  1. Looks great Aaron. There's nothing like attending a meet and getting free "professional" photographs What's that little black thing attached to the front bumper and the fender on each side? If it's holding it all together, I might need one too :X
  2. Wow this looks fun! Maybe just a few questions: 1. I have a front-wheel drive car, no drifting, but can I still enter just to have a go? 2. Can I drive like a grandma? (A little jaded from going on the track since I got hit a few months ago at Winton by a complete f**king retard) 3. How many cars on the track at a time? 4. "Battery must be secure with a steel bracket and sealed from the cabin" Mine is secure, but I can't remember whether it's steel or plastic (since it is a Mitsubishi!). I can double check, but as it's secure, would I be fine? 5. How long does each group have per session on the track? 6. "Brake, clutch and power steering reservoirs must be covered by an absorbent material." < Any recommendations for absorbent material? 7. What is a "grip session"? I'll probably have more as I think about it. Cheers
  3. Apparently the JDMST meet was shit, everybody started to try and one up each other. Lots of people hit the limiter upon exit and some retard tried drifting and smashed his car. Also it was finished by like 4pm. Bunch of princesses in Melbourne; don't like cold, don't like rain Glad I had work and missed out on this one. Anybody here actually go?
  4. Spotted a nice red R33 on King Street today, that had a bodykit and a JDM Concept sticker in the window Also saw a beautiful red and black 180 in the morning, sounded awesome too
  5. Mordialloc? What are you doing in my home? I'd be up for a south-east pre-meet, depends what time I finish work though :S turbodragon, where are you located?
  6. Spotted a bright orange Skyline in Dandenong today, didn't catch what model it was
  7. Not sure if it's any relation to James?
  8. Was a great night with great food and awesome atmosphere. Was also good to meet some new people
  9. Spotted a whole bunch of SAU members at Garage Cafe last night, I might be mistaken, but it seemed like a meet of some sort? Spotted this beautiful R35 on King Street this morning: (photo stolen from the internet) Spotted a white R34 in Mordialloc, looked and sounded nice too

    Earthquake

COAST OF AUSTRALIA Date time 2012-06-19 10:53:28.0 UTC Location 38.27 S ; 146.21 E Depth 2 km Distances 121 km SE Melbourne (pop 3,730,206 ; local time 20:53:28.9 2012-06-19) 11 km S Moe-yallourn (pop 12,948 ; local time 20:53:28.9 2012-06-19) Google Maps Location ; https://maps.google.com/maps?q=38.27+S+146.21+E&hl=en&ll=-38.11295,145.821533&spn=1.182076,2.469177&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=38.008397,79.013672&t=h&z=9 (Very close to power stations, hope everything is okay there.)

  11. interested in the pan fried cheese bread Where is this pasta place? Looks tasty
  12. You got your turbo fixed James? I'll be there
  13. Hopefully I can make it. Ever since I saw Martin with one of those beanies, I got a bit jelly
  14. Great, I'll take that as extra motivation for the run! As soon as I get my car back I'm keen to go there, rain, hail, sleet or shine, ready to go any time.
  15. I'm a fat guy trying to get back into fitness, please be gentle haha
  16. I love the Lyrebird track, part of its charm is the gravel at the beginning then the smoothness of most of the rest of the track which often results in muddy tracks when it rains, it just adds to the fun when you slip and fall on your ass! Love going down the steep parts of it too, hope they keep that the way it is now. Anyone know if they'll be adding steps to the entirety of the track or just parts of it? :S But on the positive side, having an alternative 1000 steps will be great. The 1000 steps usually get way too crowded to have a great run on a nice day, so this will definitely ease the pressure If anybody is still going up there, I'm keen to jump in and go for a run
  17. White R34 on King Street this afternoon
  18. I don't ever drive to the city, but I take the train every day as I work there. The traffic is also seasonal, during sunny days the traffic will generally flow at a pretty decent pace. But at the slightest sign of rain and even more especially so, during rain showers, the traffic will come to a standstill and all of a sudden EVERYBODY suddenly forgets how to drive and they all forget about the existence of road rules. People are strange. I highly recommend the public transport system over driving through and around the city, it might have its multitude of faults, but at least it's cheap(ish) and always available for you. Although on that note, f**k Metro!
  19. Yup, not many showed up, but a fun time was had by all. Parking was a nightmare (at least for me haha). Movie was great, but I can't seem to stop thinking about the plot holes haha Thanks for organising the event Adam! Look forward to the next one, hopefully at the drive-ins
  20. Spotted a white R34 parked outside The Men's Gallery this afternoon.
  21. Was a great night, good to catch up with people and meet lots of new faces. Thanks for organising it!
  22. What time do you guys usually wrap up? Won't be finishing work till at least 6-6:30ish and it'll take me two hours to get there from work!
  23. Spotted G4ORC3 (yellow R34 with black bonnet) on Princes Highway coming from King's Way. Spotted a black skyline with dark red race strips in Parkmore shopping centre.
  24. White R32 with a black bonnet (not CF) on Princes Highway in Dandenong
  25. Spotted a black skyline on Middleborough Road/Clayton Road, don't remember what model, but it had a blue LED strip along the front under the licence plate. Looked cool haha Then not after that I spotted a sexy purple 180sx
