Adz and scotsman, you better be in its only about 5 mins from your location's i believe. I should be there, prolly working during the day, but i should be able to get it off. Was up the dandies last night with friends, had a whole lotta fun espically when you run out of brakes on the last two corners just before the lights at the bottom of the hill.

Ps. andrew if you need any help figuring out the way up and down of the hill let me know, i'm up it quite a bit so i know my way around the dandie tourist road.

Ps. andrew if you need any help figuring out the way up and down of the hill let me know, i'm up it quite a bit so i know my way around the dandie tourist road.

should meet up and discuss ideas, i work up in MtD, actually im about to head up there right now, so i knows the roads pretty well...

Brad / Jarrod - I'm fully open to suggestions for this cruise! It was really just a simple plan I had anyways as the area isn't massive.

I was thinking we should try and meet at the base in FGully. And get up the top at 5ish as it will just be getting towards sunset and should look pretty cool. Then head down to Monbulk via the Olinda - Monbulk Rd as that road rocks, then make the way back to FGully. But as I said any other idea's are more than welcome.

But remember - twighlight at the end of June and possibly a decent number of cars so about as bad conditions as you can get so I want to keep things simple and safe for everyone. Its more of a meet-up than a typical SAU cruise this one.

Also - it seems a few people are keen for a social drink too. Any suggestions? In town somewhere or say chapel st? Be good to either go somewhere that will get better as the night goes on but is still fun to start - or somewhere thats close to the action for later.

Yeah, agreed, i just had to drive up there and back and well... its damn foggy, wet and the roads are covered in crud.

I basically take the route you described almost every 2nd day, the other option is the moutain hwy and back thru olinda-monbulk rd.

could be some good photo ops at skyhigh thou?

*glance at ns2500*

but as you said pretty bad conditions atm

If the weather is sh!t im not going on the cruise. Definitely up for a social meet though... so I can meet the rest of you monkeys :D

Any ideas where to go? I vote for Crown coz it's close to home for me :(

:.

Has the venue for the social meet up been decided yet?

I'm always down to go somewhere that serves good food... I suggest we head to the Crown Pub!

Good priced meals, full licensed bar.. not to mention the occasional stunning chicks wandering around :rofl:

Oh Did I mention I live 5 mins from Crown? :( haha

    • 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
