Hey everyone, I couldn't find a welcome yourself thread so I decided to make one of my own.

My name's Charlie and on Saturday I picked up my R34 GT-T. The R33 has been my dream car since I was 12 so I'm pretty please with myself to have trumped it with a 34 :thumbsup:

The car is stock apart from muffler and BOV, 42,000 k's, just imported by Kamikaze Motors in Nunawading. (great place btw)

Looking forward to taking it out on some drive meets and catching up with some of you! :D

Ciao!

Also dislike your comment about trumping!

But welcome to SAU, and may I say nice bike.

Late notice for you, but you should come along to SAU Vic's general meeting tomorrow night (Tuesday). Details are posted in this forum section. It's a great way to meet like-minded Skyline enthusiasts and find out about future official cruises / meetings held by the club. There are also plenty of unofficial cruises / meets held by the friendly folk who frequent the Victorian section of SAU.

:thumbsup:

Next up you can trump the 34 with a 32...

Hey Birds I just signed up for SAU-Vic, who do I kick to get that glorious little Vic Club Member badge on my account?

Hey Paul. How long ago did you sign up / pay? Have you received your membership information in the mail? Sometimes it can take 2-3 weeks for this stuff to arrive (we often have a small backlog of memberships to process) along with assignment of the forum tag and members section access. I'll give the boys a little kick for you :thumbsup:

I paid quite some time ago, got my stickers and stuff last friday.. first time I'm using a Lanyard for my work ID.. you should all be thankful as I've been asked three times about it, free advertising woo!

..but still cant see the other forums to lurk yet.

Also, hi new forum person, and I agree with the trumping comment :thumbsup:

Patience padwans, it does say during the membership application that everything can take up to 15 (?) business days...which translates to about 3 complete weeks. Ash relegates the forum access / tags and the guy is always buttoned down with work so it'll all happen in due time. You haven't been forgotten about :thumbsup:

Kinkstaah & paulR32gtr – (27th Nov) you submitted 9 business days ago.

pplatr34 – you submitted online on the 8th... a whopping 4 business days ago.

The form you filled out quite clearly states 15 working days.

It is clearly stated for a reason guys, we need time to reconcile & process applications. Things dont just 'magically' happen unfortunately.

A bit of patience would be nice, your applications will be processed within the 15 business days.

Thanks

Ash

Charli - Welcome :thumbsup:

Never said I had been forgotten about :thumbsup: I was happy to throw money at the site because I know all of this stuff isnt magically free.

I found it interesting I got the stuff in the mail before the access appeared on the forum.. thats all..but happy to contribute even if no stickers arrived or no forum access ever appeared, due to the info on the boards that I am sure Charli will make good use of!

I'm also suprised noone's done the whole "IT'S A GIRL!" yet.

haha thanks for the welcome all... and the trumping comment was only in my own terms... I have a major soft spot for R33's but the fact that I could get a newer model single turbo was a pleasant surprise :D (and couldn't find a R32 GTR with only 40 thou k's :D )

I think they are all beautiful cars though, one day I will have one of each :)

Time to drive home! (Awsome)

      Nah no bearings, just slip fit.  Would be a reasonably challenging but not impossible job to modify it to run bearings but I'm hoping that's not necessary as I may have well built one myself if I end up spending hours modifying it!

      Brumbys with good shells are bloody expensive, I've looked at 2 "cheaper" cars, and walked away from both,  plus after some research spare parts are fairly sparce I'm starting to think that I missed the boat on finding a clean one that is straight (ish) and without alot rust I'm starting to think about a old Hilux as panels and other parts are much more available as they sold tens of thousands of them I use to be indecisive but now I'm not sure

      A Brumby would probably fit a big metal toolbox in the back... this is how it begins

      Picked up a new OEM boot seal for the MX5 today as the old one got ripped a bit by me being a idiot by seeing if I could fit a large metal tool box in it, it didn't fit, and ripped the seal with the corner of the tool box I am still waiting on time to get the cams and new balancer installed, as well as the repairs to the boot Time will not be an issue soon though
