Pacific International Suites-Parramatta

has anyopne heard of this place ?

any feed back would be appreciated

dunno the place.. but on the plus side.. its close to where the dyno day is.. other hand its far away from the city.. but not too bad as there is a train station at parramatta that gets you to the city pretty fast..

Parramatta is Sydney's second biggest CBD outside the Sydney city CBD itself, and just about everything you'll need is in or around there. It's only around 10-15mins drive from where the Dyno Day is being held.

Like Sam said, there's a train station about 3mins walk away from the hotel you mentioned, and the train will take you anywhere around Sydney, with fast trains taking around 35mins to get into Sydney city itself. The hotel is pretty much right in the heart of Parramatta, and there's a MASSIVE Westfields shopping centre (was, and might still be, the biggest in the Southern Hemisphere) right nearby.

If you're here on holidays, stay in the city :teehee:

Self contained apartments would be the way to go :(

I'm with Steve-o, I'd stay in the city and for two weeks, you will appreciate self contained apartments for space and being able to make your own breakfast etc. They usually have washing machines and clothes dryers etc as well as everything you need in the way of utensils to cook with.

Lonely Planets "Thorn Tree Forum" is a travellers bible.

There are hundreds of threads giving peoples experience of different hotels etc and this link is one of the more recent hotel questions asked.

http://www.lonelyplanet.com/thorntree/thre...0&tstart=15

I think they are right in saying you will get better priced hotels around Chinatown/Haymarket/Central (train) Station and more restaurants/markets etc. There used to be a yuppie backpackers around Central Station if I remember correctly (I don't live there). But, there are reasonable self contained apartments that weren't too bad value (although none come to mind).

How long are you in oz? Are you planning on getting out of Sydney? Barrier Reef? Other?

I found this link to hotels on Thorn Tree too http://hotels.lonelyplanet.com/hotel/New-S...dney-R2108.html

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
