Honestly i would recommend it to everyone. The feeling is undescribable and the memory will last a life time. Definetely would like to do it again some day, might even do the solo if i have the balls.

Scuba diving at the reef is the next thing to mark off my list.

oh hell no - i hated standign on top of the eureka towers - def aint going to jump off some plane with a dude strapped to my back....

Scary AND gay! Imagine if you got the instructor whose wife left him that morning and he no longer had a will to live :thumbsup:

Hahaha I'm scared of heights too (even high balconies / shopping centres) but strangely I don't mind flying or looking out aeroplane windows.

Scuba is a piece of piss. There is no worry there.

Tis very relaxing... i've acually been slack (due to no car) to finish off my divers qual's and then go for more advanced stuff with mix etc etc.

Being my best mate is in the Navy, and a diver, i could go and get on some great dives with them all around Aus if i get off my ass as he is almost qualified dive master

my mates all chipped in to send me skydiving for my 21st birthday, the thing is i didnt even know about it...even on the day. pricks burst into my room at 6.30am n dragged me outta bed n blindfolded me. when the blindfold came off there i was standing in front of the coldstream skydiving sign. the dude there said he's never seen a freak out as good as mine lol but in the end was awesome and i would definatly do it again

I had a ball when I did a tandem jump out of Nagambie bout this time last year. The Mrs gave it to me as a birthday present. Also kind of a celebration of winning my first big poker tournament.

First few secs were some of the greatest time of my life! Would love to do it again sometime.

SCUBA is awesome too. 250+ dives under the belt but haven't headed out for bout 18 months. Hope to do some in Thailand in May.

Ive been meaning to do it forever. Some friendly motivation will help a bunch.

I've always wanted to go solo first up, but I reckon if SAU sky dive was set up I'd probably do w/e everyone else is doing.

new SAU logo coming. 20 sau mmebers jumping outta plane holding a massive sau banner?

Hahah even better 100 SAU members wearing Red and White spelling out SAU, although both are not plausible cause I'm sure you'd be pretty hard pressed to find 20 members who all have their license

jump off some plane with a dude strapped to my back....
an awesome sensation even though it really hurts your cheeks

:D

Certainly not an experience I am interested in.... not that there's anything wrong with that! :)

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      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?

      R34 GTT idle problem

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      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.
