Hey Sydney Girls and Guys,

I have been talking to a mate of mine and we may be able to arrange a shoot and/or article for Hot4's magazine.

Can I find out who is interested and send me a pic of your car.

I have spoken to GolfLoon and I am also planning to enter some of our cars at Auto Salon so we can get the name VWWATERCOOLED out there.

Please only send genuine interest. There is a cost to auto salon for clubs but i will let everyone know down the line further.:D

I've thought about this before! Autosalon is basically the only modified car show around the nation, so this could be a chance to put our foot in the door.

I wouldn't find to be honest, but then again I don't feel like getting asked every 2 mins what bloody car is that.

nah, tape a stack of them together to a phone book thickness then beat the owner of the current feature car as to leave no bruises.

Haha.

I just think it's a good way to get the scene more publicised. Get the VAG scene out there.

May be sounding a bit pretentious but is it the right scene to be showing it to? It's personally not my cup of tea and i don't think VW fit into that scene.

Just my two cents.

DubSteve
10-08-2007, 06:29 PM
But thats the thing there is no VW scene in Australia got to fit in Somewhere:(

so what we have here isn't a scene? sure its no US or UK VW scene but we have a strong community building up here and it doesnt need to be ruined by hot fours,shiney big wheels a fulisik number plates.

just get a hot chik holding vwwatercooled.org.au sign in the magazines and we'll have few thousand extra members and be well known :D :D :???:

No one says that we have to have that, it would just be nice to be more noticed interms of the modifying scene!

well I cant say i'm a fan of all that scene either, BUT! There is an awfull lot of dubs out there, be it modified of stock that have no idea of our lil ever-growing scene on here! As far as advertising for the VW community, I think it's a great idea!

i dont know the age group of people on here, but some people need to chillax a bit. i hate chrome but u know if someone is going to whack on some chromies,system, airbrush paint job let it be and let them show it off at the autosalon. There isnt enough dubs @ autosalon, if any. so a logical thing to do is enter and show our cars off, airbrushed or not.

thats true, but would be also a case of a lot of people who have dubs dont really want to be in that 'modified OMG!' scene too i guess is why we dont see that many :P lol

If we get a nice collection of clean euro dubs together on here i'd like to see a group in auto salon, just to bring us up a bit.

true true, but it'd be nice to get the VW badge out there and have the euro styles recognised in the modifying scene instead of being seen as the retired persons choice :rolleyes: ;)

Okay, was not expecting that response.

Autosalon does have some VW's however we need to get our name out there and make our own scene.

I have spoken to HOT's and they are doing a Euro Special that's why they thought we would be good to get it off the floor.

I get back on mid Sep so the shoot will be after that. Start cleaning your cars now.
This is a great opotunaty to bring more publication to the VW spotlight.

Get some balls and muster you cars best look and lets just go. I will set the back drop with the help of the "big boys".

"Who said luxury can not beat performance!"

Let's make our stand.:D

Thanx Steve & Ray:D

Check out the form http://www.autosalon.org/cms/pdfs/19.pdf and www.autosalon.com.au while i'm away. Club entry is $100 for two days and you need a minimum of 5 cars to enter as a club.

Steve, we will have to get the competitors t-shirts and a banner with the club name.

I have spoken to my girl friends who are the 3rd World Aerobic Champions and they will come and do funk routines at the font of our display to get attention. Not to mention i will rally up some models too.

I think we should get the Audi A3 and Golf (VW18LT) the guys from last weekend's police blitz to enter as wellj:

Well guys i'm off.

Love you all.

Yeah it is cheap sounds good, we have the potential to make a stance against all other cars but we don't :?

If we can get like 10 cars then you know we can be serious!

I'd be up for it - I've just bought myself some 18"s but I'd have to sort my exhaust and suspension before I took it anywhere :D

Anyone want to lend me some lowered springs for it? Not sure if I could organise coilovers I want on such sort notice j:

But my car is more about going quick than looking pretty :D

BL33SU
14-08-2007, 10:32 AM
sov did u buy those TT rims? lol
just buy some springs and make the ass touch d ground :D

14-08-2007, 10:45 AM
Yah - Some dude on ozAudi was selling some, I have to pick them up this week.

lol @ springs - If I'm going to do it I want to do it properly with some adjustable coilovers, springs would just be temporary :)


PS. I like the idea of models and aerobatics, would be worth getting my car up to shape just for that ;)

Sorry to clarify it is $100 per car but there needs to be a minimum of 5 cars to enter as a club with the club price. Single cars get charged more.

The final battle is in the first week of December or we can give ourselves more time and make a huge deal and go April-May next year. Either way we need to organise ourselves.

Things to consider;
theme, shirts, colors, which cars, entertainment, any giveaways iw watercooled stickers.

I like the way this is going:) If we could get a little area and put a few cars in there dress the area up heaps good.

Also in house lazer lights, fireworks and models spitting out fire:D

I think with a little positoning and a banner or two we would be fine:)
