:confused: not sure exactly. i think they just come to me. yeah, i'm sticking with that story

well depends on how many ppl are interested but i wanted to hold it in an open area. i'm scoping out a few pubs with nice beer gardens. there's one on the north side in chatswood i think called the Oaks which has a huge oak tree and a whole bunch of tables around it. however, such establishments might not allow us to gamble on their premises. i'll ask around anyways.

if you guys have any other suggestions by all means share them.

how about we do a childrens charity? maybe an xmas pressy one or the childrens hospital. any suggestions (just as long as it's childrens:p )?

something like $20 entry (all goes to charity) and a threshold for max winnings. ie anything above $50(eg) goes towards charity kitty and you can't quit once you hit $50. this is just an idea so if you have a better one i'd like to hear it.

Geez, If we had sponsers, we could get them to donate prizes - tshirts, BOVs, Turbo Timers, tools, pods, whatever.

Then do as you say - $50 bucks and your in, this gives each person say 200 skyline dollars to bet - all real $$$ donated to a charity.

Then at end of the night when everyone is pissed, we auction off the prize/donations to the people who have won the skyline bucks.

Only one problem with this plan... we don't have sponsers yet.......

bummer, back to the drawing board.

We can do that - I think my suggestion can wait for Ron.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
