A big change from what i previously posted. Steve (MADAZ) has called me with an idea.

We will be contacting the Mawson Lakes Hotel (venue non-negotiable, chosen due to accessibility and parking) and speaking to them about hiring their function room for a night in early March. We are going to go around the the local businesses that support SAU and vice versa, to ask if they would like to donate, and if they do, invite them along to the dinner. The Advertiser / channel 9 will also be contacted to either provide a story or coverage of the event in their relative media, which will be great advertisement for the Mawson Lakes Hotel, SAU and the Business Traders who often save our asses week in, week out.

Steve and I are also looking for a few volunteers who can help with organising, or have any contacts for Business Traders who want to donate. Donations may be in the form of cash, or in products, as we can raffle off or have an auction on the night, all proceeds going to victims of the current Victoria Bushfires of course. PM me if your up for donating some time and effort into the event.

The date for the event will be announced as soon as we settle more details, most likely Tuesday or Wednesday night.

There are alot of natural disasters happening in the world almost monthly, but when Australia has a disaster that will more than likely double the death toll of Ash Wednesday, Australians can and will support those who have lost Cars, Homes, Friends and Family.

Thanks Damo bit hard for me to always post at work

any and all help will be greatly appreciated

there will be a donation fee for non business's to attend yet to be confirmed but in leaning towards $10/ head for normal people and $50 for business traders

this thread will discuss idea's for a little bit

definately keen to help out where i can. Happy to approach some businesses i know and maybe even my work. Might be an idea to get something in writing to take around to businesses, rather than us just rocking up and telling them, give them something to read.

Great idea guys, could be some great exposure for all involved and a great chance to help out those that have lost so much through the fires.

Just uploaded a pic from a friend of mine so we all get somewhat of an idea if we havent already.

This is her parents backyard.. the only thing that saved them was the river directly behind them so it acted as a break and a resource for the fire crews

    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
