  1. I waited from 9-930 and saw Emily that was it.
  2. Or just hire a helmut on the day?? I think you put a deposit down on it and you get your money back when you hand it in.
  3. TME = Tommi Makkinen Edition You silly Nissan drivers.....oh wait. What colour Nik??
  4. I've always been under the impression that you can't get MINE'S cars here in Aus do to our compliance levels. There was a thread elsewhere in the forums about it, the only way to get one here is to import/buy a GTR and then send it back to Japan.
  5. Do you work in the NOC do you Justin?? Surely you could have a quick 'smoko' and come check out the cars. I'd just grab my Mum's work pass and use it for the night. I used to work at TransACT but not anymore.
  6. I think I was quoted around 400 for the lines and a braided clutch line hose. ADR approved as well, from Maltech.
  7. I've contemplated a set, but for the price I've been quoted I'm not really sure if they're worth it.
  8. I don't believe it!! Veilside made a frontbar that doesn't look gay!!
  9. That's enough outta you tubby Jokes
  10. Yes Frink will lap you at every available opportunity As for the rest of you.......shrink or something!! You're all tall buggers! EDIT: Oh yeah, and what Luke said about brake fluid is pretty important, back when I tracked my FTO I was having horrible braking problems because during the afternoon my fluid was incredibly hot. Once I got back to town my brakes were doing crap all and I had to go get the fluid flushed and changed. DOT4 is the stuff you want. DOT5 will eat your hoses (unless they're braided), Don't let all this scare you though, I still vivedly remember the first time shooting out of the starting lane onto the track, andrenaline pumping and NO ONCOMING TRAFFIC !!! R3sp3ct, if you find a place that alters your seat can you let me know, I've got a Sparco here waiting to go in my car but no one wants to touch it.
  11. See my post regarding parking in the official pizza thread.
  12. Guys, Dickson is generally busy that time on Friday night, however I may be able to sort something out using the TransACT buildling carpark (has a boom gate so normally you can't get in it) so we could all meet there and then walk over when everyone's arrived/it's our booking time. IE: I get there early and open up the boom gate for people to come in and then once it's close to booking time we all walk over (5 minute walk max).
  13. It's not a GTR.
  14. Not bad not bad. I made 207 on Jakes dyno.
  15. I've run around the track no problems. Just bring what Wakefield tell you too and make sure your car is in good nick. Also, as Luke said, don't keep the car going hard for too long or shite will break. Take rest breaks for the car. Brake pads are probably what I keep an eye out for the most. As for petrol, if you'll be running the whole day then maybe take some extra, but you can always just drive back to Goulbourn (5-10 minutes) and fill up at the BP/Shell there. I personally have driven to Wakefield, done an afternoon of laps and driven back on one tank. Just keep in mind that you drive to your limits, don't worry about faster people on the track as they will overtake you on the straights, just move to the side and ease off a bit to let them pass. I've seen one guy drive beyond his limits and he put his SS Ute into the wall (freak occurance but still....). It is immensly fun however, so go and have fun!! Leigh, I ran around the track at 14.7psi and had no problems, this however was during the colder months so keep in mind temps will be higher.
  16. Spotted Sauce the other day, can't miss that fro. I too spotted that red 34GT-T with GT wing at J-Racing today when I dropped in. Looks mint!! Sorry Mick I didn't see you but yeah I was cruising around Fyshwick this arvo.
  17. Splendid idea!
  18. Spotted Shell parked on a road in Fyshwick this afternoon. As well as Slither + Caitlin in his little Suzuki.
  19. I use Gas Tune for my regular servicing. I've never had a problem with them and they've always been helpful. NuggetGTR also uses them and I've seen a Stagea in there too.
  20. Don't forget it might not fit if you've got an aftermarkt intercooler due to the way some piping/brackets are fitted.
  21. I'm actually in a bit of a pickle at the moment in regards to rims; I want a new set of rims but I'm not keen on dropping down tyre width from 255 to 235s which most rims these days seem to take. Is there really that much difference when it comes to tyre width?? Obviously the more tread I have the better grip I get and fuel consumption isn't really a concern of mine but is 20mm going to really impact me?
  22. I've half given up washing mine =(
  23. Welcome aboard guys.
  24. Walking back to work with an ice cream in my hand.
  25. Spotted Shell in Tuggers today at bout 10 to 2.
