Hey guys and gals!

Well, since SAU:New South Wales is going to be down in Canberra over August 20th and 21st for an MDTC day and then our social dinner, we figure we might as well chuck a cruise into the mix and make a proper weekend of it! So I introduce to you, our SAU:NSW 21st of August Social Cruise!

***Please note change of plans due to numbers of attendance and a crazy truck blockade that may have interrupted plans!!***

Event: SAUNSW 21st of August Social Cruise

Location:

From: SDMA Hill Climb Track, Sutton Road NSW (just out of Canberra)

To: Various sightseeing destinations around Canberra

Date: 21st of August 2011

Time:10:30AM SDMA Hill Climb Track, Sutton Road NSW

Approx Length: 3 Hours

What is it: A family friendly SAU NSW Cruise!

Cost:What ever you pick off the menu for lunch!

Overview:

Meet at the local hill climb track - I'll be one of the short blonde chicks with a white 32 GTR :)

Cans of drink and food like bacon and egg rolls, sausages etc available at the hill climb.

From there since Eric will have his video equipment on board we plan to do some sightseeing to check out what is around in the nation's capital!

Possible destinations on this cruise will be:

Air Disaster Memorial

Mt Ainslie

Black Mountain (Telstra Tower)

Red Hill Lookout

Parliament House

Art Gallery (several sites along the water for great photos)

Almost all of these places have cafes and good places to eat so that can be TBD on the day depending on how we all feel!

FYI, I'm pretty sure the section of the route immediately to the left of the word 'currawang' on the map is dirt, not terrible if it has been graded recently but can get quite bad at times. The road through Lake Bathurst past Wakefield isn't bad but will make the route longer...

I have an alternative, it's a bit more highway but apparently the bit up past Lake Bathurst isn't a bad drive!

Estimated time on this one is a little shorter at 2 hours 20 minutes.

Sorry for the mix up folks! Matt tell me what you think of this one!

    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
