Great piece of road. A few complaints on bottle necks already present. Once you get to Frankston, you'll sit in bumper to bumper traffic which is caused by the traffic lights at the end of the Frankston freeway. The other complaints is going from 100km/h down to 60km/h into the tunnel heading north towards Mitcham. There was 2 'incidents' today with people jumping on the brakes. They really do need t oraiser the speed limit through the tunnels if they want the whole system to work correctly. They are banked up either side of the tunnels, very silly.

My car was in the Channel 10 feature :(

cameras might not work but someones already been caught doing 135kms on it. and thank god it wasnt a skyline, but a bmw.

unfortunately it was a P plater.

wat a f*k head

P plater+bmw+from mt martha=cockhead with rich parents, no ympathy.

man i doubt he was rich. it looked like a shitty 1998 3 series or something. barely even 20k

the guy only got a 1month suspention, $450 fine and 4 points.

wdh i thought 25kms+ was a auto 1 year suspension or something?

oh and just incase some ppl have missed it, should come along for the East Link Cruise =D

didnt say he was rich, more likely his parents bought it for him.

Have not been on p's in a long time but when i was it was 30+k's (now 25) was automatic 1 month, i got done twice back in the day in the 110 section heading out to gippsland.

i use to live in mt martha (sort of) with a few mates, met a few people from the rich part of mt martha and none of them did much for them selves, always wondered why they were working at places like safeway but had new cars and the latest and greatest of everything, turns out mummy and daddy pay for everything, maybe thats the way it is, i was thrown out of home when i was 15 so i have had to work for everything, piss's me off to see people like that get a free ride and do nothing with it.

Eastlink just creates more traffic. LOL!

Went on it this afternoon with the Street Reapers and cars everywhere and everyone driving average about 60 to 80 in a 100km zone...

But its a very smooth road tho.

yeah packed before...went up and back...only heavy in the tunnel city direction. Pretty quick to get everywhere.

As for the 5mil spent on the art..meh 5mil is sweet fa. still looks gay, especially that bird wtf is that suposed to represent?

they say it is going to ease traffic congestion in peak hour, cant see that happening, just going to be another place that is going to feed even more traffic onto the eastern and monash in bulk and make another bottle neck on an already over loaded access route to the city.

in non peak periods it will be great getting from the south east to the east but they need to do something more about peak hour.

doesnt take a genius to work out where the bottle nexk will be on the eastern during peak hour.

Yeah the tunnel causing abit of a hold up.

LOL at the art work. Saw abit of it then didn't even notice after that.

Probley so artist impression...

Well i just went on the new Eastlink. Not bad

I had a good run i was the only car in the tunnel. Well worth seeing at night guys...

And as for that motel thing...Well i dont know.. Im guessing some kind ot control tower..

Only saw 1 cop car(van) at the Frankston end heading back towards the city....

i took a few pics (well my mate in another car did) round that time. thru the tunnel. got a vid but all you can hear is road noise

The bird is representative of S.Bracks legacy to Victorian taxpayers....Superfluous crap.

It's a road not a new annex of the n.g.v.

Glad you're not in charge of the government coffers and hopefully/probably never will be.

The Eastlink is pretty cool imo went on this morning about 8:30am got on at Burwood Hwy to the city. took less than 20 mins to get to the end of Alexander pde from Wantirna was pretty stoked with that. Been waiting long enough for the road so it should be worth all the wait

had work today so didn't have much time but went to the ringwood bypass coming back from city on the eastern.. yea all of a sudden there were cars everywhere after springy and the tunnel was farked!!! really packed and people to busy looking at all the pretty colours and not driving!

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
