[MR 1JZ]

Hahaha funnies...

[JustCallMeOrlando]

Haha, it's a grey area Matty boy. I'm still undecided, but I think Peewee was fairly keen to just start from Adelaide. It does save 3 days which is a good thing.

[Pimpin_1JZ]

Just curious, what sort of spendage did you go through for last years trip so I kind of have something to work towards....

Dude, we're from Perth, ..., that's called a limo over here!?!

[De@No]

So its 09 all u clowns plan to come over here...

god dammit i was hoping for this year!

If the reason this might not go ahead is because of money? i would say cut your trip short and just come straight to nationals...

save plenty of money and then u can get those conversions/bodykits u want in time..

We paid for accommodation at Balladonia, Ceduna and Warrnambool. The rest of the way we bummed accommodation from fellow Toymodders. Budget about $50 a night at these places if in a group.

The trip was around 10000km, so work out your fuel consumption. I was about 14L/100km on the way there, and 9.5l/100km on the way back. Thank my dodgy wideband for that. It cost roughly $1.50 a litre for 98RON on the trip, so ~$100 for the trip there and $750 to get home.

There is no point in driving all that way for a weekend, that's insane!

good point, but maybe u dont need to the amazing race across australia..

how long where u hear for toyotafest? a week?

[JustCallMeOrlando]

Just under a week in Sydney at the end. I wouldn't have done it just for a couple of days though.

[Admiral coFF33]

Omg getting tingles, wanting to drive far distances again YES YES YES!!!

Better have some nice coilovers and good tyres for that great ocean road stint again ..

[JustCallMeOrlando]

Well, my front coilovers are in, and my rears should be done this arvo. General ride comfort is a tad nicer, will see what the rears are like. I don't even know how firm they are atm.

[Admiral coFF33]

what kind u get Nathan ?

[JustCallMeOrlando]

Tein Super Street with EDFC. I'll install the EDFC when I get a chance later on. Need to run wiring everywhere.
