So here is the "everything" list to suit 5:
* Nappies
* Wipes
* Scented bags (for poo nappies)
* Spare undies/socks/shirts/shorts/jumpers
* Bib
* WATER WATER WATER!
* Snacks (as above in 4), incl. Cheese sticks, Tiny Teddy biscuits, banana, sultanas, dried strawberries and mango
* Books and Toys (if they get a bit bored in the car)
* Kiddies music CDs
* Gum Boots
* Towels
* Picnic Blanket
* Raincoats
* Teddies/Safety blankets (currently in use, will be bundled up in the morning)
* Soothing medicines
* Camera (Even charged the battery up)
* Window socks (to provide some shade and stop nasty UV rays)
I think that's it. Notice I haven't had a chance to fit in "wash my Honda" in there ha! Or pack anything for me yet!
Time to set the alarm and hit the sack!
Your a good man Troy! :D
Should be alot of fun boys, looking forward to meeting you all!
Hey guys, hope you like the pics, let me know what you think.

Was heaps of fun today, I'll add mine up soon.
I didn't get many but these are the best I got.
Cheers

Nice Great shots guys:thumbsup:
Some cool pics!! LOL @ Hayter st :D
Mate check out that cute kid! Oh yeah and the Honda behind him too. :thumbsup:
Was heaps of fun guys, I thought the Accord ran pretty well overall for a stock car. Just gotta find out for sure if anything is leaking (i.e. oil or something on the exhaust episode).
Excellent Shots,WOW!
They look cool as,nice one!!
Had a great time,I thought the accord went well too,great cars,great times,cheers!!
The boys had a great time too Brett, Reuben was talking constantly about the "sore splinter" he got on his finger to mum like he was proud as. And Caleb was reading a book in the afternoon (well looking at the pictures) and there was a picture of a dog. So he was pointing to the dog and barking (cause that's what dogs do) and then he got all serious and started holding his shorts where the puppy had been chewing on his shorts, he remembered! Boys! Love 'em.
What was the puppy's name? I asked Reuben if he knew and he said no. Then he goes "I know, I think we'll call it Hinnie!" Don't know where that came from but that's what we're calling it anyway. :thumbsup:
I think of it like this. If I didn't have 50kg of boys/seats/"the list", and had stripped my interior a bit to reduce weight, and had sporty suspension on there. Then instead of being "just" behind you all I would have been "just" ahead of you all. :p
hahaha,just ahead aye... :)
That's great Troy,come ova anytime mate!
The pup's name is Woody hehe
He's pretty cute,especially when he's trying to get up the 2 big steps into the house,he worked it out yesterday but,he stretches out as far as he can on the one above then wiggles/pulls his body up,so cute!
thanks heaps Brett for letting us come round and showing us your place! It's beautiful out that!! And mate, your car rips! One very quick EK sedan brother!
Troy your car went extremely well! I doubt that exhaust issue is anything big, still think it was just a plastic wrapper or something you picked up on the way. But the B series is a force to be reckoned with, and you'll find I never really got to stretch the legs on mine ;)
So good to meet all of you!
hahaha da B!!
Thanks so much,that's really nice to hear,my car is going the best it's gone,all that's needed is a tune and I might be up (near) there with the B!
:)
Easily! It's a wonderful sounding car too I must add :) infact nothing beats the sound of 5 Hondas buzzing past the trees :D
B series is not match for drifting d's
Haha Tim had a moment at one point, back stepped out looked awesome :D
I hope you're right but all the same I'll get under there and give it a full degrease, then after a few days I'll pop in to my dad's and see what we can find (any leaks etc) just to be sure.Quote:

Shame I didn't get Woody in there, he was a little champ! Lola's such a great dog, boys were a bit unsure but she was just beautiful with them. Such a great temperament for young kids. :thumbsup:
Tim dare I ask how much $$$ the Willwood pads are worth? :eek:
EDIT: Whoops it's beeza,I'm on Timmy's account lol (at Timmy's house atm :) )
Isn't she aye :) She posseses the true spirit!
Woody has a great personality too,he's already building up accross the chest.He's just 5 weeks old.
I'll get a pic of him :)
Thanks Troy!!

Chemicals then lay paving,somebody shoot me!!
Haha Brett, you never know when your going to have to lay those pavers!! :P
You can also just spray chemicals later, it doesn't really matter. Or you don't even need chemicals, they are bad for the environment.

Mistle toe,Damn look at that paracidic thang! Full alien like!
Can U see it,there's the branch,only a single branch that was from the original tree,the rest is mistle toe,more than likely it was spread by a bird who has put the seed or small plant on there and it has paracitised the tree and is living paracidically off that tree!

Woody!!! Love that little guy :D
Never seen that Nulon street and track.
Where'd u get it and any good? Why that viscosity? I use Nulon fully Synth 10w40, been using it since I got the Em1.
haha yeah,he's so cool aye.Quote:

Tai is that no good,ya got me worried? :)
JDM Dog ftw :P
Thats very thick beez, the only reason Id be using that is if your motor is already burning a thinner viscosity. A preventative measure if you will.

What you are using is way too thick.
I use Castrol Edge 5-30 for my civic as its only a D series, but for my Type R I use Castrol Edge 0-40
You're engine will be running more sluggish also with that thickness.

Damn,it feels sooo thin in the bottle,like real easy to swish around in the bottle...
Thanks guys!!
Thanks Tai,gotcha!! :)
btw what oil are U using,I had been using motul 5W-40 8100 x-cess for 3 yrs...but I wanted to try NULON,just didn't know which one,cheers mate!
That's what I meant by "why the viscosity?"Quote:

Thanks tai,great link!
I just some 10W-40 Nulon,6L for $66.
I need to make myself a bit clearer too...When i first put the oil in I filled it 1cm below the full mark and felt good,I topped it upto the full mark and it didn't feel as good BUT up high the car is more reponsive.I won't change it just yet! Maybe a case of getting the levels right (but doubt it!) :)
Here's a lil' vid of the oil,tell me what U think please!! :)

Woody is fully deaf too.He was either born like it or it was that MASSIVE tick that was on him that done it!
http://i774.photobucket.com/albums/y...4/100_1129.jpg
I swapped in the 10-40.Car runs much better!
U know when the FITV fouls up,the car surges? It was doing that with the thicker oil.
Thanks again!
I did always wanna run some oil through it just for 500 k's or so to clean it out,swapped the filter too! :)
yeah if you havent flushed the oil properly, do an early oil change at around 3000-4000kms.
IT is not recommended to run mixed engine oil ratings.
Also a good oil filter is reocmmended each change, OEM has never had any probs.
Cheers Tai,car is much better! :)
