nizm0zed Posted September 26, 2012 Posted September 26, 2012 Ha, Im just worried that my paint may not be up to show quality? Last fronteer before completion! marques is a car show for everyone irrespective of quality, taste ect ect. you could bring it along in primer half assembled and it'd be ok. Quote
wildy55 Posted September 26, 2012 Posted September 26, 2012 Hey Planning on coming down to see how you Canberrans roll. Best start saving up for that brekkie tab! Quote
DAZDA Posted September 27, 2012 Author Posted September 27, 2012 I'm going to try and make it too. Quote
sco_aus Posted October 27, 2012 Posted October 27, 2012 marques is a car show for everyone irrespective of quality, taste ect ect. you could bring it along in primer half assembled and it'd be ok. Trust me, this is soooo true, I have done it and still got looks. Scott has offered to shout breakfast and lunch to any non regular who turns up in their zed.... Chris, you are on to something there, then people will stop piking on us . But the sad reality is, I finish night shift that morning and I am not going to be there . Quote
sydney mike Posted November 3, 2012 Posted November 3, 2012 Ok I am 90% sure coming to this one. Do the Sydney Zeds want to meet up and cruise down together? cheers, Mike Quote
pauly_adams Posted November 3, 2012 Posted November 3, 2012 i might make it not too sure yet, but if i do it will be in the 280zx turbo Quote
DAZDA Posted November 5, 2012 Author Posted November 5, 2012 I'm about a 60-70% chance at this stage. For those who are more than likely to attend, someone should work out the approximate number of attendees (AusZcar) and contact the organisers... Quote
wildy55 Posted November 6, 2012 Posted November 6, 2012 Ok I am 90% sure coming to this one. Do the Sydney Zeds want to meet up and cruise down together? cheers, Mike I'm up for the event, though leaving from the airport area on the Friday arvo and catching up with mates before the show. Can do a cruise back into town on the Sunday arvo... Quote
chris240 Posted November 7, 2012 Posted November 7, 2012 I emailed Bruce the organiser , to put auszcar down for 3-4 zeds..there is plenty of space so dont worry. Quote

nizm0zed Posted November 7, 2012 Posted November 7, 2012 im trying, but i dont think mine is going to make it not fucking happy jan. the crank angle sensor is dead, got a replacement express posted to me and still no love. Right before my wedding this weekend too, and im over it. Anyone want to buy some EFI gear? im going back to carbies.... Quote
dat240z Posted November 7, 2012 Posted November 7, 2012 Wedding this weekend? Nice good luck mate..... Quote
chris240 Posted November 8, 2012 Posted November 8, 2012 Thread hijack.... Alan, youve gotta be kidding !!! What do we need to do to get it ready ? Or is it too late :'( Quote
nizm0zed Posted November 8, 2012 Posted November 8, 2012 its too late for the wedding. as for marques, its still a very long shot but not ruled out 100% (95% out) I need to stick the CAS onto an oscilloscope and check to make sure im getting a clean signal out of it. That'll verify whether its the CAS that dead, or the ECU input. If its the ECU, i'll have to send it to haltech and get it fixed, that could be 3 weeks. Quote
chris240 Posted November 9, 2012 Posted November 9, 2012 tell the missus for your honeymoon you'll be camping out at Marques... Quote
Cdr Zero Posted November 11, 2012 Posted November 11, 2012 *A wild Cdr Zero appears* I'll be going too! Quote
chris240 Posted November 12, 2012 Posted November 12, 2012 Your ears must be burning ! We where bitching about you on sunday over a few beers at the club Quote
Cdr Zero Posted November 14, 2012 Posted November 14, 2012 Quick update - I took the car in to the mechanic for a tune, and he's called up to say there's a problem with the rear carby. One minute it's fine and the next it's way way out of tune. He's going to pull it apart tomorrow and see what the go is. Always the way when you're about to go to an event... Quote
Rhino73z Posted November 15, 2012 Posted November 15, 2012 Hi Guys, been a while since I've been on here last (I blame the kids and house)! Are we going to catch up before we head off to John Knight Park? Quote
