Nice, there defiantly has to be a certain caution when driving on the snow. i have not for the 15+ years i have been driving to the snow been on ice, slid on ice etc. driven on snow plenty of times and never had issues on it..

what kind of road clearing do they have in Vic? do they do all the salting etc?

you have to remember that resorts like Hotham are at the top of the resort (1950m) and you drive there. Like driving to the top of Mt Perisher.

that day they had the snow plow going non-stop, there was a line of 40+ cars and 4wds waiting for the plow to do a run and then they would follow it down. There would be lucky to be 1 day a year like that.

Yeah Hotham is at the top of the mountain, you actually drive almost to the top of the highest run. 95% of runs and downhill from the road.

I've never seen them ice a road in Vic, but they may do it?

      HKS Vcam Step Pro Issues

      By believer · Posted

      Hi guys, Sorry to butt in and take it slightly off course, although still on the VCAM subject.  I had VCAM put into my Tomei 2.8 bottom end and I struggle to take off because the engine has very little torque caused by VERY low dynamic compression at 60psi. But once off the mark and especially on boost, the engine rev happily all the way to 8000rpm and makes 630hp at 20psi of boost on E85 at the rear hubs. Has anyone had any similar experience or any suggestions on what might cause this low compression at low rpm? I am in the process of converting it into a 8hp transmission and with this low torque, the engine would not even stay running until the throttle is opened to more than 30% and then I loose all vacuum.

      Shockabsorber 101

      By Watermouse · Posted

      Last year I got a set of MCA street coilovers for my turbo Forester after my son hitting a concrete gutter/wall on a small bridge causing the whole drivers side suspension to get bent because the rain just made the car slide out I love them, I think they were $2400. even had a hiccup of have the wrong hub configuration (my fault) so got onto MCA and they sent the correct shock ends overnight parts from QLD, for free!  I was very impressed with their customer service and quality of the product

      High temp brake fluid?

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      They've had some weird failures on their brake actuators. One of them was because they added some kind of lubricant to the factory fill brake fluid that aftermarket brake fluid didn't have so it would affect the seals. Another was just mysterious, probably internal corrosion or something eating away at Prius brake actuators. Parts alone for those are a few thousand USD so not a cheap fix.
