Thats it, a 6 pack No twin turbo kit, for the money I can but another bike... Sorta, I have not sold my soul just leased it for work... With the amount of KM's I do per year the skyline would not have made it... I needed something that can carry 5 adults, have a huge boot and tow a trailer on the weekends... So the VE V8 fit the bill just right... Yep, no doubt... Ive paid up already!!!

6 litre all the way baby!!! 6 speed manual!!! 6 cup holders!!!

Yeah I saw 92.9 (discounted price) this morning... So thats 104.9 ish for 98 octane... Lucky I have an NA donk these days, 91 eth mix all the way

Im afraid its bad news Dave, memory card failure... I had 11 shots missing EXIF data and 10 of them were recoverable to almost perfect however yours was farked... That was the best I could do after recovering the shot with photoshop, its shithouse i know... Heat and CF cards dont like each other...

Sweet Dave, Ive organised a CPS photographer for the day also... (He will be filling my spare seat)

The standard price of unleaded in Toowoomba today (before any discount offers) was only 99.9 anyway and I was able to drive straight in and out with no chaos. Every petrol station in Toowoomba even Dalby today had fuel at 99.9 or 100.9 (standard price) so no one really scrambled for fuel... Its great to see it at these prices again...

you should be in the youtube clip as you all entered the paddock... i didnt post every photo as there would then be 101 pictures of much the same thing, hence i did the video... if you let us know your rego tho i can dig up a higher res photo im sure...

PAID Ammount: $48 Description: colgtsx drags Confirmation number: J9295935752 PS> Does the $48 cover enrty for one passanger also like a normal tnt???

Firstly let me sa when it comes to speed camera discussions my statements are only advice. Based on knowledge learnt when working in conjunction with the QLD police on the fit out and calibration of these vans/4wd's. My current job now has very little to do with these projects anymore and as such things might have changed a bit in the last 2 years... No, no... So with a landcruiser you (the speeding car/bike) needed to go past the car speeding... As the device that detects speeds is in the front window of the landcruiser, so you need to be speeding past the car to get done... Then it takes a photo of the rear of your car/bike... Sometime they have been known to park the wrong way to take front photos, but it rare and illegal on their behalf... However with the Vito's it is tracking your speed 300 to 400 metres behind the van... So its already got you speeding before you even approach the van for the photo evidence... In many cases you wont even know its a speed camera until the last minute and by then your already gone and its all too late to brake... Down side to the Vito's is they cannot book a motorbike, as there is no front number plate... PS> Example 1 I've attached a quick drawing, it shows how you they position to take photos. (example1 is the standard positioning) The arrows show the direction the vechicle is facing (ive used the bruce highway as my example out side caltex at bald hills as their always there) Example 2 shows how they can use a landcruiser to take front on photos (which is common practice on the bruce hwy)... In this arrangement also its believed they can cover traffic in one direction only at any given time, so the falsh mounted on the bull bar will indicate which side is being targeted... Example 3 like number 2 shows how a Vito can be set up in the same fashion as the landcruiser hidden by scrub or bush's and qith a quick adjustment it can be monitoring traffic going in the opposite direct without moving the van...

Yeah its because of the introduction of the new vito vans that qld police are pushing to make motorbikes have a front number plate... The new vito's cannot catch a motorbike speeding as they only take photos from the rear of the van, hence oncoming shots only... As where the landcruisers could get anything cause hey took photos from the front of the vechicle hence takin a photo of the rear of the offending car/bike, however you oftern saw the landcruisers as you were about to pass them and a generous application of the brakes was generally enough to avoid a ticket... The vito's over come these flaws that the landcruiser exposed...

He had the number plate cusack...

I have a mate, when i say mate i mean a guy i know who likes me... When ever someone say "where should we go" he always responds with "tittie bar"... He is one of those guys that gets in your head, so when I read your topic it was the first thing that came to mind...

as someone who drives around all day for work ive had the biggest troubles and traffic jams in the last 4 days its just not funny the amount of rubbish on the roads and water everywhere you look... creeks are over flowing everywhere, the rain was so intence on sunday it filled my empty 10,000 litre water tank in less than 60 minutes (through one down pipe)... we only got power back on monday, wasted so much food etc... i've never seen it this bad and ive lived on the northside my entire life... i went for a ride out to northpine dam this afternoon (5 minutres from home) and the in flows are raging torrents, the dam is starting to fill nicely. They said she is at 43% on the new tonight, and it has not been full since like 2001/2002 so its a long time coming...

For $300000 you could jack up the windscreen wiper and replace the car...

time for work

OK here is the video... http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=mGjdu7Ut7ao Enjoy, now I have to work...

Round 3 EDIT: Its now 12:30am and im stuffed, Ive finished cutting the video and its uploading to youtube now... Will post the link in the morning if I wake up on time (which i doubt after a 4th late night in a row)...

Round 2 I have to say I really liked this GTR...

godzilla ftw

Round 1 of images...

Yeah I noticed the other thread in the main section for pics, so ill post them in there... I wont do all of them as there is hundreds, just a summary of pics... About 50 should do... The rest will be resized and put into a quick youtube clip... Yeah that was me, Ill have pic's in the main "post your SCC pics and videos here" thread in a few hours... Its taken 5 hours to process the images thus far and photobucket is quick slow to upload to as it resizes the images from 23mb to 1mb and theres like 50 photos to do... As for all the cars coming into the paddock, ill resize them and put them into the youtube clip... As there was over 100 cars... Also there are a few images and a quick write up going to HPI, I will let you know what issue to look out for...

edit: thread is ok, re-opened...

ITs actually $162k in Queensland by the time you drive it away with LCT, GST, DDF, REGO, TPI etc....
