It was not a bad night really, the highlight for me was the chick at Mt Barker running through the car park telling everyone that the cops where gonna block us all in, then watching people running for there cars so they could get away, it made me lol so hard. It was like a scene from a F&F movie :)

Yeah it wasnt too bad a night! We turned off to Loberthal to look at the lights, but they dont start until next week :) small fail!

I spotted a few of you guys/your cars out, cant quite remember who exactly, but some nice cars btw.

The police didn't bother me last nite, as I'm all booked into regancy already ;) that would have looked pretty funny tho!

Hope all had a good safe nite!

Tow truck? What happened?

Was driving back from Melbourne in the mates Nissan Leopard, madly trying to make it back in time for the cruise... and then the battery + alternator failed...

2 tow trucks later in 2 different states, we made it home at 12am lol

nissan manufacturing happened lol

Lol so true. First, the car went into that 'limp' mode and he had no boost, then it fixed itself... and then it all died about 100k's later. Epic failure!

Next failure was when ringing up the RAA:

RAA: What kind of car is it?

Me: A Nissan Leopard...

RAA: ...Isn't that some form of animal?

Me: Yeah, and it's a Jap import

RAA: Oh... okay... will the RAA mechanic know what he is fixing when he see's it?

Me: Yeah, hopefully...

RAA: I'm going to have to Google this Leopard car after I get off the phone!

Mechanic arrives...

Me: Yeah, it's a stuffed alternator.

Mechanic: Okay, pop the hood...

*pops the hood*

Mechanic: Oh... um... this is turbo?

Me: Yeah

Mechanic: Okay... eh... *points to a random area of the engine* is that the alternator?

Me: Nah it's down there... *points to the alternator*

Mechanic: Oh... right... um... eh... well... I can't fix it so... um... let's just tow it?

Me: Good thinking :)

Spotted a silver 34 GTR with the plates VSPEC.2. Looked nice apart from the rear lights.

Was driving back from Melbourne in the mates Nissan Leopard.

I saw one for the first time earlier in the week outside the mitsi factory. Maybe the same one? It was silver/ grey from memory? I had to google it when i got home to see what it was..

      Questions on potential new purchase

      By latino_R35 · Posted

      Hey all, not sure how active SAU is anymore but will ask away anyways. Just wanted to get some experience on the 2008 model GTR CBA model.  I've hit that age in my life (43) where I'm like fk it time to get my dream (midlife crisis) car. Looking at importing one in and seeing if these can be reliable if the main flaws are fixed up. Plan is to keep money aside to do the following straight off the bat to future proof it: * install a stage 1 rebuilt trans with all new bits and pieces.  * install a new Bellhousing from the later model GTRs. Or potentially an upgraded stronger version like MAD or ATR. Besides the above two things and typical maintenance items anything else you'd recommend doing.   Been speaking to a few people and the engine on these are very reliable apparently. But keen on the view of the community here. Hoping to find a nice grade 4.5 with low mileage in Grey. I'd go black but swirls too easy. Look forward to your responses and feedback. Cheers

      Do Alan and Keith work on Skylines now? I remember buying stuff from them when I owned my Ralliart Lancer a few moons ago. Definitely genuine guys and be excellent if they dealt with the skyline platform as well.

      Hey all, I'm Gaston from Sydney's West.  I was a member on here when I was a younger lad and owned a mint R33 GTS-T. Ended up selling it and getting married having kids (yadda yadda) we all know how the story goes. Now I'm back with the intention to get my midlife crisis (dream) car ... a R35 GTR.  You'll see me about asking questions and searching the forums. Good to be back and can't wait to get back an Import again.

      I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.
