Righto due to starting a new job in August with whack hours my mate is unable to make it now. So if its ok with Karl/people in charge I'd like to offer my +1 spot to anyone thinking they may still like to come but missed out or prehaps funds were putting you off. Dorm room, hot pools and dinner all paid for.... Also means my cars empty now so a co pilot would be cool.

......and everyone likes a help yourself buffet Paid for me and my +1 dinner.

At this stage....Im most likely taking my 720 kingcab so heaps of room on the back for chilly bins, kegs, bikes etc which may help free up some seats in other cars. Although my ute is a legal 5 seater passenger seat is taken and the other seats are uhh cozy at best.....but if your desperate better than walking (only just though haha) Also have access to a 4 bike rack I can whack on the towball if needed too

Is the place on Old Tai Tapu rd?

Sweet deal.......thankyou good sir

Im in Auckland this weekend

Been self employed my customers would stress if I take a week day off so would prefer Saturday morning up Sunday arvo down Although I could always arrive late or leave early if you guys want 2 nights.

The Fish n Chip shop on the main street in Hamner does the best chicken nugget n chips

Whoever does airport pickups needs to buy this http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/car-parts-accessories/other-accessories/auction-584254468.htm

O snap I didn't know we had any spare cortinas out this way

Oh bummer it was good, I only heard about it through Facebook will try and make a thread abit sooner next time.

Whos going to the All Ford Day at Wigram today?

Mate Darfield is were all the cool cats live haha On a serious note though if your working in Darfield mabe cheaper to rent in Darfield, Kirwee, Coalgate or Glentunnel or one of the other small towns we got dotted over the place.

I've been thinking about attacking the rust around the windscreen on my mk4 cortina while its off the road. Would you be interested in traveling out Darfield way and removing the front and rear windscreen and then a few weeks later putting them back in? If so would you have a rough idea of cost?....(about an hours drive out of chch)

The only question I have is above you said open to anything oldschool japanese. Just wondering about other countries I guess?

Awesome

Yea I thought it was odd too. One place told him it could take a week maybe a month. I guess the shops are busy enough they don't need to "muck" with what they are not use to.

I like this idea although I have trouble with my smart phone haha So hopefully oneday I will learn how. My mate rang them, said he had done a couple. Didn't really like megasquirt and wasn't overly interested in doing another. Cheers for the suggestion though.

Thanks for your help My mate spoke to him and yes he will tune megasquirt but he doesn't like it and recommend that he riped it out. Something for anyone thinking of going aftermarket ecu to think about thats for sure.

Hi guys (& gals) A friend of mine has just spent quite abit of coin getting a megasquirt ECU wired up in his skyline. The problem now is he carn't find anyone in Chch who wants to tune it. Hes tried NZ EFI and a few others but everyone seems to shy away from megasquirt. Does anyone know of a place for megasquirt tuning in this neck of the woods? Thanks Will

Yea Im interested

Ahh I see, only problem with cortys they love to rust are you planing on fixing up the mk2 one day? I think I only need that bottom steel bit that goes up under the wood grain as thats what the head unit mounts too. Although I'd be keen on a whole dash if you had it. Then I'll have to find a place to mount speakers as at the moment I just got the centre dash one and don't want to cut holes in my door cards ;(

Hmm ok I might pass then (no doubt I'll regret it lol) thanks for the offer though......ooh its it a mk4 ghia? I would like a mk4 ghia dash if you know of one? As I don't want to cut mine up to fit a stereo. Your mk5 looked good shines up not to bad ay Also looks better with a grill since last time I saw it that was missing. I remember your wagon too me and my mate decided it was "true rat look" rather than rusty haha Out of interest are you a member of that Classic Cortina club that ran the show? I brought a Haynes manual off a guy the other week and he told me about that club too rekoned their was quite a few young fullas in it. Was just wondering if that was true cause it could be a good thing to be apart of but not to keen on sitting round with old guys listening to how much their Lotus's are worth if you know what I mean
