ok... the Australian dollar is at 93.4 US cents today, which means I'll get about 91c to the dollar after the bank takes their cut... our flights cost us au$1520 each... so around us$1380... I've allowed us$900 for fuel, but should probably up that a little (will depend on fuel prices and...

Time for a bit more news.... I have set up a blog so that people can keep track of our planning and progress... It's located at http://thebonnevillerun.blogspot.com The 2 places that will get the most updates during the trip are going to be that blog and a photo gallery on LandBarge.com...

just looking through your website at the moment ReQuieM.. there's some good sh*t on there hey... :)

Less than 4 months to go now until we're back in California... :)

boost cut from memory on a stock 1jz ecu is only about 12 - 14 psi...

My thoughts: You hit boost cut. To semi-confirm: What exhaust set up have you got? Do you have a boost gauge fitted? If so, what boost did it make just before the cut? It sounds _exactly_ how the 1JZ boost cut feels...

Took a few shots of one of our members cars at last nights SupraWA club meeting, then went and had pizza... The rest of the shots are here Notes for the camera junkies: -Camera was my Canon EOS 1D Mk III, lens was Canon 70-200 f/2.8L (non-IS). -ISO 200, with the setting sun at my back. -Minimal...

OK... time for another update as more things start falling in to place... We've just booked our rooms at The Red Garter in West Wendover, we have 2 rooms and some mates of ours who are leaving Perth within a day or 2 of us (one is looking like he's going to be with us to Auckland, spend the day...

Last year was the first real holiday I've taken since I was at school... Other than an extra long weekend here and there, we haven't really used much holidays... Unfortunately, being made redundant twice in a couple of years meant I lost any leave I had accumulated anyway, and this trip will use...

OK.... with a few dates coming up for some events around California in August, we've changed things about a little... We're now going straight down the coast to LA, instead of going to Yosemite on the way to LA, so that we can make it to the Wally Parks NHRA Museum for the cruise in there on the...

Just curious as to whether any SM members have been to, or have plans to go to, Bonneville - either for SpeedWeek, or a similar event? We're going to be there for SpeedWeek in August this year, but only spectating, as it's a bit of a hike just to get there, bringing a race car would add at...

when I get mine sorted, i'll give it a blast... if all goes to plan, i'll need an ANDRA license after a couple of passes... it'll never be as good for DYO racing as the ambo, but it should also be at least 6 seconds quicker :)

Looks like I've been neglecting this thread a little... Here's a new'ish one from the start of the year...

Lots and lots of sheep.... But seriously, I've only spent a couple of hours out and about in NZ... And found the place to be well worth the effort.... Get a hire car and go for a drive out of Auckland, we didn't get to, as we didn't have the time, but even staying within Auckland you can see...

here's one suggestion: http://www.dutyfreehosting.com/?lang=en&action=webhosting anyone have any experience with these guys?

cool :) the site is currently hosted at a mates company, and after speaking to them a bit more this arvo, they have no issue with the disk space, or server load, only with the bandwidth used... i'm currently looking into a VPS host for the photos and leaving the rest of the site where it is...

Those of you with fairly large web sites, who do you go to for your hosting solutions? I'm putting through about 70 gig of traffic some months, and it's getting to the point where I'm going to need to find another host....

We've now booked our tickets, leaving Perth (Australia) in the evening of the 31st of July, we spend 12 hours in Auckland the next day, and after crossing the international date line, we land in San Francisco on the 1st of August.... We fly out of SF about 9ppm on the 4th of September, and spend...

Thats my supra, but it's here in Australia... the car in California is a 1970 Cadillac... (pre-smog - yay!) Nice big old girl, and actually rather efficient, considering it's a 472 cube motor... :)

It's looking a lot like we're flying out of Perth on the 31st of July, landing in San Francisco on the 1st of August, spending a couple of days in and around San Jose recovering, then heading out on the road trip... First stop is Yosemite, where we'll be spending a night, then heading down to...
