depends, if you are are partial to a spot of anal examination without consent then the cross might be a good place for you to check out j/k ;)

Plenty of good clubs..... sublimes a old favorite for hard house

if its your first time in sydney and havent experienced a new years eve here then its a hell of a treat. the fireworks go OFF and they get bigger and bigger each year. the city will be packed and the chance of getting a taxi anywhere is very slim.

however, ive been to bradfield park, right under the bridge, for the last 4 years and getting bored of it as its the same every year. this year is just a house party and then maybe going to manly.

also like ultim8DTM5 said i wouldnt want to be in the city for NYE. i may be paraniod but im not going to go where there are millions of people in the same night due to the bloody farken terrorists threats. still have a good time.

oh and one more thing. with that indoor skiing/snowborading park, that was one of many ideas for luna park's replacement but it never went through. would have been the best place to go, especially as my school was about a 2 min walk away. :mad:

Thanks dude!! I might have to take you up on that offer...I will PM you when i get there if thats cool?

Yeah I am staying near the olympic stadium as my bro is in an apartment there... I think he will be working most of the time. My bro is head of a large car club in WA and has just moved to Sydney to manage events... you guys might not be familiar with the car club but it is called "Rollaboyz" if things take off over there as much as what they did over here you guys will here of them in the near future... the president is Dan Rucci who came 4th in the King of Auto Salon...anywayz yeah Am hoping to start off straight out of the airport to checking out your guys cruise on the 28th! If any of you guys are going near olympic stadium lemme know!

OK I am now a bit paranoid...has there been lots of threats? i work in a governement building here in Perth and have been doing a few drills....... has there been definate threats at all guys?

I have confirmed times and am paying tomorrow (Friday) as i leave on saturday.... Hmmmm terrorists suck....!!! might rethink about payment... I'd hate for what happened in Bali to happen in Sydney!!!

:lol: HAAHAHAH!! Funny buggers! Does Troy read these NSW threads? I am sure i will get a PM from him soon telling me what his *favourite:shake: * clubs are!

I just finished managing at one of the clubs over here about 9months ago after working in the club scene for 3 years... I would like to see how the clubs are different to our and the pros and cons...

I am really excited about coming over as last time i was there for a HUGE roillercoaster competition bout 2 years ago at wonderland on the bush beast covered by Triple M... had to sleep on the bloody thing! I only got to see Rooty Hill which wasn't really much as we had to stay near the hotel before the competition started so i only got to see wonderland and the Rooty Hill RSL... :-(

My friend also lives in Guildford so that should be good!

Oh yeah and what is Bondi beach like? Is there pieces of poo floating in the water???? eheheh!! sounds stupid but rumour has it that it's a beautiful beach but the water is a bit dirty.....

you've got to see bondi if you are coming over here. there's a kick a55 beach party there in front of the pavilion for new years. it's gotten a bit rough though with fights and such. there were mini riots a few years back

If you were at wonderland for a few days, surely you got to see fatz practising drift down the road at Eastern Creek....

And if you reckon that MMM contest sucked, these other 4 people lived in a suzuki for weeks. Last out won the car, second last got 2 suzukis etc etc.

The other questions have already been answered, but if you'd been here at a different time of the year (or were willing to stay longer), quite a few of the cruises we go on start about 2 mins from your brother's apartment in the heart of the Olympic site (at one of the carparks there), which is a common meeting spot and would have been perfect for you to meet a bunch of us...

Don't forget there's also a cruise to Wollongong on the 29th (Sunday morning). Nice drive down, and a s#!tload of cars meet up there. Lots of rice too, but that's okay - each to their own, and thank god for that!

Hey, if you want to do a BridgeClimb, message/call me and let me know - if you do a dayclimb during the week I should be able to get you a 10% discount. I've PM'd you my mobile number.

I've been to Perth quite a few times. I was there less than 3 months ago for a wedding, and spent my 2001/2002 NYE there at Little Creatures in Freo. Awesome night, and awesome pub. Doesn't hurt that the girls behind the bar (and just about everywhere in Perth, for that matter) are gorgeous!!!

Hope you enjoy the chaos of Sydney as much as I enjoy the quiet of Perth!!!

Cheers,

      Sadly I can confirm if you are actually seeking to drift, you will quite easily spin up one wheel. Even if you're going in a straight line. I am not entirely sure of the metrics/terminology here but there's only a certain amount that the helical will actually spin both wheels. I've seen it on video with my own car where two lines of smoke switch over to just one after you really get in to it. Unlike with a clutch diff where you can keep your foot planted until the car regains grip, in my experience with the helical you want to be utilizing traction control allowing LIMITED slip or lifting (partially) when you start to spin up both tyres with a Nissan helical. Which makes them pretty sub optimal for drifting duty. That said... this is probably a helical on numbers alone. Just put the Kazz in

      Let's just fix the problem by f**king the rest of the gearbox.

      Unlikely, as per Greg's post. This is not helical diff behaviour unless one wheel is up off the ground. Shimming what? You don't "shim" a mechanical LSD. Probably not in the sense that you have heard of people "shimming" a diff. And the process that Nissan f**kwits call "shimming" a diff involves super-preloading a VLSD cartridge against the side of the diff to create a friction/wear point (in a place that it wasn't supposed to have one) to make the sloppy, useless, viscous diff into a hybrid viscous/mech abortion. In case it isn't clear, I consider the process to be stupid. Nike.
