Used to enjoy it until I almost died going around there :(

They are indeed beautiful mountains. Nothing prettier than the sun peering through the trees along Mountain Highway heading up towards Sassafras.

yeah, too many ppl have bad experiences up there. but you dont even have to drive fast to appreciate them. well if anyone ever wants to head up let me know.

I've lived up there for years! Some of the best roads ever, love starting in ferntree gully and end up in Menzies creek the run is about an hour drive early in the morning so no traffic !! Lol

yeah NE does have some good roads, but seems not many people go there

Kinglake and surrounding are the best roads in that rough distance from the CBD IMO.

Mt Dandy is good, but doesn't impress me nearly as much as a lot of quieter roads up around KL etc.

my car is stockish, what do i have to fear :banana:

been pulled over 6-7 times, cops checked the car 3 times

and that was also when i didn't have a proper full set of wheels and was mix and matching 17s and 15s

mountain hwy is great, but you NEVER get a bottom to top without "interruption" unless its a 3 am jobby :banana:

yeah well dont get me wrong guyys im not asking for a race up the hill so operation raid wont be an issue unless you guys have illegal mods. i just wanna go for a nice semi spirited drive, nothing stupid. also will deff be interested in a KL type cruise if you guys are all interested. lovelly area.

im always down for a cruise just when and where ppl...... got sau meeting tonight. be good for some semi-sprited driving b4 i park the 34 for christmas. in between x-mas and nys + skyline with pz= ass rapidge.. haha

Hells yes, im always keen for a good dandy night!!! How about tonight anyone up for a good mountian fang? My breaks are warped shitless so i aint as fast as i use to be, but my GF wants to do something tonight i was kinda thinking of dandy bashing... anyone for for it gimmie a sms on 0422017404... cant be too late, 1-2 ish work tomorrow morning!!

Let me know anyway, live in wheelers hill 10-15mins from the base of the beast, if we go to the Burwood highway entrance side!

    • If that's the wiring from the factory, I'd be inspecting the loom everywhere.   Any signs of that anywhere else, and seriously, I'd get rid of the car ASAP before the electrical gremlins make it worthless, or it goes up in flames on its own. That is scary how that insulation is failing!
    • I should note too as I have all 4 wheel speed inputs to the emtron I now have the emtron controlling the attessa solenoid for 4wd/traction and launch control strategies. 
    • It works quite well with the adjustibility within each of the programs of the turbolamik. Essentially p1 is drive and lockup comes on like a normal driver.  But in program 7 I have customised it to not request the lockup clutch to engage until something like 6500/7 when slip was the lowest. 
    • Yep, I like that. The tags are only on the first post of a thread and we don't get huge numbers of new threads. Also, I plan to add some more report types and we could have a member report type like 'review tags' then members could flag if they thought a topic wasn't tagged correctly.  No way man, I dig the input. Thanks! 
    • It's a valid thought. There's not exactly that functionality already (when creating a thread) - that's where the OP can use/create any tag they want. We'd have to come up with a way for the user to request their tags get reviewed or something. Otherwise the mods would have to review every new post's tags (for those that have them, anyway). There's kind of that functionality already exists to some extent, post facto of starting the thread, where the OP or any other user could report the post to admins, and request that tags get reviewed. We could do this already, and any user could already have made such a request. To make it a part of the forum proper, it would require an initial and an ongoing education programme, so that people know that it's a thing. OP based tagging/request for review would also require at least some (probably most) of the user base to be told that it's a thing they can do. Both of these things probably wouldn't spread too far and/or get used very much. If it was the standard approach on a lot of different sites, then it might do, because people would be used to it. Prank's approach to this differs from my original thought, by leaning into tagging. Which is fine - it's possibly better than what I originally suggested. In fact, I just went to the R32 GTR wiring diagram thread and added tags, including "Library". That's probably a good way to use tags and the idea of a library. We just have to drag together an (organised!) index of threads or posts that have that tag. I have yet to do any of my own follow up by pursuing worthy threads and posts and reporting/marking/tagging them for the library, such as the @Sydneykid stuff I was talking about, and possibly any amount of @Lithium 's and others' posts. At least if I tag them Library, we'll have a start.   Back to @Wazmond's idea as it relates to @PranK's, we might have some sort of a list of tags that are already used to scrape for this library. I'm not entirely sure how that would be presented or used, particularly if it got long. But it's yet another idea!   cheers
