While I remember, just a word of warning...

For those thinking of driving down from Sydney, I wouldn't recommend taking the Skyline...

For the last few years, the local constabulary from Goulburn and their buddies from both the EPA and RTA have taken pleasure in setting up a 4 day blitz/defect station at the Marulan heavy vehicle checking station on the Hume Hwy.

Basically they pull over anything that looks remotely modified and go over it with a fine tooth comb with the bastards dishing out the defects like all their Christmas's have come at once.

My brother copped $800 worth of relatively minor/stupid defects on his car on the Friday morning and the place was chock full of cars when I passed it early on the Sat morn (fortunately I didn't take the line!).

No doubt they'll be there again this year, so be careful...

ahh damn.... hopefully i find another car to take down otherwise it will make it 2/2 summernats that i get fined for something.

yeah good idea reddrifter. we should get something organised.

any of you guys that arent staying with family or anything booked accomodation yet?

OMG!!!!! :O

Thanks for the warning :thanks:

That would start your weekend off so badly getting a defect :D

Well lucky as werent planning to take the skyline going to take the normal car and will have 4 of us in it as well..

Definatly want to meet up with most of you guys at a pub or have dinner somewere together :happy:

If anyone knows a good pub or resturant??? Or I might go hunting myself let me know and I will organise something for us so we can all meet up prob the saturday night would be best for us as we are getting down there Friday sometime :)

Saturday is the best day at the showground from 9am till about 1am that nite. Watch all the events etc throughout the day then at night time the main show is on in the arena and then the adult entertainment begins live on stage at midnight.

:D:thanks::happy:

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!  
    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
