Hey guys,

Heading out in the city tomorrow night, going to stay at my Dad's apartment which is located on top of Melbourne Central Station. We figure its cheaper to drive and park rather than paying for 5x2 (Sat and Sun) adult train tickets.

Just wondering if any of you know some cheap parking near Melb central that we can leave the car in over night. We will be getting there before 5pm and leaving after 11am the next morning. It's an old, insured bombodore so we're not concerned about security or anything.

Cheers.

All weekend or just overnight?

Just over night, Saturday night to be specific.

Doesn't even matter the car park closes as we will be getting there before 5pm on Sat and leaving after 11am on Sunday.

I was thinking Crown is fairly easy to get to, and relatively cheap, even if it is a bit of a walk to Melb central. Is it still a flat rate or per hour?

Yeh, was going to say old royal women's car park as well. I park there everyday for uni (RMIT), its also on Cardigan st, 3 blocks up from the other Alvin suggested . takes 5 mins to walk from there to melb central. Its 5 or 6 bucks overnight

Now i know, is it always full?

Nah, it only gets full from 11:30-1:30 each arvo, but you just wait at the bottom and within a couple of mins a car will leave. its 9 bucks all day for students, I used to park at the one you spoke about, was like 14-16 dollars a day and they give you that crappy little coin and the spots are all tiny.... this one you get a ticket so you can come in at 12am at night and still get your car out...

9$ sound pretty alright.

Car is a bomb, security isnt a concern.

Royal womens one is decent, few other dodgy places around there that i often use for uni, but its a bit risky for an overnight stay

never had a single problem the 7 months i used to park the car there when i was with my ex

sometimes it was friday to sunday it was there

    • 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.
