Join the SAU Victoria team for a social cruise through the Sherbrook Forest.
Initial meeting point will be Upway IGA carpark.
The cruise will head through Belgrave and on to Gembrook via the spectacular Sherbrook Forest.

Where: IGA Upwey, 62-64 Main St, Upwey VIC 3158
Map: https://goo.gl/maps/17R6emXMEuT71ACo7
When: 8:30am Sunday 29th November

Please keep in mind this is an SAU event. To participate you will need to be an existing SAU member or, sign up on the day for 24 hours for a gold coin donation. This is due to our CAMS affiliation.

I will also take this opportunity to remind everyone, this isn't a race, it's not a rally, it's a cruise, at or below the speed limit.
All details will be passed onto relevant authorities if requested.

Hi all,

I have made a slight boo boo on this one. We (I) have misinterpreted the Covid-19 details and we are not able to run the event on the 22nd. We are now running it on the 29th of November instead. Apologies for the confusion.

But um, the lockdown late was *last* weekend (the 14-15th!)

In any case, this road actually gets better/worth driving on from Gembrook through to Launching Place, then through the Reefton Spur or Mt Donna Buang.

C'mon, get amungst it!

Ok, so to explain; honestly, i have no idea what we can or cannot do in terms of the lockdown. It's been killing me, i feel like the rules are changing every day. So we are just doing this to be 100% sure we don't cop a giant fine. 
Regarding the actual route, you're right, it does get better further on, but I wanted to keep this one small/short as it's my first event that i'm running.
Providing this one goes right, there'll be much bigger, and longer social cruises coming up. :)

      I think the pic in the first post is another car, and post 7 is OP's car with standard arms and swaybar swaybar swaybar. I can't tell what brand the silver coilovers are, and even if I could I don't know whether the spring rate is OK, if you can find a brand on the shocks and numbers on the springs that might help. Also, if you can measure the ride height from centre of your wheel to the guard that will help with advice too as handling suffers if ride height is too low

      In the first photo you posted, the colour of the control arms are the signature colour for Ikeya. Same for the swaybar, signature colour for Whiteline.  I like Hardrace, they also do hardened rubber bushes if your car is mainly a street car.  I like GKTech as well, but they use a lot of rose joints in their stuff so might not be the best choice for everyone.  The system might have been good back in its day, but it's a prehistoric system now. I suspect that most people have removed the HICAS as they want the car to do what they want to do, not what the car wants to do. From what I also understand, it isn't consistent in it's behaviour on track so it's hard to trust the car/know where its absolute limits are for track use.  Having said that, I think the HICAS eliminator kit was the first thing I installed when I bought my car. I don't personally have any experience with the HICAS system on a race track.

      Thanks for the info. Didn’t know I had aftermarket control arms already? Will talk to my garage. What brand would u recommend if I want to play around with my camber more? I would think my camber is around stock level right now or more negative now due to lowering with coilovers. I will be lower her again 1.5 cm to get some more.    also why does everyone like to remove the hicas system? Is it because most don’t work properly anymore or ppl just don’t like them. Mine is functioning as it should be right now.    thanks for the good info

      It looks like you've got Ikeya control arms and an aftermarket sway bar, maybe whiteline?  Or am I just going crazy? lol Unfortunately it won't, but what it will do is look really pretty. That's about all unfortunately.  How much neg camber do you currently have? Generally lowing the car dials in quite a bit of neg camber as it is. If you do go down this path, your best bet is get adjustable arms, toe arms (or preferably a good HICAS elimination kit) and traction rods. With all 3 being adjustable, you'll be able to dial out any bump steer that is introduced by playing with the camber settings.
