a quick summary.... heh

ahhh yes, what an evening.... lol

on the way to the meeting point (from my house) lots of cops going the other way, cruising at the speed limit. ran over a cat! bastid was in the middle of the road going left so i go right... and what does it do? goes to the right also.... bam! collected it on my right front wheel. i think it was still alive tho coz it was still running (or crawling) in the same direction. !!!

i rocked up about 12midnight to the regular meeting place out in front of narkeh's work... i was right on time, Milk was early, nark had finished, and it promised to be a very good night for photos.

about 12:30 still no sign of funky... finally rocks up, so we set off for the first shoot area. positioned cars on the tram tracks... nice place, quiet and good views except for the street lights which were too bright. but we still got some good shots out of the area. damn ula hears a tram and yells out 'tram!' nark and funky look around looking for a tram coming our way but it wasn't. (damn ula!)

finished up and decided to go to the second meeting spot. milk gets a call and she has to go pick up someone from the airport... we give her directions to box hill...

second meeting spot at southbank area was very good but we have to be very quick to pull off those shots without attracting too much attention.

drove up a bit more and turned off batman ave. to some joint where they had the yacht clubs and stuff.... drove past some private area and got to an almost perfect spot (waterfront loc #2). decided that its a good place so i move my car into place. next is nark's. then funky's car wouldn't start because of some fancy alarm stuff... it's ok i guess... just press the unarm button and away we go... but NO!!! (damn funky!). spent about 30 mins trying to get alarm off but no go. funky calls up alarm ppl at 2am in the morning... they cant help him either... so nark and funky take off to grab funky's alarm manual from home... i sit my car and try to get some sleep.... about 20 mins later they come back... funky forgets his car keys!! (damn funky!). off they go again... i too try and get some sleep... bloody drunks walking by occasionally and tapping on my window... damn you drunks!

about 3am they finally come back with the manual but funky's car battery is dead so we gotta push start. after about 4 - 5 times still no go... drunk dude decides to help us out... (lol) after 2 pushes he declares 'this car is hard to start, it happened to me as well some time ago!', takes out his container of left over red wine and starts drinking from it... hahahaha. we decide to give up and start pushing funky's car into the public parking area which is about 500 - 600m away... (damn funky!). at about that time we thank the drunk dude for his help and sent him on his way... i don't know how he kept his balance let alone push a car!

and about 4am i head for home for a 8:30 wake up to go to work! (damn funky!).

so what happened after i left nark? funky?... fill me in!

oh yeah funkymonkey you are my b!tch.... hehe :D

email me the pics guys --> [email protected]

rofl... yer we decided to go try the cop shop and see if we could borrow some jumpers... they told funky to go to a servo which they gave directions to... sorta... we ended up going to the nearest BP where i topped up a littl due to all the driving around (damn funky!)

upon getting in the car i thought it would be ironic if it didnt start... which it didnt lol

damn starter... started after a few tried :D we sighed in releif and drove off to the next station as that BP didnt sell jumper leads.

got to the next one... grabbed some leads... headed back and the car started first go once we jumped it :rolleyes:

      I recently got their dbw 74mm throttle body and pedal kit. It is sensational quality especially the wiring harnesses. Unfortunately I can’t answer u about the fitment to stock inlet manifold as I’m going Rahjab Racing forward plenum. Only one thing to be careful of is understand u have to pay gst and import fees if your purchase is over $1,000 in one shipment.

      yeah i agree paint match stops it from standing out so much, oh that's actually really good to know i was wondering if it would help with air flow now actually having an outlet in the bonnet. Will have to focus on ducting into and out of the radiator now to make the most of it.

      I would paint match the whole thing to avoid unwanted attention  I had a similar bonnet, paint matched, on my old R33 GTST, but mine was a fibreglass jobbie made by Blitz in QLD, they work extremely well for radiator efficiency and under bonnet temps

      Does anyone run this kit with factory plenum? Does the adapter and bosch tb fit under factory strut brace? I wanted to get this setup before going forward facing manifold. Thanks

      small update time, after always wanting a "cool" looking bonnet for my car and always struggling to find one for the series 2 that i liked and wasn't an insane amount of money. Saw one i liked on RHDjapan from D-speed in Japan the price was very good for a carbon bonnet so good infact i was a little unsure how much i trusted it, decided to bite the bullet and with the help of jesse streeter in not long at all it was at my door. Once it was delivered i ran in from work and quickly unboxed it and to my surprise the quality was actually pretty good i quickly removed the old bonnet and placed on the new one to test it out and even the fitment wasnt too bad at all. Then decided to paint the little grille in the bonnet black to stop it sticking out so much.   I decided to not mess around with the hood latch and just install some aero catch hood pins, having never installed them before did some YouTube university classes and i was good to go. fair to say it is not a fun job at all from making brackets so the pins sit nicely and actually cutting through the bonnet but also being very scared of cutting the holes too big it took wayyyy longer than i would like to admit but finally got it there. Then it was time for a quick test drive to ensure the latches actually worked and thankfully the bonnet looked very stable. I still think paint matching the bonnet and leaving just the part that sticks up as carbon would help make it all look alot neater as im not sure how i feel about all that carbon on a very fridge white car but will leave it as is and see how i feel with time.
