Ok, as requested by pat, gonna do a cruise down to sutton rd for texi.

Date: 19/5/12

Meet: cross roads KFC

Time: 5:30pm

Leave: 6pm

Cross roads KFC is pretty central, then hit the highway, and cruise on down.

Please note, NO stupid behavior.

That's why were going to sutton.

Let me know if you're coming.

And we will leave pretty much on the dot.

Hope to see you there, cheers, Luke.

haha thanks Luke, yeah i was going to do one but i had a lunch date to rush to so was leaving it to...well now.

Any chance i can ask one more favour? a GPS address for this KFC so i can just punch it in and forget about it, are we sure we want to time the exit with peak hour? no chance of a lunch or mid afternoon escape so we can get out there in time for dinner? Or are you hankering for some fried chicken as road dinner...

pwned by Shell yet again!

yeah i didnt realise that 'crossroads' was actually a legit name for a place, figured it was just some kind of in house shorthand for somewhere i was clueless about..thanks for doing the legwork for me though :)

See you on the saturday i guess!

sorry guys, i did mean the 18th, realised, but was already back to work(wrote up at lunch).

unfortunately, the wife has to work.

im putting in for an annual leave day, otherwise, i dont get home until 6.....

in regards to peak hour, its more on the tail end of the traffic congestion, so just pray its not too bad.

either way, im quite content to head down with just bthe missus, but also wouldnt mind others cruising with.

just hope its not raining...

Maybe get her to ask her boss nicely if she can leave an hour or 2 early.

I don't know what she does, but would it be possible to start a little early, so she can leave early?

Hope something can be organised.

Looks like I might be the only one leaving early Patty, the way I see it is I'd rather get down there at a reasonable hour, get settled, have a feed and a few bevvies then get to bed at a resonable hour.

I must be getting old :(

yeah i get your logic dave and would definitely be in the same boat (33 now arrrgh) except for the womans problems..typical eh?

she is prevaricating about coming anyway so depending on what goes down before next friday i might see you on the way there after all..

I can guarantee I'll be sitting on the deck, feet up with brews in hand by then haha. I'm going down through the day too, if you want to tag along then cool

More than one brew at a time...excellent. By then I will have been (self imposed) 5 weeks off the grog so VERY thirsty.

what time and from where are you leaving Steveo?

      Original window sticker?

      By Celticsfan03 · Posted

      Hey everyone. Is there a way I can get the original window sticker (maroney label) for my 1995 R33 GTST? I doubt I’ll be able to ever get it but it’s worth a shot to ask

      It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪

      And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil

      Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
