If you do it Friday night how about Kinglake -> Healsville -> ?

Did a cruise with a mate today, took badgercreek rd from Kinglake to Healsville then went about half way up the black spur. Plenty of twisties and 80-100Km speed limit through most of it, was wicked fun.

Can't make the meet if it's this Friday but if it's next week, then I should be in ;)

ok dandy nissan just told me im booked in the 19th. so im out till then fellas!

we should do something on a sunday, have a meet up then a cruise down to a go kart track or some stuff. have a bit of a legal race!

Aight guys change of plans

When:14/09/2012 [next friday night]

Meeting place: Kings Complex Entertainment [ 366 Boundary Road Dingley Village VIC 3172 ]

Time: 10:00pm for a 10:30 departure

Destination: Great Ocean Road or Philip Island

choose which one you guys want and majority wins :]

LOL

Have you done the maths on this at all?

Torquay is the start of the GOR.

Lorne would be the destination.

Dingley Village -> Torquay = 1h45m

Torquay -> Lorne = 45m

Lorne -> Torquay = 45m

Torquay -> Dingley Village = 1h45m

Departure time: 10:30pm

Return time: 3:30am

Actual Return Time: Daylight and the rest of your weekend is gone.

Even if you've got a perfect run of traffic: Congratulations! You've got a very late, very boring cruise with no scenery because its dark. If you want hills, there are heaps on this side of the city.

And Phillip Island, why? Its boring highway down the M1 and M420. Then you get there and see nothing. Phillip Island is a daytime cruise destination, with beaches and shops.

I could go on, but at this point even my fingers don't want to type anymore in response to this cruise.

good point

that's one of the reasons I had originally set it up for friday during the day but like what you said:

"Horrible cruise is Horrible."

lol @ 10:30am Friday, most people work you know ;)

so neither of those times suits you....there's not much I can really do about it then

places like Healsville, Kingslake,arthurs seat, mt dandenong, and mt donna buang are the very popular ones for cruises.

just wanting something different plain and simple

otherwise you guys can suggest where to go

    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
