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!

    • I've searched fairly extensively among Japanese websites but found nothing really like those skirts in your photo. The closest I got was Origin Labo side skirts however they look more 'complete' in that they have a finishing piece or tab at the rear of the skirt so it blends into the bodywork, unlike the one in your pic. For that reason I'd say the skirts in your pic could be adapted from another car and they didn't include that tab piece, or those skirts aren't copied from an existing skirt but an original design. Sorry I can't help out in regard to ID'ing/sourcing them
    • Wonder if JB Weld sponsored the event lol
    • There's a big difference between a car built with millions of dollars in R&D, and someone like yourself taking a normal sporty road car, and making it 5 times more powerful. At the same time, get a modern sports car, and you can turn them up towards the 1000hp mark a lot easier too. Also, give that Lambo another 20 odd runs, and chances are it too may break something.
    • There isn’t really a cheap upgrade here. If someone made a decent, bolt in 6 speed that holds some grunt, it would do very well. The 5 speeds suck. You can put a - OSG 5 speed gear set into it. Ratios are tall so it zaps the “zing” out of it. Had one, busted it. - PPG 5 speed gear set synchro or dog’s. Ratios are even taller. - An overpriced Getrag. Nice to drive, expensive to source now. - A sequential of some sort. Expensive, very expensive. How many times do you pop a 5 speed before you throw the toys out of the cot?  
    • Yes, fair call. I don't have any special love for super/hyper cars but it was impressive to watch the Lambo line up against successive skylines without any problem at all.
