silver r34 with autobarn fake GTR badge on it and what looked like bob jane 5 spokers, twice in MV area. badge wasnt even mounted on the right side under the lock ??? take it off tool and melt down those wheels ,,,they're hideous!!!

wine r33 with a kit, no wing, maybe jack 88 too far away to tell

spotted loads of muscle cars and other rare cars - not sure how to describe it - heaps of restored cars etc firstly down at the southbank? plaza carpark on sherriffs rd then later as I was driving home on south rd it looked like they'd all moved on to castle plaza car park (unless it was a different meet?). I decided to drive through the carpark to check them out - there were some real nice machines in there. Almost filled up the entire castle plaza carpark to give you an idea of how many there were.

When was this? I know a fair few of these blokes, and some of their cars are prone to overheating issues ... would've been an interesting day.

:ermm:

Spotted RBWARE this morning on south rd, I was the one who beeped at you Shane in the silver ford.... Also spotted maroon r33 in melrose park, a black r31 at grand auto wreckers, saw a few others aswell this morning .

Saturday night in whyalla spotted a purple r34 with the drivers side rear quarter panel not looking to good looked like someones had either hit him or he hit someone but by the way he was driving I'd say he hit something .........

sorry, forgot to mention - it was on saturday afternoon/night. Probably around 6-8pm. I passed southbank plaza on the way to the beach then passed them again at castle plaza on my way home a couple hours later.

Most of the cars were just parked there and only a few were coming and going. The speed humps at castle plaza proved a hazard for some.

I felt rather out of place in the M35 stagea but I was only there for a quick stickybeak. :D

spotted White R34 REGO "GTT", on south rd. junkfood corner

also a white r33 next to him going onto town

and a white r33 for sale on the corner at bridgestone,

and mine,,, damn 4 white skylines in one place how random..lol

spotted a gunmetal 32 and a greeny/blue 33 on beach rd around 3.30, also spotted a fully sick vy calais trying to chirp his wheels in the bp morphett vale servo while i was filling up :) (its amazing what commodore drivers do when they get embarrassed), then spotted chris's white 32 4door at autobarn lonsdale as usual :banana: also spotted a silver 34 4door on south rd at darlington, then an immaculate white stag rs4 manual at the carwash on south rd bedford park, had a chat with the new owner (literally just drove it off the ship), and then got a nod from a maroon s14 at the blacks rd/oakridge rd round about just before

That was 3 days ago (Sat night).....started at Southgate, 1/2 way at Castle Plaza and finished at Gepps Cross.

It was Grant Zipple's cruise.

I got an invite but was way too hot to be riding an air cooled bike, otherwise I would've joined all the other US Customs.......maybe next time.

Grant regularly gets 300 or more Customs on his cruises and NEVER gets hassled by cops.......the ONLY cruisers in SA that the cops respect.

Yeah there were so many cars there...and I did note the lack of police anywhere. I was impressed. No tools doing burnouts or anything like that - just a big bunch of car enthusiasts showing off their pride n joy.

    • 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.  
    • I think it's bound to happen, you finally get it all perfect, and bam, something will happen. I took a while to get a Commodore rear quarter repaired where a P Plater clipped it. Two days after getting it back, Sarah wiped it out on a concrete pillar in an underground car park... This is why I take forever to repair them, it stretches how long until it gets bent again... 😛
    • Nah, not really responsible for that little fiasco, but I'm still pissed at myself for writing off my 86, or when I reversed my VX into a pole just before selling it, but, meh, 5hit happens to stuff, all it takes is a slight distraction, and life is full of distractions, and "dooh" moments
