ARRGHHGHGHHG THAT'S IT ZAP DIES THIS WEEK!

Um i din mean to dori dori in the carpark... i pulled out n the back slid out... and i was liek hey... this could be fine, so I switched sides and hung the other side out..

then my responsible side kicked in and went "oh shit, i jus threw up gravel n sand and there's liek 10 cars behnd me... there go recently washed look..." that's why I put an apologetic hand up...

I made a mistake with that meetup point tho... I meant it to be a bit further down where its like a lil carpark that's on the beach front and like u can actually see the cars and the bewach from the road... not hidden behind shrubs..

ahh well.. next time

cool photo, i like!

yeah shan, i first had a good look at the car park opposite 'Red Bluff Hotel', cos that has the 360 degree-ness u were talking about when u first organised this thing. Then all u guys weren't there so i was heading off down to half moon and just happened to catch a glimpse of some dude taking a pic of a white skyline thru the bushes ;)

anyways, if u r ever organising something down bayside again, just give me a bell if u want to clear anything up, cos i'm a yokel :)

maybe i can be SAU sacrificial car for cruises, i can like dori across 2 lanes so u guys can all stay together and stuff!! :) oooo ooo, and get those commander things than can change traffic lights!! hehe

yeah chinny das the one I was thinking of as well... i looked at it on the map n I was like.. yeah that looks about right...

but it wasn't ah well... i got to do some gravel powerslides out of it....

wonder if any1 else did or I was da only immature one ;)

and this :zap: stuff isn't too bad... after a few drinks...

:zap: :zap: :zap: :zap: :zap:

Where else nice scenic cruising routes beside GOR? I had a drive past Warrnambool along the coast up to Adelaide. It was a terrific drive with many things to see along the way, although it'll be a bit too far for many, and wouldn't be suitable for a 1 day cruise.

I was wondering if anyone tried going along the coast up to Lakes Entrance, would that be as nice as GOR?

I would be happy to do the same cruise again, as far as cruises go it was a little weak, but if we could fill the car park at elwood or somewhere similar, that would be awesome! I would like to end a cruise somewhere with a park in plain view of our cars. I am sure that folks right now are travelling to places over the holidays and will come back with some great suggestions!! HINT HINT C'mon peoples lets make the next cruise even better.

    • Yep it's an r34. Usually people remove struts without removing the front upper control arm (fuca is what i assume this is?) So not sure why mine wouldn't fit. I know on my other car I did a similar job and it wouldn't fit until I removes the ball joint nut even though I didn't remove it prior.   The upper arm doesn't seem to be in the way (the part that's bolted to the chassis. The part that's bolted onto the j arm I'll check that out though.   I was going to compress the spring and put it in with the compressor attached but not sure if it will work  Haven't seen anyone do it.
    • I have a small lip on the boot of the E90 and I've been toying with the idea of trying to mould it in to the boot to remove the gaps. I guess shaving the seams? No idea what the terminology is here.  What I'm wondering is, if it's current double sided taped down, what would I do to more permanently attach it so it makes a good base for the filler? It only has edges so no way to bolt it down unless I add some braces. I've done a lot of fibre glassing in my time so that's nice and easy but I'm not sure what my options are here.  Sorry, this is the best pic I have and I'm 4 million ks from home ATM.  
    • Based on this comment I went googling. A052's in the sizes I want are certainly not cheap, but I couldn't find anything in the V70A anywhere. How much do they run/where do they get sourced from? From what I know (nothing but internet searches and reviews etc) the R888 has pretty much fallen off from anyone's actual use, and the AO52 is the king of "road legal" rubber. Nobody is driving around on their daily for Z221, AO050, DZ03G. At that point, for purely track only tyres - Why not buy actual slicks? Why does nobody actually do that anyway?
    • This an R34? It shouldn't matter though - it should be the same as on any of the others, and by "any of the others" I mean R32, because that is the car that I have had the front end apart on about 50 times this year. Sometimes, it is much easier to get the lower shock eye onto that pin when: a) you have the upper shock nuts backed off a few turns so you can wiggle it a bit more freely. When they are tight the bottom of the strut is much harder to move that _leeeetle_ bit you might need it to to win the fight. b) you have the outer bolt(s) from the FUCA out and so you can move the lower pin around freely too. Then, all you have to do is put the upper arm back on when you've got the rest back together, and this is where jacking under the balljoint can help.
    • One question before I make a bigger mess potentially, do I need to undo the nut on the outer ball joint?
