My car's been off the road for about 9 months now, so she's no good for driving at the moment.. Got a stack of work to do to it, but not enough cash flow to put into it! I'll be working at least 6 days per week starting next week so might find it difficult to get to a cruise for a while. I agree, it has been slow... probably coz there's less and less cordias getting around? dunno! 

Ok how about just a get together and bbq and So some of us can meet the other south australian CordiaFreaks members and trade some Cordia stories or in Steve's case Starion stories.

im in mate

haha! Absolutely!!! I've got a number of stories! Still have some cordia ones to write! hahaha...

So what would be a good weekend for everyone and where should we have it?

Just us 3?

I'm going to Queensland in a couple of weeks for my bro's wedding, so might not be able to make it till September... Until then, I'm pretty tight for cash...  LOL I'll have to bring the Starion, as the Cordia is out of commission! haha

Well hopefully not just the 3 of us maby we can convince the other south Australian Cordia enthusiasts to tag along thats cool steve I reckon we need to wait for some good weather for a bbq anyway.

In Adelaide there's 'cordial' and 'bitza', there's probably a few more guys too who may like to come along... a barbecue and some beers would be wicked!!! September is the start of Spring, so after then it'll hopefully be dryer roads. LOL

Hey Steve, are you going too be comming too the goldy/brissy area?

Doesnt matter, Any cordia un-defected is special these days!!!! Besides your front end looks good! Wanna trade he he he. So whens this meet n greet guys? Andrew, You want me to pick you up in my slo-mo jo? (my nickname for my cordz :)

Hey guys been a while. So are we south autralians still wanting a cruise \ bbq somtime soon???

Hey! Not sure how I missed this post!... Yes I'm up for a cruise/bbq... But just need to get my TPS to set first, it's still giving me trouble. I'm gonna swap the TPS with my spare one and see how that goes!

Got any ideas on location or whatever? I'm about 1.5 hours north of Adelaide

Nah haven'tdecided a place yet all depends on how many people and what their suggestions are as to where and when

Fair enough, I reckon we need to have a small cruise, with however many people come, take photos, write an article about the cruise and then have another one, people will then know that our cruises will actually happen, as we've had a few no-show events... I think then we'll get more interest for a bigger one that way!

Well Steve looks like we are interested but does 2 people + my other half in the one of our other cordia's make a cruise???? Common South Australia any cordia will do!!!!!!!

I think it does actually! haha...

Only one small issue, my cordia has been wearing the front-right brake pad down a lot (there's half as much meat on the pad than there is on the left)... I've been hearing a noise like wheel bearings, but I think it's the piston in the front-right brakes might be stuck, as in maintaining pressure on the disc.

I'm thinking I may have to change the brake calipers, but I think these are Magna discs on it... So not sure yet... But will need to look into it...

As it is, the noise is like a shuddering/scoring sound from the front area, and appears to get worse each time I drive it... I reckon it's brakes, but might be the wheel bearings, however we did them about 5 years ago and the car hasn't really done a lot of km, maybe 25,000 in that time, so my money is on the brakes.

When were you hoping to have this cruise? I'll need to look into this issue before I'd be able to attend... Cheers man, hope you're doin well! 

Yeah I am doing good and The Cordia feaks site is performing rather quickly than it used to so Kudo's on that. Yeah still not sure about a date yet but It may have to be just a bbq at one of our houses or somthing like that if your breaks are a bit annoying.  magna's  I might be able to get ya a couple of calipers for nothing. Depending on model or cheaply. Heck I might even buy them for ya just so its back on the road. My dad has a few magnas down his place in murray bridge (where my gsr is sitting waiting for the motor to go in... Been 2 years since I got it off ebay motor is all ready just waiting for my dad to have a spare weekend) but I could get some bits off them I believe Damm cheap or free if I don't tell him (lol) but yeah over the next 2 weeks would be good for me for this giganticly small cruise.

Well this coming week I should be getting a replacement distributor for the starion, so might need to bring that instead of the cordia... I'm about 1.5 hours north of Adelaide so my place might be a bit out of the way... Unless you feel like a long drive haha... Andrew, what do you think?

Thats alright I live in the barossa

But,for the ones who aren't from Australia ...?
