Is the dyno part of the day on if so I will be there. Do I have to contact anybody in advance or just turn up?

Anyone can turn up, but I've only just cancelled the dyno part of the day... if you contact Automotive Plus, or GT Auto Garage you should be able to book in for dyno testing at the normal rate - we didn't have enough numbers to qualify for a discount, and I have an exhaust leak which Auto + are fixing for me once parts become available, after which I'll do a dyno run.

Hope you can make it anyway for the social side, would be good to meet other forumites!

Cheers
Pete

All this time I've been thinking the 24th was Sunday. I'm not even in Brissy Friday/Saturday, so very sorry for the late notice but I won't be able to make it. :oops:

I'll have to switch cars for the detail, but don't worry it won't be a Lincoln Town Car.

I'm trying to sell my S14 and it could do with a detail more than the 5 can, plus it's only one more panel to do. But will be more than willing chase the buffer with microfibre cloths. It's nice and shiny except for the mirrors, which will need a cut, if there is enough paint.

I've also got to do the big degrease on the motor and change out dash bulbs.

I will be there around 9.

Hi again all. I have re-read the thread and I am not sure if the day kicks off at 8:00am, 8:30am, or 9:00am. I know that Auto +open at 9:00am. Can anyone clarify as I have 2 hour drive to get there on the day.

My silver SE will be at Automotive Plus on saturday but unfortunately I won't be there.
Feel free to wash and detail it for me

You could always meet for coffee at the BP Southbound and then travel in convoy to Plus?

Sounds good - I've always liked the S14s, bring it on!

Was great to catch up this morning and special thanks to Kev05 for the pick up and babysitting from my surgery yesterday, so muh appreciated but also so hard not to make me laugh!!

Great job Pete on MINX's SE, looked awesome when you guys finished

Also great to meet Pez and his son and even give them a quick lap around the block in the 86!
