Went for a drive up to skyhigh tonight only to be greeted by a huge locked gate and signs stating entry fees. I haven't been up there for years but I remember last time I was there it was fairly early in the morning and never having to pay an entry fee, when did it all change??

and does anyone know any good alternatives?

It changed like 2 years ago dude :wave: hehe

Probably even longer now i think about it.

Macedon is a good alternative, some good views, but its out west, so if your heading Sky High its probably miles from you.

What are you after exactly?

Well haven't been up there since I worked at qantas so it would be 2.5yrs+ since I been there. Nah i'm in Mill Park so probally about half way between the two.

Just somewhere with good views or a good place to take a girl. And no not for sex I have a house for that ;)

im glad they fixed it up, it was looking like one hell of a shithole. syringe boxes in toilets, massive cracks on the building and so on

i think its like $4 or something to get in during the day, this is to maintain it.

they are making a hedge maze or something up there i think.

Its worth paying to go there. I'm happy to know that the money is being spent almost immediately on constant maintenence. Yeah, theres a hedge maze in progress, and its all been landscaped in stuff. :laugh:

      I am currently going this route. I am curious how much horse power you put behind the cut bell housing? Collins was telling me I am going to crack it and bluh bluh bluh. Because I didn’t buy the custom fly wheel from him. I am looking for somewhere around like 500 hp

      Thanks @PranK for the updated member status, much appreciated! 👍🏼 Now, about those pics… Unfortunately I could only find ones that I took in the dark. I was soon to discover that underneath it wasn’t in the best shape, but it was mine and that’s all I cared about at the time 😆

      A little PU bush story

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Oh, and only having done this task yesterday, I've now driven the car ~60km since, and while it is hard to avoid placebo effect and confirmation bias, I reckon that some annoyances I had with the way the car has been behaving have improved. Which....kinda makes sense, I guess. If the bushes were really stiff and resisting rotation, they would have been contributing to the effective wheel rate. And if it was more so on one side (which it was, because one side was worse than the other) then.... you might imagine that the additional rate would be asymmetric, and potentially even different between compression and rebound. And so... the car has been twitchy at higher speeds - like freeway on ramps. It really shouldn't be. The wheel alignment is good and there are no (other) known problems elsewhere in the suspension. But at 90-100 on a long sweeping ramp, tiny steering wheel motions would make it feel like it wanted to rear steer. Quite nervous. At lower speeds it would heave about in a manner that it didn't use to. Didn't want to put power down, etc etc. Now...seems to behave better. Am going to have to concentrate on the various corners where it has exhibited weirdness, on the rare occasions when I can get a decent run at them without Methanial getting in the way in his D-Max/Ranger/LDV Van/etc.
