Motoring Editor Kevin Hepworth of Daily Telegraph's CARS GUIDE has confirmed to-day that on the 17th April, 9 days before

the R34 GT-R 10th Anniversary Charity Cruise, there will be a Feature on the R34 GT-R, an owner and its Birthday Bash up to Mt Wilson. :)

^^^ Old dude indeed!

With friends like you, who needs enemies :( ?

The article comes out on my 60th birthday SO I'M STILL IN MY 50s till then.

There'll be a plug for Skylines Australia too if I have my way!

...even tho' the promotion is about the Charity Cruise from Penrith Regatta Centre > Mt Wilson.

oooo congratulations!

the charity cruise is going to be big!!

if you have your way maybe you could put something in to show that not all import drivers are hoons but enthusiasts who keep it to the track

Good point Benny!

Kevin Hepworth asked me about that too...

If it doesn't get edited out, I told him that anyone buying a car like this takes time to develop a relationship between CAR & DRIVER and that Sylines Australia helps to put ppl straight about improving driving habits/skills...

OK but who's the guy they're doing the interview with?

:P Just kidding :banana: How'd you manage to get the opportunity?

I just sent a couple of E-mails to 2X Motoring Editors at Cars Guide, Daily Telegraph on behalf of this Event being the "10th Anniversary of the R34 GT-R" and that donations would be going to "Beyond Blue" Ray.

It took Mr Hepworth a couple of weeks to get back to me, and things started to move along very quickly. It sounded like he'd just completed an Exec meeting.

I believe that Motoring Editors are looking for something that's a bit out of the ordinary or quirky if it isn't spectacular.

    • @Vee37 How much do you really care about finding these pads again? If your pads are quiet, work well and produce minimal dust, really isn't that enough? If you are set on finding the exact pads again, I suppose I'd do something like this -  Visit your local Jax, find out what brand of pads they carry. If the Jax workshop you previously went to had the pads on the shelf, then you can almost guarantee it will be of said brand.   I'm guessing you don't have the receipt for the previous work and pads. Can you visit a Jax workshop and see if they can look up your previous job to see what pads were fitted?  Still no luck? Put your stalker hat on, find the staff that used to work at the Jax store and ask them. Talk to local workshops, try to find out where the mechanics went to. Talk to Jax workshops, maybe they relocated to another workshop. When it comes to mechanics, its a small world. You'd be surprised how easy it is to track someone down. If these ideas don't work, shit will start getting crazy very quickly.... You could find out every brand and model of pad that fits that car... and try them individually ticking each off the list if it wasn't the one you were looking for.... If you go down this path your going to want to learn how to swap pads yourself, it is very easy, takes minimal tools and space. If you have room to park the car you have room to swap the pads. Plus you have the advantage of making sure all the brake hardware goes back in so they won't squeal! 
    • You miss spelled bearings...
    • Just putting it out there, that's a decent list. You would be better off *not* doing *any* of that and buying someone else's modded car. Like mine. Or anybody else's. Yes it's lotto dependent and all this and that but that 70K (remember, double your guesses) could go elsewhere. Keep it stock, save your money, go lowball @Dose Pipe Sutututu :p
    • Does not mean what you think it means. The continual rising coefficient is the coefficient of friction that continues to rise with increasing temperature. Not "rising during a single stop", except inasmuch as the brakes should get hotter during a single stop. The RR would not be the best choice for a streeter. Yeah....no it's not. JAX would rummage around in the "shit pads we use for all shitboxen that come in here" and install those.
    • @Kinkstaah I've got my list.. but most of them is to do if I ever win the lotto
