they're a lot cheaper now than when i looked last year.

just noticed you're from newcastle, it will cost a bit more for you.

my flights last year cost $168.

i got the cheaper ticket price from Tiger Airlines and got Jetstar to price match by 10%.

Good idea, did not consider. Will do for future.

Baggage as well?

We ain't staying in a back packers either.

We aren't either.

If you're inferring because we bought cheap tickets, we are therefore staying backpackers... :domokun:

We will be walking there, thats all i know.

On the note of all this, two weeks until our group will be at the airport boarding!

when i looked last year the airfares where like $800 for two.......

from Syd to Melb, or Newy to melb?

If Syd to melb, theyre ripping you a new hole.

who did you get the quote through?

they charge the baggage fees off competitiors price theyre beating.

You dont stay in Monaco, you stay in Nice and you catch the train in everyday. Get on early

Depending on how much fun you want to have, the hostels there are great, because everybody else is doing the same thing as you. Even all the cute girls

You'll pass the place i want to retire in on your train journey. Make sure you stop there and walk around, its utterly magnificent

You buy a different grandstand ticket for every day. Here your one ticket get you the same seat for four days, over there, you can buy a seat in a completely different end of the track. Like i did. I can PM you the best spots with TV's, because the track maps on the internet are bullshit.

Friday is an open day, i massively recommend walking the track, its all completely open to the public. The pits, the harbour with the boats, everything. The photos you get are unbelievable, the team operate 2m in front of you. I even met Jackie Stewart!

Don’t worry about having to bring food, there’s heaps there and its all cheap. The baguettes are 4 euro and its like they were prepared by restaurants, not Indians on uni holidays. No need to pack anything but sunnies, hat and maybe something to read.

... theres so much more, but im supposed to be working, so perhaps later

Holy shit. Awesome place to retire!

Thanks for that info!

It is pretty rad isnt it

Theres a shit load more info about seating and moving around too

qantas? big spender!

$317 return for Qantas for us. Because Air Aus screwed us over. Hopefully get money back for that though.

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
