did anyone else know autosalon was on last weekend?
did anyone go?
i personally dont even know why they still have autosalon, last few times i went it was just full of poofters in 300zx's (who wear matching fluro clothes to go with their cars) or rice burner lancers with body kits..

[Hanaldo]

I went. It was ok, not that great, definitely not worth the $25 entry fee.

Probably won't go again, it is very much a 'ricer' type scene, lots of Civics and BMW's and the like. I did like Team Fusions display, they were very good, but again I wouldn't pay $25 to go and look at 10 cars for 20 minutes and then leave.

[Socrates]

I went and i liked it would have liked more good looking models to look at

I spent 4 hours there and saw the same dance routine twice.

and yeah $25 was pretty steep as well.

[Hanaldo]

Oh yeh lol, all the models had rude faces. Not a fan.

[NA_Goodness]

Yeah, Team Fusion should have won Best Club! but we got Beat Club Attitude, so that was a bonus! I'm about halfway through processing the photos I took, so I'll post them up once I've finished.
I am glad I got a free pass though, but $18.50 for fkn parking!! I hope there's another one next year though, definitely entering with Fusion next time!

[Char]

wow $25! in 2008 it was $13
i heard there was a few decent v8's but where there actually any decent imports there? or just -N/A shitters with 'awesome' decals etc

quick search on google reveals
"Australia's best known import and high-performance car show comes to Perth next weekend"

pic of one of the z'ds i was talking about


AND
I also found that the DAIHATSU CLUB had a great time! -ahahah enough said

[Char]

u enterd this na_goodness? yes do provide pictures, also plz to provide pictures of the daihatsu club having a good time

[Hanaldo]

There were some nice imports there, namely all in Team Fusion. I voted for Nizsilla for the Peoples Choice, and Leo's R34 is really really nice as well.

JPC's GTR was really the main attraction though, I went to watch that on the dyno and then I left.

[Char]

leo's 34 was painted by my mate havent seen it in years
what power did the gtr make?
last time i was there c-red's cefiro pulled about 800rwhp ls1 twin turbo

[Hanaldo]

The GTR made 440rwkw. Was a bit disappointing actually, they were telling us before it ran that we were going to see over 500rwkw. You could hear the surprise and the disappointment in the announcers voice when it only pulled 440kw lol.

[1via]

i think it made 499 on sunday though

i think entry was expensive, but then think how many car shows does perth actually hold??? i was a bit dissapointed in the amount of cars but i did have fun hanging around the fusion stand. but $18.50 for parking for like 5 hrs

i want there to be one next yr though

[Hanaldo]

Is it the guy in the background with the sweet suit and top hat? I especially like his shoes...

[Char]

1via i believe a huge guy bought it, but when it was at auto salon it was owned by some seedy looking guy who was wearing a fluro orange suit with buttons undone with the hair n big chain n shit, sitting in his car playing with himself

went to ovaboost today aparantly mick got a phonecall on the friday and was told they neeeded cars. reckons he went down in his LJ torana -2jz twin gt35r's n got 800+rwhp and its auto!

[1via]

nah he was the one that owned it back then. and its been in a few magazines aswell

and yeah martin is the guy that you mentioned

[NA_Goodness]

Nah, I didnt enter Char, but I'm part of Fusion so helped them set up Friday night and grabbed a mates Buddy Pass.
That 300ZX is shithouse. I've never liked it, aye. Thank god it wasnt there this year! And no Daihatsu Club this yeah, although one pulled 200hp last time! Lol.





































That's halfway so far

[GreyWolf]

[Char]

those gtc's doo want! weird to see andrews old car n leos right next to each other as they were both painted by my mate
good to see hoonys old 34 has that sticker ripped off, dont know if im a fan of those side mirrors, mine better not look like that

-SPotto WCC sticker on slydr's car

[Socrates]

I went with a mate and we just trained it in from Greenwood, only like $3 each way.

[NA_Goodness]

Cheers guys.

Yeah, since Andrew sold it it hasnt got another sticker! Lol, dunno what he did wrong. Good to see its still around though, even if it had half an interior, lol.

Those mirrors are 33 mirrors which is why they dont seem to fit right. And those GT-Cs were fucken expensive! Cant remember how much exactly, but the blue V35 has 20in GTCs that were $6500!! Lol
