    I'm almost a definite (other than the unforeseen). I might not be that technically useful, but it'll be a nice drive and a good chance for a catch up!

    Too many cooks?

    Seems like there are alot of tech savy ppl coming, maybe a case of too many cooks spoil the broth? Sounds like a few ppl fixing a zed and alot standing around (and hopefully getting pissed)

    There are TWO Zeds to attend to(and all the other stuff you mentioned).:p:zlove::br:

    Sounds good to me man. I wasn't too much help last time as you could see. Could probably half attempt a plenum pull but due to the fact that there will be so many Z guru's there, I don't think i'll be touching those Z's...

    OK Ladies and Gents

    Dean (DinoZ) and his wife Sandy have dropped through to see Caroline, to see what is needed.

    If you are attending,

    • Bring your own tools and fold up chair
    • in case the weather is bad, anyone that has a port-a-shade (gazebo type thing), please bring one if you have any. There won't be any shade available out the front of Caroline's place.
    • Caroline will cater for the event with regard to food and basic drinks (as per tech day norm). Please supply your own alcohol. If you're driving home, drink responsibly!
      Might be an idea to bring some additional cold water.
    • A compressor, jackstands, ramps, air tools will be available on site.
    • Thoughts at this stage are that they will keep the silver zed but sell the blue auto (both still registered).
    • The third zed gone (think its a May '91 model, the one Barry brought out from England and has never been complianced).
    • The Blue zed needs an oil change, wash and polish, connecting up of the stereo, reinstall the centre console trim (all parts appear to be there). I started the car - seems to run fine, but didn't take for a drive. The engine bay can do with a clean/tidy up and to remove oxidising off the plenum.
    • The Silver zed has a crook battery (I will send Peter the model number to get one in time for the tech day). Main work needed is to remove the damaged rear spoiler and assess if there is any rust in the rear hatch. There is a complete spare (brazilian) rear hatch that we may need to swap onto the car depending what we find. Suggest we also replace the brake fluid and do an oil change. Until we can start the car and take it for a run I'm not sure what else will be needed.
    • Other than that there looks to be plenty of people power to work on other cars that may need attention.

    See you all there :)
     
  15. Mitch

    Mitch Has one gear: GO

    I'll bring some basic tools and electronics related gear (solder, heat shrink, connectors etc). Doesn't really seem to be too much 'hard' work on the mechanicals other than the oil change?

    So what time is this getting started?

    say 9am at the earliest, beyond that, just whenever you get there.

    Most people will be driving from Sydney, so earlier than 9 probably isn't practical.

    Let us know what time you're going to rock up, Mitch. Just so I know someone there. I think the others might bite :p

    Got a few minor things that need to be looked at with my Z. Nothing too major though. Most of it will just be advice with what I should do, as I won't have the parts/supplies needed to fix things on the day.

    Not expecting to get many or all of the things done, as I know this is focused on Cuddlybear's two Zeds. That and i'm sure others would like a few things done.

    - Find the accessorie wire for head unit (Had Nemz install the head unit and he couldn't locate it in the short time frame that he had)
    - Look to see what could be done/possibly adjust the doors so they sit a bit more flush?
    - Just had a 2k spec front bumper fitted but it isn't exactly flush. Not sure wether it's something that can be easily fixed or if it's a fender problem like they suggested.
    - Targa leak somewhere. Thinking it could possibly be due to the doors not sitting 100% flush? Will let someone a bit more educated have a look at it though.
    - Adjust the fuel pressure regulator to sit back into the screw holes provided, I might get that done within the next few days though.
    - Possibly have a look at the side skirts to see if they've been fitted properly? Don't look the best to me.

    Only thing that's bothering me about that list right now is the accessorie wire as it's a royal pain in the ass to have to disconnect it everytime I want to use it. The others would be a bonus if they were to be attended to on the day.
