Yeah, once again, suggest places to go visit, with awesome scenery, good dinners and stuff. I can even take a flight to Sydney or Brisbane for her birthday. The whole cook for the girlfriend at home with candlelight and all doesn't work anymore since i cook for her all the time, dinner at home isn't special anymore, i've run out of things to cook anyway.

Suggestions! I have a budget of say, $500 to burn on this celebration. Not inclusive of airfare if needed, that can be extra. Sigh, i'm asking because i've only been here for like 3 months, so i'm still fairly unfamiliar with the place. This whole thing will take place on the 14th and 15th of November, so i've got time to get things sorted.

What about Mount Dandenong? There's a restaurant there called Skyhigh, I was gonna take my girlfriend there for her birthday.

But now I'm taking her out for dinner down in Mornington Peninsula, then I booked a private mineral bath down in Rye (Peninsula Hot Springs), then gonna take her down to Rye beach and spend some time there :whistling:

Mornington Peninsula is nice, I've rented a house there for a couple of nights this Easter and last Easter break. Beaches there are nice, good views from the holiday houses, and as Charles said the Hot Springs are a good place to go.

ask her ? but in a sneaky way.... heard this guy do it on the radio ...

tell her you have a day booked for you two, and then get her to write down her guess's and what you have planned just to see how close she is.

then use those idea's and make a day of it .... birthdays and xmas are no longer a head ache!

cause obviously she is writing down what she likes and wants.....

What happens if she writes down the same thing everytime? lol

Then birthdays and xmas just becomes a routine :(

Brekky from the B&B you stay at....

RACV site lists heaps... budget 450ish for two nights, you want a self contained cottage with spa and log fire.

If needed I can suggest accommodation too :(

I recently spent a night at Mills cottage in como cottages olinda

We had a fantastic time. Spa, open fire. Ultimate romantic place.

Went up to sky high for dinner. Will cost you about $260 a night on fridays/saturdays or $195 during the week.

Highly recommended

just come to my place, will watch the fast and the furious

Loll

anyway back on topic..,i thought skyhigh was pretty good wen i took the lady there, for 500 bucks i'd say do a full day thing and take her to a few places,,and enjoy the drives in between :P ,,but yeh its the spending time together part thats important, so jus try goin to places where theres a lot to do

have fun,chief

How bout Apollo Bay.... Nice drive there along great ocean rd.. Then stay somewhere nice.. Some cool stuff to see around there to in the ottaway ranges.....

I was planning on renting a sports car and doing this for my gf's bday, but no one rents out a new mustang :P

I just did peninsula hot springs with my girlfriend. Massage and bath and then had lunch at Rye. Hot springs massage and bathe is like 125 each peak season.

How did that go? I'm going there on thursday night :)

    • 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
