love to drive to byron ....except for all the friggin speed cameras and if itravelling that far i would rather stay the week etc....

but yea im up for a drive ....

hunter valley?.....

wollombi road is an excellent road for driving on....

...well it depends if its one day .....port is probably a little far ......i think ...take 3.5 ours to get there ....3.5 on the way home theres 7 hours already gone.....maybe a weekend for that .........

u dont want to sit in the car the whole day ......

but if everyone else wants to do that ...i will come too ! hehe

Go to the Vineyards and go wine tasting. If your concerned about possible RBT's, You can be good and spit, or you can be bad and swallow :P

Plus the Newcastle mob might join up with us.

HECKTIC4DOOR I like the bathurst Idea, although the track is more jailbait than 15 yr old girls. Bells line of road is a great drive, the second day I got my car working I went up to bell for a swim.

I'd also be up for the gong too, some great driving around there but I don't know the area, im easily pleased and will drive anywhere -short of byron although I do love byron but I need a week of work for that ;)

Northern beaches? - coz im aware a fair few of you guys are northershorites

I wouldn't be too keen on going much further than 2 hours or so from the city. that'd be my limit

ill be in for whatever presuming i have no work on,

my suggestion is the gong, about an hour from sydney, maybe head there or back through the national park(but some parts of the road are a bit rough),

north shore sounds good too seen there seems to be a few people from that area

im happy to go wherever though, id say about 2 hours would be my limit too..

and bbq sounds good

If this BIG cruise can hold off for a month or so i will on like donkey kong. The Ceffie is still not on the boat so could be a bit over a month!

I am also Northside so if the cruise goes ahead it's here, i may be a passanger sl*t, if anyone is willing!

    • Yes, but no. You need to keep the mating surfaces bare (ie the flat faces where the caliper and upright pads touch the dogbone) and also the internal threads will remain bare (unless there are no internal threads - do they use nuts on all the bolts?). So you can slow down obvious external corrosion, but not all of it. Anodising would be required to provide decent protection to the alloy, but I'm not actually sure if you should anodise something that is all about the strength. Anodising does reduce strength significantly. Like, up to 50% on some alloys for high thickness coating.
    • Thanks   does painting on aluminium work or stop them from corroding?
    • 'Sgot nothing to do with them being Japanese. The climate in the north of Japan has similarities to the UK - the cars are made in the knowledge that they have snow and salt, and they rot there. Cars made in the US rot like buggery in the US. British cars have always rotted regardless of the weather. They will rot indoors in a climate controlled bubble! The brackets are not unsafe yet, but they will get that way. They may well corrode where the bolt threads are in contact and the bolts could just jump out without warning.
    • So unsafe would you say now?   little bit of has come off, guess road salt is a nightmare for Japanese car. Mx5 here have a well known issue or rotting 
    • Dissimilar metal corrosion. Aluminium is less noble than steel/iron, and will corrode preferentially when in contact with it and a conductive solution (ie, wet road salt). Tends to suggest that those brackets should be made in steel for a shitty climate like the UK.
