Does anyone know if any car audio type places stay open late on Friday nights?

My head unit has stopped working and since it's fairly new I assume it's just a fuse or a wire or something but I have NFI about stereos. And I have a loooong drive this weekend that is going to kill me without tunes :(

Yeah sure I know a place:

very good audio stuff

Arrggggggghhh! I'm just waiting for you to lure me to your car on sunday to "look at something" and then locking the doors and making me listen to that on repeat!!! well I won't be fooled... maybe..

Stephan, thanks heaps but I'm at work until midnight :(

I might just have to go the ipod and earphones to help with the boredom of the Hume :laugh:

$59 for 5L Shell! :)

I got some today from Repco... was actually the same price so all good!!

Hehe I will have to lure you in another time. Shall be on call for the weekend.

Any nice cafes in Canberra to chill at? If I can't get my oil cooler in time for MDTC then I shall just chill in Canberra until dinner time as I'm there for the weekend anyways. Needs to have good coffee!!

Hmmm dunno where good coffee is. Are you going to be in the city?

I got some today from Repco... was actually the same price so all good!!

I forgot to say..... with NRMA card you get a discount, so it was actually $48!

its not on a roadway, but jsut off a main road which is bunda st. there are cafes everywhere there....but the coffee list there is awesome.

5/6 Garema Place, Canberra ACT 2600 - cafe essen

punch that into google maps and have a look, and as i said thats the main cafe strip in the city, so u can have a look around and see what you want.

Whats the dealio with personalised number plates? I know that 'AB 123' and 'YAB 12C' sequenced number plates are a one off number plate, but what about the non-sequence ones? Is there an annual fee to be made to keep it? I just want one with 3 characters.

Yeah (well, how slim are we talking?).

I got my plates remade in "purple" (more like blue, f**kers) slimline. It appears that only one of them is actually "slim" though.

It was slim enough to fit on the bottom lip of my front bar and not overhang

    • This lady loved her FD for 25 years!  https://www.topspeed.com/80-year-old-woman-donates-fd-rx-7-mazda/ My brother in law. He's nice enough to let me drive it whenever. He'll likely not see this, but I'll try: @r-is-for-fun got any pics?
    • Just something I found searching for more info on Emotion R, apparently the ECR33 Skyline GTS25t was either originally black, or there were two of them, the black one being the original demo car, then building a white one which was part of the 1997-onwards (to at least 2008!) Cockpit Tatebayashi Tokyo Auto Salon booth demo cars. It appears that Emotion R closed down in 2008 and was declared bankrupt in 2010: http://bank-db.com/hasan/208365. Scan of a magazine with the black R33 from 1996: Wayback machine archived page from May, 2000: https://web.archive.org/web/20000529061027/http://www.emotion-r.co.jp/skyline.html Option magazine with a few photos from the Cockpit Tatebayashi booth at the Auto Salon from various years: 2002: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=154&image_id=3507 2003: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=137&image_id=3033 2005: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=116&image_id=1831 In 2008 Cusco website mentions that the Cockpit Tatebayashi ECR33 was displayed at that year's Tokyo Auto Salon: https://www.cusco.co.jp/event/2008/12/post_735.html As of 2021 it appears that the ECR33 demo car ended up being exported to Florida, USA: https://rmcmiami.com/inventory/1996-nissan-skyline-r33-cockpit-tatebayashi-demo-car-big-te06-turbo-endless-brakes-lsd-450hp/ And finally here's Google streetview of the Emorion R garage in 2023 which is amazingly not only still there, but the showroom is still full of various parts in stock and funishings, etc.: https://maps.app.goo.gl/ttyEAZdZLyzermyT9 Apologies for nerding out a bit. I used to love doing this 20 years ago on SAU and got a bit nostalgic for a moment... 😅
    • Try fabricating something like this and install it under the pedals? Not sure if it's legal or not....
    • Even though I have some pretty good (brand) ratchet ringies, I avoid using them to break open tight bolts. A broken ratchet is very annoying.
