I was actually down at Albert park coincidently and was looking for a car park in a white BMW. and saw few skylines down there and whole lot of people in a group so i'm assuming that was the meet yesterday. looked like there as were a fair few people. well I'll may be next time i'll catch up with everyone.

Ok - was it just me or was there a serious lack of Skylines at Mordy?

The car park was FULL but I was there from 8:30 - 9:30 and the only Skyline I came arcoss was West's R33 who was there just to enjoy the nice evening!

Please explain!?

Snowman: Not sure how you missed us. We were there from about 9-10pm there if remember, near the chicken shop :)

Was a good night - thanks for coming out everybody and it was a great night and i'll remember it for a long time to come in sunny QLD!

The climb up the hill was great fun as usual with just me and my mate's GTR. Skyhigh carpark was closed but hung around outside for a bit, then down the scary route, but also one of melbourne's most challenging. My mate (charlie) survived his first ever virgin SAU cruise in tact and i think he had fun, so you'll probably see more of him in future ;)

Here are some photos I took of the night. Still getting used to the ins and outs of my new digital camera, so some are a bit erm, "artistic" to say the best, but you get the idea.

Unfortunate about the cops, but guess i got off pretty lucky considering the headlight and things, so maybe I'll leave with a slightly better opinion of VIC cops. Dandy doesn't have the rep it does for nothing. Trying to get a defect cleared before Wednesday would have been a right pain in the ass. Traffic along Belgrave-Hallam rd sucked, as that is usually a nice 100+ zone, but not much you can do.

:boobs:

Ok - I was at the beach - not at the shops! I was in the car park near the Mordy pier. Next time I will do the smart thing and take any contact numbers with me that are available.

Sounds like you had a good night - it was an awesome night for a drive thats for sure.

Snowman: I saw a bayside 34 turn left (from city) at the first Mordy roundabout - ne'er to be seen again. Can you PM me your number for future ref. You missed us by about 10 meters :cheers:

Was - as always - good fun. Great to meet some new people. Was a lovely sight watching the stove-stops wind their way along Beach Rd. Much pleasure to see an unmarked SS using 'discretion' as we all passed calmly and sensibly - although at about 10km above the limit. More patrols, less cameras - a much better situation for all.

Had a bit of fun heading home trying to shoot flames (success!) for the OFNSIV boys. Pulled up at lights next to a VS-Exec. Unprovoked - the driver told me he's love to go for a run but had just rebuilt his engine and didn't want to blow it up. Smells like performance anxiety to me :D

Stopped at Coles in Prahran on the way home (cereal, milk, eggs, juice & catfood) and watched the chap-lappers for a while. Saw a not-very-tastefully modified R33 GTR in pink/purple/pearl paint with a black (painted) bonnet, red (painted) interior, carved 'gills' on the front guards and no lower lip. GTR-007.

Yucky.

All in all a good night out ;)

seen that one somewhere before...was not really impressed...waste of a car.

Was a good night wasnt it!

pity about all me sneezing :Oops:

Glad to catch up with a few of the usuals (and new members too)

I'll be back on the cruise organising next year, too much happening during Christmas to try planning anything.

Oh, and Jag... LOVE the 7000rpm drop of the cluch and smoke starting to billow out from the wheel arches till the Atessa says hello (or you back off)

:headspin:

Yeah Ash it was weird, when I dumped the clutch it popped out of first and into neutral, that's why I went nowhere in a hurry!!!!

Didn't notice any smoke though?!?!? Seemed ok after a good hiding on the way home..... gotta luv GTR's!!!!

    • I'm not up to date on the latest, but for basic modifications like pod filter, lower springs etc you can get a modification permit at the time of inspection.  For more serious modifications you will need engineering.  Intercoolers used to fall into the mod permit rule but its been a long while since i looked it up.   Either way you will be able to get it registered, just a case of $300 vs $3k . 
    • Hi everyone! I’m the new owner of a 1996 R33 GTS-T, I’ve purchased this car over from Queensland and brought it to Western Australia and I’ve found that there is a hole cut out in the engine bay for the FMIC that enters into the wheel well (fender liners are in the boot). For anyone that has had to get their car over the PITS here, will this be a major issue?   
    • Yeah I've spotted this one too, whenever it's lotto superdraw week and I'm browsing car sales dot com for my new ride They must be dreaming, maybe it's worth 150k for the link to Brock?
    • 100% accurate!  We are a pack of know it alls....  But, I bet people go to you when they have a problem! I've been on a bit of a clean up rampage too over the past month!  I've thrown more shit in the bin over the past 2 weeks than I have in the past 3 years combined! Anyway, it's all good fun being different! My wife sometimes does not agree!  
    • ADHD in all form isn't about "can focus, or can't focus" or is hyper active or isn't etc.   It's all a dysregulation. Either time feels to be stationary, or time just vanishes in a split second. We are either under focussed on the task at hand (as we're over focussed on our surroundings) or we have no idea an atomic bomb went off beside us as we're so hyper focussed and locked in on things.   Not to mention the rapid fire thought process. What it takes a "normal" process to think up a solution to a problem, ADHD will be able to give you 5 different ways to solve the problem, and the pros and cons of each. While we can be highly impulsive and lack the ability to "control ourselves" we can also become paralysed with the inability to make a decision for ourselves. While most of us have an OCD like requirement for perfection, we lack the ability often to remain focussed to get things to a perfect state. Those with undiagnosed ADHD as adults, can often find the last part actually stops them ever attempting to do things that they have the ability to do, as the reasoning is often "if I can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing"   As for projects... Ha ha ha, I still need to take the other half of my wall trim down in the Fiance's office so I can paint it. Need to finish digging and running the back yard drains, my R33, getting the Ninja bike registered (now being sold), the moped project, fixing either of the lawn mowers so they're reliable, along with a myriad of other things.   It's why I've been going through lately and just being brutal and clearing projects off that I won't actually ever complete. IE, moped will go to the tip, or be given away, bike is being sold, Subaru project being sold, some parts for other projects given away. Or I've been making myself focus on one thing at a time, by ticking off the smallest quickest ones first.   There's also a reason by our mid twenties we seem to be "know it alls", as we've all been down some of the weirdest and oddest rabbit holes when you follow the dopamine trail. It's often also why we're more a jack of all trades, but not a master of one.   However, pretty much all of my hobby projects, in one way or another, all come back around to automotive. That's my zen area.
