Guys,
Marques is coming up again this year. These details are from the CCG (canberra Celica Group) noticeboard. It would be great to get a good turnout of AE86's this year, as there are a few more about now. Remember, it doesn't have to be a show car, just a classic Toyota, and it's free.
If you dont know it, the details are as follows:

"CCG Attending Marques in the park 2010

Been trying to decide who to go with, CCG/Toymods or Rollaclub. Been a member of the rollaclub forums pretty much since I got my first car and attended Marques with them last year, but it's not an extremely active club (in ACT) and I've done almost as much with CCG as I have with Rollaclub over the past year, so I might tag along with you guys.

Will have to spend a couple of days cleaning up my engine bay before so at least something on the car looks nice and shiny or else everyone will think mine car is the same as Jojos, just looks shitter.

Jamekins, Whats is it thats wrong with ya stoppers?

jamekins
22nd October 2010, 02:10 PM
I'm having issues with the new proportioning valve I put in when I did the diff swap. For some reason one of the brake lines won't screw into it properly, I think the thread on the line or the valve may be a bit rooted (I think it may be the line causing the issue). So its just the one brake line stopping me from driving the car and I don't have much time to fix it right now.

Jamekins, how is the brake problem coming along?

I've been too busy with uni work to even think about fixing it over the past week. I'll see if I can get it working before sunday.

Well I never got time to fix the car before the event. I rocked up at about 1 in my daily but I think most of you had left by then. CCG boys had a good sausage sizzle on though.

Nice pics Jojo!

Most of the ones I got were close up shots of engine and detail shots of the cars. I only realised after I left I'd barely got any full car shots, lol.

You can see all mine here: http://www.photos.tregearit.com/main.php?g2_itemId=6622

We should organise an 86 photoshoot some time.

Glad there was one you liked. The sun was super bright which is quite annoying with shiny cars.

I didn't even realise AE86DC was representing at Marques! I was there across from you with Team Ground Zero. Only had five cars on show. We had a 180SX, R32, R33, SW20 and a Subaru B4. I was planing on bringing my 86 but the engine died a few days before hand. Holy hell the sun was hot!

Nice photos. Makes me wish I'd got there earlier so I could have had a bit of a chat. I did manage to get the brakes working that afternoon too. Shame the engine decided to stop firing in one cylinder so I couldn't really go for a drive :l
