We all take a vacation to england and defintately aus and new zealand. When we get there, we visit every junkyard there and start ganking a whole mess of parts. Afterwhich we take them back with us and have ourselves a fieldday with putting the good lookin stuff on

Who's with me?

Post by **Legacy777** » Thu Oct 09, 2003 2:50 am

haha

don't think that'd work for me.....maybe I could expense it some how.....LOL

Mom and Dad? That wouldn't happen to be the moderators on the board would it?

Here's my approx. expenses per person:
Flight to England from New York ~ $300
Hotel in London ~ $30/ night
Rental Car ~ $50/ day
Junkyard purchases ~ $120/ day
Figure on 5 days in London ~ $1000
Freight back to US ~ $500

Flight from London to New Zealand ~ $1000
Hotel in NZ ~ $30/ night
Rental Car ~ $50/ day
Junkyard purchases ~ $120/ day
Figure on 5 days in NZ ~ $1000
Freight back to US ~ $800
Flight from NZ to US ~ $1500

Total Cost: $6100
Not too bad.

it'd probably be cheaper just to have a nz car shipped to the us.

Could save a whole bunch of money staying with members that already live there

Who wants to put up all us yanks for a few days?

Ah well, a man can dream can't he

1000 bucks for five days in the UK? That's a lot. I think we could do it for less.

Post by **Legacy777** » Thu Oct 09, 2003 2:21 pm

no....mom & dad are not the moderators......LOL maybe if I won the lottery or made 6 or 7 figure income.......but as of right now......that's just fantasy

I went to Greece and Egypt for a little over $2K. I'm sure UK would be a lot cheaper.

England? Why? If I'm gonna travel across the world to get Subaru parts, I'm heading to the Land of the Rising Sun, baby!

Before I die, I will go to Japan. I wanna see STi Type R's running around like Ford Tauruses...

THAWA · Post by **THAWA** » Fri Oct 10, 2003 5:59 am

Well just add japan to the list.

LaureltheQueen · Post by **LaureltheQueen** » Fri Oct 10, 2003 7:40 am

rather get my wrx swap.

LaureltheQueen · Post by **LaureltheQueen** » Fri Oct 10, 2003 7:42 am

Hmmm... okay, here's the plan. I'm going to Australia in a little over a year. Everyone send me a shopping list around the time of my departure, and I'll spend a few days yarding.

THAWA · Post by **THAWA** » Fri Oct 10, 2003 7:48 am

no shit? If you are serious I better start saving money

Dr Nick · Post by **Dr Nick** » Fri Oct 10, 2003 8:30 pm

Don't want to rain on the parade but (a) you'll NEVER get a hotel room in London for $30 a night (more like $65 for a Travelodge which is BASIC!!

) and (b) you'll be lucky to find any sort of worthwhile Subaru parts. Anyway, we want them all.

I think a trip to the land of the Rising Sun is the answer. Biggest cost will probably be a translator!

I'll be up for it in about 5 years when I've saved up the cash!!

I think New Zealand....and maybe Australia too...but definately NZ...it seems like thats the english speaking country thats where all the old/used japanese cars go to retire. Good exchange rates...expensive flights...don't know about shipping. From australia isn't as bad as I thought...hopefully NZ is the same. Maybe if we got enough people/cash toghether, we could get a shipping container sent...

OMG! I'll have my favorite teacher bring me back something when he goes to NZ for christmas with his daughters. What should I get?

THAWA · Post by **THAWA** » Tue Oct 14, 2003 5:47 am

jdm lights, dash/centerconsole, new steering setup. Then convert your car to rhd

I'm in, but I have to wait until August before I can take my 2 week Vacation

Brat4by4 · Post by **Brat4by4** » Tue Oct 14, 2003 2:46 pm

We already have board members in any country that has sweet stuff (except Japan). Why not have them round up some stuff and split the shipping on a crate over here?

Unless someone wants to fly over there for the heck of it...
