Whenz, just remember what I turned up in for the last workshop day........../Grrr
By comparison your cynos is a real rocket-ship.............../pan

Anyway, I'm keen as............and Paekakariki isn't far at all.

Partners would be cool but I'd doubt mine would come along. To quote her ,"all you guys would do is talk about cars all day". My response to that is.........and your point is? Anyway I'll try.

Might have the mighty laptop and the EVOScan software and cable working by then so we can read all the error codes from our ECUs and download the maps and stuff. We could spend all day looking at little coloured squares........weeeeee /pan

Would be interesting to download and compare the Mines fuel maps with those from both pre and facelift ECUs. Now that could be interesting.

Hope you don't mind us all inviting ourselves around to your place J-Mo-15. Most of the guys are generally well behaved and some are even house trained, or so I'm told...............ha ha

Now guys, what date suits everyone............../rally Maybe one day during Wellington Anniversary weekend?

VR4 MAD

Well suggest away. Maybe latter would be better as this could be too short a notice for many. Some may not even see thread before this weekend......./pan

Latter would also give me more time to try the EVOScan software and cable before the meet.

How about Waitangi Day then (Wednesday 6th Feb)? It just a suggestion to get something moving.

Well it can be all casual anyway, if some of us only drop by to say hello and chat for an hour or two. Gives us an excuse for a small cruise anyway. :scholar:

The BBQ isn't important. The company and the cars are what's important.

Lets see what the weathers going to do first and then we'll decide.

That all good. :pimp2:

Morning James. Been ringing around a couple of VR4 guys without Internet and the general consensus is this weekend being a extended break means most seem to have things on or are away.

Sorry to say it doesn't look good now, especially for a morning get together and at best it looks like there was only going to be three others able to make it. Hope this has not put you out too much. The 6th Feb meeting looks much better at the moment.

Hows that with you.?

I'll PM you my cell number latter so we can txt directly for easier contact.

Well the weather forecast (ha ha.....who ever believes them anyway/pan ) says it'll be fine but coolish tomorrow.

As to time and place, not decided yet.

My suggestion would be an early afternoon meeting at say Porirua car park outside Repco. Time.......well about 1.00pm maybe. Drive from there to James' place and back over the Paekakariki hill road...........:speechles Depends on how the petrol lasts I suppose how and where we go.

Also need James to either PM or txt me (or someone) his address otherwise we're f**ked really............./Grrr

Hey guys,

Sorry I couldn't make it. This morning the car started over heating. Looks like a leaking hose, so it shouldn't be too expensive to fix.

Hope the meet went well!

Firstly a big thank you to James for his efforts to make sure this little get together actually happened............well done. /rally

Again, as is usual for events in Wellington, the weather was excellent, fine and sunny etc etc............:iloveyou:

After choosing an initial meeting place that turned out to be right in the middle of a rather large Waitangi Day festival.........Doh /pan and finding car-parks in very short supply, we got on the road to a less crowded venue (BP Mana which I nominate as our default meeting place hence forth), where we eventually managed to get everyone together and prepared to tour off to James (J-Mo-15) place up at Paekakariki.

The small delay caused while the late comers fought their way through the traffic jams was used productively by some to put their car through the BP car wash. Hate to say it, but it didn't make any difference, that bird-**** on the bonnet is well and truly baked on and no commercial car-wash in the world is ever going to get it off.............../pan Sorry.

Here's a couple of picture of the cars and a rather disreputable group of owners..........ha ha

Cars - Left to Right: Silver GLS (who cares), White Legnum (Jeremy), White Mines Legnum (James), Dark Galant (Wynn), Dark Legnum (Matt), Mauve Galant (Dixon), White Legnum (Whenu)


20940 20942
Owner's - Left to Right: James (J-Mo-15), Jeremy (Candee), Matt (MatsonDawson), Whenu (Dickies) and Dixon (Dixon8)
(Note Whenu pointing out the the only speck of dirt ever seen on Dixons car...ha ha /pan )

Lastly, my attempt to get a picture of our little CVR4 convoy on it's way to James place............it was a bit difficult to drive, steer around a corner which was the only time I could take the photo and get the following cars in view, hold the camera in one hand (AND NOT DROP IT OUT THE WINDOW) /pan /Grrr and compose a half decent photo. This wasn't helped by those following NOT KEEPING UP and NOT STAYING CLOSE TOGETHER............/Grrr
Guys, for future reference, a convoy is a group of vehicles closely travelling in a line, not spread along a 2km stretch of road. /pan

20935 20936

Sorry James, you aren't in these understandablely as you were leading our little convoy.

All in all, a great day was had by all I reckon.

Go CVR4 Wellington...............:iloveyou: /rally
