why do you need a lift if you have your car?

I would offer you a lift but you live too far away :cheers:

I 2nd moving this to Events section, give some newer people a chance to attend cruises etc...unless we just want regulars? Edit my post where you see fit.

I'm there as long as there are drunk women and a photocopier... preferabbly both... ahhh much fun was had at previous chrstmas parties with drunk women n photocopiers...

someone go out get food put in there own money

people chip in whatever they want, last bbq at bmt it ranged from 5 to 10 to 20 moneys so whatever is payed can be given back to the person who bought the meat (unless they wanna donate) and then the rest towards the club either to the forums or in the treasurers pocket

I can bring copious amounts of chicken and chicken products (were talkin marinates, kebabs, chicken meatloaf etc etc) as my cuz works in a chicken shop and he gives em to me for free (my freezer is full of chcken)

OK - shall we get confirmations going on before we open it up to all?

Which day - Sat 20th, or Sun 21st?

I know Sat was originally discussed - but we tend to have more success getting people along on Sundays.

Is there a BBQ at Elwood beach carpark? Obviously parking is easy there - but we need to confirm cooking facilities. Other possible location is the Yarra next to Botanical Gardens. Again, ample parking and good BBQs.

I think - yes - for open invitation. Also - yes - for BYO, but we could easily do a pool of sausages/chicken etc and collect some donations on the day (like the pre MAS one at BMT).

Would be good to get all this confirmed by Thurs of this week so there is ample time for people to arrange themselves to be able to come along.

Sorry guys,

was moving house, no net for a few days

Yes, lets make it a public event. Yes there are BBQ's and plenty of parking at the beach at the spot that I'm thinking of (only problem is there are parking fees - $2/hour, $6 daily max)

I would prefer Saturday but I can swap my shift if Sunday is better for the majority... but frankly as we know theres no way of satisfying every1 so we just have to decide on a day

The BBQ is best left at BYO I think, particularly because we never know exact numbers etc. It should be a great day though.

I will post Melway Refs and a map ASAP.

    • One other thing worth mentioning when I did this job I only jacked up the driver side as I was only doing work there, but from what I understand both wheels should be in the air when removing the sway bar links?
    • Yep it's an r34. Usually people remove struts without removing the front upper control arm (fuca is what i assume this is?) So not sure why mine wouldn't fit. I know on my other car I did a similar job and it wouldn't fit until I removes the ball joint nut even though I didn't remove it prior.   The upper arm doesn't seem to be in the way (the part that's bolted to the chassis. The part that's bolted onto the j arm I'll check that out though.   I was going to compress the spring and put it in with the compressor attached but not sure if it will work  Haven't seen anyone do it.
    • I have a small lip on the boot of the E90 and I've been toying with the idea of trying to mould it in to the boot to remove the gaps. I guess shaving the seams? No idea what the terminology is here.  What I'm wondering is, if it's current double sided taped down, what would I do to more permanently attach it so it makes a good base for the filler? It only has edges so no way to bolt it down unless I add some braces. I've done a lot of fibre glassing in my time so that's nice and easy but I'm not sure what my options are here.  Sorry, this is the best pic I have and I'm 4 million ks from home ATM.  
    • Based on this comment I went googling. A052's in the sizes I want are certainly not cheap, but I couldn't find anything in the V70A anywhere. How much do they run/where do they get sourced from? From what I know (nothing but internet searches and reviews etc) the R888 has pretty much fallen off from anyone's actual use, and the AO52 is the king of "road legal" rubber. Nobody is driving around on their daily for Z221, AO050, DZ03G. At that point, for purely track only tyres - Why not buy actual slicks? Why does nobody actually do that anyway?
    • This an R34? It shouldn't matter though - it should be the same as on any of the others, and by "any of the others" I mean R32, because that is the car that I have had the front end apart on about 50 times this year. Sometimes, it is much easier to get the lower shock eye onto that pin when: a) you have the upper shock nuts backed off a few turns so you can wiggle it a bit more freely. When they are tight the bottom of the strut is much harder to move that _leeeetle_ bit you might need it to to win the fight. b) you have the outer bolt(s) from the FUCA out and so you can move the lower pin around freely too. Then, all you have to do is put the upper arm back on when you've got the rest back together, and this is where jacking under the balljoint can help.
