Well definitely a lot of interest here.. amazing, people do read the QLD forums :mad:

I think its just a matter of planning a route, that a large number of people its not too out of the way for, its a reasonable time, and giving PLENTY OF NOTICE.. i think that is the main key. At least 2-3 weeks notice, not "oh I'm going down here tonight, anybody want to meet up".

Sundays is good for me usually. I'll come down to Coomera if its a once a fortnight thing, its not far.. and its fairly open area around there for mucking about later on. But I'm not going anywhere for a while because I'm a bit poor :D

The other option is to get some more hardcore cruisers who want to try the mountains as a smaller group some nights. Sometimes late night runs can be excellent, because you get the cooler conditions to make your turbo go zip, and less cop and traffic troubles... but I'm not sure I guess you want to watch out for kangaroos this part of the world! That was never a problem in VIC :)

Hey Strutto,

Kudos for organising a good meet, too bad we were temporarily interupted by a bogan in a bombadore who came within a metre of a petrol bowser going sideways, what a wanker!

Hey did you see that RX7 spitting flames?!?! When you came up and past me and we took off it ATE me! After you got off we slowed down a bit and saw the flames shooting out the back, it was pretty cool!

Cant wait till next week! We'll have to get some "Team //GC" stickers :D

Ska: Thanks! Yeah some nice flames from the rotor. I've seen bigger from mine on the dyno though :rofl: Betcha the RX7 is in the workshop tomorrow!

Bogans: "Hey man, is that a skyline?? Do you'se like em or sumfin? Watch me do a fully sik donut in my stock EA Falcon in a packed servo with video cameras everywhere" LOSERS...

MELV: Your car is GOD...

Everyone who showed up: Thanks for comin...

Everyone else: This was NOT Mad Mountain //GC... Just a little meet up at BP Coomera to discuss the impending Mad Mountain cruise... Pity we didn't discuss it though... DOH!

Majority rules so it's going to be on a Sunday starting at BP Coomera... Early morning so the Brissy boys can make it... There will be PLENTY of notice when it happens. We have to sus the route first.

Stay tuned for further breaking information...

Yeah, was great to meet some of you tonight and hope to see you all when we go on a sunday cruise up the mountains. sunday at the coomera bP sounds good if we're going towards Mt tamborine, if heading north, glass house mtn then we can split to a few groups.

coomera bp for the gC boys then meet the Brissy boys at office works c/park and cont north to meet the rest at asply maccus and take off from there. what u think?

i went to milton and caught up with bryan, then we went to aspley, got there via airpot and at 10:30 not a **** in there, so we all park in there,(about 12) cars and the securtiy with a dog came out and told us to park elsewhere.

I'm sorry I coulnt go down to you guys, but would be interested in the crusie on sunday, pm me please.

:( sounded like you all had a great time, my headlights came today so if alls well hopefully i can join the next one :)

whos planning on going to drag combat? im hoping ill be able to drive there, either way i am going :cheers:

Zoix: I think i saw you yesterday, at gumdale/belmont post office ? we drove past in a grey skyline with big fmic, not sure if it was you. If it wasnt, then you have someone copying you !

    • 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?
