I also have verbal confirmations from steve in his crazy passat wagon. He just got his licence back!!!
And William was keen when I last spoke to him.

I reckon Oli will come in his Mk316v or a Mk3 cabrio.
And Ibeezer will probably come in his cuprasport

Ring or text any other watercoolers that you know guys. Lets keep the momentum up.

[gpk_gti]

I hope our cruise will look something like this!! DROOL

flyered a guy at mascot today.is someone going to post it up on the other aust vw sites?

[blackgti1.8]

want to meet up around 9?

Sure. Where?
There's a truck checking bay between Kingsgove and Beverly Hills on the M5.
That might be a easy place to pull over if you coming from further east...
Kingsgove entrance is handy enough.
There's always the old favourite - the Shell servo on Kingsgrove road...

[gpk_gti]

the truck bay between kingsgrove and beverly hills is good!! around 9?? ill pm my mobile to you.see if anyone else wants to meet up there as well.:cool:

[peedman]

Make it a prerequisite that on the drive to the gong we have our fogs on lol. Thatd be sick! The red beast is getting the final touches of new tyres, springs (from sean), spoilers (from tim) and a good shower (from me) w00t.

Cant wait!@$#!%!%

[DUBING]

since i sold my ride i have no car...:rolleyes: I will see in i can take my dads new quattro for a spin :D its a maybe for me...:)

[syncro]

Make it a prerequisite that on the drive to the gong we have our fogs on lol.

More reasons for the police to book you:???:

[Golf Loon]

I will have stickers galore for any participants of this cruise :D

Ill be there to thats a good meeting spot a cruise within a cruise I like that! lol

[Draco]

And if you're not into KK's, or Maccas you can always go to Harry's Cafe De Wheels across the road before we meet at KK's...

As for the lights, I agree, no fogs.. Either full or nothing at all.. When we had a cruise in Canberra for the German Autofest, I think people thought it was some funeral procession for a Dub Nut j: they even stopped to let the convoy through :D

[deemoE36]

I will have stickers galore for any participants of this cruise :D
reserve white one for me mate :) u know how desperate i need one
u forgot to place my nick in definite list, see u all there...i might be joining the boys at the M5 at 9am...i have to drive back one exit, so i can join in on the right spot
good idea tho, Shell servo on Kingsgrove road sounds even better

as we get closer to the date we can rearrange the initial meeting point.
I was going to ask you Matt if you had stickers!!!:D

[DubSteve]

So are we having no lights on or just the fog lights cause the normal lights arnt that bright anyway well atleast mine anyway.

[gpk_gti]

lights or no lights,I dont think it really matters.the extra lights on vw are not called fog lights ,are they? they are called driving lights.and I think the cops stopped booking people for that years ago.I always drive with my lights on in the day anyway:D .

[BL33SU]

does it matter:? i always drive with lights on.
looks like its gonna be a good cruise:D

[peedman]

Just so long as everyone turns up I was only having a bit of fun. Do we need to bring food or anything for a bbq or we eating out???

[syncro]

Fog lights=Illegal unless fog
Driving Lights=only work with high beam=illegal in traffic
(just don't want to give the police an excuse)

Low beam headlights=no problem

[gpk_gti]

Just so long as everyone turns up I was only having a bit of fun. Do we need to bring food or anything for a bbq or we eating out???
are you always such a trouble maker?j: hehehe .im bringing my 2 little squirts ,so ill pack a picnic lunch.

If you guys know that where we are going will have a bbq area,maybe ill get a few kilos of sausages so we can all have a Official VWWATERCOOLED SAUSAGE SIZZLE????

[Golf Loon]

I`ll be bringing a child too, so buying food or picnic sounds like the GO.
I`m not organizing the sausage sizzle anyway.
Fog lights will attract police attention, I wont be doing that.
I only have white stickers.
Its gonna be massive, see you there.

[gpk_gti]

maybe we could raise some money for the org?send it down to brackie to cover some of the cost of the site? id be happy to donate a couple of kilos of sausages and bread? if not ,it was just a thought.:) maybe save that idea for a more organised day? its up to you more senior members.
ill be away and out of touch for the next week from tomorrow morning.Hopefully find some Vdubbers around nelsons bay to commandere for the cruise.
as for the cops im sure they will be more interested in my DISH!:D

I'm bringing 'junior' again (to provide ballast around right-handersj: ).
Anythings fine with me regards BBQ or what-not.

I'll have another sticker Matt - one for the Dunnydoor (I only drive it out of sheer practically, honest Gov;) ).

[BrianW1]

What are we doing to do for food BrianW1.

[badgolfibad]

Cheers!
John :cool:

[DIDZ]

+1 Here.

MKIV GTI :D

[DubSteve]

This is becoming a really god cruise lets not have any pull outs thats all.

As for the food I think thats a good idea its a cheaper alternative to finding a restaurant or a cafe that may not be able to sit all of us down, but up to use I son't mind.

[ibeezer]

Add me to the list.

[Golf Loon]

u seem like a guy that knows cops movements, they probably follow ur gti where ever u open ur garage door (:)), what is the best time on Monday morning to drive up, keep in mind that i want to evade speed radars on the way up and beat the heat, traffic etc...
ill probably see u there, have fun and drive safely!

Who's familiar with Wollongong??

[Golf Loon]

I reckon we drive from Mt Kiera, the mad road down into Wollongong, parade proudly through the centre and go and park at North Beach.

Lots of Parking, facilities, shops etc. If there is no parking we can continue up the coast a bit further.

[DVR68U]

yeah thats a mad idea , nice bit of road too. and lots of parking at north beach, along with girls ;)
cheers brenton

[Golf Loon]

I would say so I'd be planning to meet there aswell, its like a truck stop.

[william]

il be there bright and early but can we stop there for long periods?

[DubSteve]

il be there bright and early but can we stop there for long periods?

Not sure its a rest area so I guess no more than 30 minutes or so. We would not be there that long anyways. I'll be there just before 9 so I'll be waiting.

[william]

my house is right near there so im in for meeting there

[blackgti1.8]

It's a truck stop, but 30 mins should be ok.
9AM so sure...

[gpk_gti]

wow!!! looks like a BIG turnout!!! Nelsons was great!! not many cops on the way up but alot today coming back. Only saw a red transporter done up on the freeway,looked cool!
Ill be bringing some snags/chops to bbq and obviously some GERMAN beers!lol
Ill be waiting at the truckstop(between kingsgrove and king georges) just before 9

[DubSteve]

Saw the truck stop yesterday its fairly big you can't miss it. There are 2 pulling over areas the first one is the truck stop the second one is a break down lane with a telephone. Go to the first one guys.

Its going to be a fantastic turnout!

[rayray086]

OK, just to clarify: some folks are meeting up at an M5 truck stop at 9am, and then EVERYONE will be meeting up at Liverpool Krispy Kremes at 10am?

what the hell is a "dual port BOV" and why does a car need one? is it something that makes your car sound like a broken air compressor? or is it to let you know that you've decided to change gears and have released the throttle?

Both :)

It is also a replacement for a factory Diverter valve that doesn't reliably hold boost levels when pushed higher than stock. ;)

[Golf Loon]

Keep the momentum going guys, 4 days to go :)

[DubSteve]

Keep the momentum going guys, 4 days to go :)

Will be polishing the car on Saturday needs one anyway.

I think that we should start to make final details if they havn't yet been done.

Food - Who is bringing what?
M5 truck stop - Who is meeting there?

I will also bring my vortex if anyone wants to throw a ball around for fun.

[gpk_gti]

mk3vr6 and anyone else meeting at m5 turckstop want to swap mobile nos? pm me

Maybe another time.

Will be there either way though, been armor-alling my bumpers and stuff with about 5 coats just back and fourth back and fourth, has come up like new they better stay that way for a while :S

[fuzion]

[peedman]

KK at 10am, truckstop is for other peeps meeting on the way. Ill bring some paper plates and **** hows that sound. Might also bring an esky of drinks or sumthing ill see.

[Golf Loon]

I heard 36 in the West. Bring your swimmers, we are going to the beach.

Makes me glad the 16v is not finished, I`ll have to bring the Seat GTI with killer cold AC :)

[DubSteve]

Ill bring some paper plates and **** .

I would not want to be eating poo at the BBQ ;) j:

I'll bring some sausages, and tomato sauce we need tomato sauce!!!:D

[fuzion]

[DIDZ]

As usual, get the car scanned for codes. It's pointless speculating over the internet without at least a DTC readout.

Heh, anyone going to bring a cable and laptop ? :D

Too early in the year:)

[srbsta]

Ok. The old Thead was getting cluttered.
The details are Meet at Krispy Kremes, Liverpool on Sunday 21st January at 10 am. Try and be on time Guys.
People are coming from a long way away, so earlier makes it dificult.
We are driving to Mt Keira Lookout and will go on to the Gong for Lunch.
Can everyone who is definately coming please reply in this thread and make sure we see you there.
Anyone who needs directions or details contact me on 0423 051737
See you there.
I reckon it will be a good turnout and a great day.

mall sounds good to me, central and all know how to get there.

[srbsta]

now can someone organize a time for us 2 meet at the mall lol :?: :?: coz i aint that good with time management :D

[DubSteve]

.we are leaving from there NO LATER THAN 9.10am.


I think thats a good idea, thats the latest we leave to make the rondaivue at KKs.

[gpk_gti]

it should take you 30 min from warringah roughly, so maybe you guys should meet up at 8ish?
from the harbour tunnel(im sure you know how to get there??) head towards the airport on southern cross drive,under the airport tunnel general holmes drive,keep left lane as it joins the m5,go in the m5 tunnel and as you exit the tunnel ,1km on your left!!! BTW what I have just explained is one road!! do not turn off!!

[Glide_GTI]

8ish sounds good, leave by about 8:15 or so...

were going to the truck stop first right?

Might also be an idea to meet in the supercheap / ****smith carpark at the enterence to the mall, im pretty sure it will be open at that time, or somewhere around there.

I hope one of you know where your going because I dont :P

[DubSteve]

Yeap if you go through the m5 tunnel at the airport and then keep going through the m5 as if you were going to Canberra. As soon as you come out of the tunnel there will be a massive truck stop on the left hand side and a few VDUBS waiting for your presence ;)

[Glide_GTI]

ahhhh awesome :)

cant wait, see you all there. I had planned to wash my car that morning because I wont have time tomorrow... but I'll be stuffed at that time :P

So I might quickly do it now...

[Golf Loon]

Matt needs to follow someone so he doesnt get lost :)

We are meeting at Krispy Kremes Liverpool at 10am Sunday and driving SOUTH to Wollongong.

I think the previous record was 15 or so. Would be nice to double it :)

See you there, bring your swimmers, sunscreen and something to drink.

I just got a new camera, bring yours too.

[rayray086]

Should we plan the route to Wollongong when we see each other at Liverpool KK or do yous reckon we can plan one out here? With 25+ cars (heck, I've even lost count now) we're bound to run into some traffic light problems so it might be best to have some kind of route that we can all follow in case one or a group of us get separated.

[Golf Loon]

Are we going from Liverpool to Mt Kiera for Pics and then down to Wollongong. Its a pretty simple route with not too many traffic lights. My main concern is parking for 25 cars at the Gong.

becareful doing it in the heat dude, you'll heat clouds in your paint after your car body goes cold.. check it in the morning! :?

car was washed 2 days ago, that'll do for me.. hopefuly ill be there on time, not entirely sure for the whole wrap or not tho

[peedman]

Fark me im buggered! Car is washed and I just managed to polish it but darkness came on so i cant see any imperfections :confused:

Didnt get time to vacuum the interior or anything so dont look inside!!! :D

[Tim]

Im gonna do my best to get there with whats likely to be the dirtiest most battle scarred car :P

[rayray086]

Finished mine not long ago, looks slightly better without too much bird **** and tree sap. Might try clay for the VW Nationals later down the track!

[blackgti1.8]

Geez, this things gottin' bigger than Ben Hur in the week I've been away!
(sorry, lost net connection early in this week:( )

Yep - I'll be at the truck stop by 9am - you'll hear me from the Kingsgrove on-ramp;)

As for washing the GTI, well lets see what a quick blast down the M5 can do;)
Haven't got organised with food, so I'll looking for takeout...

I'm still in holiday (beach) mode, so another splash around in the surf shouldn't be a problem - may be rather welcome after the cruise with no aircon in that heat:(
See you tomorrow!

[Golf Loon]

Good onya Tim, should be furthest travelled member too :)

See you all tomorrow, try not to be late. Anyone wanting directions, or to make contact on the day, my number is 0423 051737.
