Awesome photos Col :D

What a great night and was nice to see a sensible driving attitude while we were driving from DFO, through Milton and up to Mt Coot-tha. Certain actions re: people leaving Mt Coot-tha, especially with the police only a few hundred metres away up the hill, leave a lot to be desired :(

Thankyou to Mud for leading the group :)

Was great to meet some new skyline fans and to catch up with the old skyline fans :(

Even signed up our newest member...Welcome Tim to SAu Qld :D :D :D

Are you talking about me wanting you to go first and you wanting me to go first...

Cause i was always a believer that red cars go faster so i wanted you to go first so i didnt hold you up...

Plus the old saying ladies first comes to mind also...

hmm that picture of only the three cars up mt cootha, whats the go with the taillight almost at the top centre of the photo.... kinda wondering how they got there

Love that last shot... The ultra blue light from the parker on my car has like caused that light spread effect...

Looks sweet...

What brand parkers are on you car? They look cool.

They are a special white LED parker i got from autobarn, cost about 20 bucks...

Arhhh im glad someone noticed... Its caused by a smug on the very front cokin filter on my wide angle lens... Just I must have touched the lens after the other shots... Hense the blemish only being in the last 2 photos of the night...

I wish i had my L series lens with me ($1500), but its in getting repaired... Due to someone dropping it in fiji.

yeah i buy thouse white parkers, from autobarn, cept i find they dont last too long :D mud, i didnt mean that photo, i guessed they were a taillights, but on the first one posted, look right up top theres two skyline lights, which is weird sine nothing else in the pictures has blurred at all...

    • Some of them keep working fine. 9 out of 10 of them end up causing an absolute misery bleeding the system and get thrown on the workshop floor in a tantrum and never thought about again because they were never really needed and just added crap to the car that we could have done without. Same-same with HICAS, A-LSD, and various other stupidities that over eager 10x engineers thought we had to have.
    • Not required but appreciated. Super Coppermix Twin even the non-competition model feels like the pedal is noticeably heavier than stock which was pretty well judged IMO. I'll be swapping in the Nismo operating cylinder soon to see how that feels.  Personally I haven't felt anything that justifies replacing the damping loop, at least compared to more modern stuff where the clutch delay valve is actually quite noticeable.
    • He made that comment in my thread - In my case the vents ARE to lower engine heat, when the car is not moving, which is the only scenario I have heat problems with the aircon on, sitting in traffic, on 40C+ days. I can't imagine a scenario that this NC needs any at this point in time. I do not know if it will actually make my cooling when the car is MOVING worse, and I sincerely hope that won't be the case. If it does, well, um, f**k.
    • Nice, thanks. Thats why I was asking, there'd been a fair bit of discussion in the E90 world about vents and where it makes sense to put one (ie, over the filters is not great as that is inline or slightly behind the struts and in higher pressure area). I struggle with air flow and pressures. It sill weirds me out that a radiator in the boot can work. 
    • Neither really Vents, when located in the right place, will lower the engine bay "pressure", as air has a path to escape, thus lowering the engine bay pressure, thus.....improving the efficiency on the coolant stack (read: IC, condenser, radiator) This is why the Blits vented bonnet on my 33 worked so well, the vent was in the front 1/3 of the bonnet, which put it right after the radiator  If the vents are to far back toward the windscreen, which is a high pressure zone, it can actually force air into the engine bay, causing higher pressure and effectively loosing efficiency on the cooling stack, like the fab of raising the rear of the bonnet, which does allow heat to escape, but only when the car isn't moving  There's heaps of cool "fluid dynamics" info out there, but, I'll attach a video of a 'Merican joint that focuses on "Miatas" as I found it when looking into vents for mine, they explain it way better than me
