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'm a fan of the JZX110, and the Aristo. Big cruiser cars, and with the factory cars, super comfortable and feel like you're driving an armchair! And the JZ motors are a pretty nice engine too, especially with some basic mods.   The import process, and the need to be able to trust people, and the fact there's so many scammers around is what ever puts me off wanting to go through that ordeal!
    • I don't care for these at all, but at least the underside looks straight and not rusty. A good basis for a long life. Many cars from Japan have been lifted with forklifts and f**ked almost irrepairably.
    • Yes, but it's not dumb or dodgy. You can build a perfectly good boost controller from a pressure reg, a relief valve (looks same same as a reg if all from Norgren or SMC, for example) and a check valve. I ran one for years. Only superceded with  EBC because I could get one for cheaps and wanted finer control.   THis mod is certainly not a sketchy boost mod, provided the boost is kept below the "spin to death" threshold of the turbos.
    • With ordering the belt, you're doing water pump and the idler and tensioner at the same time too yes?
    • This is just a dumb way of keeping the wastegate closed to make more boost. Undo it and either follow the factory setup or redo it properly. Manual boost controllers just use a spring preload to determine when to close in response to boost pressure so it no longer vents to atmosphere.
