Just curious if theres any intention to be a putty road cruise again this year? Came along last year with Aurora and Shell and was awesome :rofl: (until we hit a wombat and destroyed a brand new HKS FMIC on the way home... :P)

From memory it was around this time last year it was held.

You could do it twice... or drive down and meet us, and cruise back to lunch, as most people usually go their own way after lunch...

But to answer your question... Yes we are going to be doing it again this year... Date is tentativly set for 17th September. (Saturday)

Nik you should bring your car this time...it's more fun being a driver than a passenger!  :)

I intend to, it was broken last year which is why I couldnt bring it. You going to come again Shell? Might try get a few of the other guys up from Canberra too.

i went down the putty at 4am one day, it was unreal....no farmers or trucks mosying along.... could see the headlights around the corners if someone was coming... and it was very very cold that morning... made for a very spirited and tyre shredding adventure.

d-d... monkeykplunk and i are thinking of doing a putty cruise in august sometime champ.

also anyone that doesnt know about the putty... get the new speed, it has a review in it. it also mentions the cops in singleton, they are shocking.

cheers

Putty road > take this at speed and it will certainly show you the benefits of an IRS, low profile and wide tyres.

Very windy (pronounced wyndy)... it's alot more than just that.

It does have a few nice long straight stretches as well.

I am even thinking an over night option... which you canberrians might be interested in! :P

Yep, was talking to Ewen (Aurora) about it the other day. I think our plan is head up on the Friday afternoon, stay at Windsor on Friday night (we did that last year), cruise Saturday and stay with you guys up the other end Saturday night, head back home on Sunday :P

yeah Nik I'll be going again most probably!

definately stay the night before again, I'll have to see about the night after...although it's such a long crap drive home after the cruise...hmm could be a good plan..

should i book you the stinky room again? haha

Excellent... yeah, if im driving ill definately be staying Saturday night, wasnt a big fan of the drive home straight after the cruise.

To be blunt, that room was fu**ed :D Haha (*stops whinging*) but yeah, staying there again should be sweet, was nice and close to the shops and not too far into the city so im all for it :P

    • 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! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
