Not even close!!

Pick mine up Friday night then drive to Loxton.... nothing like cutting it fine! LOL

+1 Martin.

Just picked up the horse float for the steel horse (hrmm, reminds me of a Bon Jovi song) and gotta cut the floor for some tie down cleats followed by the monster task of turning all that fiddly chrome into a mirror........I'm so over it and haven't even started yet cause of all the work that I need to clear first!! :D

Krishy, I've been told that your entrance was paid as well as abes from cara. Since Cara is no longer involved, you should give Stuart a call in regards to this. While I'm not responsible for co-ordinating entrants payment of the show, I would say that perhaps not all items were posted on the same day and that you might get yours on Monday. If not, call Stuart - I know Cara has confirmed on his behalf that they have recieved both yours and Abes entry fees - did you lodge the form with it? In either case, the entry fees and forms are your responsibility and you should follow this up directly with stuart.

Southies should probably follow Sled and Shane

Northies should meet the majority of the pack at Bunnings carpark parafield airport at 12:30 for a 1pm departure after distribution of 2 way radios and plans and a quick word from myself...we'll drive to gawler via heaslip road and then head up to loxton via the barossa bypass route. We'll be keeping to the speed limit 100%, and I'll expect everyone to keep a healthy distance from the man in front so we dont end up chipping our cars on the way up.... the difference between 110kph and 140kph in most cases is only a 5-10 minute difference, and i'm not keen on a speeding fine just to save a few minutes...

on sour news, i hit a spoon drain, 24 hours after picking up my gtr with the spoiler lip fitted and teins fitted.... seems that the teins cant stop the lip from hitting shit... scraped the underside and cracked 2 parts on the front *sigh*

-D

Krishy you should get yours Monday...hopefully, as i got mine on Friday.

I'm not sure which way I'll go, I'm South (Aldinga), and whereis.com.au is saying the fastest/shortest way is to head north to Salisbury, Nurioopta, Blanchetown, then onto Loxton. Hmmm, to leave at 1pm or 2pm...

Shame to hear about the front lip Ben, after all that was done.

You'd probably be better off joining sled and shane. pm them for meeting details.

whereis calculates miles travelled rather than the amount of time you'll spend at the traffic lights. you'll probably get there sooner than us if you follow pete and shane....

however if you're happy to do a bit of a hike, meet us at bunnings and grab a 2 way radio

Travelmate Online:

Gawler to Loxton = 205km, 2hr 43min

Murray Bridge to Loxton = 176km, 2hr 20min

Suppose it depends where you live and how long it takes you to get to either Gawler or Murray Bridge....from my home it's 1 hr either way, (MB is 20km further but no stop lights & has less traffic).

So total km for me would be approx the same either way yet I save almost 1/2 hr off my journey with less traffic to dodge. :)

Succinctly put. If you're north of the CBD, meet at bunnings

If you're south, speak to Pete (SLED) and go via the less travelled route - I myself would prefer the MB route but it would add an hour to my travel cause im in the North East...

Havent yet, Dan has a relative down there so i may try and organise something there.

I may have somewhere you could sleep. I am in the Riverview Motel Suite, apparently it has 1 x double bed 1 x single bed and 2 fold out single divan. I got the double, my mate i am taking has got the single....and then the 2 fold outs, we shall see what happens :P, you may need your own linen/sleeping bag if you sleep on the fold out.

Good thinking - make sure if u get any extra guests u let the hotel staff know and pay the extra.. would hate to see u guys kicked out for staging a gay orgy :D

and dion, its quicker in distance but theres a lot more traffic lights to go thru - we'll call a vote on the day n see what people wanna do...

    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
    • Well the articals keep saying a Q50s (Skyline in Japan) with a new Manual gearbox. I like the talk about the new looks with the round tail lights. I hope they bring back the retro look like they did with the Z
