Got the DVD yesterday; short but sweet show & tell of "satanic" put a very big smile on my face.

Thanks for the kind words, the time & the effort!

And thanks to Terry for sending me the PM; I got the DVD the same day and let's just say it's made my birthday this year that little bit more special ;)

I liked how Andrew quoted the phrase, "...on the strength of Skylines Australia Forum..." :laugh:

And now the 'PERFORMANCE IMPORTS' Mag Issue #113 'Best Of The Best' has made its appearance as of yesterday.

6 pages about the 10th Anniv. Celebration pp 74-79

5 pages displaying pics 'n praise on Bakes' black beauty and also a major gong winner at the 10th Anniv. pp 52-56

mxfly's (Eugene's) vision has come to fruition :(

It certainly has, Terry! Good article by Nick (Black Widow), great photos, and good turnout made the R34's "10th anniversary" article a good read.

Bakes' car is just gorgeous, full stop!

Hey guys

Just bought the new HPI magazine, theyve got this event covered really well. Worth the buy - also includes 100 of the best imports!

Enjoy!

Yuka-san, Shanil, didn't even know till to-day that "PERFORMANCE IMPORTS #113" with her Mt Wilson pic in it, is out in the stands.

She's off to the newsagent now to get it. She's still getting over her trip back from Japan.

And she hasn't had a chance to see MOTIVE DVD #3 yet either. Good on her, for coming to the event with her 1 month old baby!

That's dedication - even tho' she used to be employed by WORK WHEELS JAPAN at one stage and is interested in GT-Rs. :blush:

Yeah I saw her in the magazine! I would definitely need to think twice about taking out a four week old child to an event like that, so it does show her passion and love for the car!!!

I sure do hope this gets put back into the active view.

Everyone needs to go to Speedhunters as the article i wrote (along with Xmetals photos) have been featured!

Enjoy!

Thanks Bobby!

Thought i'd update with a more appropriate link:

Speedhunters

Nice one mate. Love the choice of photos too :P

but I'm beginning to think I should change my number plate; 1983 doesn't make me sound that young any more!

Thanks Nick - That article of yours is more than 'gloss goss'; with quite of a bit of thought put into it!

It's nice to re-cap...

    • They see me rollin' they hatin'....... Took me most of the day to make the necessary mods to the mounts to make them fit the car.  Fortunately I was able to just use the mounts that came with the rotisserie. The rear ones are really secure, the front I feel i might reinforce a bit more as it doesn't seem like enough attachment to the vehicle. I'm sure it's fine but better to be safe than (extremely...) sorry.  I drilled and tapped thread into additional M12 holes to each car mount where it attaches to the rotisserie as an extra fail-safe. Without them the side to side movement is just restricted by the allen head pinch bolts, nothing actually goes though the beam. Does now! I still need to adjust the rotisserie to get the car centred in terms of centre of gravity. If it's too high or too low relative to the rotational centre line of the car, it will be like a turtle and roll onto its back or as it currently sits, I dont think I'd be able to rotate it as it sits as it needs to lift the whole car up as it rotates. Ain't happening... I'm going to be nervous as hell the first time I go to spin it on its side...    
    • Oh yes done this when the window started flopping around.  Turns out the guides that run along the rail chanel had crumbed way. Took off the door card and pulled out the window mech, then the window, which you have to pull out through the top. As said unbolt the guide rail and don't spend 30 minutes getting frustrated trying to find a way to slide it out upwards cause that don't frigging work. Drop it down and out through the door hole. All I did to repair it was slice some 10mm clear plastic tube, vertically, then screw it to the guide rail both sides. This tubing rolls inward on both sides and leaves a gap wide enough to hold the window. To finish all I did was lube the plastic tube with olive oil and Bob's your uncle . . . well if he has the operation he can be your Aunt ! !  10 bucks in plastic tube and another 5 minute job done again . . . . YEH BULLSH#T ! My love for Skylines knows no bounds !
    • So was there a solution to this problem? I’m having this issue now. 
    • not expensive, just irreplaceable if you don't go sub 60 at wakie in that thing people will start talking
    • I haven't replaced that, but I have had the doors apart on the r32 a couple of times The door skin will be held on by a combination of clips and bolts, just take it slowly and make sure all the sneaky hidden bolts are out Once the skin is off you should be able to pop that piece off pretty easily, looks like there are only 2 bolts holding it on
