Yeah last night fuel was about 6c/ltr cheaper in yeppoon than it was in rocky.

Did a lap around yeppoon last night, saw nothing, and on my way home did a "lap" around the circut in rocky and there was nothing too....... meh I'm not really into the lapping thing anyway :domokun:

its actually cheaper up here for ultimate, as i found out driving back on tuesday ....

33SOM are there many imports or skylines in bilo?

There a fair few for the size of the place.. But no cruises etc lol

Id go to rocky for a cruise one day but the roads a lil... umm not good..

Yeah I thought I'd raise my stagea before I got here, thank god I did, but now am seriously thinking of raising it futher, other than the main roads here in rocky, all of them suck dogs balls and are rougher than being a prodistant and walking into a catholic pub in northern ireland!

I lived on a farm near Emerald for many years and went to highschool there, left in 2003... own a black R34 GTT which was up there around easter... it's still ford/holden/shitbox 4cyl central... didn't see any nice imports, just a beat-up r32 and rough-sounding 180 spring to mind. Almost lost the license floating at 150 out the back of Rolleston, slowed for a rise and passed a copper at a tick under 120 :|

Oh, and in regards to the first few pages (from many moons ago) I too remember the chameleon piles of shit - forgotten the smash repairs guy who had the gold rodeo and chenara's vs commodore... reminds me of the quality of the lapping scene :yes:

Yeah i didn't think it was that bad, only some of the ghetto streets are that bad. Actually i was shocked hopw bad the M1 is in places when i was in brisbane last week. The Road from Yeppoon to Rocky is much better.

Yeah it is a nice road, wonder when they will make it split all the way?

About the rough roads in rocky, I find that anything but the highway or Yamba/Musgrave/Queen Elizabeth/Fitzroy street is just shat, bumpy, uneven, potholes, and just generally crap to drive on, guess it might be the stiff setup on the stag, but yeah I dont go the "back" way round town, even if it was shorter, it ends up being longer because I have to slow down ~40kph to feel safe.....

Eventually they play dot to dot with yeppoon road and join all the over taking lanes. Their always extending and adding new passing lanes and overtaking lanes.

yeah true about rocky i guess, I drive a work car most of the time so maybe i don't notice it as much. Glenmore road is horrible (i assume thats the back road our refering too).

Yeah Farm Rd sucks dogs balls too!!

Soon I'll be putting 15" rims, so having a tyre that actually has a bit of tyrewall should cushin the bumps a bit, but still going to raise it a bit more, maybe another inch or so, and change the dampening to soften the ride, turn it back into a boat :D

    • KYBs are typically twin tube, putting them in the lower tier of desireability. Do you just want to replace worn out ones for the lowest cost? I mean, you wouldn't just replace one end of a car, if the rears are a similar age to the fronts, then they are probably nowhere near what they should be, and likely won't be great against brand new fronts. So, to spend ~$800 on 2nd tier dampers, when you could get a decent set of MCA coilovers for <$4k.....? As to the strut tops. 1st up, the Sparesbox site specifically tells you that they are not correct for an R33. Beyond that, why do you think you need them?
    • That's not very Toyota of the Toyota!
    • Bringing an old thread back to life Looking to put some new front shocks in the r33Gtst and the KYB still look ok for a road car. Unless there are any other options aroind that price $200 a shock?  I’d like to replace the strut tops also, is this the correct KYB no. For the strut top, KSM7124?  https://www.sparesbox.com.au/products/kyb-strut-top-mount-ksm7124?srsltid=AfmBOoq-HDru8wSlLnQrhU9gCw_uYdKg8gUQzONY-EQOdnI5iXOWEUjY 341287 appears to be the front KYB shocks part no.  thanks all   
    • LandCruiser used to get a fluid flush every 12 to 18 months.   Only because it was about that often the electric motor on the master for brake assist kept dieing and needing to come off.
