I cant win.............
I just sanded a hole through my freshly repaired and painted front bar. The guy used too much fiberglass and it did not fit properly, hand sanding was inefficient, but looks like the sanding disk on the drill was not such a good idea.........Something from the back might be ok, just tinted my tail lights.... |

What happened James? Sounds like something that can be fixed with cable ties 
All details the same as on first page...
Date: Sunday 16th November
Time: 11:00am Meet / Leave 11:30am
Meet Location: Stamford Hotel (Cnr Stud Rd & Wellington Rd, Rowville). Meet at the lower back corner car park.
Melways - Page 81 H2
Forecast: 20 degrees and partly cloudy (perfect weather for the turbo guys )
Make sure you bring enough fuel to avoid people falling behind to fill up etc. There is a Mobil across from the meet point on Wellington Rd where you can fill up before we leave. |

Should be right with the weather. Damn I dont want to lead through the twisties in my stock suspension + I have never been through the hills in this car yet! Where's James is he still coming? He's usually 2km ahead anyway

I made good use of my time at work earlier today and printed off some basic maps/directions in colour...I only made 14 copies though. I wont post it up on the net for prying eyes, those who come on the day can get a copy. Hopefully it turns out ok I choose the path using google maps  |

I'm no expert...but I prob wouldnt be coming on a cruise through the hills with no front brakes...
Its not only dangerous to you, but you could fly into another soarer. I know from previous cruises there have been a few times where we have all slammed on the brakes...and would hate to see a 5 soarer pile up.
But, i guess as long as you stay away from me...its your choice lol! |

Damn, and I thought a 5 soarer pile up would look awesome on Youtube...haha
lol, only kidding. That wasn't meant to be taken that literally, I have not much left on my front pads. It'll be ok, I'll take it easy. I don't plan on killing anybody.
Glen, my drivers side regulator is cactus so I can't wind my window down either. That may get annoying.
Alex, i'll see you at 10:20am, Bunnings carpark. |

I'll be tagging along in the frankensupra (if that's ok) and bringing along my mate who has a sexy UZZ31. Not sure if he's still in, but another mate will most likely come along in his white UZZ31 also. Awwww yeah. |

I'm going around to his place today to do brake pads and help him with whatever he needs done to his, but if he leads... I will have to go 2nd because that is how we roll... and that means speed So, maybe I will go out front and drive like a nanna? |
