Yea so much stuff has been canned today cos of this dust storm aparently like 4 or 5 gigs booked today have been canned just cos the clients have decided they dont want to hold an event today cos people wont attend.

i wish my gig would do that but no mine just keeps going dust or not.

In all my 49 years on this particular planet I have only ever experienced such a dust/sand/soil storm once and I was like about 9.

Bloody amazing.

I painted the radicals front splitter in the garage last night in yellow and expected it to be brown when I got home,,,but no all is good and my big puppy is clean..

Go figure,,,.

Some poor farmers will be crying,,,where's all my top soil?. I feel for them unfortunate buggers.

If my memory serves me correctly, it was 49 yrs & 9 mnths ago that there was another big dust storm like this one.

TV programming shut down late at night.

Dust storm was raging outside.

Your parents went to bed early & Neil was conceived ! :D

as far as I'm concerned they can come over and take all their shit back!

ewwww

Was outside working in it from 5am till 2pm. Got halfway up the mountains by 8am and had light rain which got rid of the dust but made my truck look like I had been driving through mud.

The worst part of the day was the wind up the top of the mountains, I was in the back of the truck sorting out boxes and got hit by the wind side on that I actually thought another Landcruiser had smashed into me, thats how badly the truck was rocking.

    • 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
