No idea what REunion is so doubt I'd go haha. Easter is possibly bad for me as its the old mans birthday that weekend but I'm sure something could be arranged

Ed. You are part of the social circle but its a pain in the ass to have you around most times because you bitch about people not liking you or inviting you and it puts a downer on everyone's day. I go through a lot of trouble to invite you to everything I attend with other OS boes. I have offered you free rides to ham meets on plenty of occasions (when I actually used to go) I completely understand what it feels like to have such social anxiety as I have it too, but when you don't extend the courtesy of inviting me to shit you hear about that I don't then I just can no longer be fucked tbh. Guessing some shit happened at x time in your life that fucked you up and that sucks. For me it was when I moved to the other side of the world, away from my friends and a grand total of 2 people showed up to my leaving party out of the 50+ people I invited and all said they would come. It sucks but you gotta deal with it differently. Every single post you make about not being part of the is family, or not getting invited, or whatever just works against you. People don't want a negative Nelly around and that's what you portray yourself to be on the interwebs, and doesn't help getting asked to go places etc. I am always ready to help with shit. Me and can were at your house not all that long ago helping you with something and there's not a single person on this forum that can say I have ever turned down a request to help with something, but all those people have asked for help first. Its just frustrating that you can't see that you are in the middle of it all, and that nobody hates you, but you are drifting away and only because you bitch about not being invited to something that 99% of the time either wasn't a thing, or wasn't an OS thing in the first place. And no, I don't comment or like shit in your build threads but that's because I hardly read any build threads on OS and would rather stop in at your house when I'm in the neighbourhood and see it IRL. Sorry for the harsh words, but you need to know what's what. So next time you feel like the world hates you, call me up and you can come to my house and swing a spanner on my car (god knows I don't wanna do it myself some come round whenever) or come play some N64 or something as I like you and consider you a good friend etc. xoxo

I wouldnt have it on caffeine and classics day/week as it draws a reasonable crowd and ace to be able to go to both really
-
When you do that, don't do it near the car. I smashed the bolt out, hit it on an angle and the socket flew across the driveway through an open drivers window and a closed rear passenger window

Cheers mark. Blair hooked me up BIG time! Though there might be a thing or 2 I need in the future...

i PMed Manu, but might as well ask here (as i cant find the CB thread) but you guys all rock 27MHz gear? and all the hand held ones in 27MHz are poos? Is there some 27mhz gear you lot recommend that does the job and doesnt cost a truck load of money? -

Wonder if i can listen to CB stuff on my old uniden police scanner do-dad... -
These guys are on it, but you could also call Sheldon at Rush automotive. He is the man who knows everything about KPs and can even sell you a bolt in solution if you want to do it the easy way... Plus he does a setup that fits under 13s as well I believe, not that you need it to be that small. I had all the SW20 and bluebird parts here at some stage which was pretty good. Easy conversion also

Auckland - Pre Nats Accomodation - WESTFEST '15
Ned replied to KKtrips's topic in Upper North Island Region
If shit turns to crap, i can probably house a person or 2 on a couch/floor for a night or 2. You WILL get roped into helping me finish the teardrop trailer if it's not done though -
Remember guys, pop those bonnets!
-
find out what it is, try find another one and just put it in, or find on the internet when a common upgrade is, and what is required to put said gearbox in and go from there
-
Same here. Its not factory, but copied from a factory one with factory mirrors. Should have some pics in my build thread. Can take more if needed

What i'm saying is, a new trailer gets a 3 year WOF, but that appears to be a 1 time thing. I just got a trailer WOF for a trailer thats 1 year, 10 months old, so got a WOF for 1 year 2 months to take it to the end of the 3 year period. So after that, take the plate off and register it as a new trailer, which costs f-all, and get another 3 year WOF as it's a 'new' trailer and then you dont need to get yearly WOFs after that and save the cost of a couple wof inspections and not having to worry about not passing the wof for a few years. Anyway, i found a ceiling fan that might interest you? http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=841355577

you shall. I just got the remainder of my first 3 years (14 months) wof for the slam trailer. Kinda weird how that works though. It's not a 3 year wof, it's a wof up to 3 years after first registering... weird. Proably cheaper to get new plates every 3 years to keep getting 3 year WOFs and have a stack of plates lying around for no reason.

Auckland CBD Slumlord Speculators Synergy 5/2/15
Ned replied to xsspeed's topic in Upper North Island Region
Scullery? close to mercury and voted best cafe on k road in metro magazine or some shit. Quite a good place. They dont do reservations, but i can make that happen if need be, but they will probably be pretty quiet after lunch -
Still kinda confused how you got rego without a WOF. I thought you need a WOF to get rego?

Need to do some woodworking stuff for the teardrop and could really do with finding someone with some experience and a table saw. Mainly just need to rip up some sheets of ply, and turn some 8x2s into a few 1.5"x1.5" beams. Couple will need to be cut on silly angles, so would be ace to be able to use someone's table saw and have said person there to tell me what I'm doing wrong haha Ned 021 413 423
