So Sunday 7th March In Cheltenham. In the carpark directly behind "Sainsbury"s petrol station just off the roundabout at Manor Road. Here: http://www.multimap.com/map/browse.cgi?X=393000&Y=224250&width=500&height=300&client=public&gride=&gridn=&srec=0&coordsys=gb&addr1=&addr2=&addr3=&pc=&scale=5000&advanced=&lang=&multimap.x=262&multimap.y=82

Aye, got it sorted so as I can be there again, too. :thumbs:
cHiL dude, make some room in your PM box :smash:
Probably won't be able to make this one :(
Got my lad next weekend and had to swap this weekend to go to the rolling road meet at Salisbury.
Might pop over for 5 mins cos he'd probably like to look at the cars.

Bwahahahahaha. :D :wack:
I reckon the map that cHiL's posted is sufficient (for us locals, anyway) :thumbs:
That map is zoomed right in when you click on it anyway so if you zoom back out you can see the M5 just up the road.. easy innit? (Rhetorical question lol)
I will be there my first SXOC meet, coming from Bromyard, anyone on the way want to meet up for convoy let me know.

If you're going to come through Ledbury, then I can show you the way. :thumbs:
i can head though Ledbury mate, just let me know were and what time to meet.
disco-tom
03-03-2004, 20:39
If you come through Ledbury and wait at the layby on the right just before Parkway on the Gloucester road, I'll meet you there at about half past one - how's that? :)
Great! lOOks like we'll have a few more this time then:D :thumbs:
HI guys,
Although the instructions for the meet are not too bad ;) and the likelihood is that we will all probably be together this time:rolleyes: i won't be able to make it.:( Got my dad for lunch and of course its the start of the F1 circus :D yes!!!.
So see you lot in april ......
Just the car I wanted to see as well:( Ah well April then.....
And i was going to bring all the goodies that are going onto it, in the next 2-3 weeks!:D
So now you'll have to see them - on the car! and hopefully by that time, i'd have got a mapping session in with powerstation!!:D
Unless of course, there's flexibility with the time ..... but for now ... :wave:
Don't know about anybody else but i can do any time after 12? what time are you thinkin of jammers?
I always like looking at nice shiney mod's i can never afford! :rolleyes: :D
Ad.
That sounds cool tom, will see you there then. Looking foreword to in going to be a fun day. Mark:thumbs:
Thanks for your consideration AD :thumbs:
What about 4pm or before 12pm, its just that 2pm interfere's with mine and probably others Sunday Lunch:nod: and i can't miss that :no: LOL:D
James
Like i said i'm easy.....upto everyone else, sounds like cHiL wants 2 tho?
I've only seen ya car from a distance (when you drove past us at the end of the last meet!) wouldn't mind having a butchers!! :D
Ad. :thumbs:
I'm easy, dont worry bout me:thumbs: Better see what Tom thinks and whoever else is coming. Hopefully they will see and we can all agree on a time. Otherwise we'll end up all split over time etc.. 2pm was just the same as last time..
Disco-tom - cheers for pointing this out :thumbs:
Hello all :wave:
I'll make it cos, hey, it's not exactly a long way .. I'll hardly get my engine warm (hmmm might take the long route)!
Sorry guys (and any gals) but I haven't got anything interesting on my car yet. I guess I'll just have to look at all of yours and help me decide what I should get :thumbs:

No problemo, Doobs. :)
Me and PrimeSi will be there from about 2, I suppose (that's if you're still ok with it, Prime?). I'm having sunday lunch myself and that should be squared away nicely by half past one. I'll be off about half past four anyway as I have to get be at my grans for tea and taxi duty for my mum. I don't see why having a sort of 'step' in the timetable will harm things? It'll just mean some will come and some will go. I'm sure there wil be some there staying the course and meeting everyone.
Maybe we could talk about changing the day to a Saturday meet on Sunday? That way we could sidestep the Sunday lunch issue?
Looks like it'll be 2 then Jammers, sorry bud i tried! We can talk about better times etc on sunday.
Ad. :thumbs:
Thanks Ad, :thumbs: thats an interesting idea - disco, do you reckon most peeps will still be around at about 4ish then????:)
I can get dad squared away, then i could pop up!! .. Now there's a thought!!:) :nod: :nod:
disco-tom
04-03-2004, 22:22
Well, I'll defo be there 'til half past four at least. If guys are still turning up, I suppose I could stretch it to five. :thumbs:
I should still be there till 4 ish, depends what the missus is doing really. Don't wanna upset the little lady to much! :rolleyes:
But if def come down i'll stay as long as i can.
Ad.
hehe yeah lets go over the pub at "half time" lol!:wack: :thumbs: :clap:

i should be there for 2 but can't stay til 4. if jammers isn't going to be there when i am, is there anyone else that would give my car a quick run(with me in it of course) and tell me what they think? i'm experiencing some hesitation and am new to the modding world to know if its usual. i've had a quick look at the intercooler pipes and they look ok, would really appreciate some good advice. :notworthy
oh, by the way, this isn't an open invitation to thrash someone elses car!!!:rolleyes:
cheers :thumbs:
and if i don't see you there jammers maybe catch up next time mate.:wave:

If you're still using normal unleaded, this could be the cause. I had significant hesitation with mine when using Tesco's special. :rolleyes:
Cleared right up after a few tanks when I switched to Optimax. :thumbs:
Someone'll be sure to go for a spin with you. :)
shaun3937
05-03-2004, 20:08
i am using optimax and have been for a couple of months now. will discuss more on the day, but having put denzo plugs in tonight there is some improvement, but theres still a problem....i think:annoyed:
Barryjdart
05-03-2004, 20:23
I'll be there from about 2 onwards. In the *****. Leeds postponed to next weekend.:D
I reckon anyone got any bits to sell they should stick 'em in the boot a bring 'em.. well you never know;)
see ya there!:thumbs:
Sorry guys i can confirm i won't be there tomorrow:( . due to the timing.
Fitted my front mounted intercooler today - though!!!:thumbs: and cut the bumper about:eek: hee hee.
Maybe see you next month, but if its gonna be the 4th - touch and go - cos i'm on holiday!!:annoyed: This meet just doesn't suit me?:no: :cry: :furious:
:thumbs:
we could do the next one on a Saturday instead..?..:thumbs:

I've been lazy and not checking.
Looks like most have said they'l be there for about 2. so I'll be turning up around then.
As for the next one being on a Saturday I would probably find the timing better, but I wonder how busy the car park would be.
Unless we would be looking at early evening
I'm sure we will know what we want to do next month by the end of todays meet.
:thumbs:
Alright peps, will be seeing a lot of you around 2 will have to leave about 3:30-4 its a mates birthday and got to get back for a meal. Tom, will see you about 1:30 then. Mark

disco-tom
07-03-2004, 18:23
Ahh right, no worries man. We thought perhaps the car had broken down on the way to Cheltenham. :wack:
The next one will be the first Saturday of April - the 3rd.
shaun3937
07-03-2004, 18:31
saturday 3rd of april my car is booked for a rolling road session at interpro in bristol, 9am so if its the afternoon then i will be there, hopefully with a freshly printed graph!

any of you guys fancy earning £20? i got a greddy profec b boost controller that needs fitting to my s14, although i could probably do it myself i'd rather pay someone some beer money that has done it before. i live in longlevens, gloucester, i can come to you if need be. i've got someone else lined up for the job if there's no takers on here, but would rather an sx owner have a go for me.
Shaun,
is it the new style controller? or second hand? And have you got a boost gauge yet!
James
shaun3937
14-03-2004, 13:28
got the greddy profec b spec II, not got a boost guage as the boost controller will show me the boost level, at least, i haven't got one yet anyway. will see how i get on. got it new from bren.
Does this deffo show the boost???? and accurately?????
JAmes
'Cos if it does and you don't need a gauge i'll have a bash, but you'll have to come to mine and bring me a few (4) bottles of nice red wine :eek: :thumbs: :thumbs:
shaun3937
14-03-2004, 13:46
like i said, i'll see how it goes once its fitted, then maybe i'll get a guage, not knowing too much about modding as you know, i'll see what interpro say about the car when i go for the rolling road session on april 3rd. i'm hoping they'll be able to find my boost leak too, chris seems to think i've definately got a leak and was offering to try to find it together next saturday but i don't think i can make it.
shaun3937
14-03-2004, 13:47
aaah, a man after my own heart! red wine i love too! sounds like a good plan, when you got in mind?
shaun3937
14-03-2004, 13:54
bren recommended the greddy, he said it has a digital boost guage and is very reliable, he's the man that should know i guess:nod:
well I wouldn't mind a look at that too shaun:thumbs: There's an here in Chelt that has one and he uses the inbuilt boost "gauge". Should be very accurate I reckon. When's it gettin fitted?
shaun3937
15-03-2004, 16:30
nothing definate arranged for fitting yet, waiting to hear back from jammers to arrange a time, hopefully this weekend anyway whether he wants to do it or not. get it touch jammers if you're still interested mate.:thumbs:
Hi,
OKay i'm seeing about arranging a time with my missus at the mo ....
However, first off, you need to post for the settings of the rear dip switches?
Next you need to think about where you are going to place the controller and the solenoid valve.
I have the solenoid valve in my engine bay by the air filter - you'll need a bracket at least.
And i have the controller in the old cubby hole bit?
Get the answers to those and then we'll be able to start.
cheers
James
