Looking forward to this day. Holidays and work have stopped me attending any meetings this year so this'll be the first outing with the TC. Got a few people coming out to watch proceedings and eat all the snags so put the prices up And bring the earmuffs for the roar of the oil consuming TC.

Oil is cheaper than petrol now anyway.

Ok guys,are there any questions that you would like to discuss at the meeting on Wednesday night? Any thing in particular that you would like to know about a dyno or how it works? Or anything else even mildly related? We will be having a brief chat so it will be a good opportunity to cover any questions

how bout people from different areas (i'll use liverpool as an example), meet up and cruise there together? say break up the surrounding areas of Girraween into 4 or so quarters. for instance, a group could meet up at Harry's at 9.30-10.00 then head out on the cumberland highway to be at uniGroup by 11. just a thought.

Hey guys.

Could i please get a name & number for unigroup engineering for this Saturday.

I'm sorry to do this but i will have to pull out of the dyno day, i will be there, well i hope to, but i have some troubles with the car.
I dont mind paying cause this is late notice.

I took the car out to get a tune up for Saturday & got told i had low compression in the 1st valve.

Could it be burnt valves or compression rings or head gasket???
I was hoping someone might be able to take a look on Saturday.
The mechanic was thinking of a rebuild but i was hoping it might be something a little easier.
I'm not very knowledgeable with all this so if i could ask anyone a lot of questions this Saturday that would be great.

Cheers
Colin

I'll throw my compression tester in my kit and we can look at it for you. There's plenty of downtime and people to help, I'm sure.

The dyno is the best place to be with your trouble - we will sort it.
