I'm gonna have to see if I know someone who can explain where that is Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

http://www.smaps.co.nz/nz/auckland/mission+bay/ Michael J Savage Memorial park on Tamaki Drive is the place you are looking for, at least I think thats where 4sakenvl means.

Yea thats where i ment Michael Savage memorial thought that is an easier place to find than the original helocopter place, and its good spot for some photos of the cars before the cruise..

Awesome, thanks for that! So I assume it's that little dead end street off Tamaki?

yea the one that goes up hill to the look out n gardens etc where all the bus loads of chings go.

Ma car has decided to blow a head gasket now and got oil coming up under the radiator cap from it which is really great.. Trying to get ahold of ma mechanic hopefully he not busy and get it done in time for cruise on sat other ****in suck.

Well, I made it to Alex's place to swap beer for parts, no issues getting there. But getting to the meet up point.. that didn't work out Not knowing where I was going and one of my wheel bearings giving up AGAIN made me decide to go home. Gonna go have a closer look at the squeak now.. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

i didnt break down or get lost and im from out of town, come on guys! Quote: Now that you've said that I'll bet we all break down or somethin' And yeah I'm pretty sure I know where I'm goin, looks like there's just the one road. how was fri 13th for you tusky?

Seems like Saturday the 14th is much worse! I didn't end up looking at my wheel bearings.. I got distracted by shooting at things. So no one else turned up?! And yes, I don't know auckland at all, I would've made it if I had gone from home, but cause I went to get my Calais grill (!!) first it ****ed me up!

Bad luck Robbie, that's Holden's for you Thanks for coming and taking that stuff away... I'll have a better look for that wheel cap when I get a chance Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

I'll have a better look for that wheel cap when I get a chance It's not that it's a Holden, it's that I took it to a **** workshop. I had the whole diff problem sorted out, so the shafts and bearings and everything would've been out (and should've been looked at) then (that was about a week before the brock cruise, and I had the cracks welded up the day before the cruise, I hadn't driven it yet) then on the brock cruise it started squeaking, so the whole time we are rolling around pukekohe it's driving me nuts (and some diff oil leaked out from behind the disc). Took it back to the **** shop, got charged for new wheel bearings and some labour, seemed alright until now (diff has sounded a little bit rough, not sure though really) and now today it has the same high pitched squeak as I take off. I have this feeling that they just packed the bearings with thick grease.. (I found out after leaving my car with them, that they charged someone I know for new oil seals when really they just smeared the old ones with silicone, they tried fixing the leak for them a couple of times and the owner ended up doing it themself with the help of the guy I know(and it hasn't leaked since)) A bit long winded.
