justin....well...umm, yeh...:D

there's a few of us on SAU and who were on SDU (in the "old" days hehe) who will always try to come along if somethings happening...

going from history, alot of ppl have joined us for a cruise or two, and then either sold their car, or don't check the forums or whatever...

so it's pretty hard to organise anything and rely on a big group. So it's a bit of luck (or not) on who hears about it and decides to come.

matey, all you can do is set a date and a time and hope for the best. And stop waving that yellow bum at me hehe :D

Oh, and i have an idea...only if no one else has anywhere they particularly want to go??

i went on a Rotary cruise the other weekend, and we went for Sunday morning coffee at Zefferellis (sp?) in Belconnen. It was actually closed cos it didn't open till 11 or 12 or something, but that's beside the point cos we would be there later in the arvo.

What i was thinking....we meet somewhere more Southside-ish and take a bit of a long route across town, and stop there for afternoon coffee/snacks?

There is shitload of parking outside the door too.

By the time we meet, chat, take a few pics, drive across town, park, eat, chat...that's a couple of hours at least...and nice and casual (ie. not some huge cruise out of town).

sorry for the two LONGGGGG posts...god i can waffle on...anyway....depends what u want to do justin...it's your cruise :D

    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
