Here's another good date, and I will probably go and have a look here and spend the day. Would be ideal for a BBQ/meet-up.

The details - GoodFellas Yanchep Picnic, Sunday 14 November 2010. They are meeting at Kingsway Shopping Centre, cnr Hepburn Avenue and Wanneroo Road, Kingsway from 10am. Depart at 10.30am for a leisurely drive North to Yanchep National Park and the historic Yanchep Inn. Meals and snacks available at the Inn or bring your own to enjoy in the park. Free Bouncy Castle for the kids, great prize giveaways in the lucky prize draw. Open to all pre 1978 hot rods, customs and American muscle cars. Sorry, but no dogs allowed in the National Park.

Last year the event drew 240 vehicles

I am not sugesting that we try to cruise with the rods, but it would be good to have a look at them. Entry to the park for us is the standard national park fee of $11 payable at the park gate. Well worth coming up though, you can still buy tickets in the prize draw and they have some great stuff to give away including - tool boxes, engine stand, trolley jacks, chroming vouchers, Cruzin magazine subscriptions, garage art (signs and cool clocks), air compressor, car care products and all sorts of other stuff - you get the idea!

I say that we organise a meeting point and cruise up to have a look.

How about everyone else?

Seeing as it seems that not many (if any) are going to show up at the meet point, I am going to make it 9:15am and leaving at 9:30am. I have a feeling ours will be the only car there!

Jim, I'll meet you at the Caltex. Iolanda (my wife) and Angelina (7yo daughter) will be coming.

I think that it will be a great day. Have to clean the car in the morning. If anyone else wants to meet up at Gateways, please make your intentions known, so that we can have an idea. Cheers!

Marmion ave from Whitfords shops to Yanchep is a great drive. :laugh:

nostalgic .. i came from marmion.. know the area well :banana:

especially that avenue run! .. w.a has by far the best roads in the country!

Nice drive, Nice people lots of nice cars to look at! I think a good time was had by all.

I didn't take many photos and only of 1 car! Had a good day got home in time to Mark Webber crash!!

Oh well at least Vettel's engine blew up!

Yeh cheers for organising John, we had a great drive there and back.

Good to meetup and chat, just wish I could have cruised around and soaked up more british awesome. :)

Will be down for the next cruise for sure.

Suggest that we meet up at Hillarys car park, where we last had a BBQ in the rain one evening, on the foreshore. This is just south of the boat harbour and main car parks.

Say 10 am. Cruise to Yanchep to take in the rods, and have some lunch.

Lets see if we can get more than 3 cars.

How about everyone else?

Oh well NO TURNER-UPPERS!

But anyway we had fun. Went to the lagoon, until the wind got too strong, and then drove down the park. The entry was FREE! so that was good.

Lots of very cool cars. Some of them had a lot of love and engineering out into them.

Good drive too, we managed to miss all the speed cameras and the 6 cops in 3 cars playing hidey on Marmion Avenue.

It really was a perfect day with perfect weather.

Here is just a few of the 340 cars that went in it this year!

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
