Jonny_r35 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Ahhh welcome to the wasteland. Have to have another cruise soon when the weather is a bit more promising. He was killed in the truck or by a truck? Yeah not great weather for cruising, we should do Kinglake and surrounds sometime? He was driving a truck and left the road.

Birds Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Yeah not great weather for cruising, we should do Kinglake and surrounds sometime? He was driving a truck and left the road. Some good routes up there, I'd be up for it. However, of recent it's a known hotspot for the popo / yellow sticker people...so the more modified of us might not be so keen. Will have a chat with Tony and see what we can do.

alr33x Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Sad shit that, that you can be minding your own business without a worry in the world and in the next 10 seconds you're dead through no actions of your own. These are the thoughts that bikelinesaustralia put up with everytime we ride. That's what I said! Truck driver probably won't get anything either So sad Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/379859-vic-wasteland-thread/page/1153/#findComment-6500697 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rekin Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Current brake set up is F242/Rdrums right. Should me buy brakes from vtec that are F262/R239 that'll be $500. Or wait out for Type R F282/R262 that will be 5lug (means have to buy new wheels/tyres) and would cost $1k for the brakes alone. I wont be tracking this thing as of yet, but it'll be nice to get rid of the drums. Do some deca's ect. Leaning towards the F262/R239 4x100. Which I can go pick up right nao. take a lesson from all the old skyline owners here. Dont spend money on parts you dont need, Get out on the track/deca first and then decide what needs to be done. Everyone falls into the trap of building track cars for a hypothetical track day sometime in the future. Get out there now, find the limits with current setup, then replace to push the limit further.

blah_blah Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Yeah not great weather for cruising, we should do Kinglake and surrounds sometime? He was driving a truck and left the road. Yup have a few guys asking when the next one is. Will have to do one again, unfortunately got Winton & Haunted Hills coming up over the next 2 months, so just getting my car prepped for that.
