So you think you got it bad.... the missus and 2yr old got all ready nice and early to go to her first pageant. Nice and early for us is 7.30ish. By the time we found a car park it was like 8am. Walked 20so mins to find a spot that was less then 5 deep. The pageant started at 9.30am mind you. Anyway, found a spot, staked our claim, waited and waited in the sun. Little one sitting on my shoulders the whole time (sore...!) and lo and behold, the first float comes by... with clowns... the little one HATES clowns... with a passion. The End. She would not have a bar of it and stayed in her push chair covering her eyes for the next hour whilst we relayed to her what float was coming by. She did see santa at the end though. And to top it all off, when we got home, we turn on the tv and she loved watching it on the tv! arggghhhh......

Yeh, K800i. zoom was shite. i had to pretty much stalk them to get close.

"Worlds Biggest Shade" at the Chicane stand, 2500 people. If it goes well, they do the other stands too. Just in case you were wondering, which i'm sure most of you would be, the necklaces the grid girls are wearing is based on a new series of Clipsal light switches.

Highlight of the 2008 clipsal i think will be the free exotic car show (for tix holders) with the Ford GT, Pagani Zonda, Carrera GT, Ferrari 599, Audi R8... and wait for it... the Veyron. Concerts include Sneaky Sound System, Powderfinger, Shannons Mole and Santana. Grid girls. Oh yeah... and then there's the V8's. Enjoy!

Anyways.... Car seems to be running the same, I mean, it's not like it's a highly tuned piece of machinery or anything, but will have to wait till weekend and give it a good slap before anything.

Due to price of this fuel i think i'd be better off with BP too... i've got the bp mastercard as well so it's worth it.

I know, i reckon the website is right though. In which case the price wasn't very cheap at all. Not expecting any wonders, Boost 98 didn't do much economy wise.

Considering it was about the same price as BP Ultimate i don't see the value. But I thought i'd try it out anyway. The website says E10 but at the pump it had a sticker that said 100% petrol

Yeah i'm at Payneham and the closest United is on Prospect Rd which is about 10-15mins away. Imagine my frustation when i found out they were completely sold out of Boost 98 when i got there! Premium Max wasn't cheap though, $1.33 p/L on a Mon evening, never seen Boost 98 go more then $1.30.

Any of you tried Liberty's Premium Max fuel? I filled up at the Liberty Station on O.G. road and the guy there told me it was 100% 98 ron. Couldn't find United (Boost 98) anywhere so i tried this.

Man that looks hot! The S1 that you sold was red too right? Looks great with the R34 rims too... how much did you get it for if you don't mind me asking?

Love the chicken wire security.

Put your wipers in the freezer for an hour, pop them back on, time it with/without switch on to see how long before the defrost. :laughing-smiley-014:

Sounds like they're testing the waters to see if the DSG is widely accepted before making any decisions. Unless they will release a faster LIGHTER version with 6sp manual seeing manual is lighter then DSG (correct me if i'm wrong).

Hey dan, tyres - that is for 2 right?

Not wanting to fuel any fires here and i don't know anyone, but it must be said (i was following the thread post by post) it sounded like the convo the op had with the enginner was pretty exclusive and quite clear that a 6 speed manual GTR will not be released (ever) which is quite contrarary to 90% of what i've read. Not talking about the DSG coming to Australia or anything. I thought it was quite relevant.

Mine key/remote was pretty shagged when i got my s2. The car needed a decent alarm so when it was connected, i got the guy to hook up the remote lock/unlock to the new controller. Much easier and cheaper if you need an alarm anyways.

Spoke to a large Nissan dealer in Adelaide and they said they don't and couldn't get the paint. Which dealer did you get yours from? Might have to get 1 sent.

Works for my stag , got me all excited but alas... not true, friends S8 rx7 and chaser are both opposite.

Yeah? Would they have Sonic Silver, being import and all?

I was thinking... in the rim department, will they be same stud pattern as r33/34's i wonder...

Nah... my driveway would eat that bar! Looks sweet though.

Hey yeah thanks for that, was wondering myself what the "Z" was, thought it might be some sort of shade or something. Got some good tips from TimHeather too, will hunt for some paint this weekend.

Yeah ID plate says KR4 Z. Will try some paint places this weekend.

Hmm... that's not good... Is KR4 the paint i'm looking for then? There's a definite slight Pewterish tint to the silver isn't there.
