My biggest regret was to not take any lessons. It looked so damn easy watching everyone just glide down the slopes - how wrong was I. Five years on I've learnt the hard way falling on my face multiple time and dislocating my shoulder.

So a tip to all you beginners out there: TAKE LESSONS.

Hopefully be goin up to buller every fortnight.

Will stay at Hotham for 4days early Aug, gonna have mad time boarding. Used to take my LINE to Buller ( if you love it, take it everywhere ) but with the button clutch in last year, don't think i'm able to throttle it probly anymore in the snow.

Oh also the place i hired ( belong to my boss ) accomodate up to 10 and i've got 5 at the moment, anyone interested joining us? Things would be much cheaper. The house is on Dinner plan by the way.

Also like usual i always have heaps of day trip ( one day ) to Buller as well through out the season so hope to catch some of ya up there . :D

Hey Ferni, how u gonna fit the boards in?? Can u get roofrack?? Mate at least the drive home for u will be enjoyable.

I'm hoping to get a Delica with some mates if we can find one for the right price. Otherwise I'll just have to scab some rides. Not gonna take the R up there.

yeah i'll belive it when i see it - aussie snow is so unpredictable, and i always get crap days here, and falls is flat :)

Check out some of my snowboarding photos :)

1st one is a 65foot kicker doing a backside 180... you can see the people filming me down in the bottom corner

    • I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
    • yeah, there's a country that recently started importing Skylines, I blame them.
    • I don't have a printer, but could at least attempt to make a printable model.
    • If you do make them, im sure you would have a number of buyers.. Every GTR I've been in have rattly door windows
