in regards to groups .. when's that going to be decided / organized? Or are we simply going to be assigned to groups as we arrive in Windsor?? Anything I can do to help ? (preferrably something involving lesbians and beer .. but seriously, if there is let me know)

BTW...weather looks good for cruising:

Morning - sydney:

Saturday Chance afternoon shower/thunderstorm.

City: Min: 17 Max: 26

West: Min: 15 Max: 31

Arvo - singleton:

Isolated afternoon showers and thunderstorms. Moderate southwest to southeast winds, turning northeast later in the day.

don't worry about the groups, we've just found that when you have more than 20 or 30 cars together you end up with a mobile traffic jam....100 would be a nightmare so we are just going to have groups leave a couple of minutes apart.

how about that weather forecast huh ? f**king melting here last couple of days and they're predicting showers for saturday. Will have to cancel if it rains ..don't trust these tyres in the wet one bit :devil:

I hope that it pisses down tonight so the water takes the oily residue away.

Otherwise, the weather appears to be more threatening later on in the arvo Denis.

Sure it helps to have good rubber. :P

    • Much less twat-tastic. CF wheels are too garish for civilised use.
    • From there, as the manual says....assembly is the reverse of disassembly, no tricks worth mentioning Much better (for me)
    • In my case, the standard wheel I had was in good condition but the buttons had more wear, so I swapped them across from the original wheel from the car. The plastic rear cover is held on by 4 tabs, and once the wiring is removed you can get access to 2 screws on each side the hold the buttons in From there I just swapped the wiring over. What was interesting is the standard style wheel is 2.0kg but the carbon fibre one is 50% heavier at 2.9kg. It even has a weight inside the wheel at the top to make up for some sort of imbalance in the design. weird
    • Once the airbag is off, to remove the steering wheel.... Undo the 2 plugs into the clock spring, and the horn connector from it's clip. Hit the 19mm nut with a rattle gun (preferably) or if you don't' have one, you probably want an assistant to hold the wheel in place while you use a breaker bar to undo the nut Then, screw the nut back on 3 turns, and pull the wheel sharply towards you. If that doesn't work hit it medium force with a rubber mallet on either side, or possible behind if you can get there. If that all fails (it shouldn't!) you might need a steering wheel puller
    • So, to next task....the carbon fibre steering wheel was either an expensive factory option or a chinesium special. Either way, I don't like either the flat bottom or thick ring style, so it had to go So...to remove the steering wheel.... First, disconnect battery negative and stomp on the brake pedal for a few seconds. Then, remove the small circular covers on each side of the wheel's rear surround to uncover the airbag clips. You need to push something like a flat bladed screw driver through, to push the steel clip inwards and pull the side of the airbag forward. Once you've done the easy side, same on the centre console side. You can see the tab you are shooting for circled in red Then, disconnect the horn spade connector and for the yellow airbag plug you need to get something small under the black locking tab to pop it out, then the connector releases......airbag is off
