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 used the radium thing, makes the whole parallel assembly a lot more compact compared to any other way of doing it 
    • Racetronix also sells those ethanol content sensor bypass blocks. Adapter, Flex-Fuel E85 Sensor High-Flow Bypass, In-line No Sensor (ADF-FLEX-NS): Adapters - Flex Fuel | Racetronix Ethanol content sensor are originally designed to be on the feed line. These bypass blocks are meant to be ran in the feed line and not return. The continental ethanol content sensors have a 3/8" ID and not 5/16". This is why they are ran on the return line directly in conjunction with a low threshold sampling value VS in the feed with one of these blocks.    Haha we think alike, I used both original feed/return for 8AN feed, and one of the Hicas lines as a 6AN return. I also capped off and left the other Hicas line as a spare. 
    • Interesting, I haven't read about the issue with oil getting into the speedo in the cluster before. I'll have to take more notice with mine. The speedo on my R32's when I've run factory diff and tyre size have never been accurate as far as I can remember. The non Type-M GTS-t did come with 15" 5 stud wheels and smaller brakes, but that's less than 5% of them.
    • Good to hear the condenser you picked up off my brother worked all good. Do you think there could be an issue with your AC compressor itself or the clutch on it then? I don't know a lot about them so I can't really help but keen to hear what it ends up being. Keep the build thread going man, it's nice to look back on over time.
    • This is a story of my life things, I learned eventually (thanks to someone calling me out) that my enthusiasm for discussing and sharing ideas that it came across as arrogance and I'm like... WTF?!    One thing I'm pretty sure I justifiably pride myself on is knowing that everyone will have things they can teach you, and you're always going to find out that something you think you know turns out wrong - you just don't know what it is until you get there.   Just the bursting enthusiasm that comes with ADHD when you hit something that gives you dopamine dumps can come across like you think everyone else is wrong or don't matter. But yeah, I'm a software engineer by trade and also do tuning in weekends and 100% have long had a reputation for  quickly making connections when resolving problems or forming solutions that I've sometimes had to take people form a long walk from start to end to explain how I ended up where I did when it's seemed "too simple" when I've stated my initial case, and had the "WTF" type reaction when they've realised how much was actually considered haha.   My reward is that I get all the curly problems thrown at me.
