Hi all, this seemed to generate a good amount of interest but my scheduling was off so here is the official set in stone invitation.

What? Photoshoot cruise - Come along for a cruise and get some free pics out of it aswell. For the photographers out there, come along and show the world your skills and creative edge.

Anyone else, just come along for a drive.

When? Sat March 13th mid-late arvo, exact time tbc

Where? Official starting point will be the car park at the end of Ocean Road Palm Beach, but people might want to cruise up together.

Where to? The exact destination is yet to be confirmed. but in the vicinity of the city without being in defectville. But the main plan is somewhere under lights with a bit of atmosphere, rocks would be nice, but see the defectville concern. i'd appreciate input on this.

Via? TBC aswell, i'm looking at taking the route with the best photo op's along the way, both mobile (for the blurred background and spinning wheels look) and stationary.

Drivers - There are only so many cars that one photographer can cover with any amount of quality, so be aware that its a case of first in best dressed. I'll be looking at covering about 10 cars personally, anything more than that is going to depend on how many more photographers come along.

Photographers - Come along and show your stuff while helping your fellow sauers out. Take some pics, give some advice... come for a drive.

Anyone interested post below, if your interested in taking pics, let me know via PM aswell. I'll update the post with any photographers who care coming so we can keep everyone has an idea of how much attention they can personally expect.

    • I am currently going this route. I am curious how much horse power you put behind the cut bell housing? Collins was telling me I am going to crack it and bluh bluh bluh. Because I didn’t buy the custom fly wheel from him. I am looking for somewhere around like 500 hp
    • Forgot to mention that these are the before pics when I first got it!
    • Thanks @PranK for the updated member status, much appreciated! 👍🏼 Now, about those pics… Unfortunately I could only find ones that I took in the dark. I was soon to discover that underneath it wasn’t in the best shape, but it was mine and that’s all I cared about at the time 😆
    • Oh, and only having done this task yesterday, I've now driven the car ~60km since, and while it is hard to avoid placebo effect and confirmation bias, I reckon that some annoyances I had with the way the car has been behaving have improved. Which....kinda makes sense, I guess. If the bushes were really stiff and resisting rotation, they would have been contributing to the effective wheel rate. And if it was more so on one side (which it was, because one side was worse than the other) then.... you might imagine that the additional rate would be asymmetric, and potentially even different between compression and rebound. And so... the car has been twitchy at higher speeds - like freeway on ramps. It really shouldn't be. The wheel alignment is good and there are no (other) known problems elsewhere in the suspension. But at 90-100 on a long sweeping ramp, tiny steering wheel motions would make it feel like it wanted to rear steer. Quite nervous. At lower speeds it would heave about in a manner that it didn't use to. Didn't want to put power down, etc etc. Now...seems to behave better. Am going to have to concentrate on the various corners where it has exhibited weirdness, on the rare occasions when I can get a decent run at them without Methanial getting in the way in his D-Max/Ranger/LDV Van/etc.
