Swansea area meet

[VIDAL BABBOON]

As mentioned in the spoted post.

There are quite a few 200's poping up in and around the Swansea area now, so if you would like to meet up or get something organised localy have your say here.


When and where ?

Nick

[Dai]

Could do. There's a fair few on here from the area.:nod:

[GINNO]

Anyone gonna come up with a day/date/time/venue???

I can make it anytime its set.

[Geraint Thomas]

Loads more around Swansea since I got mine.

I'll try to make it to this one. Haven't had the time to get to a Cardiff meet yet.:rolleyes:

[Atomicboy]

Fancy going for a spin - then park up somewhere for food (or whatever) and yap about 200s. I know the Ferrari boys do a similar thing then head for the King Arthur in Reynoldston coz they can park and sit outside by their cars.

I'd prefer something like that to sitting in a car park. Anyone suggest a similar venue around Swansea/Gower/Llanelli or the wider area?

Date? My next week end that ain't occupied by rugby or work-related stuff is April 10th & 11th. Although sunday morning 28th is a possibility.

[VIDAL BABBOON]

Yea going for a spin somewhere and having a bite to eat sound's like a plan.

We talking about gower somewhere ?

If so what about the Gower inn not far away from upper Killay !

Nice big carpark there and posible to sit in the beer garden near to the cars !

We could go for a spin down the gower to llangenith take some pics and pop in to the gower inn on the way back !!

Any time is good for me but will be better to give at least 2 weeks notice as it gives everyone a chance to attend then !

Other locations could be

Verdis in mumbles for an ice-cream lol
The ship in Port Eynon pub grub
The oxwitch bay hotell Pub grub
There are loads of others to....


Nick

[swellins]

the gower inn sounds good nick.

can everyone make it on the 11th? (sunday?)

[GINNO]

11th April is good for me :thumbs:

[VIDAL BABBOON]

Im ok with the 11th :thumbs:

[Atomicboy]

nice nice. I'll be there :nod:

[Phill]

I'm up for it but as the mine will probably be still in bits i'll be in an Evo 1!! :D

[Geraint Thomas]

Date is ok with me, where/what time are we meeting?

Does everyone realise this is Easter weekend and the Gower is not going to be exactly quiet.

[GINNO]

Good point made by Geraint.

We'll definitly stick with that date so far then and perhaps head up the valleys where its quieter and find a pub, although being an Easter weekend there will be speed Cameras out in force because they are robbing Barstewards and know everyone will be out

[VIDAL BABBOON]

Meeting point is going to be Junction 47 services.

Reason being we can head over to gowerton and around the gower then circle back to the gower inn near to upper killay.

Or

We can decide on another route as the easter weekend has been mentioned by Geraint who is thinking ahead unlike me lol

Meeting time is up to you guys but i would say that 10:00 am would be a good time to start off.


Nick

[swellins]

jct47 is cool for me, is the date ok for the 11th then or shall we change it?
A mate of mine has just got a s13 so theres another to add to the list of swansea *****`s:D

Damn right Gower ain't gonna be quiet with us lot tearing round!

Time, location etc. all good with me. We can always change plans on the day if it is v. busy - plenty of places within reach of J47.

[VIDAL BABBOON]

So J47 @ 10:00 AM on11th April we will finalize the details then.

Nick

[Geraint Thomas]

:thumbs:

[swellins]

I know its a sx meet but does anyone object to a mate of mine coming along in a mr2 turbo?

[Atomicboy]

No problem with that. Might convince him that 4 seats are better than 2 :thumbs:

[GINNO]

While we are at it then My mate has just bought a Carribbean Blue MR2 Turbo running 290 bhp i'll bring him along too :thumbs:

[Phill]

Yeah - why not. At then end of the day as long as it's jap and resonably quick!! :cool:

[swellins]

:cool: :cool:

[pan]

Phil...I wouldnt mind booking shotgun in the Evo for this...see what its all about then :sleep: ...I mean :thumbs:

[VIDAL BABBOON]

Sure you dont want to come in a proper car m8 :p

[StuartUK]

Sounds like convoy style driving up and down the gower, think i may have to come along !!! (swansea only 45 mins away normal driving, 22 mins away not normal driving !)

:D

Stu

[Jezz_S13]

Sure you dont want to come in a proper car m8 :p

Yeah, I'll give you a lift if you like Pan. :)

[Phill]

Yeah Panly my designated passenger for this year - you may jump in the Evo with me - and see how one should be driven . . . not like that pussy stonie!! :thumbs: :D :p

[B_P_Steve]

I'll probably come along to this too. As long as i'm not too hungover. :hurl:

[Phill]

Hay - it's Bullet Proof Steve - about time you started posting on here!!

[B_P_Steve]

Just been waiting for the right moment :D

Hopefully the decat, front pipe and filter will be fitted by the 11th

[Phill]

:cool: We'll sort it out this easter then . . .

[B_P_Steve]

Mint! if the decat arrives tomorrow then i might sort that tomorrow night. The filter won't be appearing until next wednesday maybe even later on in the week, so a hand fitting that would be much appreciated :thumbs:

I'm going to have to get some will power soon, i'm spending more time on the net doing "work related research" :cool:, than i am doing revision for the exam i have next week :rolleyes:

[Phill]

Nevermind - get saving for a Bren single box system, just make sure you order a bung for it!! :D

[B_P_Steve]

Nevermind - get saving for a Bren single box system, just make sure you order a bung for it!! :D


lol I think i'll be going for the twin silencer one! I was deaf after driving from the hotel to silverstone last time we went to Trax, no wonder mark wanted to go in stoneys car.

[Phill]

:nod: :D

It's not to bad with the bung mind you . . . I don't think you'll find the twin box system much quiter so buy a bung for that one anyway - would be interested to hear what it sounds like compared to mine though!

[VIDAL BABBOON]

Mine is loud enough now!!!

Steve you have heard Phil’s and mine now so should have an idea of sound volume.

Have to get a bung now as the pops are frightening the school kids :cool:

But Phil’s is soon to get loads louder I would expect :eek:

Nick

[B_P_Steve]

I'm driving the AX to work at the moment :annoyed: :down: , because its sips fuel(av 350miles to £20 :thumbs: ) and i'm travelling between morriston and singleton hospitals quite a lot at the moment.
That means that the 200 doesnt have to be super practical, a bit of noise will be ok, but i dont want it as loud as phils car is now and definitely not as loud as it will be.

[VIDAL BABBOON]

Ok so everyone get a post-it note to stick on the fridge, then write the following: -

I am going to be at Junction 47 services for 10:00 on Sunday morning (11th) so I can go and terrorize the Easter break tourists. :nod:


Nick :wave:

[Jezz_S13]

what's the plan?
IE what are we going to do after we meet, and until when?

[Phill]

I think the plan is to meet up - have a bit of a chat and introduce ourselfs, let the newbies intorduce themselves etc.

Then it's a bit of a blast down and around the gower, pub lunch and a pint and then either shoot off home or pop across to the mumbles for an ice-cream.

What ever floats your boat really mate . . .

[Jezz_S13]

Mmmm not sure.
Might just pop down to the meet, gower pub will be heaving, don't really want to thrash the car cos it's begining to sound a bit ropey and I need it to see off everyone next week LOL. :D

I might change my mind tomorrow though LOL.

[Phill]

I can pic you up if ya don't fancy driving mate . . .

[Jezz_S13]

nah, it's ok cheers mate. :)

[Atomicboy]

Nightmare! My motorbike lesson has been bumped back to tomorrow :censored: - and I can't miss it coz I'm doing my full licence before the school term starts. Had cleaned my engine and everything.. gutted :(

Sorry guys - feel like bit of a :ghey:

Hope you have a good time - and watch out for Gower School of motorcycling 'students'

[VIDAL BABBOON]

Gower aint set in stone mind.

We could go for the brecon idea !!

Will sort it out when we all get there :thumbs:

what bloke ? think you upset the biker's mrs tho :D

[Jezz_S13]

As we got into port einon...

Basically I lost you lot and didn't know where you were going so overtook some bloke in a Skoda (safely I might add) and his flashed his lights, beeped his horn etc etc etc so I waved at him).
Anyway when we got to the car park (the first one whereyou went for a piss and got us stuck behind the bus LOL) he drove past giving me the wakner sign (his wife was telling him to stop it when she saw 10 cars all the same. :D) so I ran after him to see ask what his problem was; He wound the window down and asked me what my problem was, so I just said I hadn't got one, I've come over here to see what yours is? I said " I overtook you safely, plenty of room..." I kept it civil and he just said "you're a a shit" and drove off. :confused:
I just don't think he had an argument for why he was upset, other than i wanted to be infront of him and had the ability to be so.

RE the bikers...
LOL yeah, not impressed that some 4 wheeled jap crap can gain on their 2 wheeled jap crap were they. LOL :D :D Either that or they were thinking WTF is that. :D

[Jezz_S13]

Ah, that's what the noise was LOL!!! I thought your tubby gaskets were feck when you were behind me.

No filter thoguh I'm afraid. :(

[cardiff scum]

tubby gaskets eh.turbo exhuast gasket needed can i get one local or postal? whos best for gaskets if it got to come off i may as well fit the lot any prices would help cheers oh by the way did you notice any more smoke

[swellins]

whats all this about bikers?! :wack:

[Jezz_S13]

Fabian way, biker squeezed between me and something else, van infront of me pulled in, I stuck it into 3rd, changed at the red line, roundabout, stuck with him, eased off to let him pull out after he buggered the lane choice up then nailed it after him traction control working it's cute little socks off and realed him in like a small fish then backed off to let chris catch up. :D

all sat at the lights, the bike, chris and phill in one lane, I went a different way so in other lane and the two peeps on the bike raised their visors and leared at me in a *humph* kind of way. :D

Drew,
Use nissan gaskets (arm and a leg) get chris's garage to fit them. :)

[cardiff scum]

o.k.chris i guess im in you tender embrace please be gentle.what is it with bikers anyway god gave us 4 wheels let them do the math

[Jezz_S13]

o.k.chris i guess im in you tender embrace please be gentle.what is it with bikers anyway god gave us 4 wheels let them do the math

make sure that's what it is first as that's what it sounded like, but I didn't realise you had issues with the new exhaust. Could be just that.

[cardiff scum]

it was just going to be a test fit but the old un was bust when it came off ill refit it properly when(if)i get an exhuast gasket any recomendations i cant see one on morris site

[Jezz_S13]

just go to J&J nissan in Skewen, take your vin numer with you, or have it with you when you ring.

There are 2 sorts for the head-> manifold, you need 2 of each, they are about £6 each.
The turbo->manifold is about £12 IIRC. +VAT of course.

You could ring Simon and ask him, make sure they are Nissan though, they do seem to be the best but I tihnk that's what he sells

[cardiff scum]

cheers that sounds resonable im going to post a new thread about all this as im hijacking this one more than a little

[GINNO]

Alright Lads ?? Sounds like you all had a good laugh but cant take you anywhere fighting with people in Skodas racing Motorbikes tut tut I dont know!!! Gutted I would have loved that!! :thumbs:

Well sorry I couldnt make it Went to Envy and had too much to drink Woke up to meet you all but had the Shakes and a serious hangover :hurl: !! I would have been over the Drink Drive limit big time so thought it best that I didnt drive!!

[pan]

Well it was good to come along for the ride...even though I dont have a 2hundie or was shotgun in one for the day :rolleyes: ...with a bit of luck there will be no need to fill my pants in the passenger seat of phils car for the next one :eek: ...I cant take being a co-driver any more :hurl:

lol @ the biker and his missus though

[Phill]

Pan you big PUSSY!

:D When you've got an Evo you've gotta use the 4x4 system to the max! :nod:

[Atomicboy]

[B_P_Steve]

I was going to turn up but didnt get up until 12.30. I was looking forward to meeting a few people, i'll make an effort to haul myself out of bed for the next meeting.

[Chris]
