I'm with you on that one!

is 110 degrees good for a GTR :(

Pays to turn the aircond off going up the range following the hot exhaust of another GTR :D even though the girlfriend would cook my real girlfriend would stay under 90 degrees :lol:

We went home via the same route taken to get there. Stopped up on top of Mt Mee and watched the storms hit down below. Didn't have to touch the wipers all the way home. Put car in garage and it didn't stop raining and hailing for 45 minutes!! I must be lucky I guess. Well done to all and Merry Christmas.

Nice work Special thanks to all those who organised and did there bit.

Those that I can remember

Erin

Andrew

James

Marc

Quick note - I wasn't actually involved in organising this cruise. Not having a go or anything mate, I just don't like to take credit for others' work :)

Top job Erin, Andrew, James and all others involved.

Don't you love it when a plan comes together :)

Beau and I had a "leisurely" drive back via Fernvale. Nice roads, but holy crap that was some heavy rain.

I was talking with one of the members from fordlaser.com and he said about 3/4 of them had to stop half way down the mountain due to brake fade.

I told him to buy a skyline and he wouldn't have that problem.

So then he starts with the wisecracks like...what's so massive about 100 Skylines all together, so I say...the difference is, if I wanted to see 100 lasers....all I gotta do is go to the wreckers. He crumbled and ran to his corner, crying like a little girl.

that and the fact that i counted about 7 lasers in total, and here i was worried we might have been struggling for room in the carpark with 2 cruises going on at once

lol.

I didn't see you stopped .. but that explains why I couldn't catch you after you went past while I was having a smoke break and checking out the storm.. I pushed it down the mountain hoping to catch up, after a while I caught a couple of slower moving cars and thought that somehow you must of overtaken them.

Got the car in the garage at home about 2 mins before it poured, but didn't get any hail and I'm only a couple of k's from you

Excellent day and thanks go out to all involved :P

Yeah thanks Erin and crew for another great day out... I did learn one lesson though: put sunscreen on before arriving at the cruise destination!! - in the hour that we hung around at Aspley I went from human to lobster...

...We cruised back from the dam through Peachester with Sunny weather and minimal cars only had to overtake a couple of 'sunday drivers'.  Sorry to the car Red R33 GTSt behind me as we overtook a sunday driver, I hope my flames didn't scorch your paint work  :(  :P  :P

The flamage show was awesome!... but maybe it was your flames that lobstered my face - my paintwork was unharmed though, so it was well worth it! B)

Thanks for letting me tag along back to the coast... ;)

I didn't take too many photos, but here's one:

    • KYBs are typically twin tube, putting them in the lower tier of desireability. Do you just want to replace worn out ones for the lowest cost? I mean, you wouldn't just replace one end of a car, if the rears are a similar age to the fronts, then they are probably nowhere near what they should be, and likely won't be great against brand new fronts. So, to spend ~$800 on 2nd tier dampers, when you could get a decent set of MCA coilovers for <$4k.....? As to the strut tops. 1st up, the Sparesbox site specifically tells you that they are not correct for an R33. Beyond that, why do you think you need them?
    • That's not very Toyota of the Toyota!
    • Bringing an old thread back to life Looking to put some new front shocks in the r33Gtst and the KYB still look ok for a road car. Unless there are any other options aroind that price $200 a shock?  I’d like to replace the strut tops also, is this the correct KYB no. For the strut top, KSM7124?  https://www.sparesbox.com.au/products/kyb-strut-top-mount-ksm7124?srsltid=AfmBOoq-HDru8wSlLnQrhU9gCw_uYdKg8gUQzONY-EQOdnI5iXOWEUjY 341287 appears to be the front KYB shocks part no.  thanks all   
    • LandCruiser used to get a fluid flush every 12 to 18 months.   Only because it was about that often the electric motor on the master for brake assist kept dieing and needing to come off.
