Cheers KillBill - I do spend a fair bit of time on the M2 up and down to Ballymena area. Irmy skirts and colour coding the bump strips are on the agenda for the 12th holidays.

Dunno why they didn't create an all Ireland region TBH, there are a fair few Miggers down south, who don't have a regional forum now.

I think numbers in the north are a bit too low to be anything big on their own TBH. still, good to see people here

Noooo.....you didn't sell the GTE!!!

Wish I had:

1. The money
2. Somewhere to keep it, or I'd have bought her.

Hope whoever has her now appreciates what they have.

I asked to set up an Ireland region to include everyone but was told this was not possible because the south is outside the UK, so it would have to be North only. Thats why this was set up.

thats the same reasons as why i had to sell LOL.
yes the new owner appreciates ok, he bought it over the phone considering he hadn't seen her in over a year and it had a couple of small niggles nor tax or mot!!!
but i really do miss her

Alright everybody...just joined there. From Antrim and have a Skyline(when i get it back from England), and just bought a '95 Astra TD Sport as my second/winter car. Had a wee Corsa before my MR2 Turbo too. Here's a couple of pics:

The Astra:


The Corsa(now lives in Newtonabbey i think):


Will maybe see a few of you at the meet at Junction One?

tidy looking astra. have you driven one before? Expect misery compared to the skyline, even if it has the cav engine in it. Will never break down though. Lovin the wheels on both astra and corsa.

yeah theyre brilliant that way, and if you're not bothered about the tax man they run fine on dodgy diesel too. It looks great, yellow and black is cool. My car is a goldy coloured calibra but its burst a fuel pipe so its stuck. ive no idea how to change a fuel pipe (the metal section) and im skint!!

Metal pipes can be a pain, but if you buy a flaring kit and some copper piping from the motor factors it's acheivable. Had to do the whole lot on my old BMW, cost me about £30 in total...BMW wanted £540!!!!

If any of you ever go down SeaCat in Belfast on a Tuesday be sure to say hello.

Few hydraulic pipe places will be able to help you out with that kind of thing, including the proper flaring tools.
