Dear all,

It is with deep regret that we must part with the news that respected forum and community member, Rob G (affectionately known as Tweenierob) passed away earlier today after being involved in a fatal car accident.

We have also learnt that Harry (known by all of us as Lamb) is currently in hospital receiving treatment - his condition is as yet unknown.

Whilst we await further news of Harry, we felt it appropriate to remain closed as a mark of respect to all those involved.

Meanwhile, from all of us at Broomhill Hotel hosting the AGM, we wish to pass on our condolences to all concerned.

Yes Dunc's...two vehicles collided...two lives lost and one other seriously injured, two other vehicles were also involved in a minor role and both drivers of those vehicles were uninjured. As a mark of respect and at the request of his fiancee and family could discussion of the accident details be left till police investigation is completed. Thanks

      If you are Ecutek tuned then these TCU tunes are anywhere from $550 to $700 usd. If you are not ECUTEK tuned, then it gets costly!

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?

      Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it

      All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.

      That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
