Epic turnout I must say. Even for a non-offical SAU Event it went very well. Perfect weather! Thanks to Justin and Owen for organizing it.

Good to see some new and old faces. Today couldnt have been any better with the weather.

Want to say thanks to everyone who helped out with my flat and getting me back on the road. I'm so glad Matt phoned Tyre Power at the right time who opened up their workshop to fix my puncture!

By the way. I still have the air compressor from the guy with the blue shirt (sorry I missed your name :(). PM me your address and I'll make so it gets back to you!

Who got sun burnt? I'm red as a lobster!!!

No worries mate. Should've called earlier in fact but it all ended well so no dramas! :cheers: Hope the repair was a good one and it holds up well; I'd rather preserve a P Zero if I could help it! Mike @ Tyrepower Dapto / Cringila sounds like a good bloke, would you recommend him for the guys in your area?

Fair enough mate. Think it was a truck that mustve come down just before us, it stank...

Thanks for the pics Alex. Was good to meet you as well :)

A few from the car:

No worries Matt! It was good to meet you as well. Same goes out to all the other guys I met. Looking forward to coming on a few more cruises in the not too distant future. :D

And great photos by Terry. Great day all around. :D

Can someone send me / add link to footage of the run up the pass please?

Cheers,

Anthony

I was sitting in font of you up the pass and my 12 year old had the video camera on the way up. She took a wonderful video of the passengers dashboard. :rofl2:

    • 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.
