Looking forward to meeting with you guys. I'm supposed to be going out to Eastern Creek with my bike with some friends for a ride day but I'll try to swing them to a Saturday ride instead.

Am thinking of ordering some stuff fr Japan parts, any advice on how to reduce tax taka?

Thanks.

Reduce tax??? Thats ilegal.

There are ways to make Koji san (parts manager) to give you a significant "discount" on the invoice so that there is change for your "budget" of AUD$1000 If you know what I mean. I will tell you how to get "discount" from Koji san during the meeting.

8a8y 8... you should have left your details with me when you were in Hong Kong. I met up with boyboydan and we have fun time (me at least ) shopping in his RX-8.

Is you look close to see I was in it???

Boyboydan one is red and it is one of 20 RX-8 in HK....

Anyone free on Sat to meet with us at Darling Harbour? We'll prob have to park at one of the car parks - Novotel or Exhibition Centre would be convenient. Not sure about a cruise on Sat arvo though as it'll be a bitch getting out of the city but a cold one or two-definitely
My mobile: 0405-440 889. Ciao.

Why not meet at some maccas that's close to some good driving roads (Old Pacific Hway-North, Old Princess to MacQuarie Pass-South, Bells Lline-West). Someone can volunteer to pick taka up fr the gawdawful city and join you guys before heading out for a fang eerrr.. I mean gentle cruise :D

By the way the Mt White café (aka Road Warriors Cafe) has good entertainment with bikes pulling stunts and I'm sure a group of 8s will generate some real interest. Go on scare some blades, R1s and gixers silly :D

I will be at the Convention centre (I remember it as a grey round old building)....

Maccas sounds good.... if no other alternatives.
