The place I was looking at had on-site parking.

Couple that with parking your tow car infront of cars and whatnot, will be safe as houses.

Well i suggest we have an alternate location available too! That way if anything goes wrong or we want to stop earlier we can.... There is no real rush to get there so will be good to keep the options open!

No worries, will do some planning soon! Gotta get a trailer before we plan too far ahead :P

Once we've got it all planned we'll put the hard word on all the NSW members. SAU road train!

Yep! Once the entries are up in a few days and we know who is going then we can get it sorted!

Mad! I'm super keen for nationals. I need to try and have my car kind of half-finished beforehand. Was on track until I got told my car was falling apart and needed some TLC.

It's pissing coolant all over the place and I haven't even hit the track yet!

what day are you heading down mat?

cbf going back to 1st page.

ive got from Wednesday off.

Was thinking of leaving Tuesday but that gets us in a day early, i guess it allows for any hiccups along the way and takes away any time stresses etc...

I was thinking about leaving wednesday morning, drive all day, stop over that night, Half a days drive on the Thursday, gets us there early afternoon.

Yep, i think this might be the better pan now you say that!

Syd -> Mildura is 10 hrs Mildura -> Radelaide is 5hrs.

Can break it up a little with lunch and stuff, won't be too much of a slog. Need walkie talkies for some in-car trivia.

And the return trip I'll sort out with Matt, and post up if anyone else wants to join. I sure as shit ain't driving 15 hours flat after the nats, I'll be dead.

Yeah well remember we have a couple of hours on top of that to get to Shitney.....

And the return trip we are heading a different direction so you will be on your own for that one! :D

If you and Carmen want to meet up with us somewhere in the shire that's on the way we can get a coffee and breakfast, give you guys a quick break and then start the long haul.

I know plenty of big-ass car parks that will accommodate a car trailer and that are close to some food/coffee/fuel.

    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
    • You have a knack for photography my friend. It makes the 86 look like a complete bucket. The 34 went with you to Europe and back. It's special. (we all feel the same about our 'shitboxes' that every bystander seems to absolutely love)
    • It's been quite the ordeal but hey, at least you figured it out.
    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow
