Hey Albert I'm definitely in for this mate, though I think I'll be the one having clearance issues at the ferry. Got the new car registered today, just got to fix up some last little electronics, alarm, lights/indicators - LOL. :)

Will be good to see you again mate.

Yey! watch out for rabbits n shit ok :(

If you have a lowered car, or a front bar like mine with alot of overhang then you might have dramas... std front bar and height, no dramas!

ok

factory front bar goes back on on the day :down:

Ps Can someone post up a route for this drive, hopefully a map that highlights the route

that we gonna take :P

cheers!

every few months me and some friends go up to a place in the middle of nowhere and hire out a cabin for the weekend... its located between maroota and wisemans ferry on the hawksbury river. the roads out there are awesome..... theres a road called river road that is usually 1.5 lanes wide and is in good condition.... first night i went up there was about 8 months ago and i was driving up at 1am when it was raining..... gunning it around blind corners and all since i was the only car around and i doubt anyone lived out there let alone coppers... windy road to myself what would you do? anyway made it to my destination after sliding all over the road.... the next afternoon when i went home i took the same route back..... it was a clift drive along a river with nothing other than the occasional tree to stop me from falling in the river, luckily i didnt f**k up lol

but i recon we should do that drive one day in summer... from castle hill it will take about 3 hour drive round trip.... im not sure if theres more than one ferry that does the cars crossing on the hawksbury but on that road there is a car ferry so im wandering if its the same one you guys have been talking abour????

i'll organise the route if people are interested

lol yeah man sounds good, so for those guys with the low cars n shit, HARDEN THE F**K UP :woot:

yeap cruise will be on if the weather is happy, but worst case we can hide in maccas and sipping up slurrpy ;)

do you want to buy me a new bar????? :P nah jokes, should be good.

just follow me as per usual. ( depend how long or short of trip you want too)

berowra waters, is that where that sea food restaraunt is??? next to the water there?

i think i went there back in 2004

yeah, thats the one

forgot to say with choice 2 you have to cross another ferry at sackville which i think could be more dangerous than berowra ( again i think)

but all roads out there are fantastic it's just the way you want to go.

i like 2 the best aswell.... 1 is also pretty good,,,,, 3 is good but id rather do 1 or 2..... and if we cant get onto the ferry, we go back to pit town road and start the number 1 option???? or 3 depending how much time we got....

shane shane shane didn't you learn anything from "gone in 60 seconds"? You apparently do not need breaks to drive in the city/suburbia.... a good but silly movie at the same time

Sackville ferry is ok... never had a problem there... we have property on wisemans river there ;)

They updated it a little while ago with the hydraulic lifter thingys for the ferry... :(

make it a long cruise.

no speed cameras.

wollongong?

appin road brah!

oh, Choice two for me.

yo Anna, rekon i could get those brakes on by then?

Yep.. can do this weekend if you wants??? Just need to get them pretty red for you... so maybe we get them ready this weekend and install during the week???? Seeing you are nice and close and all!!!

Rears are still a couple of weeks away ;)

hahah no brakes for city/suburbia driving? NO PROBLEMS! get rid of speed cameras and traffic lights and all other traffic.

sweet Anna, ill just wait until the rears are ready so you can put them on together all at once!

How much to get them pretty red?

Haha. No way. In person these boys haven't got the balls to say the shit they post on here. 'Keyboard Warrior Syndrome' or KWS is what it's called. :laugh: Don't take any of it personal, they're just having a bit of fun because you seem to be cool with it. If it's pissing you off, just say so.

Hey!!! I like being a 5ft 4" 62kg Keyboard Warrior.... and i have the balls to say that!!!! ;)

If you're talking about the plush one owned by the Swiss dude that you can only get to by boat or sea plane - then yes, Berowra Waters is the place.

    • Impossible to remove the housing while turbo is installed on the manifold on the engine. So I have to do it anyways. I plugged it so there will not be any debris in there. Will vacuum aswell 
    • would a r34 gtr hood line up with gt/gtt stock fenders? after latch, front bumper and hinges are swapped for gtr ones? or would the fenders be too low or high in relation to the hood surface? ( I believe seeing somewhere that gtr front fenders use some type of riser for the sides, but do not know how that relates to stock gt/gtt fenders.)    
    • 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
