Hey Fellow SAU'ers,
My girlie is originally from Adelaide and wants to move back there in the new year, for certain reasons - which I am supportive of. So looks like I will be moving too.
Having never been to SA before and not knowing a hell of a lot about the place, I thought I'd ask my like minded colleagues some questions that of vital importance to me
I have a highly modified S12 Gazelle that is registered in NSW (not engineered, as I am 41, good driving record etc, and cops don't touch me even when pulled over and inspected etc)
What's involved in transferring rego from NSW to SA ? I recall a thread that 'Steve' started years ago that went on about "regency" and their more than anal attitude to registering modified cars - Is this still the case ?? What am I up for here ??
What's the off street scene like ? Drags, Circuit, Drift etc ? Do you guys have a few events etc ?? What tracks are good ?
How about parts places and workshops ? What sort of selection have you got ?
And in general - what's the car scene like ? I find in NSW the scene is divided into idiots and enthusiasts - I fit into the latter category
Over and above the car stuff:
What's a good suburb to live in ? Most likely I will be working in the CBD - I'm hoping to keep my job at the big T or get a transfer so I'm guessing housing is a little more affordable than Sydney.
And lastly - are there any ex pat NSWelshmen on here that can fill me in on the hot tips you learnt on the differences and similarities between Adelaide and Sydney ??
Thanks heaps
Cheers,
Brendan
