How are you getting there? See what the other 3 guys say but we might be able to fit you in the car, it is a 'family' car lol. The place I'm eyeing off for accommodation sleeps 5, but I need to check where everyone else is staying first.

edit: are most people (as in outside of SA) staying in Shepparton or Benalla?

Driving there :)

+1 SLED, looks good.

I just booked a 2 bedroom cabin for myself, Fliggy, Aberax and Matty Sherlock at Goulburn Valley Motor Village, which is on the same road as BIG4.

Just had a look at that one Dion.......the one I pointed out has a pool and looks much nicer.......was the Goulburn Valley Village much cheaper than the one below maybe?

BIG4 Shepparton Parklands

I'm tempted to bring my big van down for this event

It's 6 and a pair of 3's really.

Me, Vu, Abe, Matt Sherlock and Norman have secured a 'superior town cabin' and its only costing us $99.60 for all 3 nights each. That includes all linen, unlike the 'standard family cabin' at BIG4 that only has linen for 2 people, and you cant book the 'luxury villas' at BIG4 for any less than 4 nights :/

Also, those who have not been to Shepparton before, bring some spare coin to splash at the SPC factory outlet. I can remember several times loading up the car from there, nobody goes hungry on the drive home haha.... and for a couple of weeks.

My auntie/uncle/nanna/cousin (aka Matt Sherlocks mate - small world) live over there, so I'm quite familiar with the region.

BIG4 Shepparton Parklands

I've just been online with this particular park and I'm leaning towards this park for good reasons.

1) facilities (including pool) kill the other park

2) the most you'll pay for a top of the line Luxury Villa (sleeps 6) is $35 per night if you share.......they also have Family, Deluxe & Standard Cabins that are cheaper again.

3) 3 Star Park vs 4 Star Park

3) much nicer BBQ areas

4) Resort style park vs Bush style park

I'll get a map of this park and post it in this thread

PS: Dion, not sure if you've paid a deposit on at the Goulburn Park yet......or if you even want to consider changing to this one........leave it up to you guys either way

I'm happy either way dion, but would be good to be staying where a majority of others are

Just noticed what you said about "4 nights minimum stay" Dion.

That is def the case if you're booking online............I'll ring them tomorrow and see if it's negotiable

I think they charged me a 1 night deposit (though this isnt reflected in my netbank), but as its more than 30 days from the date it can be refunded.

If the other place is negotiable, I will change it, I just wanted to put my name on something ASAP in case it all filled up.

We have to sing "We're going to Bonney Doon" in the car haha

Haha yeah. I've been there more times than I can remember, but I've never seen the movie. Ive even been to the house it was filmed at. Shane's parents place is on the same lake too.

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
