Guys,

There are multiple posts from people concerned for the safety of their skylines, but still very eager to get their cars out of the garage

The lawrence hardgrave drive was opened up for people to walk over on sunday, but cars can travel on it from monday.

So far ive been through the LH drive 3 times, its a really great short drive (would be a good hillclimb if the road could be closed off) and NOWHERE near the violence affected suburbs

Directions: Head south on princes highway, take the wollongong turnoff (its the 2 left lanes near kirrawee - cant miss, theres signs) follow that for a while (15 mins or so depending on traffic). the LH drive turnoff is well signposted and is quite visible from a long way away. go straight through the roundabout then turn right at the first stop sign and enjoy

-Steve

Forget that, you may as well do the drive properly! Take the Royal National Park turnoff at Audley and enjoy the run through there as well. I used to go for a drive through the national park, down through stanwell and along the coast to wollongong pretty much every week when the coast road was open, its magnificent in summer.

Yeah nasho is fun, i left it out cause i thought everybody would have done it already.

Heres my Saturday arvo circuit:

From home to nasho, through nasho to LH drive, down that, through the gong, towards mac pass (up and down that a few times) then back to Sydney

Great way to waste fuel and tyres

I was considering this run as a suggestion for the cancelled Sydney to Newcastle cruise this Sunday. I drive to Wollongong everyday but I take the quicker freeway route. Might try the LH run this weekend.

yeah nasho run is great!!! Had my first drive through there on Sunday after the Xmas cruise!! Soooooooo much fun :)

I went through there on sunday at around 4pm, only saw one white r34 though.

Yeah i totally agree Morgs, an organised cruise through there at the moment is stupidity, but people going by themselves should be ok

There was an XR8 cop car behind me the whole way when i did it the first time, he didnt seem to care. Although if there were 10 more skylines infront of me im sure it would have been a different story

After this whole racial thing dies down i might organise a cruise through there

Last night i was being tailgated by a cop van. seriously, a damn van!

I think it was a hiace? not sure of its name exactly. I couldnt see his lights in the mirror-he was that close. So to get rid of him i changed from 5th to 3rd (which obviously slows down :) ) and didnt touch the brakes. Needless to say he got a shock.

They left me alone after that

In hindsight i shouldnt have done it, but like most skyline owners i was doing nothing wrong and just going home from dinner, definatly not in the mood for being hassled

If you take the alternative back roads, you can virtually avoid all the hot spots and still cruise on down to wollongong. Or could even stop short of there and go to Tawradgi Beach which is a nice and quiet place to park.

Alford's Point Rd then the Bangor By-Pass and then onto the Princes Highway and the National Park, then LH Drive and back onto Princes H/way.

^^^ To all those interested in the Nasho run, please be advised that some friends of mine happened to notice a huge sign out near Kirrawee McDonalds that police are now targeting speeding in the national park...

So just be careful when your in there

    • I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.
    • Engines and drivelines are not war stoppers for me mate, busted arse bodies and un-obtainium parts and panels are though Both cheap Brumbies I looked at had trashed tubs and a fair bit of rust
    • Stock O2 sensors are narrowband. They're useless once you're away from stoich. IE, useless for what you're trying to do. 10:1 will read the same as 14:1 from the stock O2 sensors. That is, they'll read rich. The same level of rich.
    • I agree once misfires happen it's basically worthless, but the hope is you can see what's happening in the run up to that. 
    • You should totally get a Brumby, and then come pick up the Subaru Liberty GTB I have here. EJ25 Turbo, 6 speed manual from the sti (just no dccd), and the good rear diff. Drop all that into a Brumby and go have fun!
