We'll be going, might try to get a car on the SAU stand this year, probably the silver GTR if I can get nicer wheels to fit over these brakes - Will take the BSM GTR and open wheeler to the SDMA stand.

Unless its p!ssing down rain of course, then I think I will stay at home... I know Im slack.

F1 is on in the afternoon, so unless you're in Melbourne to see it live, you can still come to wheels and watch the F1 in the afternoon :woot:

I think John has the banner... not sure who owned the tent from last time (might have been John as well?)... so I guess if he's going, then the answer is yes.

Otherwise someone else might want to grab the banner, find a tent, and take charge :)

So are we any closer to having a final count?

Do we have to do anything in the way of registering beforehand - or is there just a designated area in the park to turn up to?

Also is it in the bit between finance and treasury or is it the park area between the national library and the lake?

It's directly in front of Old Parliament House... that whole area and off to the sides as well.

There's a designated area for Jap crap :P

And yes, I'm pretty sure we have told them we were coming in previous years.

Wow I totally forgot about it until my father called me and asked where I was.

Seems like no one has turned up anyway, bad day for it this year. No one asked for the banner or the tent (yes I have both and they are both club property)

Post up some picks if anyone goes. Otherwise I'll see everyone at the dyno day with hopefully working AFM's.

You must have missed the best one:

I took a couple of other photos as well. I was trying to get some photos of the Aston Martin's but it was crowded and people kept walking infornt of them. By the way, there is another thread with photos taken by Nathan.

serious? the ridiculous idle, cranck evac line, huge 80+mm turbo, 6 point roll cage etc wont give it away before they even bother opening the boot.

PS the guys with john there are firey's

No thats why I put the smile on it, however technically all those things can be enginered and pass EPA (with a lot of work). NOS is always instant fail.

Wasn't sure about the one in light blue :P

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
