DIY Day August 9th 2014

Post by -Nighthawk- »

Hi guys,

Since there was enough interest I've decided to put together a DIY day in August. Details are as follows:

Location: Mordialloc, Victoria (will PM you the exact address closer to the date)
It's a shed / factory so we have plenty of room for FTO's inside and out.

Time: 9:30AM - Late afternoon

Date: Saturday, August 9th 2014

Attending:
- Michael (-nighthawk-)
- FTOcrazy273
- droz
- c0n13oX
- Shhtuart
- Supplanter
- Jasonp
- adzski
- Sahin

Let me know if you're attending and I'll add you to the list,

Hope to see you there!

Awesome. This is our biggest turnout in a while, with 6 FTO's attending so far. I just realised it is nearly exactly a year since the last DIY day.

Yeah it's great isn't it Michael? :D we're keeping the FTO alive in Vic! Thanks for organising the event man! We better see 6 FTO's there on the day then or more if more people decide to come! I'm pumped as :) btw just a heads up I'm thinking about bringing my video and making a movie from footage shot throughout the day! What do you think?

Yep, it was practically dead a year ago, with only Stuart and myself (and James occasionally) participating in the club. I'll also check next week if any of the Sky line members are interested in coming along.

Yeah that's fine with me. What kind of stuff are you guys looking to do to your cars?

At least it's semi up and running now! Yeah that'd be alright, the more the merrier! Hmm if I was bringing my white manual I'd have a fair bit to do but seeing as i'm bringing my purple auto I won't have that much to do I'll just help the others :P You doing anything to your skyline?

haha, yeah Ben isn't a huge fan of the Sky lines, hence the word changer.

I'll be changing my oil, installing new pod filter and airbox and possibly spark plugs. The rest I'll be helping out everyone else :)
