*Updated Date* Lockdown Release Cruise 29th Nov 2020 Belgrave - Gembrook


Recommended Posts

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. :)

    • (it is a brand new ported mellings pump) I suspect the lack of pressure is due to the leak. It was *not* that low in other logs of oil pressure in the past. It wasn't that hot either, but not far off.
    • Would a Mellings oil pump be a viable option  From my time with a LS, and talking to tuners and LS specialists, the "weak" OEM oil pump is one of the first things they recommend to swap out if I was going to give the engine any high RPM I opted for a Mellings high volume, with the high pressure springs and I never had a issue with it Cost wise they are not expensive in the scheme of things 
    • Just bought a 2002 Stagea 250tRS VR-X Four AERO VQ25DET and spent the last two weekends cleaning and detailing it.. still have to do the wheels and the engine bay but the rest of it came up nice. Imported 2011 to S.A. and I'm the third owner since it was imported. I met the guy who brought it over, he went to Japan and picked out the car, bought it and ordered the wheels. He also gave me a list of stuff he did to the car with receipts. Coil overs (I have the original springs), 3" exhaust from the dump pipe back no cat, Custom dump pipe,(I have the original exhaust), Plenum spacer, 18" custom Work XSA wheels (need restoring, I've made a start..), Shift kit put through the 5 speed tiptronic auto, TV and menus/screens changed to english, Australian DTV tuner installed in rear. I've just had four new discs and new pads as well as all the fluids including the brake fluid replaced. I have all the receipts for the last 15 years and the import papers in a nice folder. Car looks great, goes like hell but fuel economy is not a thing lol.. pics next..
    • I ended up in this rut again lol, and used a shit ton of filler. One thing I can't understand is, even after using a big long block and going in long X pattern strokes, I always end up at bare metal again with no filler, and my repair started at one end of the door and now I've chased my tail to almost the other end of the door. I was thinking of hitting the panel with a hammer where it might be a high spot and making everything low then filling it, I did this on a small section on my other door by mistake and I think I fixed it lol. Is this a bad idea? The other thing is with guidecoat, whether it's the powder or spray, after I sand all the guide coat off, it doesn't reveal anything for me in terms of high spots and low spots and makes it especially hard when it's bare metal (at least in powdered form), am I doing something wrong here, or likely a high spot I keep going over and creating valleys? Lastly, stupid question but, is it possible that after sanding if I only sand over the filler area where I know to be a dent that it's impossible for me to dig into that dent? Unless there are other problems which I missed.
