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!

    • All I can say Duncan is good luck and I hope that Neil did not run any E85 in Cheryl. I have recently experienced the full spectrum of fuel tank issues in my R33's that had been caused by E85 and contaminated fuel. When you take the cover off the top of the tank and have a look inside you will get an understanding of how easy it will be. Best case situation is clean fuel with minimal contamination. My GTR was like this and it was a very simple operation to just grab the fuel pump carrier bracket and slide it up and out of the tank. My three GTS_T's had different levels of fuel contamination that was probably caused by E85 in the fuel.  In the worst case all of the metal components in the tank had rusted to the point where there were pieces of rusted metal swirling around in the tank. This required the removal of the exhaust, the tailshaft, the complete rear cradle and the fuel tank. The components in the tank were that rusted that it took days to get the fuel pump carrier and the mounting brackets out of the tank. When the tank was finally cleaned, everything inside the tank had to be replaced. With the tank all back together I could then reinstall it in the car along with everything else that had to come out. Good luck and I hope that you find a clean tank.    
    • It is a two door. It is black and also still has the OEM wheels and stereo. Exact model would be KR_R32RGFEL_SS According to GTR-Registry.com is a 2 Door Coupe; RB20DE; 2WD no HICAS; MT.F5; (11L) Projector Headlamps and Fog Lights; (12_) Electronic Active Full Auto Air Con (Climate Control); (13-14SS) V Selection -- Which seems to be accurate description of my variant. Will try to upload a few pictures soon. The OEM wheels look like the below image. Image is taken from the goo-net-exchange website.

    • Welcome Gabriel. At least your car has a glorious RB and not the shitty CA18. As MBS206 mentioned all the good bits can be added later. Two doors or four?
    • And half of them have been converted to turbos.
