on the dyno. Understand that some of u guys had travelled from quite a distance.

Unfortunatelly I was there as well hoping it still be on and didnt have a chance to post on forum that it was cancelled, all we managed to do is put a sign up in front of workshop that it was postponed.

The owner have decided to have it again on the 6th November so hopefully u guys will be there and for those who couldnt make it last week here is your chance.

it's pretty poor form to cancel on the day with no way to tell anyone. there were a number of people i know of who went quite some distance to get there and i would be surprised if any of them will want to go back.

The trick is, if you are going to use SAU to advertise your event, have the courtesy to tell people if the event is cancelled so they dont drive from the Northern Beaches all the way there to find out its postponed.

Fully understand how people might feel. I travelled all the way from cronulla as well, sleeping only 4hrs and got there all excited hoping the event will eventually happen. I take full responsibility for not been able to communicate earlier that the event was cancelled and have taken all comments and advise seriously for future postings.

Once again I and many others where disapointed, personally seeing the good turn out, variety of cars and the friendly atmosphere.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      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.

      R32 gtr transmission strength, billet plate

      By cosline · Posted

      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

      Spotted on the street....

      By Rezz · Posted

      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.
