I suggest we have an SAU Big Day Out 2006.

1. Start early at the Goodwood Pub for bbq brekkie and some Bourbons

2. Head over to Wayville and consume many more Bourbons

3. Around 4pm (or when you fall down) have a small sleep behind the sound stage in the middle of the main oval

4. Wake up and continue partying hard into the night :P

This was my routine this year, who's going to come next year? We need to buy tickets VERY soon before they sell out!

Erin - the lineup is not as good as previous years, but more than enough to keep me happy.

Highlights for me will be: The White Stripes, Franz Ferdinand, The Living end, Shihad/Pacifier, End of Fashion, Gerling, Mylo, Kid Kenobi, Magic Dirt, Hilltop Hoods, Cog, Sonicanimation, MIA, Foreshore and DJ Brendan. More than enough there to keep me happy, and way more than I can see in one day anyhow! I have seen most of these bands already, but am always happy to see them again! (Anyone else going to the Foo Fighters or Jamiroquai in the coming weeks? I am going to both :) )

Ash fyi the website is http://www.bigdayout.com/cities/adelaide.php and the date is 3rd Feb.

Yes, I agree - Carl Cox was insane - but then so was I by that hour of the night - memory is a bit blurry :D

Ive got around 150hrs of Carl Cox music (over 120hrs on solely worldwide Live Sets)... so Im a Carl Cox fan for sure. Yah, it was great to see him play this year, problem then is every year from hereonin wont be able to compare.

Deluxe probably typed Off Tap the way it should be typed. As some of you know, Im over 2m tall, and was around 5m from the front of the stage(a) where he played, so had an awesome view, pity my eyes were playing tricks on me. :D

But for original threads purpose, Im not too sure I'll go this year, 2nd baby will be less than 2weeks old at that stage, so need to be home with family.....

BDO line-up isn't good enough for me and the missus to bother this year :) It's not that bad a line-up but just not up to the standard of previous years - BDO '05 Boiler Room with Carl Cox, Freestylers and Chemical Brothers was awesome!

Andrew, Kimmy and I are going to Jamiroquai (saw them last time too) and plan to see U2 as well.

They've changed the venue for Jay Kay and the lads mate - it's now at the Entertainment Centre (like last time).

cool Matt, my mate decided he couldn't afford BDO, U2 and Jamiroquai tickets, so he pulled the plug on me for Jamiroquai. I might come with you guys if that is ok?

Yeah of course mate! I'll ring you and organise the details.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • 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.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • 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
    • 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.
