OK the 11thNov.

A Buddy I chat with on Classic Skylines is coming up to see me and pick up half a dozen wheels I've got for him. He is coming up in his PNV DR30 with

(Ithink) an L28t, which is the US turboed version of the 280Z motor, or similar

His name is GHOSTRIDER (aka Dennis) and many of you will have seen his

dedication to all things from Factory 5.

If we can settle on the 11th and a venue, I will chat Dennis to be there.

If we all fax SKA a $50 note he might get here too.LOL.

I dont mind whether its up the coast or down south, I'll be there.

Thanks for the offer Hugh, but seriously I dont need your money. I do have money in the bank that I could use for petrol to get down there and back, but it is all allocated as savings for bills and the like.

It's all about priorities, and sorry to say but feeding my family comes before going down to brisbane for a get together.

Thanks for the offer but, muchly appreciated :( I'll be there in spirit.

That said I just realised too that there are much more important things you could be putting that $50 to. Like I would be much happier to hear that with that $50 you took out your family for dinner somewhere or took your wife out for a nice dinner and movie, or a billion other things!

Anyway now that the violin music has started playing, back on topic Ska!! :(

We went down the coast today for breakfast. Sure there are alot of important things in life. I cancelled a 50 year reunion in Perth cause my little bloke has a FU elbow and looks like he needs surgery for it, on top of a

repeat of his ankle op.

At this stage it's the broadwater carpark Surfers paradice on the 11 Nov at about 2.30pm. I think most are happy with this. All i want to do is put a face to the names and check out some nice cars as well as taking some photoes. I was also wanting to through around an idea for a cruse early next year say Feb or Mar.

We at in or around Brisbane could head north for a couple of hours and SKA-Cyrs could head south for a couple of hours and we would meet in the middle some where. This would make the cost of the drive about the same for everyone. This is only my idea and it is open for debate.

Ummmmmmmmm I live 7 hours north of Brisbane :mad: so half way would be like Gin Gin :mellow: And there aint nothing at Gin Gin that is that exciting. Trust me, the BWCP in the early arvo is good, there is a great covered park and as the sun goes down the kids pirate ship playthingy gets the shade and there are some electric bbq's there to cook something on too. Also if you wait around till later in the night it fills up with hundreds of all kinds of makes and models of souped up cars :(

Hugh, Dennis is an SAU-NSW club member (or former member/exec), but as far as I know he isn't as active on the forums here as much as he used to be.

7 Hours Ska???

I live in Sydney and I'm comin up to see my friend so I might/probably be there but alas in my 1UZ Toyota.

Was once going to buy a Stagea, but how could I pass up 6 bolt mains and forged pistons standard. :D

Any of you guys going to this:

There was 6 or 7 stagea's at it last year, no I didnt make it last year, and wont this year either, <sighs>

Will be tring hard to get to this

Have to get the car finished, along with a new roof and brick work to the house by then.

There is just not enough time on the week-ends to buid 300sqm + of house by yourself on the week-ends and build cars at the same time

Unfortunitly that is why I will have to miss the Qld get together

    • It only looks tidy, as most of the stuff that was on the whole back wall, is now in the trailer to go to the tip, or has been shoved in my 2.2x2.4m "Spare parts room", and now I can't get to anything in there Ha ha ha I could definitely do with a bit more space, but I'd just end up with your problems I'm going to enclose the car port beside the garage, and move a lot of stuff into it I think. OR... It will be setup as a fabrication area, and the main garage will have parts storage in it. I'm not sure yet... Need some pictures of that big shed you've got with the bikes and Skyline in
    • No. I think it's gone. 😭 I think you can get body coloured ones on eBay so I think I'll get one of those... Or just hang a red ribbon from the hole and whack a TOW sticker next to it.
    • Can't say I've had a bad experience with one on my car, then again it only gets washed once or twice a year... The wheels on the other hand, get a good spray often due to my shitty dusty pads.
    • @MBS206 thats pretty neat and tidy to me!  I'll get a photo of mine when I'm out there next. It might require multiple photos to understand the scale of the atrocities though... In total I have 4 sheds of varying sizes and layouts. Main shed is 14x8, second shed is 3x8, third shed is 11x2.5, fourth shed is around 6x4.  All are pretty much full.   The main goal of my cleaning tsunami is to make the main shed predominantly car and motorbikes only. Second shed is my metal fab room (2 x bench grinders, drill press, bench belt sander, metal band saw, scrap metal storage and some of my garden tools.  3rd shed is more bigger garden stuff, storage for engine crane, jack stands, concrete grinder, concrete mixer, air compressor lives there, and it now has two 2mx2m pallet racking shelves with itemised boxes holding building stuff, electrical stuff, plumbing stuff, etc, etc.  The 4th shed is Ryobi electric ride on mower, mini boom sprayer, ancient Kubota tractor, more garden stuff!  I have got a lot of shit....  Then there's the pool house (8mx4m) and the pool pump shed (4mx4m).  I built all of the sheds over the 11 years we've been here.  The main shed was a Ranbuild kit, the rest are all custom made to fit the areas available. Building the main shed taught me a LOT as I had no idea about building anything prior to that!  I've still got one more in me. It will be my man cave which I poured the extra concrete for way back when I poured the concrete for the main shed. The idea is the Skyline will be a centre piece of the main cave once (if...) it's finished.  I told my now 14 year old son yesterday that I will 100% drive him to his year 10 formal in 2 years. Still a long way off but at least I now have a date to work towards! 🤣
