Hey guys,

Mainly due to bakes posting about this elsewhere I thought i'd start a thread and see if we get any interest in a meet point for central coast and newcastle people going to the show n shine this sunday.

I'll be on the coast and will be with two others taking cars so figured why not see if all go together so at least some of us know where we are going lol and its kinda cool too the whole cruise thing lol.

So peoples throw ideas around.. i'm not really organising it just posting it so if someone wants take the rains please feel free.

Drew u beat me to it...was about to start a thread!!

Twin servos on the F3 is a good meeting spot, but means going in the oppisate direction for a few members.. maybe the coast ppl can meet behind the BMW dealer.. easy for newcastle ppl to get off at and all can re join the freeway together

From past experience its not a good idea to meet on the side of the freeway... we could meet at Hawskberry river.. there is a bit of parking on the off ramp a, stopped there on the last cruise... seemed to be the best option.. safe and still room ( depending on the number of trucks)

I reckon hawkesbury river off ramp probably the best bet as more room as mentioned.

Does everyone agree? Meeting time at 7:30am.. so everyone has a chance to get there and also plenty of time to find fairfield show grounds and get organised.

Herrooww drewster and mr mick! :P i agree with the drewster from past experiences! side of old pac just opposite (parallel) the truck stop at mooney!! plenty of room for 60 + cars. twin servo's will be choccas and we'd traffic the hell outa the place haha.

      R33 GTR lift points for hoist

      FWIW the depth of the groove in the rubber pad is not super essential, the blocks are rubber and squish a bit. If you are worried an angle grinder will make a deeper groove quick smart

      I mean, if you were to move the jacking points away from the original location, that is, away from the wheels and closer to the centreline of the car, then it will be more likely to overbalance and tip off the supports. Same as we talked about before. I was talking about moving for-aft. If the sill is bent outward or inward, then the car would obviously look unstraight from the outside. Hopefully that hasn't happened either. Again, you can do comparative measurements from the chassis rails to see if there is much deflection.

      Can you elaborate what you mean with your first sentence? I meant move as in the bulge kinda seemed like it got pulled "outward" meaning it got pulled down and to the side with the jacking rail itself, so the load bearing bulge now sits lower than usual and is not level with the sill on the other side of the jack point. Either that or the jacking rail just got pushed in a good bit.

      As well as being risky WRT tipping off anyway. Yeah, I wouldn't expect it to move. Just measure from the rear one to the front one on the good side, then measure that same length on the wrecked side. You will find the notches in the pinchweld, and the jacking pad. Just spray a spot of marker paint or something there.

      but any other area than the bulge you are talking about will just cave in then? The front driver side is pretty bent so I don't know if that will work the way it is now. I can still kinda make out where that bulge is/was but it looks like the position of it also changed due to all the mistreatment? Hard to tell
