Eastern suburbs for now but looking at houses on the lower north shore or northern beaches at the moment.

Eastern suburbs? Yikes, what happened to you?!? :rofl2:

I could ask the same of you - Are you a BMW fanboy now? 😏

I'm an everything fanboy. I seem to want one of every car atm. If only I was a middle eastern prince. :)

Unfortunately, cars are a little lower on my priorities than they used to be. Just moved house and have a daughter going into fricken year ten and another in year 7. Its all doing my head in.

Living the dream :) An unlimited garage and bank account would be nice wouldn't it?

Absolutely. And time to drive them! I bet that GT3 is fun. Totally a fave of mine.

Believe it it not, I have barely driven it. Bought it earlier this year, it arrived the day before my daughter was born so free time wasn't something I have had a lot of, and then we went into a 5 month lockdown and I wasn't able to get to it.

I'm happy to keep it warmed up if you want :)

Congrats on your daughter!!! Is she your first?

Yep. Eldest gets her license this year. Need to find a big open space to let her let it rip.

I'm OK mate - Miss my Skyline, Gloria, Cosmo (ie anything Jap Import) - Still living in Adelaide. Having kids kills the ability to have car projects...... so waiting for them to all move out (11 years to go !) LOL.

20 Years for SAU, that's wild - I still remember my first meet up with you guys, even before I had my GTST. I had the Red VL Turbo and we cruised the Northern Beaches. 

Good Times.

If you weren't SDU before you were SAU, are you even OG? 😀

Car projects are still doable with kids B-man, its the time to enjoy them part that is the issue.

Where in radelaide are you living? DM me if you like - We are down there regularly.

Are you on crack. 4 kids, wife doesn’t work, Adelaide wages. Car projects not happening.

So, while @Duncan has stretched the definition of 'Northside' somewhat, I'm seriously impressed by @B-Manincluding himself from Radelaide. :rofl2:

You have an E500 though, thats super cool.

    • 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
    • I was more thinking so it doesn't flop around as much rather than for rotating it. Once you have the balance right, it should rotate well enough, depending on how much resistance there is on the pivot. I think you said the pivot point was on a bearing though didn't you?
