Yeah oh well So Glenn, who's turn is it for next week, hey what about you PhatMirage, I remember you not minding organising something for next week, you still up for it?

(check my palm-top) its Team Gold Coast's turn next week issit it :(

i reckon its best we split the pack up into smaller groups. say we have about 20 cars or so and the leader/organiser picks/nominate 3 other drivers to lead smaller packs of maybe 5-8 cars.

was brainstorming last night at the shed and realised that i should have pick at least 2 other guys to lead as well so that everyone can arrive safely at the destination albeit in different time.

juz an idea.

Yeah thought about that one too, but then it just involved too much effort for me to get up off my lazy ass and ask 4-5 other people, which is why I thought the "buddy" system works good, plus radios, and hey presto, even though we went through about a million sets of lights and still could not hear you on the radio, we still all made it there in one piece!

Organising 4-5 other "leaders" and breaking up the pack is a good idea, if you could be bothered and if you could find 4-5 people to do it. But then you'd have a lot of chatter on the radio on who is at the back of which group turning where and maybe a bit confsing, Just have someone right at the back with a decent radio and who makes sure no one gets left behind, a job I thought I did pretty well with the help of Erin, prolly without her, it would have made my job harder as my plea's for directions and updates on where to turn where and asking everyone to slow up _might_ have gone unoticed :D

Key points:

1. Always keep a skyline in your rearveiw mirror

2. Always have someone appointed last in the queue, with a radio who knows where to go and can call out to someone in the pack who is listening to slow down or ask for directions.

Easy peasy!

Yep... Well done Ska and NismoGirl...

Guess what Ska? You just nominated yourself for last in the pack at every cruise... :)

You clearly can't handle the pressure at the front!!! :devfu:

Yeah I dont mind, I am looking at buying a in car though, want the range, and a guy here at work seems to think he can get a deal on them, so might do a group buy if anyone else is interested.

NismoGirl what type of antennae have you got, I had a look at PhatMirage's and it's pretty cool, dunno if I really want one of those big ass areials hanging off the bonnet, but guess the bigger it is the better the range........but at what cost :D

Yeah I dont mind being last, just as long as someone listens to me when I call out to slow down I am more than happy to follow :D

Bloody hell it's been a crap day, and I am still at friggin work, BAH time to go home and whore from there!! :D

    • Did you pay with a credit card? I'd be putting a charge back through then finding a new sparky to sort it out. 
    • If you mean the alarm immobiliser; theyre internal to the alarm itself which makes that difficult; I couldnt even see where he put it; its not in the same place as last time; but with all black wiring it might be very challenging to trace  I had someone turn the key for me as I know it only primes for a couple of seconds As my post above; I am getting no voltage to the pump at all; but I am testing continuity of the power line (SB) from the pump plug to the relay fine. As well as the negative from the pump plug to a 12V constant.    Yeah; he blammed the no start on a bad battery; said I needed to get a new battery and it'll start. Turns out the battery drained because the tail lights had been on for half the day during the install (the rubber cushion on the brake switch gave out while he was testing it as I have a picture of the car from that morning with the tail lights off..i've replaced that). The battery was turning over the engine just fine for a long time; but got low since lights were draining it so it was too low to test a start after he finished. I bought a new one on his advice...$250 wasted. My original battery charged up just fine and is healthy.    It was running perfectly fine when I messed up the old alarm (programmed out the remotes). He couldnt start it after removing the old alarm; my assumption is that when he unhooked it; he didnt bridge the circuit back when trying to start it. Its always been perfectly fine. The ECU swap and pump were 2 years ago. It's never missed a beat in that time. 
    • This is a big issue for me without the diff. I just have zero drive from the passenger side when drivers side has no traction. Bec's parents place has a crazy steep driveway with odd camber and I have never been able to get up. My bro-in-law's 130i with an (unknown brand) LSD gets up fine as does their dad's Hiace. My car stays at the bottom. We have other odd camber roads around here as we're elevated a bit and if it's raining I can get totally stuck around some hairpins. 
    • Yeah, I am super excited for this.
    • Was the car running before he touched the car?
