    In anticipation of getting my license back following a positive MRI of my heart, am going to have a tech day at my place, Saturday 30th August. Date change, 6th September!

    This will be the third annual event and hoping to be a bit of a celebration in one. Usually consists of the usual gas bagging, consuming, peaking, drooling, tinkering and modding although has had history of getting so involved duration would exceed 12 hours:eek:

    Out of towners (Cairns to Mackay and Benny_C:p) most welcome. Have quite a lot of gear to do just about anything from ECU diagnostics to engine rebuilds but unless you can do the later in under a day we will refrain from that ;)

    BBQ lunch will be on (I'll supply the BBQ and gas ;)), all participants are encouraged to bring esky and camp chair.

    All interested, post here :zlove:

    That sounds like a great event to celebrate Karl, I reckon you will sail through the MRI. (I guess you have already done the stress testing on the treadmill)
    What's your thoughts on the EGR leak I have?. Would taking the plenum off and replacing the EGR be too much for a day job? I suppose the best thing is that I have already taken it off before and replaced all the rubber hoses so there are no surprises in store in that department.
    I should be able to make it down this time, the weather is perfect and it isn't too hot when working on our cars. :)
    Cheers
    James

    Well in that case, if we get 2 or more from south of Mackay might have to make it a Tech Day/Big Night out:)

    Bugger I'll be in Townsville the weekend before - but might have to return:D:D:D

    On a more serious note KArl I wish you all the best with your tests. I am certain you will pass with flying colours.

    Oh you buggers!!!

    Well if i hadn't already paid in advance for my Skid-pan day at Gold Coast on the day after, I might have just attended this tech day/night/piss-up/mullet-fest.

    Thanks guys, but will have to wait till next time i'm afraid - and by that I mean Black Baz's Chardy Shack Show in October!!!!!!!! COME ONNN!!! :zlove:

    You can't have a tech day AND a cruise on the same day, not enough time. The last Townsville tech day went for 15 hours or something crazy...
