oh well....

I will definatly be there.... so please don't knock me off the list... just the rest of the crew won't have their cars ready till the end of march...

I'll come down twice.... so maybe we'll just have to organise a cruise saturday night which will be the 29th of March....

what do you think guys???

i'll try to get Jay excited about rebuilding the 180.

we ripped it down the other day and although there is some dissagreement in the party.... I think we will just get away with a hone and a new piston...

actually if you want to check out the photo's of jays piston check out the Wasteland... squizzmobile in hospital/Spank HQ and check out page 55... i think.... it's around there anyway...

it did do a nasty job of destroying the piston....

anyway slip... it looks like it will be just my car in the skid pan day... and I am still really really really looking forward to it....

we'll still bring the crew down sometime... probably on the 29th if you can get some sort of cruise happening it would be awsome...

Ouch, cheap shot :)

Dunno how it'll affect times around Mt Cotton (probably slower, more dorifto!) but the suspension should stop 'incidents' like the one on the way out of Gary's place (tandem drift over the crest of a hill) from being quite so bloody scary... by the way, did Gary tell you his exchange students this time are two 21yo French girls?

/me waits for 'ooh la la' comment :D

I'm from the gold coast and intend on gettin a skyline within the next year (still at uni atm). Got directed here by iNark (mate of mine from melb) who's a bit of a regular. So far the forums have been really helpful and I'd love to come along and check out the qld crew goin nuts and meet some of you :)

Be great if it was March 2, got nothing planned that weekend. So yeh, hopefully me + 1 or 2 mates will come up and have a look once its all confirmed.

    • I haven’t taken them out of the cases yet    inside the box is this packaging which is pretty much like a massive blister pack 
    • Purchased a NC MX5 a while ago Basic suspension mods done, BC coils and Whiteline sway bars  New DBA calipers, discs and pads Added some 17 x 8 Konig Decagrams with 215/45 17 PS5's Added some typical NA bolt on's, i.e. full exhaust and intake  Added 0.5ltrs with a MZR2.5 swap, nice bump in torques  Found a detachable hard top which is locked in for a colour match with my local paint shop in Feb 25, this also includes some PDR as it has received a few love taps from parking in the local shops when in the hands of my Minister for War and Finances, me, I park nowhere near other cars and typically park on the street The little thing is awesome, I drive it everywhere, it handles like a dream whether I'm up it or just cruising  But now,  because I'm a idiot, I keep looking at turbo kits....... did I mention I'm a idiot Why is dose so appealing  All of the NA 2.5 glory, well.......until sometime in 2025 anyway....🤪  
    • I would not be surprised if you are the only person on earth that has the interest/desire to do that lol.  The Haltech base map is a really good starting point, the car will fire easily and drive very well, even on mild boost levels. To me, following your advice sounds like some sort of ancient Chinese water torcher lol (this is not an insult Josh, never change <3)
    • Those car show concepts from the 2000's and 2010's like the Floria and IDx were brilliant and should've gone ahead, at least one of them. But neither Honda nor Nissan are thinking about affordable performance any more, which is truly sad.  Even if Toyota's liquid hydrogen ICE development reaches the point where it's commercially viable and the infrastructure to support it, Honda/Nissan would have to wait until Toyota allow fee access to their patents to offer it with any smaller performance models they released to take advantage of it.  
    • A sporty manual RWD coupe with a IL4 Honda engine would only be a good thing I assume we won't see anything released for a few years though, unless informal talks and designs have been going on for a few years,  and due to the current, and future, emmisions and safety requirements, I assume anything "sporty" they would do would be at least some hybrid thingie And hopefully anything they are thinking of has nice lines, without lots of plastic and fake bits hanging off it like that horrendous FK8 that looked like it was designed by a 13 year old The other issue of course in the current market is cost, currently the type R is around $70k, a twin is around $50k Meh, I'm old and grumpy and would rather buy a older model car and waste my coin on that than buying anything currently available new
