Would be nice to cruise with fellow V owners. Are there any groups organised who run cruises just for us V drivers?

Super keen for a drive, whether it be to the sunny coast or gold coast or out west and back. Meet and greet, talk mods, eat some food?

Cheers.

its been a fair while we had a cruise.....had about 3 V35 cruises organised so far by Victor and little bit of support from myself....there hasnt been one after victor sold his car about 4months back....so i would be keen and maybe a few others too like sheldon, cobey, joshua,etc.....lets c how the response is....count me in.....

I have to drive a sizeable distance to these events, but I generally try to make it :) coming off my P plates in August and will most likely be upgrading to a big boys car so it would be nice to do one last V cruise.

I'd be up for a cruise, but I need to know dates as well as my V is in the shop getting a lot of work done. I have no idea how long it's going to take. I'm getting a turbo installed, service, coil overs, front and rear sway bars, lights fixed, Front belt replaced....... The list goes on.

Hey guys, August, weekend of the 18th/19th. I understand that saturdays suit a lot more people. Cruise down to Tweed Heads. Will provide more details once I get some interest. Have done this run and gone down to Tweed first then on to Byron, mostly highway driving, which can be a nice drive. Let me know.

    • Before all the EFR fan boys come in, have a look at: https://www.garrettmotion.com/racing-and-performance/performance-catalog/turbo/g-series-ii-g30-825-58mm/ It also comes in a T4 1.06 divided housing. I would dare say if you want response & also decent power, this thing would chop.   AND apologies, just re-read your post, you've already bought the turbo... whatever you do, make sure you stick with divided housing and proper twin scroll manifold.
    • People have got to stop doing that. ShatGPT is not a search engine. It is a hallucination factory.   I also would recommend the 1.05. The .83 will "work" for you , in that it will be more responsive, but I think you'll find that it won't be anywhere near as good running it out to 8000rpm as the big housing will be.
    • Decided for the first time ever I would tow my car TO the track day on the same working theory as bringing tools and spares "if I have it I wont need it, but if I leave it behind i will 100% need it" all setup and ready to go out and try these A050 for the first time First session showed I needed to stiffen up the dampers a touch but still managed a few 1:21's without much effort. things were looking good. Came in a dropped the tyres down  to 26/28 as they had gotten to 35/33C from 22C cold The first lap of session two I managed to drop into 1:20's. Then in the second lap into the second session. Coming into T3 and I suddenly lost brake pedal followed by some huge rear end vibrations and scraping sounds. Got it back into the pits after session ended and found this. in the attached video, all of the wobble is in the hub its self, wheel is mint, and bearing feels tight. lKXLqpd - Imgur.mp4   Deciding it was a bent spindle I tried to find bearing/hub assembly locally but was unsuccessful so it was loaded back onto the trailer i luckily brought it on to drag it back home  
    • 1.05 you’ve gotta let it breath 
    • You have to continuously fill it to avoid dry running. Personally the transmissions I've serviced have never been bad enough to justify doing this because it is definitely a pretty complicated and somewhat risky procedure compared to simply draining the pan, measuring what came out, then refilling with the exact same amount.
