Newcastle/central Coast Cruise To Broke And Back! 2/12/12


Recommended Posts

Hey all!

Its our 3rd cruise and this time were going broke!

Martin and I sused out the route today and we both agree the road is better then Old Pac! (much of the same just heaps longer fun bits)

The roads are a mixture of everything you could ask for in the country, wide open roads, tight hair pins, bumps, turns, sweeping bends, old bridges (low lip safe) and great scenery for passengers haha.

Date: 2/12/12

Meet time: 9:00

Leave time: 9:30~

Lunch time: 1130~

Finish time: 1:30~

If your running late and dont have anyones number pm me and ill get the email and reply.

The meeting point for everyone will be in one spot as there isnt any good spots to meet on the outskirts of newcastle and central coast so we will all meet here:/

Directly west of toronto, bit out of the way of people i know but atleast there will be no confusion on the day as its just off the freeway and we will have people coming from sydney, all along the coast, newcastle, maitland, cessnock, EVERYWHERE!

Oh and dont worry south people because the cruise finishes at your door step.

theres a lot parking as shown here where to park, try and get right up the back as we dont want to get in the way of anyone:

From here we will follow the route shown on the map below, the only thing close to traffic will be going through cessnock where we will be patient and give way to EVERYONE.

its a small town and no one cares about your BOVs, straight pipes or gates (hahah) except for us! so save it for the country and be as quiet as you can as respect for members for the public!! (and to keep bad attention of us!!)

From broke "C" to the end of our cruise is an AWESOME ROAD!! the drive to cessnock is a nice cruisy hwy with nice scenery and a few twisties in the middle.

the reason for our detour up the top of the map is to avoid coilover busting bumps that are the worst ive ever seen, this detour avoids all those so no doors fall off our cars!!!

We will be stopping for lunch at wollombi pub "D" who told us they can handle 40 people coming in, ill call them just to be sure they put more staff on when we get closer to the day.

Martin spotted the 400g steak for 23 bucks on the menu!

A photo spot has been chosen infront of a open meadow with a bit of mountain behind it that all the photo nuts will froth over, a passing local said there is barely any traffic so we should have time to park on a slight angle on the side of the road and get some nice shots :)

After that we will go further south which involves a few hair pins and then opens up to a 100 zone (which i could barely maintain) and to our end location for a drink at a cafe if needed and we split from there :action-smiley-069:

Ofcoarse on this cruise we will be sticking to the speed limit as we have done on our other ones, i have just driven this and the speed limit is more then enough fast enough to enjoy.

Remember this is a cruise not a race, race day is at wakefield in nov,

We WILL:

Give way to everyone and everything!

Stick to the speed limit

NOT hoon

NOT be loud and stupid, ESPECIALLY in towns (low rpm!)

Have a great day like on our other cruises :wub:

ANY CAR IS WELCOME, ANY PERSON IS WELCOME, AS LONG AS YOU ARE BEHAVED AND HAVE THE RIGHT ATTITUDE!!!!

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
