posted a while back about the idea of weather anyone would be interested in doing a weekend up in mansfield and do a few runs up Mt Buller after the ski season finishes.

My parents live up there so i could organise a motel with undercover parking etc. takes about 2 hours to get up there, i know its a long way but well well worth the drive as going up buller is unreal fun and once at the top there are massive empty carparks ect that would make a mad place for photos. the drive from bottom to top takes around 15-20 mins and is windey all the way and climbs up to 1902m above sea level.

just toying with the idea at the moment as to weather anyone would be interested, know a couple of sau guys with gtrs that are keen and will have a chat to a few at the sorrento cruise!

let us know if any of you guys are interested!

cheers all

seems like a plan, when u planning to organise the cruise?

was just gunna see how many people are interested, find out when everyone has a free weekend and take it from there. mabie some time late november early december!

yeah the mt buller sprint is a mad event, so many such nice cars compete in it! shame about the 4g entry fee by the time insurance etc is paid for tho!

really hoping i get some interest in doing a weekend up there because so many people dont realise how much fun it is driving up the mountain!

cheers

There is a actual organise event at Bullar coming soon i think (Bullar Sprint).

Two years ago a few of us SAU went there to watch, the cruise to Bullar in the morning is beautiful not to consider yummy bacon, cheese and tomato sandwich at Mansfield :mellow:. There were TWO evo's went off the cliff, they are competitors.

bumpity bump!

thinkin might organise this some time in december! bit more interest and ill start pm'ing interested partys and see which weekend suits!

trust me, mt buller is well well worth the drive!

im down for it loved the great ocean rd and aurthers seat sounds like fun :D

sweet! well what i had in mind was heading up to mansfield on saturday morning, lunch in town then head up for a run up buller. that night dinner and drinks in town (motel i have in mind is bout 2 mins walk from pub) then do another run up buller on sunday morning. what weekend do people interested recommend that doesnt clash with any other sau events? good to see some interest! anyone that enjoyed arthurs seat will love buller, arthurs seat for 15 mins instead of 4!

cheers!

    • Its also worth mentioning that 30 years after it left the factory and god knows how many missed oil changes since, there is every possibility that one or more lifters are ticking because they are sticky/gummed up. To resolve that you need to pull the cams then pull each lifter, disassemble, clean, reassemble, soak in oil and re-install, and they should come up good as new.
    • What air filter are you running? Is it a panel filter in the stock air box, or a pod filter? Is the air filter the type that is oiled?   If you unplug the IACV, what rpm does the engine idle at?
    • Reading through the engine service manual their advice is do a cylinder balance test. Unplug one injector at a time and see if the idle drops a consistent RPM. You can also do this using a Consult cable which is easier. They also call for unplugging the power transistor, then with the engine off and the fuel rail unhooked from the manifold verifying that you have good fuel flow (even injection, no dripping/leaks, etc) when you twist the CAS by hand. Also verify the spark by pulling the spark plugs and allowing the plugs to ground and turning the CAS by hand. I would also start doing the sensor checks and idle valve checks in service manual. Make sure the MAF tests reasonably, the intake air regulator is sane, etc. You may have to get new spark plugs.
    • This sounds very old of me, however since buying the Tiguan shit box, my view on shit boxes have changed.
    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
