I try to make sure mine have at least 78% nitrogen. :ninja:

Yep, and exactly why I used that terminology. I've worked at airports most of my life, and whilst not normally used in reference to aircraft, I found it useful to use when trying to indicate a particular component, such as a door, over the radio to an observer that was most likely watching via...

Booking mine in now and deciding whether to get engine bay. How did that go?

If you order it from the UPR website itself it knows which one you need, and the other is an optional extra for the "clean side". No mention of left, right, driver or passenger. The product picture shows it on the "starboard side" (the only way I could think of describing it with no room for...

Naturally Aspirated and Forced Induction

PARSIFAL has been delayed getting into her berth in Port Kembla. THERMOPYLAE is still there and is due to cast off at 1200 with PARSIFAL coming straight in at 1245, leaving again at 2000. There appears to be no impact on Melbourne times.

Congrats to Bobsp12 on becoming our new moderator! :clap2: :cheers: :thumbsup: :headbang: :ford: :shrug: :first: :crazy: :amen: :doh:

If it's on Prixcar now then it's very likely you still have a Port Kembla offload. Sounds like Prixcar didn't have your full details and put the Melbourne address as a placeholder. Or as an April Fool trick. :eyebulge:

Next stop after Port Kembla is Melbourne. Expected arrival on Tuesday at 1230 AEDT. Departure time from Melbourne is not listed yet but it will be sometime on Wednesday.

Yep, have had no real problems. The first guy was a bit slow on the communication but Paul and Ashleigh have been great. Will be picking mine up on the the 26th. I've told them not to worry with the briefing - I've driven several already in the US and enjoy working that stuff out myself anyway.

My Port Kembla pickup is showing in Prixcar. Priority 3 with no dates attached, but I have arranged my delivery date with the dealer as 26 April to give them plenty of time to inspect and rectify defects, given that I have to travel to Sydney and it will be difficult to arrange later. So that...

Stampede time

I think the launch of the Mustang in Australia, the advent of online tracking, and the fact that the Mustang is an enthusiast car with active forums where we all talk to each other is a bit of a perfect storm for Ford that they just weren't prepared for and are unable to react to. In the past...

Fat fingered crew member no doubt. The last satellite position was at 1449 AEST and had her 166 nautical miles out and still heading the right direction at 16 knots. She ought to be tied up and ramp down by sunrise.

Update 30 March I should be reporting this in QLD time, so as at 0512 AEST PARSIFAL was only 318 nautical miles from the Port of Brisbane and will come alongside early tomorrow morning. :clap2:

I'm going to be putting in an order for a UPR oil separator next week. If anyone wants to share postage with me let me know via my post in the Facebook group, or PM me here if you aren't on FB. If we get more than a handful I'll ask for a bulk discount too. Currently it's just me and Stubai.

Update 28 March At 1552 AEDT PARSIFAL was 936 nautical miles from Brisbane. Question for others perusing this thread who already have their vehicles, how long has it been taking from disembarkation to your car being available for pickup from the dealer? (Not counting any extra time it took...

Doesn't seem to have the full colour range in the drop down, including the most important one!

Me too, last weekend. I've told the missus that the garage will hold the Mustang, the Jeep and the Triumph, and her truck will have to stay outside over winter. :bolt: I hold no illusion of actually getting away with that. Somehow I suspect the poor ol' Jeep will be out in the cold again...

I managed to see her in the corner of some webcam images but was too tired after night shift to capture and post them. She's on her way again. About 1315 nautical miles to Brisbane.
