the place we stopped is the famous, spooky gravity hill. You stop on the road, put your car in neutral... and it rolls up the hill. Twighlight zone!

Is this for real or u just pulling my legs...? If it's real I gotta check it out...

To those with autos, make sure you're in neutral, not crawling in drive... LOL

Cheers,

Would love to come but unfortunately my car won't be ready in time...

Should be ready in 3 weeks (waiting for parts from Japan), so Ash, James, Andrew, hurry up and organise one for early May!!!!!

Will be there for sure,

I live in gisborne which is about 10 - 15 min drive from macedon, and i can tell u some of the roads around here are quite nice.

Now which way will heading up (calder i guess) so does somebody wanna give me a call when u guys are getting close to gisborne and i'll join u guys from there?

Or i could meet u at macedon, are we going to the cross? cause i could meet u there.

I hope u guys included the hairpins :O

it will be real - its an optical illusion... the surroundings make it look like the road goes up, but it wll actually be going down - bring a sprit level if you don't belive me :O

on another note - is there any meetups in s.e suburbs for this cruise? if not we should organise one

Baileylsd - we are coming back via the caulder and the cross is one of the last port of calls. So maybe just come to the start meet point on the ring road or else come to our lunch spot at the town of Marmsbery (I think thats the right name! lol)

Ferni - South east meet point is Megamart Car Park on Warrigal Rd. However, I will be cruising up westall rd toward the fwy so if people want to meet out the front of Evolution R or something before cruising up to magamart then Im cool to do that.

Also - for all those SE people NOT wanting to use city link please meet at the ring road Mobil.

Either its an optical illusion or James owns the world's rarest R33 Auto GTR and he had it in drive. I vote for option two with a splashing of chartreuse.

Rianto bring a bottle of water so you can tip it on the road and see which way it runs

Good idea, but if car rolls uphill, so can water flows uphill... defying gravity.

Isn't that the whole idea?

I was told it was optical illusion - the way the tree grows... maybe get a water level from hardware store to prove it :-P

    • Hey keep the ideas coming, I'm always keen on projects! But, problem fixed!  I got a cheapie ozito scope from Bunnings and had a good look in and around the bearing and sensor hole. I couldn't see a smoking gun but the bearing looked a bit strange, especially when comparing with a new one. I thought the cover had come off the bearing magnets.  Sorry for pics of a screen, I didn't have an SD card.     Good thing I had the old one to inspect. So, given I'm like a pit crew with wheel bearings and luckily I had a spare bearing because I f**ked up my parts order, I decided to just smash it out. Got the old one out in about an hour. So much easier when the parts haven't had a chance to rust together yet. 😂 And, well, found the problem.    In the second pic at about the 8 o'clock position, you'll see what I think is the tip of the old sensor.  The new sensor has definitely been rubbing but it's all intact, just a little shiny so I'm hoping it's fine.  The car brakes perfectly now and no errors.  I think the job took about 2.5h in the end. 👍🏻 I really appreciate the help in here as usual. Thanks guys.
    • I was only looking because I saw some drops on the ground but it wasn't alot. Recently had it serviced will ask the mech to confirm. Find it strange that it looks standard though, can see in another photo of a random box 
    • So...not sure if you know if that has always been there or why you went looking. It could be old damage from a clutch explosion, or even just the gearbox got dropped somewhere along the line. Basically, you should seal it up to stop oil and dust getting into the bellhousing, but it doesn't matter too much and is not structural. I'd suggest something like a glob of JB Weld. BTW what gearbox oil are you running, I would guess the breather has been spewing it everywhere.
    • Hey Duncan thanks for your reply. Sorry mate I know the photos are shit.  Took another photo for reference. Seems the casing does have a hole in it looking on the net, fluid seeping out. Added a photo   
    • Very hard to make out what you mean, is it the squarish hole with redline shockproof (probably) under it? Is that pic from on top of the engine with the firewall to the left of pic and engine to the right? Either way, spray the area liberally with degreaser and try again, maybe circle the part you are worried about
