I've always wanted to visit Australia, this makes me want to visit even more. I spent a week in Australia and I had a blast; it was an absolutely amazing time. My favorite part (other than the Submariner chicks as Im a Submariner myself) is Kebabs. Oh my God so delicious. Those places are everywhere... If youre looking at getting over there and snot spending money on a place to stay, you could always look at couchsurfing.org Its a great program. Quote Link to comment

ggzilla Posted February 12, 2012 Report Share Posted February 12, 2012 Did any cars go missing during the picnic? nice B110 Quote Link to comment
Gary Posted February 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2012 See! It DOES fit! *Looks outside at his Q* Someday.... width wise fits fine :D there was about 30cm between the back of the engine and the firewall though, it had a (im guessing R33 GTST) 5speed and adaptor which i guess meant it was better to have the engine further forward to suit the shifter position. ive got more pics if you want to see That 520 is freekin sweet!!!!! Did the roadsters come with L engines elsewhere or was that maybe swapped in?? :blink: man that 520 was immaculate, didnt look restored at all either :) only guessing with the roadster, but id say since the stock engines are hard to get parts for here the owner might have dropped an L in instead What is the name of the silver wagon with the rumble seat in the way back rocking the black steelies? I want one! its a datsun 260C, i think its related to cedric/glorias Did any cars go missing during the picnic? i was tempted to make a few of those roadsters go missing :P Quote Link to comment
