when i lived down in melb for a few yrs I loved stumbling home through prahran and getting a lamb on chapel or malvern in the wee hours... now i have uncle tonys.. wtf processed crap?

is there a real souv shop in brisbane?

Souv shop, nah I reckon not.

Hey we musta bin neighbours, I lived at 28 Chapel St, opposite Windsor rail station, just down from Dandenong Rd, then moved toArmadale near Malvern and Orrong. Sheet that was back in late 60's to late 70's

WTF everyone is saying, what are all these strange words, wha do they mean, it's like another langwich, used to knock aroun with a few rought nuts, bloke a few years older than me ended up cuttin his ears off in the lockup, he got famous, but never forgot the kids in the commision flats area in Prahran!

You lot are just spoiled with the density of awesome food joints, I couldn't believe it when I was in Melbourne. I saw probably a dozen gourmet pizza shops on a short walk along the main drag in Kew, lol

Anyway I don't go for chicken burgers much so I can't really tell you where is and isn't good for them, but there are some decent food places around without having to go to a "proper" restaurant.

Thai Ginger at North Lakes rocks the shit, and is well worth the drive even if you're not in the area. In my opinion it beats the Royal Thai Orchid so hard that Chris Brown would be proud.

At Chermside shopping centre there's a little Indian place in one of the food courts, the quality of the food is surprisingly good and they only seem to use chicken breast in their chicken dishes. If I go there I normally grab the Tikka Masala.

Nandos is always a winner, there's quite a few around and there seems to be new ones popping up every now and then.

There's a handful of good places in and around Park Rd in Milton, go for a look and poke your head into a few.

Sizzling Mongolian at St Lucia/Toowong is very nice, quite a different experience too.

There are some nice places in West End too, but also some not-so-great ones that try to hitch a ride with the eyeroll-inducing self-proclaimed "chic" status of the suburb. There are still some gems though, I can't remember its name but there's a little sandwich bar about half-way along Montague Rd that makes really good ham and salad sandwiches. There's a cafe not too far from there which I avoid, it's exxy and the food quality varies quite a lot. A bit further up the road there's another sandwich bar (done up to look like a cottage I think) that does decent sandwiches too.

If you want a pub meal there's plenty around, the Morrison at the Gabba isn't bad, the Broadway's $10 cook-your-own steaks are good and their burgers are top notch. The Irish pub at Kallangur puts on a good feed, the Brekky Creek Hotel, the Norman... there are plenty around.

lol melbourne is king of the privately owned pizza shops. $5.50 large pizza's all day every day, and they're proper large too, none of this domino's shit. In fact I doubt anyone orders pizza from Domino's, Pizza hut or even Eagle boys these days.

    • Ah yes, but the part in my hand was actually painted and fitted by me! I knew any front lip was likely to be sacrificial but I've had to fix it twice already... by the time I buy a fibreglass fixing kit, sort out sandpaper blocks, buy some fibreglass filler, body bog, spend the time and effort for a 'Greg' result... a new one being $290 seems like it's the better way to go and spray that with bedliner/raptor coat and we're all pretty again.. Would have preferred it last more than a month though. Them's the breaks I suppose.
    • I find it funny that the USA is finding out all this really really weird stuff, and people from the USA are coming here treating it like gospel, yet, all the info on solving those issues is here on these forums for the last 15 odd years... Also, I know how much heat it takes to ignite the hood lining of an R33 skyline. I worked it out myself... It also took a LOT of time, and heat for it to do it... Big single, and I needed to drive the car, so retarded the timing off to "protect it". Yeah, that was a bad move for cruising on a freeway with only 15 degrees of timing on it. That was a lesson I learned around 2009. So that's over 15 odd years ago. Aligning water and oil, that's identical for any turbo engine, it's not Japanese specific. If a shop doesn't know how to make sure the core is rotated the right way, then they shouldn't be touching any turbo engine. That's not a matter of "We haven't had Skylines for that long here"...
    • Sounds like it is rotational in the driveline. CV? Tailshaft CB? Also.....didn't you just pay to have that bit painted and put on the car?
    • Yeah, when I dialled my idle down, given how much time I spent idling at the lights in traffic on my daily commute, the effect on overall fuel consumption was absolutely noticeable.
    • Emissions, fuel consumption, heat, noise, etc. most likely.
