I'm working down here at the Historic Site and I've been helping the SES little too.

Situation is starting to look up really.

Roads are in such a condition that we can have escorted convoys to get the tourists out in their own vehicles and supplies in on trucks.

We've had a few boats come in and deliver supplies which has been really helpful, things would be a lot worse if it wasn't for those guys. Sea's aren't very nice at the moment so this has stopped, but the trucks are still coming in.

Power is off and will be for another week or so I reckon. No big deal for me personally though, I'm pretty well setup, got a petrol powered pump and I can charge my phone in my car.

Got lots of supplies here at the SES and a pretty good amount of man power.

If you want to help, cash donations to the salvos or Red cross is the easiest and best way to do it. And another really good way to help is to plan your next holiday down here for next summer and drop heaps of cash back into the local businesses, while they can write a lot of the losses off on insurance, it's still hurting them a lot.

Speaking of hurt, one of the local supermarket owners was just blatantly ripping off the locals, charging like $5 for a paper and $60 for a pack of smokes, triple price on fruit and veg, shit like that, someone went down and touched him up last night though, needless to say; prices are now back to RRP.

Thats about it from down here really!

THIS ...

deserves to be on a new page!!!

So just reiterating...

* Donate through Salvos

* Donate through Red Cross

* Plan your next holiday to Tassie

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
