I'd be surprised if the wasn't a thread on this already, but I can't find it.

So what's your favourite road to drive on in Perth? Talking about places close to the CBD, that you can do with an hour or two handy.

Mine at the moment would probably be the roads around Barbagallo in wannaroo, always good fun.

wannaroo road going up to two rocks, good road to test what your car has - this thread should be great for some cops :P

we're talking about our fav roads that we sensibly drive on within the speed limits of course :D

Oh and it's Wanneroo btw...

If any one likes to go for a late night drive from time to time i always tend to go along the freeway until you get to perth city, then go along mounts bay road, which then become Stirling hwy where you pass north freo along the ocean, then i put onto leach hwy and get some maccas on the way home :P

Otherwise if you want a fun drive, Kalamunda hills through the zig zags is always great.. Great view of perth also

Nannup , bridgetown , manjimup . We have this nice road 30ks out of bunbury thats quiet and a good 40k stretch of awesome road .

PM details ploise :P

But yeah, close to Perth.. Roleystone hills are fun, Croyden Rd/Soldiers Rd/etc. many cruises go through there and hit up the zigzags on the way out.

    • Not yet, might end up being easter now, didn't end up getting time off over xmas.    I've been seeing some concerning things online now too. Lots of people with issues, could all be setup issues but the consequences in some cases are significant.    All of the below are other peoples stories, not mine and are unverified.  Seen 2 x broken adapter ring that destroyed the gearbox as it failed.   They still do seem to have twin plate rattle despite claims of silent. Several issues with it not holding power but some evidence of constant pressure on plate. Setup issues with bite point.   Lot of people after 2-4 weeks swapping back to another brand.    On the positive side, I've seen a barra put down near 1000hp at the wheels and its held it.  Also everyone seems to confirm the pedal is light.    Does have me a little cautious and looking at ATS carbon clutches again .......        
    • I'm late to the party on this one but good to see common sense has prevailed and the turbo kit is coming. 
    • She's looking good Greg. Colour suits it perfectly 👍
    • I had a look at the FAB9 EFR kit, around $8500 AU before delivery, so add in shipping, installation, consumables and tuning, I believe the price difference would be negligible  And whilst I am paying top dollar at MX5 Mania, if I have any issues with the kit they are local for support,  and from my experience, will happily go out of their way to help, hell, I've purchased parts from them and asked "how do I install or remove parts" and they have fitted a few of them for free, this means more to me than saving a few thousand dollars And yes, 99% of the time I just plod around in the car, that may change once I start hearing turbo whooshy noises, but, as I have 3 family members is the constabulary, even when I'm up it, it is only up to the speed limit, or occasionally, but rarely, overtaking on the Hwy (I just plod in the left lane typically and enjoy the drive) Plus the kids would never let it go if I got booked speeding, Jackie is constantly getting critiqued by the kids about her driving, which I think is hilarious, and tell them that she is "bringing shame to our family", so heaven forbid if I ever got done speeding, after all my mouthing off about her driving, I would never live it down, and it would be another thing she would bring up any chance she got Like the time I got drunk about 15 years ago and fell out of a cab, which gets brought up at least a few times every year since it happened Good times
