Don't forget to pick up this little lost lamb on the way to the gardens folks!

I should also mention that this is not a track day so speed limits apply. Being a public holiday cops will be out in force so keep it under control.

As you come into Geelong pull into Macca's and we will meet you there, then continue to the Geelong waterfront botanical gardens.  I don't know were that is either, but nothing a Melways can't fix :P .

As long as your there Arrowz.....

We'll see ya on the way through to the gardens.

ok easties.. .we gonna meet up at the Ring Road maccas with everybody? because i'd prefer to skip that part if i can as its a bit out of the way.

From what i remember i just get on at Kings Way and straight down the westgate freeway.. Ring road would just be extra for me.

I'd be happy just to meet at Geelong at the botantical gardens. Is that still a goer for you interstate people?

Even if food is more expensive down there, there will be supermarkets and crap (from what i remember!) where we can buy meat, bread, tomato sauce (vital stuff), plastic plates, etc. Its not like in the middle of the bush :D

predator666....

i say you eastern guys could meet where we are picking up Silver Arrowz... just outside of Geelong

that way we go through Geelong as a group.

the lights will split us a fair bit (just they way they are) but that's everywhere.

Will look good for the first 10 km's with it being 3-4 lanes wide :D

APOLLO BAY

There are about 3 supermarkets down there from memory...

plus all the usual take-away's... etc. etc.

i might actually go the fish n' chips as the locally down there get's all the fish fresh of the fishing fleet down there, can't beat quality.

But see on the day. Not too phased

;):);) I may be getting my 'line back tempararily for the w/e!!! :D :D :D

Westsiders we meet at ring road macca's/mobile, then cruise at a legal speed to geelong and meet up with Silver-Arrowz and his interstate buddies, then continue to the gardens.

Should be great!!

See ya then

you go passed the outbound one and take the next exit ~ [about 500m] fitzgerald road, do a u-turn under the bridge and get back on the inbound side...its the only way thats worth doing from where we comin from...

    • Reasonably hard, although I haven't run it with the new Endless setup yet. The old brakes were F50's on 335mm rotors and the car did a 1:40.6 at Phillip Island which is a reasonable time, I'm seeing high 600s on the temperature paint. A guy I know ran the Endless fluid at WTAC without issues and he was doing 1:33's I think (Evo) with a 355/332 setup. I don't get out to the track as much as I'd like but we put the car on the hoist and spanner check every bolt and re-paint mark everything, bleed the brakes, change the fuel, check the coolant system and re-bleed blah blah blah before every event. Motorsport is expensive, RB's are expensive so a couple of hours before an event is time well spent. It's also a net time saving because if you can keep your RB from self destructing it saves you time in the long term!
    • Welcome Alice......hope you have a bit more luck from here on! What was done in the build?  
    • Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!
    • Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!
    • I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
