Just a thought: How many rear wheel drive 4cyl cars are available at the moment......

So cafe from 5pm onwards? And who is bringing the camera?? :D

Brand new with no oil!!? I hope that doesnt lead to problems down the track! Maybe its just me but I didnt know you could get red leather haha! Looks awesome mate

Drifters on ACA tonight

Something black for sure! That one above is very nice too!

Thoughts? Im leaning towards the black one. Sorry for my crap photoshop haha

Im gonna go ahead and suggest Saturday 7th of July 7:30 pm discuss.

Seats arounds 100 people but there are probably less than 20 car parks. And that's if we all box in tight! I agree someone should start up one of these but bigger! That's what I said when I first saw it haha

Just got an email back: they cant book us the parking lot unless we book the whole venue which is minimum spend $2000! But they can reserve a table. There's plenty of parking on the street anyway. I know what the chances r of going the same night as another car club lol. Let's just settle on a date and time

Hey JD Will probably be going staggered 9.5 and 10.5. Havent chosen tyres yet. Havent even chosen rims lol. Was gonna try get 18" but might end up with 19.

Any advice on matching tyres? Just wondering how accurate this chart is: http://www.tyres-pneus-online.co.uk/equivalency-tables-advice.html Specifically the 'minimum' tyre width. If JD is putting a 215 tyre (I think!) on a 9.5" rim looks like its not really recommended. But I would like a bit of stretch (and save some $ ) so how do you work it all out

Garage Cafe Meet Up Date: July 7, 2012 - start lining up to get in from 5pm (so we can get at least 15 cars inside to have the place mostly to ourselves) Address: 221 Berkeley St, Carlton Meet up for dinner and chat there. Then possible mini nite cruise afterwards from about 7pm (weather dependent). Mini nite cruze will start from Garage Cafe in Carlton and finish up at Diamond Creek train station (not far from the start of the Ring Road) which is right next to Maccas. Distance 80km and about 1hr 40min with a few toilet stops along the way. Route map will be handed out on the night. Menu GarageCafe_menu.doc Bring a jumper or coat if it's cold - heaters are only near the eating areas and probably need more heaters because the ummm front door is always open It's a bit tight inside for parking so if you want there is heaps of free on-street parking around nearby. As xr6t_ute said, "Just a tip for all going... If you want to leave early dont park your car inside, and especially dont be the first to park, as everyone will need to back all there cars out." Beware of the driveway lip - it's a bit angled for those with lowered cars. Nothing to worry about - I could get in and out - just turn into the driveway rather drive straight up the driver way (if you know what I mean). Pics of Garage Cafe in Carlton (the back of City Ford) Sorry for the spam =] For those interested in coming along for the mini nite cruze: RULES: 1. Obey all laws whilst on the cruise; this means no speeding, no overtaking over double lines (no matter how safe you think it may be), etc... 2. There is a designated cruise leader who will lead the way and set the correct pace for all cruise members. 3. Use the Buddy system - always make sure you can see the car behind you. This will give people behind you an indication on where to turn to make sure nobody gets lost. 4. CB Radios - if you don't have one, follow the maps and directions given out. It is highly recommended to have CB as it enhances the enjoyment of the cruise being able to hear about road hazards and join in on the social chatter. 5. Please turn up to the meeting points with a sufficient fuel in your tank and enough time before the departure time. 6. Onus is on the owner/driver to ensure their vehicle is safe to drive on public roads and meets State road traffic authority laws. 7. Please ensure you have a contingency plan if you have a breakdown or unnecessarily delayed. e.g. Roadside Assistance or a mate in another car who is willing to stay with you if necessary. 8.

Speaking of meets, check out the next Vic cruise thread. We should have a meet up at Garage Cafe in Carlton. I'll put up some picks when I get home. It's an awesome looking place great way to show of your car and meet forum members!

Monthly meet would be awesome! Looks like we got a bit of interest for it too. There was a C63 amg coupe on the night so he might have traded in the audi for that

How about this for a small meetup. I went here the other night with my mate for the Melbourne S15 club. There was also a vw golf meetup at the same time lol Its called Garage Cafe and its in Berkley st Carlton (next to Melb Uni really) at the back of city Ford. Its like a converted garage. Parking is free and you can fit 15-20 cars inside (plenty of parking on the street). The food is Indonesian. Very cool atmosphere and perfect to show of your car and chat to other owners. Would probably need to book just to make sure there is no other meetups on the night Pics:

Any idea on offsets for that pink one? Looks like 9.5 +12 all round.

Should sit like what JD has on his ute. Im also looking at wheels like those rotas just cant make my mind up between colours haha. I prefer the rota grids but not sure on colours - only in silver, matt black or shiny black I think. They have a P45R2 black with polished lip sooo leaning towards this. If you get them be sure to post pics!!

Cool im still trying to get my head around all the tyres/wheel sizing stuff. Thanks for that!

I was trying to work out the sidewall height lol Is that 245/30 and 275/30?

Those utes look awesome on 20s! What size tyres are they btw?

For over $1K I think I would have a go myself. Just buy the mount and get some autometer gauges off ebay And if you just wanted boost and you're on a budget, you could always go to supercheap and pick one for 20 bucks lol. It does the job just fine!

Heres the link for the blue xr. Dont know about brembos http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10151556622270713&set=t.100001811235455&type=3&theater

This one should be labelled NSFW: This is with 19x9.5 + 30 Varrstoen wheels. Just trying to work out what it will look like on a black ute! Think im gonna go for the 18x9.5 +15 fronts and 18x10.5 +15 rears. But not 100% sold on the matt black on a black car idea

Just saw this thread today. Didnt think I would see a such a big thread on weight training here! Anyway just wanted to say - The education of a bodybuilder by Arnold Schwarzenegger is a good place to start. Its a good read too! And while your at it watch Pumping Iron! I bet Pazzo agrees with me!

Nice! didnt think there would be any room to mount it somewhere like that Hows the viewing angle?
