FTO AUSTRALIA

Why dont you tag along in an FTO?
Trying to keep cars outside the club out of this... Normaly would be A-OK but due to this being such a good photo opportunity, we're trying to keep it FTO only.
Sure someone can fit u in theirs...

And update with my new engine... Doesnt look good... at this stage im gonna be blowing smoke everywhere... hahaha...

It's looking like I will be sans passenger so I will probably have a spare seat.

I know its a pain -

i don't know if i will have my car........ i will be selling it soon to get a GR AND TURBO THE F#$%er

Oh dear lord no....

Have you read the headache that is my turbo install? Well over 6 months ago i started it...
Still no where near finished and my car is almost undrivable... I've bought a scooter to get round on...

but if you've got $10-15k spare.....

oh
umm so its not that easy to do???? i just though mivec's had a bit of a probably with stuff

it shouldn't be that hard to do now sam, i just go to the same mechanic you went to and hope his got some idea how to do it now and since i will have a GR engine it will make things easier?

Ok well i will see how i go maybe i won't sell it ahahha (don't scare me like that Sam i had high hopes on my turbo )

Oh dear god no... Dont ever... go to my mechanic... he's dodgy as... He wrecked heaps of stuff and im still trying to get him to replace my Brand new Turbosmart FPR that he broke...

I bought mine as an entire kit... Everything was already premade... piping, intercooler, turbo... the lot... And it still gave me migranes for months.. Doing a kit from scratch would be.... well.... a lot of swearing and trial and error... be happy with what you got... a fast NA V6 that handles like crazy...
If you do turbo it.. make sure you have another car to drive for a while (I've had to buy a scooter my car is off the road that much)

Major *~dreamy~*.
But still got 23 so far.. insane numbers guys... Lets make sure you all turn up... Double check u all have the time off work, etc... And tell your gfs whats happening... nothing like an impromptue tupperware party...

Awesome

Man we so have to have pic of this!!! Well done guys I believe FTOAustralia has moved to Brisvagas!!

lol man there is a lot of FTO QLD members so next cruise we should have like at lest 15

Tupperware party???

The new rage (for my circle of friends/aquintences at least) seems to be the adult version... Vibrators and Cocktails parties

Guess its more entertaining then tupperwear...

Cruise is looking good (: got a particular route sorted yet?

boarsai, so how many do you have in your collection for personal use now?
just stiring lol

yeah i think we r meeting up at 9am i believe at alderly... then heading to... mt... something... then food then something then ppl go home...

on 2nd thoughts, yeah sam, what exactly are planned for the day? i think we must've gone through at least a handful of changes since the start of this thread. so u should probably clarify it. actually probably better to put all the details of the cruise together nice and neat inc. maps and what not. post it up as a new thread lock it and sticky it. so it's right up there. then just unlock and unsticky it after the cruise so we can postwhore in there for at least a good month before it goes out of hand lol.

Doesn't need to be locked... nothing wrong with a thread spiralling out of control and into so many side tangents it hurts the head just to read (when sober)

I'd just like to do the drive before the official trip so I know where we're going ... just in case!

Besides Bo.r.ep, can always have a nice clean Aftermath thread with piccies and what not.

And yes I have quite the collection... hang on what? I've never hosted one of those parties... and there's more too it then ladies toys but generally I go for the free cocktails, amusing antics, crazily open people and well ... did I mention free alcohol? Always makes socialising more fun Sure beats sitting around talking about the latest snap lock containers! Then again so does a lot of other boring as bat sh*t things hehe

Hrmmm....

Will get some maps organised..
Meet at Alderly Arms..
Head down Samford Road towards Mt Nebo. At top of Mt Nebo we stop at a car park for some photos and quick chat. Then we will head back to bris Via Mt Glorious (Fkin awesome drive).
Depending on the time, we will either have lunch in brisbane (Sizzler?)
Then For the highway cruise, with some action shots on the road.. Will be nice to see FTOs filling the M1 6 cars deep. And on to perhaps the Spit for some nice photos (Usually plenty of parking) And that shall conclude the Official cruise. However i have a feeling a lot of ppl (inc myself will wanna do something (maybe putt-putt?) afterwards.
Organising maps today.. And will find out where a sizzler is on the way.
