We are open to suggestions.

Remember people budgets. We are not looking for flash. A roof, bed, bog and shower is pretty much all we need.

As mentioned before, JVN11L and I will have a look around on the weekend and have a suggestion list up by Monday 04/04.

I'm about 75 percent sure I can make it, gonna be a massive drive, but hopefully I can meet up with another VIC member and cruise together???

Hey Dale, Barb and I are heading up in the Camry but we're leaving to do the drive the week before (starting Friday the 3rd and taking our time), so won't be able to head up with you. We can definitely make part of the return journey back with you though, we reckon we're gunna leave on the Monday unless we're too stuffed, then it'll be Tuesday. So can drive to the border with you then break off as we'll be heading to Bright on the way back.

i was replying to the post that asked for accomodation nearest to show and shine. and coming from out west my idea of a far drive is obviously different to others.

It's not that it's far away in distance, but the fact that it can take 2 hours to do the trip some days.

Maybe look close to the airport, or if you want to VE closerto north lakes try strathpine/bald hills/bracken ridge areas for cheap accommodation as it's close to Gympie rd/Brice highway and you can get anywhere from there. Try also C****ldine/aspley/Chermside/kedron.

Hey Guys and Girls

Just letting you know that we have found some accommodation in windsor which should be nice

Brisbane International Clicky ... We are looking at the Twin Hotel Room Option on Wotif, which is $140 per night (max 2 adults)

WOTIF LINKY

If that is out of your budget, there is a Formule 1 just down the road, about 100 metres.

We are getting our booking in now in-case it goes pear shaped and the long weekend bites us in the ar$e. I would suggest interested parties get booking in early so there is no disappointment.

Once you made a booking, I suggest you post it up so Dazza can update the roll call for the out of towners

Hey Big Pete,

Looks like they closed till July.

Hotel Formule 1 Windsor Brisbane is located within the vicinity of a new tunnel being built by Brisbane City Coucil. Due to noise issues related to the construction of the tunnel, the hotel will be closed until July 2011. For an alternative hotel we alsooffer Formule 1 Brisbane Airport.

the one at the airport is still reasonably close to the CBD... 10mins tops...

failing that, instead of looking northside, perhaps you could look just southside of the CBD around Woolloongabba, annerly, etc...

just a thought...

Okay guys. My apologies for being uber lazy to put aside some time to try and construct this thing, but with that said, I have attempted to make an indent on the itinerary. It is going to have some modification over the coming week or so, but it should be enough to give you a general idea of the way things are heading. So click through to:

PAGE 1

To anyone interstate, if you haven't already sorted out your accommodation, I would highly suggest doing so in the near future because the date is getting rather close. As well, if you have been considering attending, it is not too late to put your name down. In fact, it will never be too late (unless of course it is past the time already), so don't feel shy and join in on the meet.

Edit: Also sifted through the pages and added those to the list that I had forgotten to add.

Thanks for the pink D.

And seriously guys, I have been to three of these now, and they are a LOT of fun... especially when you travel to a different city to do it... IMO it good to stay on for a few extra days if you can and see a bit more of the city. The Brisbane guys will be happy to help there.

+1 to this - I have been looking forward to this for months :D And am also looking forward to checking out Brisbane again, I have not been up there in about 8 years.

First page plans look great, especially Saturday - afternoon show and shine is excellent too, plenty of time to get everything looking spic and span!

I have just applied for another job so am hoping that doesn't throw a spanner in the works holiday wise, fingers crossed it won't :)

BIG D!!

i propose some changes to the plan to add my 2c.

seeing we complained about sydney cruise so much id like to make this really good.

1) we bragged about nebo so much when we where down there, and we are only going to jollys now??? i propose we go the whole slog and go down the other side through the twisties like we always do,no come back the same way. beacue thats what it sounded like in your post.

2) do no recomend tambo, road is so shocking and being on the ong weekend we will get stuck behind a caravan, i prose O'rileys instead, there is a good bush/treetop walk at the top

      Disconnecting winch, lightbar and UHF

      Generally, yes. In the 60s, and earlier, there were cars with positive grounds, so I'm always a bit hesitant to say the negative wire. It is always the one that bolts to the body. Herb

      2011 Land Cruiser 1VD-FTV Engine Won't Start After Overhaul

      Hi everyone, I have a 2011 Land Cruiser VDJ200 with a 1VD-FTV engine. I recently had the engine fully overhauled due to a blown head gasket. However, after the overhaul, the engine is not starting. It only cranks but doesn't fire. I've checked the following DTC codes: Internal memory EEPROM error Low rail pressure The actual rail pressure data shows: 240 bar during cranking 61 bar when ignition is off Based on these findings, I suspect the following potential causes: =Defective Diesel High-Pressure Pump =Leaking Piezoelectric Injectors =Diesel Fuel Bypassing to the DPF Circuit =Faulty Injector Drivers I'm hoping for some expert advice to help diagnose and resolve this problem I'm seeking expert advice on how to troubleshoot and resolve this issue. Any suggestions or guidance would be greatly appreciated.

      Disconnecting winch, lightbar and UHF

      Disconnecting batteries, ALWAYS disconnect the ground wire first. Doing this will also disconnect power, in general. Herb

      Disconnecting winch, lightbar and UHF

      Hey guys, I’m wanting to disconnect my current winch, lightbar and UHF as I have new plans. I’ve installed a winch previously on another car so I get it’s a case of following the cables and disconnecting from the battery, etc but but safety wise, should I start by disconnecting the battery so the cables aren’t live orrrr? And if so how do it go this haha?

      Snapping wheel and axle studs

      Put a set of standard wheels on it and your problem will disappear. It is critical that the hole in the wheel centre is a snug fit on the axle boss (without wheel nuts fitted). If your wheels are sloppy on the axle boss this allows excess force on your wheel studs and they will break, as yours are doing. If you are unsure of what to do, go to a reputable tyre shop and get assistance.

      2zz idle / roughness when accelerating past 3k

      Hey everyone was hoping someone might be able to point me in the right direction with this issue I've been facing for a while now. My Celica's idle will drop down to almost 200rpm when stationery after hitting operating temperature. Pretty much feels like it's about to stall out but never actually does. When taking off from a set of lights it almost feels like it hesitates or is down on power and then all of a sudden it lurches forward and gets a boost in power again. Then again around 1,500-3,000rpm it feels down on power and in what I can only describe in the engine feeling scratchy. Past 3,000 rpm it gets a little boost in power again but still definitely feels down on power compared to what it used to be and still has that roughness. Note lift is also not working at the moment but I have changed the lift bolts, planning on cleaning the VVT and VVTL-i OCV's New engine mounts have been installed I changed the MAF sensor about 4 years ago albeit not OEM. After doing some research my main ideas now would be a New MAF this time OEM, TPS, IACV or Coil Packs (Changed plugs 50,000km ago) Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!! :)
