Moving Over To Wa For A Year

[SAM916]

G'day people very far west,

My employer is sending me to WA to work for a year, more specifically Kalgoorlie (yes i know its somewhat in the middle of no-where). Just wondering what things in the skyline world are like over there? Anyone here from Kalgoorlie? i've been told that there's a fair few nice imports in Kal (due to mining and good money i guess). Looking forward to meeting up with a few fellow enthusiast's, i'll be spending alot of time in perth aswell. Do you have many events such as track days, cruises, social gatherings etc?

I'm also considering taking my car over...work will ship it over for me, but still have a few things i want to consider such as what is the transport like (can you trust those responsible for moving your car?), where i'm saying (is there a lock up garage etc.) and what the general area is like (is it pretty safe or do 'nice' cars go missing)?

Whether I get my car over there or not look forward meeting new people and appreciate any thoughts/recommendations on what to do while over there in regards to the car....and general social stuff aswell

Sam.

you will find Kal full of Trev's with the falcadore and commonwhore v8's

there isn't much of an import scene there really.

I was up there a couple months ago and in 1 week never saw another line

Very very small amount of imports in Kal. To get a decent cruise or race event etc, youll have to make the 5 hr drive to Perth

Oh, and i hope you like red dust with your Skyline

lol I'm nearly half-way between Kal and Perth if you ever want to meet up for a cruize to teh big smoke! 8)

[SAM916]

ah well, at least theres a couple of people there, still deciding whether or not to take the car over. Would be good to meet up with some of you guys though, especially if your doing cruises to see everyone in Perth...

Welcome Sam... the mining boom continues to empty the east coast I see. Make sure you come down for a cruise or a day at the track.

As far as is it safe for a nice ride...i guess Kals a bit like any other town in the bush..there are knucklheads and humans. Transporting? Dont think that would be an issue, just make sure your there when they unload of the truck...put and out of service tag on the steering wheel lol. If its not an enclosed trailer you may want to look at protecting paint.

Pfft to transport, go the drive!!

ps you should join the sauwa club while your here, I hear they like cars

[rev210]

I used to travel there fequently over a 6 year period for work.

Kal has a great pub scene and err.............................. it's got good pubs, lots of them all of them one after the other on the same street.

Warning liver and kidney damage

There are some very nice street machines getting around the town and I believe there are a few imports now too.

The locals are a good bunch generally, you will like it or hate it so hopefully you have a pay rise just in case

Saaaam!

Yes bring your car over... Ive had mine sent to Sydney and back with Toll well Autotrans and nothing has been damaged. It was put in a shipping container on a train. Plus if you bring your car you can come visit me and we can do... car things!

[msnismo]

Sam the answer is simple.......... don't go........... and if you do.... smuggle Kelly back for us.... kthanxbai!

[SAM916]

LOL....i'll just tag it out good call....i'm hoping to come out to some of your events, and if i decide to take the car over i'll prob join the WA club to do some events...

thanks for the ideas and input guys...seems like you have a good group of people over there!

oh ok awesome! How much does it cost roughly? I'd prob get work to send it, and they have an account with Toll, so that could work in well. Would be good to have the car in the sense of mobility and being able to randomly catch up with ppl

You enjoying being back over there? Where in Perth are you....I'll be spending 2week blocks in Perth every 6 weeks or so, so def catch up...at least i'll know one person over there yay
