Hey Ian, Craig, Harry, and Andrew I just wanted to say thanks for the opportunity to see the Datsun 1200 world Down Under. It was awesome to put faces to names and hang out with you guys up at Bathhurst and such. Thanks again Ian for picking me up and making the whole thing happen. Sorry I didn't get to hang out more after that Saturday, I had to work everyday all day from Sunday until we left...I am so burnt out on work right now! Anyways, good luck with everyone's projects in progress, I hope to have mine go under the knife soon.

After the holidays wind down after New Years, I'm probably going to buy another cheap banged up 180SX to donate it's SR20 to the 1200 coupe. There's several on Yahoo Japan for next to nothing ($100-1,000) but I won't be able to buy until after Jan. 15th or so cause work is too busy. I'm currently looking for a properly sized (thin, long, and not too tall!) intercooler for a good price on Ebay...looking for something between 5-9 inches high, 12-23 inches wide, but no more than 2.5 inches thick, preferably thinner. I'm trying to keep the 'cooler hidden between the grill and radiator but will need to keep the radiator, 'cooler, and fans as thin as possible!!! Well, take it easy, Australia was awesome (too bad work sucked) and I can't wait to visit again. Merry Christmas!
