2011 Great Ocean Road Trip Discussion Thread
jaygore replied to TheNOBBLER's topic in VIC / Melbourne
I'm going to be tight on cash as well, =\ as everything seems to want to break at the moment, but I am going to get to this no matter what! My biggest issue is ove heating at the moment and if i can't get this resolved then it may stop me from coming =[ -
Finally got a new bumper, hard to tell from the photos, but this one is a million times better. When i took the old one of it was split in several sections and was in a very sad state here is a picture of them together it polished up quite nicely and it has now made me alot happier with te stance of the front of my car.. Now its just gotta get lowered which happens tomorrow =] However I'm geting it lowered 2 inches, should I maybe only lower it 1 inch?? Also where can one get a sway bar for a ke20?
-
Yea i got one jap style and one rc style, so I was thinking jap style on rear window and rc sticker on the rear quarter window and I will get another one when they in stock for the other side

Hey clown, havent seen me driving around yet?? What model/year cressida you cruising around in?
-
ok my cars head gasket is fine, got my dad to check it as well, I'm guessing i need to get the radu=iator flushed as I am still over heating.. However I am not leaking anymore as I have gotten a new thermostat and radiator cap, I will get it flushed during the week
-
Can people post up pictures of placement of there stickers, I am not the best with that so I want to see where others are putting them
-
Cheers mate, ours are no where near as bad, but its the last thing australia needs..... its weird to think that our lake was completely bone dry, and they said it would take upto 3-4 years to become full again and now its broken its banks in less than a Year!! i finish work in an hour n half so I'm going to drive around and take some pictures.

These videos were taken at 7.50am and it has risen since Alot of my friends have been evacuated and some the second time with in 4months. Alot of Suburbs in ballarat are blocked off as well... Will let you guys know how things go
-
Yea well there are a few things I'm going to try this afternoon, going to bursons to pick up a few parts and we will go from there.. But thats providing I can get anywhere half of our roads are flooded and we can't get into certain suburbs =\
-
Ok Creswick, Beaufort, and a few other towns are now being evacuated down here in Victoria! Parts of Ballarat have been cut off due to flooding as well. We have had nearly 100mm in a 24 hour time period. Creswick has flooded for the second time in 4 months now.

Ah sweet, I'm sure it will be fine by the end of the month, well I hope so anyway -
well if the head is stuffed on it I am going to be going straight back to where I got it from and having quite some strong words with them. As I did end up paying $600 for it! Now I am really pissed off!!
-
Europa is amazing man... And every now and again i cruise around.... next time your in town give me a yell and I will cruise sturt street for you :P
-
yep, and mine is even neater! so imagine if you had seen mine :D
-
Yea that was one of the other things I was going to do, butt money is an issue at the moment, but hopefully I can get it done
-
shouldnt be a head gasket as I just had another engine put in and I was told the engine had been tested and was strong, if it is a hea gasket, I will be having words with the people who provided the engine
-
Yea I called bursons and they have one... My issue however is that I a started over heating on a longish trip 100+ km's. During this trip i was doing 110km/h. However around town my car is fine. I have also noticed that I am getting pressure released from the radiator cap. I am buying anew radiator cap and thermostat tomorrow and doing another radiator flush. I will also get some new hoses to see how that goes. But on my long drive what i did notice was that I seemed to have alot of coolant leaking out of my overflow, which Is never over the line on the bottle, So for some reason there is pressure in my radiator and therefore it is feeding it all into my overflow and then also I seem to have some coming out from the radiator cap. Once i do these small things I will see how it goes on a longer trip on saturday.. I am hoping thats all it is.

Hey guys, Not to sure if you have heard yet, but there are huge slabs of the Great Ocean road close due to rock slides. Lets hope this weather does not continue, otherwise our cruise may not be as we would like it to be, there has also been some flash flooding in Kennet River, as one of my mates was there. There is more rain on the way today and predicting some large rainfalls, this will only cause more rockslides and flooding. I'm sure it will be fine by the end of the month, but then again no one expected this weather in January -
Hey guys been following this closely on the news and also my Brother lives in Ipswitch, So it has come a little close to home for me as well. My dad who currently is not working in the Victoria Police force due to Health is going to be talking with them today to see if they can fly him up there to assist with rescues and so on. This is also making me think more about joining the SES myself so that i can assist in times like these. If there is anything at all that I or all of us on here can do, then lets do it. Raising money is a huge thing, but also moral support is a huge thing as well. Keep safe guys and we are thinking and praying for you

You are better off talking to an engineer locally and get their opinion. That would be your best bet. But in victoria the laws seem to be alot tougher than they used to be
