This guy is genuine fellas, wish I could chop you out Graeme but I ain't know anyone!

thanks deano, respect mate

Have you thought about sticking it on a transporter to get it down there.. would be bucketloads cheaper. Once down there, get tune and rego and drive it home. Last time a car come across from Perth it was only $600

Once down there, get tune and rego and drive it home. Last time a car come across from Perth it was only $600 now that's thinking and a plan, good idea! imagine the fuel you'd use towing the car both ways otherwise too Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Graeme... you make me wish I had a trailer to lend you mate. If I could help in any way I would - unfortunately, I usually end up hiring trailers or paying a towie when I need my car transported locally....

Aus880 fuel isn't a problem champ work pays for fuel

Cheers mark, yeah if it was local then I would just pay a tow truck ect but its down to Melbourne to get tuned and ill be there for 3 weeks befor I return...

Hire a trailer that u can drop off at an affiliated servo. Ie: bp in qld to bp in Vic... If not float it down mate that's your best and only option.

This alone would make me ditch lpg. All the way to vic for a tune :s

call ceva

Not towing to Vic over Christmas time is my idea of fun! Is there nobody up here that can tune with lpg?

I've called heaps of places they all claim they can do it but have not got any quick cars to show for it... One mob said they can dune the LPG no problem at all as there an LPG gas research specialist but they Don't tune haltech so it defetes the purpose of the tune
