Hey guys,

One of the more revered members at Aus300zx has fallen victim to an unfortuntate tragedy. Eric's wife is currently in a semi conscious state after dying for 35min and losing a lot of blood (3.5L or so)! All this happened a few days after she gave birth to their 4th child. The guy has had to close down his shop and stay at home as the primary caretaker. Definitely a major loss for them.

Eric is the mechanic that a lot of the guys use and definitely knows his stuff and has a lot of credence and respect in their community.

You may remember Mike from aus300zx who joins us on different cruises, he's asked me to get you guys to join.

They reckon that they can bring 20 Zs for the cruise - lets show them what RBs (and VQs) can do!

  • WHY: A2ZED & WOOSHKA FUNDRAISER CRUISE - BBQ - SHOW & SHINE
  • WHEN: Sunday 3rd of March 2013
  • WHERE: Meet at Glenaffric St The Gap (there is a nice big carpark there) 9:30 for a 9:45-10 departure
  • WHO: OPEN TO EVERYONE!
  • WHAT TO BRING: CASH! :yes: ..lets not beat around the bush here!
  • ENTRY: What you can afford to give per car. Don't be a tight ass. I think a cost per car of $100 might be asking a bit much - so its really whatever you can contribute to the fundraiser.. (Even if its just $98 bucks!....) :woot: Seriously though, if thats too much, please just contribute whatever you can! .. like $95 bucks! (or whatever)...

Route:

  • Meet at Glenaffric St The Gap (there is a nice big carpark there) at say 9:30 for a 9:45-10 departure.
  • Cruise up over Mt Nebo and Mt Glorious. Stop at the bottom of Mt Glorious in one of the parks for a re-group and stretch of the legs.
  • Continue on to Fernvale Memorial Park on Brisbane Valley highway.
  • Arrive 12ish for a BBQ at 12:30.... everyone can sit around and have a good catchup!

Cost for BBQ:

  • $5 for a sausage in bun
  • $10 for a burger
  • $3 for a soft drink

"Yes inflated prices but its a fundraiser not a soup kitchen" - Loud'N'Proud ;)

Show and Shine 1pm - 2-2.30pm (THERE WILL BE PRIZES!)

Then head home via Warrego highway and Ipswich motorway.

We make available Wooshka stickers for donations / donating participants so you show off your support with pride! :woot:

Can you please advise early if you are coming so we can organise catering. Otherwise you might go hungry! (and ill take your money anyway! :yucky:

The guys would be there to help us if we lost one of our own (god forbid), so let's dig in and help them out!

Plenty of notice so hope to see you guys there!

Cheers,

Tony

Actually Tony i'm not 100% sure if we're even going to Toowoomba via Brisbane yet, it's going to cost us too much money in flights and travel and everything. Plus we've left it a bit too late to book flights so the prices have gone way up and we are awful at committing to plans. I'll let you know but.

    • Hey all, not sure how active SAU is anymore but will ask away anyways. Just wanted to get some experience on the 2008 model GTR CBA model.  I've hit that age in my life (43) where I'm like fk it time to get my dream (midlife crisis) car. Looking at importing one in and seeing if these can be reliable if the main flaws are fixed up. Plan is to keep money aside to do the following straight off the bat to future proof it: * install a stage 1 rebuilt trans with all new bits and pieces.  * install a new Bellhousing from the later model GTRs. Or potentially an upgraded stronger version like MAD or ATR. Besides the above two things and typical maintenance items anything else you'd recommend doing.   Been speaking to a few people and the engine on these are very reliable apparently. But keen on the view of the community here. Hoping to find a nice grade 4.5 with low mileage in Grey. I'd go black but swirls too easy. Look forward to your responses and feedback. Cheers    
    • Do Alan and Keith work on Skylines now? I remember buying stuff from them when I owned my Ralliart Lancer a few moons ago. Definitely genuine guys and be excellent if they dealt with the skyline platform as well.
    • Hey all, I'm Gaston from Sydney's West.  I was a member on here when I was a younger lad and owned a mint R33 GTS-T. Ended up selling it and getting married having kids (yadda yadda) we all know how the story goes. Now I'm back with the intention to get my midlife crisis (dream) car ... a R35 GTR.  You'll see me about asking questions and searching the forums. Good to be back and can't wait to get back an Import again.
    • I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.
    • Engines and drivelines are not war stoppers for me mate, busted arse bodies and un-obtainium parts and panels are though Both cheap Brumbies I looked at had trashed tubs and a fair bit of rust
