Hi all,

Well for some time now my lovely partner has been asking me for a bigger car than the R31 Wagon that some of you may know and i have always put her of saying "The Skyline is fine..You cannot fault it" anyways.... The other day i found myself a 1992 NH ( i think ) Pajero LWB in astonishing condition for its age with 251XXX kms on board for $3300 with rego and a RWC.. i thought to myself that it was an absolute steal and being on the Bayside so close to the Islands I swiftly bought the car.

On sunday i packed up the brood and the BBQ and went from Kerry ( south of Beaudesert ) to O'rielys the back way up "Duck Creek Rd" and then today went from Boonah to Killarney on "Condamine gorge rd"..

What a Blast!! i think i have found another form of motoring passion.

So as thread states who knows any tracks in SE QLD and who else loves having a bit of a fun in the mud?? Keen to hear :ninja:

you could take a ford focus through half of the glass house mountains...

take a 4x4 to jimna, landcruiser park or mount mee state forest and go nuts...

Thanks guys..Yeah not after Monster truck stuff but dont want dirt roads....Anything that is fun and challenging..i have a "snatchy" and a shovel. keen for fun

driving on sand dunes is illegal

you can drive up to double island point via the beach nd then go inland to tin can bay via a nice little track...

PS> Landcruiser park is broken into 4 sections, main roads (any car can make these tracks), green (soft 4x4's and AWD's), yellow (more serious 4x4's with low range like patrols and land cruisers) and then red tracks (which is for drivers with big nuts or custom built 4b's)...

You can also camp there, make a weekend out of it... Tis loads of fun...

Also they have a bit call the pig pen, its mud holes and water holes, loads of fun to go driving through...

John , Take the Mt Lindsay hwy ,turns to dirt after woodenbong,

camp at Bald rock(huge granite rock -good climb)

then go over to boonoo boonoo national park follow

some supurb fire trails back up to woodenbong (map would be good).

Heaps of fire trails of varying mud surface around woodenbong/urbanville

(just watch out for us wild dirt bikers coming the other way).

Up near Crows Nest Go to Hampton info centre get a map ,

shows heaps of 4wd tracks around the area , 1 good one went

from there come out at the look out (ravensbourne) going through

some cool rainforst.

The back way to spicers gap(past cunnigham's gap) is usally chopped up

which makes it interesting (not a bad walk at the end) Entrance gate can

be hard to spot though.

Upper portals is great picnic spot then take white swamp road up to Queen

Mary Falls.

Woodford has heaps of fire trails and mud holes (again watch 4 crazy D B ) :thumbsup:

See ya gettin muddie one day (shinny side up of course )

you could take a ford focus through half of the glass house mountains...

I dont know what tracks your talking about in the glass house mountains but you havent seen the 'real glass house mountain tracks.Get onto on particular spot that us locals know it as hel hill,no if you can get up that without rolling it then you get appaulse. :D

Saw this thread and never ended up replying.. anyway am now!

Next time we go for a drive to Ormeau I'll let you know.

Like Col said - any of those four wheel drive parks are awesome - you can always not do the crazy stuff!

Some of my adventures:

Fraser 2003

Fraser 2004

Moreton 2005

West Mount Cotton 2005 (Closed now I think)

Inskip 2006

Mount Tamborine 2006 (Wouldn't be able to find this again)

City View 4x4 Park 2007

Inskip 2007

Inskip 2007 again

Straddie 2007

Inskip 2007

Ormeau 2008

Double Island 2008

Burbank 2009

Straddie 2009

Fraser 2009

Freshwater & Rainbow 2009

Ormeau 2009

and now to the USEFUL advice - if you want a good list of possible places to go I can highly recommend this book: Dirty Weekends

I just took my bush basher ford falcon up there and had a ball. There were a ton of 4wd's there so I'm assuming there is some serious tracks there somewhere. But it was fun driving 80's an hour in a car with no traction,esp or abs. Most of the time the car was sideways. Mad FUN :down:)))))

Yeah i have been up there, Is great However i am closer to morteon so if i am going to do beach work i will head over there and have fun, Thanks for all the local ideas though! Will give them a shot..Going to try Spicers on saturday i think then SAU on sunday!!! WooT!

    • @Murray_Calavera iam just considering options 🙂 of course it is very expensive so that why i ask here 🙂  @joshuaho96 I looked at that GCG hybrid(i remember looking at it few weeks before) So this is "that" hybrid where i send them my turbo and they upgrade the inside to Garrett stuff and then they send it back. It cost around 1200-1300 USD which is FAR cheaper than the HKS and it is what iam looking for(i just do not have experience like this...to send something off to "upgrade" ) @tylink720 that is like 150 USD turbo no? 😄 I dont think i have the "ease on my mind" with this kind of turbo. I just put over 7000k USD to "LINK" up my engine...dont want to blow it up with cheap turbo 😄     EDIT: https://www.cj-motor.com/gcg-turbo-charger-for-nissan-rb20det-rb25det-high?srsltid=AfmBOooVeOZ6CZ6r1AIv5m-KPaa6BvudIPJTY8LW78khkd-gQlsaCht9 I looked at this and it seems ok? It is that CGC hybrid and it costs around 1250 USD (with back shipping). Do any of you have experience with this hybrid on NEO turbo? I quickly look thru the forum/web and it seems very good.

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
