  1. God dam it, I should commision you to do a photo shoot of my car. The first pic was great!!! a20089's car get top billing for once :-P
  2. Shell Helix Ultra here 10-40w Seems to do well in Canberra
  3. Driven the 34 gtt and 33 gts-t own a 33 GTR 34 did seem a much better package and more modern, everything felt more refined than the 33 GTS-T's I've driven. However the extra power, traction and cornering ability of the stock 33 GT-R moved me to it. You pay more for a GT-R but it is a jap "super" car, a gts-t is mearly a fun car in comparison. If you are seriously modding then things might be different.
  4. I'm a bit slack recently, but I hope we all thanked Emily for organising the attendance at the event.
  5. Welcome
  6. Dereck said he could probably round up another to fill out the group if needed.
  7. You obviously have not read the threads and your post is unwarranted. Yes they may not have handelled it the best, but to say they were trying to scam the "club" is totally untrue.
  8. [a tachment=87189:P1020738.jpg][attachme t=87194:P1020743.jpg]
  9. Yep 5500+ I've found to be best with a gentle release of the clutch, got to try with a Jim's clutch soon. Stainless steel tyres? They'd be a pain to keep clean and a solid ride :-)
  10. Rope or string is best strung between two cars. Witches hats if you have them. If we have our own section now it probably won't be so needed.
  11. Had clutch put in, all seems well done. Was a little late in finishing the work that day, but at least they were willing to talk to me while they finished the job.
  12. Baby oil in very small amounts. Works great on sinks and latex. Don't ask me how I know.
  13. After we get our money back, well getting the money back depends on Daniel at this stage. As for organising, it think it is time to let some of the younger people to experiance organising things. I will help with ideas/advice if people want them. THis go kart and paintball day sound a bit expensive but a great idea.
  14. I'm in Does anyone have a friend that can video the 1/2 day?
  15. Just got a jims clutch (6 puk) installed, it's so light but grabs very hard.
  16. I spoke directly to the organisors today. They informed me that it was best for 2 members/cars to turn up between 8 and 8.30 to stake out a large section so all the skylines will be situated together. Particularly not having a club, we will be thrown in with the "others" It would be nice to see a massive row in year order.
  17. Yes what a SAGA, this is better than a cheap American sitcom. As the Paintball place knew of the full situation, they contacted me regarding Daniel and informed me that Daniel has made a claim on the money and that he will be receiving all the money back this week. That means Emily can pass on the refunds at the wheels expo, if she is still coming. This is a good outcome and one that I made suggestion of directly to Emily in PM, before trying to resurrect this day. I have developed a good relationship with Paintball and they have offered me the same deal in any future day organised. They will also inform me when the money has been paid. I've removed the rest of my planned reply avoid a slanging match, I think most people can read what has happened, but suffice to say I have been unimpressed with Daniels last few messages. I hope for better. I and those others who have paid await your sensible reply regarding refunds Daniel.
  18. OK I've been doing a bit of running around and it looks like I've come up with a date that might suit most people, with plenty of time to arrange a day off if needed. It should also be a bit cooler so the paint balls will more likely burst on you rather than not bursting and leaving welts Sunday April 22nd 8.30-4pm The following is a list that was posted on who had paid acording to the original thread. I did not take the money so can not confirm if you paid extra for what ever reason. We do not need 16 people, the remaining places will be held until another day, possibly Emily and Daniel can organise a day for the NSW group with the remaining places. SL33KY (Emily & Daniel + 2) Deposits taken Bluprint Deposits taken Sinista32 Deposits taken CeJay Deposits taken Cef11e Deposits taken LTSJayce Deposits taken +1 need deposit (this is the last person we need) Contempt Deposits taken Veilside R33 Deposits taken a20089 Deposits taken James (sorry don't know your screen name) Deposits taken SKYLVIA Deposits taken Baconer Deposits taken Paid up 1. If you are on this list and wish to attend please post below 2. If you have a friend who wishes to attend please take their money and give it to me (PM me). I will organise refunds where possible. If I get a group of people from work to take all spare places, I will organise to refund Daniel/others. 3. This will be the only day organised from me, if you don't like it you can talk to Daniel who told you all the money was lost. If you suddenly pull out, the money WILL be lost. Transport will be on your own, please someone volunteer to pick me up. The location of the field is "Inglara Creek" Michelago NSW http://www.predator.com.au/home.html
  19. Yep a good night till 12.30am
  20. A quote from my GF "If we are coming out on the motorbike, then you can come out and stop being such a pussy" now thats being put in your place
  21. You Lie Dereck!! My GF did buy a gift voucher from you. I'm on a 5th gear course, so I'll see who else wants to come with me. Happy happy happy
  22. Yes Jim will be out tonight around 9.30pm. CEF11E has agreed to pick Jim up. Lets get a good turn out to show off Canberra Skylines I will be attending on a motorbike as my "jim's" clutch is still waiting installation.
  23. OK the Facts... and they are good for everyone. From The ministary of Paintball: The booking was cancelled within the 7 day period (thank you Daniel/Emily) We still have all the money, it is NOT lost We need to recedule within 7 months It has been paid for 16 people If we don't get the whole 16 people they can hold the rest until we use it. ie we can have 2 or more games yea:-) If everyone (who has paid) is in agreement. I would like to set a date in the future in consultation with you. If we get any new takers they can pay me and I can refund someone that can not attend. I will be setting a date at least a month in the future and a date that Jayce can attend because he's a cool guy. Apart from that all I'm getting is the game I paid for. I would appreciate everyone's phone numbers via PM so I can keep you informed as I know not everyone looks at the web site everyday. Anything can be done if you put your mind to it. Cheers, Jon Don't piss off a public servant, likely they know someone
  24. umm... no You have told the group it has been fully paid for, whether the group turns up or not. You changed the date and paid the money without consulting the group. You made a judgement call, it turned out to be wrong and I am certainly not going to have a go at you for sticking your neck out and trying. However now you are not going to run away like a little child that doesn't get their way. Be a man (or woman as the case be it) and follow this through to the best of your abilities. You commited our funds as an agent for a set event on a set date, you can not deliver. Now you are compounding the misjudgement by cancelling instead of offering the day for those who can attend. That is not having a go, that is the facts as I understand them. Now if I have to pick up the reigns and get a result even a partial result I will. I would however value your assistance. Several people know how hard these days are to organise, I know Jayce organised some good track days in the past, and the hassle he went through sometimes was amazing, but even if it didn't turn out perfect, everyone who could attend got the best out of the day they could. I know you have the ability to turn this day around, let me help you. (Please no childish name calling/blaming in this thread or I'll get shell to lock this thread as well)
