Any offers? I have one and it holds about 1800 pictures in high resolution.

I didnt recieve anything either mate **Edit - My appologies, I did recieve it but it wasnt from the usual SAU mailing list but was from Pete's work addy so did get junked. Well done Snowy. Would also like to say thanks for the effort and determination that the committee put into trying to get 1st Oct happening with the speaker, certainly appreciated. B) Shame we can't get the numbers but the WRX club seem a good bunch of people so who better to do something with. Still looking forward to the 1st but gives me a little more time to get a suit sorted for the evening. B)

Thanks Snowy and Bec, I have pointed him in the direction of this thread.

Bec there is a guy called Darren who is interested in going but cant post in the members area at the moment, when do you need to know whether he can or cant come by?

Have not heard that about the drivetrain but could well be true. I can certainly get you contact details for dealerships over there and even the one that was local to me. Also apparently very bad for rusting as well although I dont know if that is as bad when not on UK roads. I actually got a uni placement with them for 9 months at head office in Coventry but declined it to come over here. B) They engines also dont reach prime until what would be quite high KM's for any other cars. Figures that I remember were around the 150K mile mark so not sure what that is in KM's. Tyres were also stupidly expensive at 250quid each. They also dont pack the punch of the XKR! :lol:

lol, its ok mate, no worries. Would be good if when we click quote, it quotes the entire reply and not just the previous users reply.

I was going to raise that point about your tipping success James of late

you quoted the wrong person originally mate, you meant him and not me B)

I might have a torx tool at home mate from the cossie. Will check tonight. If it isnt here it is in the UK.

<_< ffau? John? :lol:

My question to him was misread by him and what he meant was the dealer who has bought it has it advertised for sale already at $115.5K. He has sent me through the pics from the dealers site which are similar to the ones on the j-spec site.

I am double checking with my source but this was his reply to me when I asked him about it: Its in this country now and for sale for £48500GBP ($115.5k AUD) at a dealer about 100 miles from me. I very seriously considered selling my 34 to buy this one as it has an absulute fortune spent on it. Tim Webster has just sold the Jun Super Lemon 33 to Mick Begley so he will probably buy this one. Tim has 6 various GTRs inc Top Secret Drag R 33 and tried to buy the TS 34 Fusion car but another guy bear him to it.

Just spoken to an authority on skylines in the UK and apparently it has already arrived there and is for sale for the equivilant of $115K. Not much considering what seems to have been spent on it.

I worked for Jag in 1999 as a valeter and can confirm the transmission point. Worked in the UK for a local dealer there and used to cycle with the mechanics so often ended up chatting about the cars. Cars were having the transmission replaced as soon as 8000 miles which is horendous considering the purchase price. If you need any more info send me a PM, I will see what I can recall.

They finally did it then. I called up 3 years ago and offered to do it for them so people didnt have to sit in a queue on the phone. They said it was in the pipeline. That was July 2002. Great idea though.

Never heard of being done this way. The normal way is to unplug the fuel line from the bottom of the tank. Screwdriver could potentially create a spark. This was happening in the UK when the fuel price was above 1pound a litre in September 2000 with the blockades at the refinaries.

Hi all I have a 1GB memory card for sale which is Compact Flash (CF). The item is brand new and is what my business sells. However this was bought in error for a customer and they have opened the box so I can no longer sell it as new. It is brand new and I can guarantee that as I was the one who bought it for my brother! It is in the original packaging, just opened The item is in Melbourne. I will say $110 for it plus postage unless someone wants to make a better offer. PM me if interested or reply here. Thanks

Sounds good mate. That might be the place Snowy showed my up there. Some killer hills. Chris the beach always has hot women though too! B) So are you in for a team entry?

What about sending an email out to all members directing them straight to this thread incase people are not coming on here much with the site being down and bugs etc. There are less votes than members at a meeting which doesnt make much sense.

Can I be added please Bec!

James and others - a ride tomorrow? GTRGeoff - I have a training schedule from their website which I have adjusted roughly in accordance with what I know and have made a reasonable base to build from. From the MTB days, I usually drink every 5 - 7 mins minimum but 15 mins I would imagine is an OK minimum for road, due to the more consistent effort required. If anyone wants a copy of the site one as a guide, let me know as it is about building endurance as Geoff is saying (hell Geoff and I could be the same person!) Chris, would be great to have you on board. Thought it was the 16th James? What are we doing about entries as I am sure it is oversubsribed and we dont want to miss the boat, literally!

Exactly what I was saying to James on our ride when talking about pedal stroke/clipless pedal and shoe position and saddle position. The plumb line is the key. Good words Geoff. Definately know what you mean about tri-bars and lack of ability at times.

So it is the 16th and not the 23rd? Sorted tis the 16th

Well done mate. Spectacular isnt a word I would use to describe the weather here :lol:

You must have spent sometime composing this thread mate! Personally I think it is a good idea as all I hear about is Mines_Datsun and bus stop and this puts it all together. Interesting read and funny.
