You can have any spot you like . Because you did such a ace job last time.. :D

As for me.

Im driving this time. but that wont stop me helping out when i can.

Awesome Anna - have marked you down. Your a legend!!

Danielle - ahhhhhh....... if I say yes will it put you off :(

I always take an umbrella up with me just in case it rains. We have been VERY lucky with the weather though. I beleive we've had rain only once and it was during a Nov or Feb event - 40 degrees all day, then BAM storm blew in.

Bec, sorry huni sadly yes....lol

Wind not good for hair, but that can be dealt with, rain however not good on the make up which will end up all over the place like an emo version of the joker in batman :)

Yes I'm soft and with a chance of rain....its a no no.

1. Get a lift up with someone else, there's a total of 50 cars coming up probably all from melbourne, there may be a spare seat somewhere.

2. If you can navigate an online forum then you can operate a stopwatch.

3. The 'dude' complainging is actually a chick :P

Anyways.... as Dave said, surely you could figure something out to get up there and it is easy to help out. See how you go, it woudl be great if you could get up there to help us. Let me know definately if you can figure something out.

Cheers

Also, Martini Racing (in conjunction with the WRX Club) have offered us 2 gift vouchers which we will be raffling off to our volunteers on the day.

1 x $100 and 1 x $50 voucher

So everyone who helps out (1/2 day minimum) will go into a draw to win one of these vouchers.

    • Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.
    • Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
    • Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?
    • You just need a different blue slip shop (preferably one you regularly use as a mechanic), and make sure the coil overs are as close as possible to standard height
    • yeah the sugar refining companies were pushing for the same in Oz originally, all fuels were going to have 10% ethanol to make them "cheaper" (noting, that the loss in l/100 might be greater than the decrease in price). I guess they won that fight in Canadia
