So after many topics about Perth cruises for us, nothing ever happened and nothing got planned so this is the thread that will get things into motion. (hopefully)

Im just asking a few questions first are we interested in a doing a cruise up to the hills or York, Toodyay or south with a stop somewhere for a bite to eat (something like our last adventures)or are you wanting to have a social get together without the cruise instead?

Dates i was looking at would be around Sat/Sun Weekend 25-26th October or Sat/Sund Weekend 8-9th November. This would give plenty of time to organise, sort and book if need be etc.

throw your ideas etc in here and lets organise to have the next meet :D

Cheers

too many weddings and interstate trips for me to commit to October but November would be sweet!

I am up for anything, but a small cruise combined with a social get together at the end would be my preference. Obviously something at least a little kid friendly would be good, coz if I wanted to hoon about with tools then there are plenty of other options available.

South would be good too - maybe dwellingup or similar? Or, if people are up for an adventure maybe even a picnic at somewhere like Logue Brook Dam.

I would be up for a cruise in november as october is full of wedding as well for me also doing the engine swap.

I know an awesome cruise route down south, takes a while but is sweet. For you perth guys allow a full day.

Basically meet here in bunbury at BP australaind (huge carpark and last chance to fill up on BP98) then go to bridgetown via collie, in bridgetown there's a place to stop for those of us with kids, stretch get something to nibble etc (there's a great lolly shop)

Then from bridgetown through to Nannup (brockman highway, awesome road bit bumpy and single lane sometimes but worth it, the idiots stay at home for this one).

Then Nannup to Balignup, at the end of the road as you come into Balignup there is an awesome tavern with really good food and not bad prices, and a play ground for the kids.

Then from Balignup you go back through donnybrook to bunbury or you can go through to Busselton. So basically at nannup everyone makes there own way home.

We have done this one before and if you leave early in the morning you make the tavern by lunch.

I have the map route at work i will try and get it 2moro.

Just an idea.

how in the hell did you manage to leave donelly river off there?

Great route, but the road from brigetown to donelly river is an absolute cracker IMO

Other than that, I can def vouch for this route.

i'd come along but that weekend is no good for me. family stuff on..

dates arent confirmed at all as of yet...trying to figure out if October or Nov suit....looks like November is working at this stage...???

Ok i'll get the map route 2moro and see if we can incorporate it in??

i havent organised anything myself as the car will be undergoing work in a couple of weeks and trying to get this yellow sticker off, i dont know how long the conversion will take me but should be right for mid to late november, i can always bring the gto if the stagea aint going anyway.

Mid to late Nov gonna be the best for me to.

I have the map route now from work. Not gonna post it up coz there could be people watching :(

if anyone wants it i can send it to them and we can think bout it, just an idea.

    • My hold point for future mods is that I want a OEM detachable hard top first, but, finding one is a pain, MX5 Mania are looking for one for me, but, as hens teeth are more common, finding one in Australia is proving problematic  I can get a OEM one from overseas, hell, you can still get new ones in 'Merica, but, shipping is a absolute killer and I cannot justify the cost, or the risk of it being damaged during transport As for the aftermarket hardtops, whilst they do the job of being a hard top, and are fine for a track car, they don't seal well (read: leak like a sieve in the rain), and you need a plastic/poly rear window, plus they are a bolt in option only and not made to be easily removed I liked how the hard top on my NB could be fitted, and removed, by myself, in less than 5 minutes I know it sounds bad, but I'm waiting for someone to write off a car with one so I can swoop in on their pain, it will go to a good home though, so my guilt of this is tempered
    • I’ve got one on mine and it’s fine, 
    • No, you don't want to plug the vacuum line, as that will turn that side of the booster into an air spring and probably make it feel worse. I'm not saying that the GTR master itself doesn't need a booster. I haven't paid attention to the GTR one to know what size it is cf the non-GTR ones. But when you think about it - they have to do the same job, which is to move a little slave piston a few mm to do what it is supposed to do, and that final action is the same on all the cars. So, it is very unlikely that the GTR MC is any different than the others, because it has the same pedal stroke and the same output requirement. The booster just makes it feel easier. I'd suggest you probably have an actual hydraulic problem. It's totally common on these old shitboxes.
    • Ye, in terms of bolting up the "Conversion" from a GT to a GTT is effectively "Use GTT parts for everything" Except the subframe itself, because you won't want a HICAS/4WS subframe. Remember your ABS system will be different too, thanks to GT being the S15 3 sensor system, instead of the R34 4 sensor system for wheel speed. I do not know how people get this to work given R34 diffs do not have a provision for an ABS sensor (they are on the tone wheels of the axles). I assume***** people use S15 gear/R34NA forever when they realize this - Or they convert it to a rear diff/axles that are R33 style which I presume has the singular speed sensor on the diff itself, but then you have to wire it all in and...and... and...
