Just got home from this one, was an awesome day I really enjoyed it. Mt Mee was nice and the west end of Mt Nebo/Mt Glorious road was way tighter then I expected, really really enjoyed Mt Nebo road. farks me how people in cars can speed through there I thought doing 80 was pretty fun! and thats the speed limit.

really glad i did the drive now, found some no limit roads out just east of Kilcoy too.

Yeah... I've been out on that road, and lets just say the posted speed limit was ignored, and I was quite scared. 80k is good up there.

if u have another weekend free, there's some great roads in behind gold coast, head toward "the natural bridge" (GPS it) then back onto the M1 via mount tambourine. Not much traffic and great scenery

+1 for thats ^^^

Great view and one hell of a drive without even speeding :sick: i just love to appreciate the sound of my wastegate opening as i leave every corner, :)

Try Binna Burra nice drive and you can have something to eat there and look straight down into the valey and int the Hinze dam then head down beechmont road towards nerang and head right down murwillumbah road to the natural bridge (make sure you do the short walk :( GREAT) then follow on till you cross into NSW and head back on the M1.. Great drive just have to watch the wildlife lol but great even in any car..

Or for something to get your oil temp up and heart racing (and thats without speeding to would you belive) try heeding into canungra and up tamborine Mountain Road.. Bit of a goat track and only one lane with stop lights in one bit but good fun then you could stop at one of the wineries enjoy the view and the head down the back of the mountain and pop out near Movie World or head down the back way..

Well just my 2 cents but well worth alook through the UBD or GPS..

Drive Safe All.. :sick:

try a trip to the Border Ranges.. out to Beaudesert >>>> Rathdowney>>>> Kyogle [via Lions Road]. once at Kyogle, turn left [east] out to the coast, then return up the coast, or turn right [west] and return to Brizzy via Mt Lindsay Hwy. this is a great trip for Photography with Mt Warning or Mt Barney, the Border Loop railway tunnel [on Lions Rd] and beautiful Running Creek, which you will cross a dozen times or so as you follow the valley floor; pretty cool, especially this time of the year with all the rain we have had. you would need a full day to do do this trip; well worth the fuel though!.

Did the Lions road and the bellbird yesterday. always an awesome drive.thinkin about a look at queen mary today. Too many sunday drivers during the hols tho. The drive around moogerah dam is another hottie. Not very long but some of the best shit.

    • I like it when the counter chick leads you out the back into the racks and says "have a grub around in here and see if you can find what you need. I'll be back in a few minutes. Just left me in front of a massive motorised shelving system and 2-3 million fasteners, so I could find a peculiar SS shoulder bolt with cap head. Gotta love country towns.
    • I used this https://osgiken.com.au/product/os-giken-os-250r-lsd-gear-oil-80w250-1-litre/   shut my nismo 1.5 pro up by heaps…. Not silent though. Gives the car character and personality. It ain’t a carolla. If you want silent, put a quaife in it.
    • It's about the same time for me from Bunnings, or the Fasteners. My big push away from takeaway food, and gluten in general keeps me away from the Bunnings Snags too! Weather up here, I've been out for two walks today in the beautiful sunshine. Had a few little drizzles, and some wind, that honestly, a tin of beans and I could compete on how harsh she blows Thankfully, being this bit inland, we're not getting anything much really. Will probably pick up a bit more when/if Cyclone Alfie decides to come ashore. A few areas in the GC though, and south into NSW are really getting smashed though! Right now, I'm just annoyed Alfie hasn't hit, as I'm not allowed to crack into the BBQ foods like the bacon and eggs until the Cyclone hits "In case we lose power"...
    • I love fastener joints, the price difference between them and joints like Bunnings or Super Cheap is amazing, and they either have exactly what you want, or they can get it to quick They have even given me some for free when I only needed a couple of specific size In saying this, I have paid premium for fasteners from Bunnings if they have the sizes I need, but only for convenience really, as my local is only 10 minutes away, the Sushi joint near them is also a consideration  How's the weather Matt? Stay safe mate
    • Wideband is worth setting up if only for tuning purposes. I would not mess with the ignition system unless there's a misfire. HKS crank trigger is popular out here for the relatively easily sourced Denso crank sensor, not a bad idea to install as well regardless of power level on a standalone. Boost leak test is worth thinking about. Oil pressure sensor tied to a fuel cut isn't a bad idea either. Getting the tune figured out is a good idea. Without putting eyes on it and getting under it there's no way for us to tell you exactly what it needs but most likely you're down to the last 10% that will make a big, big difference in how happy you are with the car.
