Due to the other organiser not providing any details for the cruise from the twin servo's to Nelson's Bay we thought we'd get another one on the way.

Date: Monday 17th April

Time: 10.30am meet (11am depart)

Meeting place: Edgeworth Macca's

Then meet up with maitland people at caltex at end of F3 (11:15)

Destination: Walka water works

All cars welcome skylines or not, bring your friends for a nice drive. The water works park has elec bbqs, tables and chairs, toilets, plenty of shade and lots of grass area.There is no shop up there so you will have to pack everything you need. Bbqs are $1.A rug or chair will come in handy.

You will need $3 to get in, must have correct change($2 or $1 coins)

Let us know if your interested. Should be a good day.

Coming so far

5) weapn + 5 cars

6) d-d (maybe)

7) Mum's Taxi

Simon said the roads up there have just all been re-tarred and are good. The roads worry me too but he said they were ok. If there are any other suggestions on where to go, we can change it. The vineyards was just an easy answer.

If the roads are good i am fine to go, but if they are crap its not good.

Does any one actually know for certain? or are we assuming they are still bad?

Ill speak to Simon

ok you can count us in on this cruise.

sounds like it will be an enjoyable drive

provided the road has been upgraded since I last drove on it.

lets just say potholes and coil overs do not go together very well

a very costly mistake.....

but either way were in

not sure if we'll be in my car or the other halfs (brizzi)

when you check out the roads let us know definate meet up times

for us people that already live up that way maybe we can meet up somewhere say Maccas at Rutherford for a suggestion or elsewhere

then arrange to meet up with the rest of the pack.

just a suggestion..

I'm in...

the roads up the way are pretty good now.

My job takes me on them regularly, and even in a truck they're pretty good.

I was just up there on thursday, and the majority of them a re pretty good.

I haven't looked at that map on the first post yet for the route you suggested, but I'll check it out later on today and tell you if I know any of them are too shit to drive performance cars on.

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
