Bonfire is getting closer
Just thought id chuck up a quick thread to see if I cant get a name or 2 more on the bonfire thread. First weekend in April at my place. This is the biggest event on the calendar and everyone is welcome to come along. Its an overnight stay and for those of you that arent into camping, I can probably fit you in the house somewhere. The list of people is already quite impressive and its shaping up to be the biggest one yet. The number to beat is 20 FTO's. Here is the official thread that covers the finer details:

Oh and if you havent presently got an FTO but are a fan, you are welcome as well.

Re: Bonfire is getting closer
Same noise from back in 2008/ 9?
no-one knows what it is.
And it simply gets louder.
Also the clear coat is starting to disappear, and headlights UV coat from sitting out in the sun all the time.

Re: Bonfire is getting closer
Not sure ive listened. But then, im far from the best mechanic in the club so it probably wont make any difference. Can you describe it?.

Re: Bonfire is getting closer
lol, put it this way, even Bennoz has heard it in person and had no clue.
I have replaced near everything on the front end, had so many mechanics say this and that.
I've given up, it can blow up.
BUT
Driving a distance is a bit of a worry.
The twisties from Goulburn before the turn off you can really hear the noise then.
Have to take them so carefully, and it just ruins the drive.

I think I know what it is.
Seeing if I can get it done before the bonfire.
