Vic-nice Roads/spots To Boost/cruise Your Skyline


Recommended Posts

Hey fellow skyliners. :(

I wanted to start a new thread on good locations to take your car for a drive. Please feel free to add other locations that you found fun.

Twisty road and great views:

Apart from the obvious one which is great ocean road, towards lorne, I found Arthurs Seat my favourite. Arthus Seat is on the way to Sorrento. It has some twisty roads while you climb up and the mountain has the best view i ever seen anywhere in Victoria. I highly recommend it.

ill add some pictures i took off my mobile camera to give you an idea of what the view looks like from the top. It also pays to go up there during night if its a nice and hot night, apart from beatuiful views, you might even get lucky if your with your ladie/s lol...enough said.

Please feel free do add your thought on great locations, as i am looking to explore Victoria a bit more.

The blackspur for sure! , such a smooth surface and great corners and straights..

maybe in a few years when it looks decent, atm not much of a view to go look ...

but yes roads are very smooth and twisty in some parts :( much fun to drive on

p.s , this may just help the cops out on where to locate and sting skyline drivers ....... hot spots if you must :)

Probably not for a skyline, but my mate took me in his Evo on this windy gravel road that was about 20-30kms - the best public rallying road I have ever been on. Not a single car for the whole stretch. Awesome fun.

Forgot the name of it, but it is the unsealed road you take from the Otway Fly to the Great Ocean Rd. Actually I think there are a few roads in that region quite similar. Almost made me want an Evo.... almost :D

kew boulavard always good at night, not during the day though to many people. Any one ever go there?

Are your referring to Alexandra avenue area? Or somewhere else?

a friend kept insisting that i should visit the boulevard

and then when i did go there with him, I came accross a white Ford Territory with some big antenaes and blue and red light on the roof

it pulled over, let me through and then sat on my tail for about 1km, before turning off to the side and turning its sirens on

lucky me

lol you know everyone i speak to about that boulevard says yeah there was a cop there, a mobile camera unit etc. as i said i drive down there EVERYDAY and have NEVER seen a cop. weird lol.

i do that drive a lot at night.. there are cops occasionally.

funny that. my friend said that there is never any cops there as well.

might be just my luck for picking the right day and time

speaking of the Yarra blvd there - i drive that rd about 3-4 tmes a week to work and back.

the other night i was driving there with a amte about 4am..and i swear i kept seeing flashes form one of the ouses everytime we went past it. so went back past there to have a look and see if it was a mobile camera or what...but cos it was dark i couldt see anythng. Then when we left *flash* twice again. maybe it wsa a pissed off resident taking photos of cvars flying up there late at night to report to the police?

sop anyone wishing to drive that route be careful.

Out of curiousity 0 if it was a resident claiming cars we 'speeding' up the road at night and she tookphotos of our plates, wat can the police actually do without evidence of us driving dangerously or speeding?? anyone know?

lol you didn't see anyone and have assumed it was a woman...

Without doubt Mountain highway (Enter from the mount dandenong tourist road). The speed limit is 70km/h and its very twisty and windy. Highly recommended. The speed limit is simply stupid, way too fast for the average driver.

    • At least yours have parkour down pat. One of mine will still trip over his own shadow and fall over... He's a special type of cat... Ha ha ha
    • The question then becomes - was there any fluid coming from that hole before you did the rebuild ?    You may not have noticed, of course.   Depending on how you did the rebuild, the possibility has to be considered that somehow (cleaning ?)  fluid entered that hole and is now being 'forced'  out by small movements of the proportioning valve.   From the factory, there's actually a small rubber plug in that hole but with age and under-bonnet heat it's quite common for it to 'go missing'.  That rubber plug is designed to allow the venting process but also to prevent 'stuff' getting to the area (prevent corrosion, etc).   The plug is also not available as a spare part AFAIA. Personally I wouldn't race and buy a new master just yet but keep an eye on the area to see if the 'leak' continues.   If you're concerned about brake fluid damaging nearby paintwork, cable tie a piece of suitable absorbant material over the hole and remove/monitor occasionally.    Operation of the proportioning valve and the brake master itself won't be affected, but also keep an eye on brake fluid level, of course. In terms of a new master, the genuine part is getting expensive, unfortunately.  Amayama is showing AUD900+.   I was searching recently and there's an aftermarket part available from Japan made by 'Parts Assist': https://zenmarket.jp/en/yahoo.aspx?q=BNR32%2bBM50&p=1 Whether it's any good I have no idea, although in my experience Japanese aftermarket stuff is pretty good quality-wise.   The above site allows overseas buyers to purchase stuff more easily from Japan but there are fees and shipping costs, of course.   The original Japanese seller page is here: https://auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/p1197401228 Copper/Nickel is fine but I still prefer bundy tube and it's also cheaper.
