the weather wasn't the best, but it certainly made for an interesting weekend!

we started the day with a run through the black spur and it's usual flinders st 5pm traffic jam, followed by a quick lunch at the Marysville bakery

after this we headed off towards mt buller and the weather decided to take a turn.

driving up the mountain with the roads completely soaked made for an interesting yet amazingly fun drive!

upon arriving at the lodge we all started to attack the ample supply of alcohol we had brought with us, and out came the nerf guns!

had some bread/dips/chips etc @ around 5pm and dinner @ 7:30 and i think we went to bed sometime around 3am?

anyway, had a great time playing drunk jenga and nerf wars!

big thanks to all for helping with the cleanup this year! it really makes all the difference!

also a huge thanx to merowyn!

I had a absolute ball and would like to say thanx to all that attended and helped make it such an awesome weekend!

cant wait for the photo's !

see you all next year :ermm:

great food as always! great drive!

Massive Thanks to Ham and Merowyn! next time Mel you can just kick back and relax, you were always cleaning should trade that sponge for a beer!

photo's shortly!

so tell me more about the trip home?

we had the crap scattered all over the mountain when we left, hit a few branches and rocks but no damage... but after brunch at the bottom of the hill it was smooth cruising all the way down the hume

i think this may turn into we got reamed thread we all got pulled over by 2 bike cops just out of yarra glen for the usual licence and rwc checks..they had a very quick look at my car and i was out of there(lucky volvo driver)...caught up with samatrix down the road and said there was a few unhappy faces with the police still he was lucky got held up through the spur..

Any way thanks hamish for the weekend and the indoor bbq was good to meet a few more people from sau vic and the nurf guns supplied hours of entertainment just wished that bloody rain and wind held off for more than 5 minutes

will be back again next year and looking forward to a few of the photos

Thanks you Hamish for organising the cruise, although we didn't get any runs on the mountain, it turned out to be a different type of awesome fun at the lodge :ermm:

And also thanks for everyone that helped clean up throughout the trip :huh:

charles loved getting woken up by a nurf gun then cleaning duties...and everyone forget that birds was still there and we all left without him except T.J

I blocked all 20 or so shots from you guys with my blanket, then afterwards, Dave decided to reload and shot me in the nose at point blank range lol

By the way, really want to say thank you to Charles for the ride and to Hamish and Merowyn for the organisation of the weekend.

It's all good :huh: Thanks for keeping me company for the trip! :ermm:

And here's a screenshot of my weather app on my iphone, we were dealing with 2.8 degrees:

    • I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.
    • Ahhhh... If you were putting 12V to the led in there, that's likely made it very unhappy. Chances are how you put power, was 12V across an LED that's meant to only have about 20mA through it at peak, and a forward voltage of about 1.8 to 2.4 volts. That circuit is likely only a 3V3 circuit, and will have a resistor in series with the led too. That's my guesstimate on that light, without having touched one.
    • Another vote for installing them and see how you go.  I mean, you already own them, why would you not fit them? 
    • I have had too many of those over the years, my cars have a toolkit or at minimum a cheapy multi tool thing because its too easy to be snookered by some stupid plastic clip that stops you checking the battery terminal isn't loose.
    • Basically, if there is a part# on the nissan catalogue, it is a genuine part. There is a thing called "new old stock" which is stuff made years ago but never sold (or landfilled), but it is super hit and miss what you can buy. Other than some expensive Nismo stuff there is nothing new being made that suits these cars. The only time to be a little careful is (mostly in the US I think, but maybe Japan too), Nissan started rebranding some cheap crap maintenance parts like oil filters as "Pitworks"; stay away from them, if you are buying cheap just buy whatever the local car parts shop carries The three part numbers have an explanation on Amayama: 0V005 is auto, base style 0V015 is manual 0V505 is auto, hectic momo branded ones, maximum F&F points there!
