I just had a read of that thread and i hate to be a party pooper, but are we sure there will be enough room at the museum carpark? the posts in that thread keep saying that there wasn't enough space at the meetup point. Just checking, is all - I'm really looking forward to this and you've done a great job camma.

spotted a burgandy r32 in manuka about 7pm saturday. he was coming the other way slowly so we passed within about a metre of each other. i gave a smile and a wave and he looked at me like i'd just asked his girlfriend out.

i'm down the road, may be free if i can finish my thesis soon enough. i know the rego inspection is a harrowing thing - my r33 was clean as a whistle but they still said it was too dirty near the engine number. they also didn't like my rims, said the car was too low and the spare tyre hadn't been marked "80kph only". i failed first time too! they were pretty critical of my compliance workshop - they said, "your car should be able to pass first time straight from compliance. once the car's been through compliance you shouldn't have to do anything more to it. that's what compliance is". they advised me to call for a refund because clearly the workshop hadn't done their job. that said, they were really helpful the next time through. turns out the area around my engine number is heavily scoured but about six of them gathered 'round with torches having a good look...."ah, the next letter could be a Q? or maybe an O? or a zero?". edit: meant to add, a good attitude will do wonders.

hey congrats on the job mate

spotted our yellow r34 friend near Adelaide Avenue last night. Waved but not sure if they saw me.

yer, keep it up camma, this is a good thing.

assuming you are insured, use your insurance company to get what you want. if they call, just tell them you're going through your insurer. some years ago a woman ran into me while i was stationary (i.e. her fault). she was driving a government car on a weekend, dressed in horse-riding gear. clearly not for gov't use. about a week later, i received a letter from a melbourne insurance company listing damage all over her car (even though prang was front left quarter only) and asking me to admit being at fault. i threw the letter in the bin and didn't reply. i took the car to a registered repair shop and they sent the bill to my insurance co (nrma back then). don't deal with them any more, use your insurance company. if you reply to any of their letters or phone calls, they might be able to use this as your admission of fault. if they call, be polite, but don't talk with them: "my insurer is dealing with this matter. goodbye".

got a big wave from someone in a white Laser yesterday near Curtin shops. not sure if it's anyone from here. waved back with zest. that's right, zest.

I agree

I suppose you can't post pics of the guy at all?

yer i reckon r31's idea is the goods. that carpark is always empty and has heaps of room. in my opinion the museum carpark was designed by someone who knew they'd never have to park there: like lots of new car parks (woden kfc, for example), more keen on fitting cars in than making spaces reasonable. did you want to open your doors? no can do.

silver r33 just after scrivener dam this morning. gave a wave but because i was in the pulsar i might have just looked like a skyline fanboy. which, of course, i am.

yep i'll be there!

lol SWOIT

He's been mentioned before on here - lives near me, seen him many times cutting off traffic, narrowly missing pedestrians, etc. saw him about a week ago in fact doing about 90 in a 60 zone. w@anker.

spotted a grey r33 just past scrivener dam (near the GG's residence) - gave a wave but got no joy in return (if you're on here i was in the silver r33 who waved but got no joy in return).

spotted a burgandy r33 last night outside hog's breath woden with 'n1 tuning garage' on the back and a black spider on the petrol tank door. dunno if it was someone from 'round here.

sorry to hear this, mate. i hope you find it in one piece, and soon.

so what time-ish are things in braddon on tonight?

Aurora - much better Integra logo I think.

gtrrrr, your ride is HORN.

spotted a grey r32 w sunroof yesterday outside the warehouse/jbhifi in woden. looked v nice, wish mine would hurry up and get here.

Went to Tempe Tyres on Monday for possibly some new rims and tyres for my R33. They were having a sale, but I still wasn't sure what to get. The guy was really nice, took me through all the rims they had, even though they were chockers with other customers. Ended up buying some 18" rims for a great price, fitted in no time. I can really recommend them.

Yes More Pix Please.

might be better to set up a .torrent of the files if salival's bandwidth is a problem... http://bittorrent.com/
