Let's see where everyone's at


There doesn't seem to be many melbourne people around. I was kinda hoping for a cruise to the drive-in or something in a month or so.

So where is everyone from?:)

There are plenty of Melbourne people here Wild1, just got to know where to look. Not so many W.A folk, but hopefully will be over that way soon enough!

At least you've got your license which means you will actually be able to truely experience what its like to own a Volkswagen, and not just talk about it!

Need any help we are more than happy to help. Schmoburger, Fekkinell and ColumBUS all have Kombi's, they will definitely help you out!

Ash: already done - http://forums.aussieveedubbers.com/viewtopic.php?tid=52993
had a few replies, but not quite what I'm looking for (ie. a fairly complete bay window Kombi, preferably a camper, for between $3000 - $6000)

Chris: thanks, I'm loving this place already and I can't wait till I get the dub. I'm not sure about the travelling, NSW I'd definitely consider, especially if it's a good looking dub.

and being an amateur shutterbug I doubt I'd be able to stop taking photos of it when i get it hehe

Gday marty... teh aforemention, much fabled (so he thinks) Schmoburger heeeaaare! :D

Welcme to the loony bin... and Chris You stole my line!!!! :duh... THE MAD HAUS LINE IS MINE MINE MINE!!! :cry

but anyway...returning to a state of psycholgical stability... :lol:

Again, welcome aboard Marty... if ya have any kombi questions, me, fish and fekkinel are quite happy to share our varying degrees of baywindow knowledge from the perspective of youngish blokes, all having got down and dirty with our Kombi's instead of of getting somebody else to :D... the only way to learn anything and make sure the job is done right is do it yaself after all! :lol

And there are various others around teh forum who'd be cluey on many aspects of teh Kombi, namely Helbus (madawsome paint and bodywork wizard...incidently rresiding in Melbourne), Amazer (cool guy who has tolerated a very battered kombi and cant stand asshats), Kombi_Recue (guy with so many Kombi's I could cream my panties...over the kombis that is... not the guy :D), Lobus (the God of lowered baybus...also in Melbourne), and WarrenM (Kombi collecter from the left coast with a wealth of knowledge particularly with regards to campers)... :tu:

You may also want to join BWM... a club for all bay-savvy cool people... dont be a stranger! :lol: :D teh link be in me sig if you are that way inclined. :)

Now back to Chris... revving a 1300 at 5000rpm???? WTF!!!... are you absolutely nuts???!!! my bay's 2L screams at 4000 man!!! :duh

If you plan to drive your baja like that regularly, expect to beat out your crankcase ends and throw rods within a month.... possibly crack a head or six... and if yor really unlucky, eat your semi-auto tranny. :o

5000 revs in any VW engine, let alone a type 1 is absolute insanity... anywhere above 4000... well, just dont do it!!!!:puke

They were never designed to be thrashed like that! :duh

rant over....

Have a good night gentlemen!.. and fine ladies in the case of Ash. :)

lol, brentons running a 1300 :o Lol

Probs when getting used to driving a 1.8 ltr stroker. Tis embarrassing that the ford laser breases at 5000, but the dub is a low rev-er

Was quiet a worryful situation actually. But i have had no choice but to drive em rough. the mates one needed a clutch to be adjusted, was impossible to lift off for anyone, the only way u could was to put ur foot down hard and let go :o :no:

Yep, a 1600 TP in my baby.
Also the fable VW engine has always been known as a low revving engine (It even says so in their old advertisements).
Either way, I'm glad another person is breathing air once again.
Now, just to convert you to full Volkswagenism!

Wot a load of crap.:puke I've got one hear that has been to 8000 several times.My buggy went to 6200 rpm everytime i drove it:repuke.....if the motor is standard it will take some abuse,but generalizing about "5000 revs in any VW engine, let alone a type 1 is absolute insanity" is rubbish. Your 2 liter would rev to 6000rpm easily if it could breath....:kiss:beer:beer:rudolf
