Agreed! The more the merrier! :)

Also Guni, I am appointing you cruise leader this time. Mostly because I said so, but a little because well... I said so. :P

G'day - would be great to have you along, I've just updated the first post with the final details so all is set for next Sunday. Hope you can make it!

** To everyone else **

Okay, so the FINAL cruise route is up, I'm not changing it again! Based on the feedback the meeting point will be at the McDonald's restaurant in Diamond Creek, off Main Hurstbridge Road, and the finishing point is at Lake Lilydale.

From Lake Lilydale those who aren't participating in dinner can go their own way and the rest of us will decide on a dinner venue and go from there - I'd say most of the cruise pack would cruise back in via Eastlink so we'll still be together for a little longer :) So put your thinking caps on for a place to go for dinner afterwards!!

Also just a reminder, I put all the groundwork in for this along with Nathan (Tofuboi) so I'm not interested in leading, so if no one nominates for this prior to someone will be nominated on the day. Thank you to those others who have provided feedback and suggestions along the way :) It was much appreciated!

So now we've just got to wait for the day to roll around!! Come on Victorian members, would love to get a good turn out for this one :D

Heheh btw way Lee, what do you mean YOU feel so alone!? I'm always the only bloody Camry lol Except for that one meet-up in Melb when Kyle came along. At least you've got Nathan in the gold Aurion along most of the time lol

So where are all the Camry owners in Victoria!? I know Reece would like to come along if he can but how about some of the others?

Hahah oh of course! Hmm, well we will have to keep drumming up some 'business' - more of the big cars :D

Haha Tash! Its just Lilydale lake. Its not good enough to be called Lake Lilydale hehe :P

Im all in for one of those stickers! Is there any pic of what they look like?

Lol whoops my bad! Oh well, it is the way that it is now so for this cruise it can be Lake Lilydale :P Google knew what I was looking for!

If it's the stickers I'm thinking of they're pretty nice, just a white font with the web address and they're probably about 4-5cm high and maybe 30cm long. I know some of the guys have put them on their side skirts.

Tash, im sorry to report that i cannot make it this weekend. I took work off for this but turns out my girlfriend bought us tickets to go to future music festival which happens to be on the same day and basically i had no say in the matter. Convo went something like this;

"I took work off sunday babe, wanna come on the cruise?"

"nuh, were going future remember?"

"whos we?"

"i bought us tickets cause i knew you wouldnt go if it wasnt for free..SURPRISEEE!!!"

"oh thanks babe!"

//no pussy whip.

100% ill go to the next one, shoot me if i dont. by then i should have my exhaust and hopefully a few other small mods done. However, if your ever in the inner melbourne metro area, drop me a line tash!

Hey guys I don't know if this sounds really corny or anything but I think we should try and somehow dedicate the cruise to the recent events that took place the past day. Daryl (DJKOR)'s 2007 Toyota Aurion Sportivo SX6 was involved in an unavoidable accident and well, see for yourself.

http://au.toyotaownersclub.com/forums/inde...st&p=380078

I don't know how we can but myself and I'm sure most of you feel really bad for the accident that occured that fortunately did not take Daryl and his Dad's lives (they are ok from what we know), alas his car was not fortunate enough to really survive the incident.

I don't know, just my two cents I guess.

I think your heart is on the right place mate, but i think it might be a bit weird dedicating the cruise when it was really on the car that was lost. Sure it's not a great situation that DJKOR is in but he or anyone else hasn't passed away (thank god). At the end of the day losing a person is hell different to losing a car.

Only my 2c and not meant with any disrespect.

No worries Reece, Future looks like a good set :D The next one might be like one we've had in the past where we just meet up somewhere and hang out without venturing too far. I'll definitely keep it in mind though, don't get down to Melbourne very often but when I do I'll let you know :)

Yes I do.

Kinda buggered after working 6 days straight and got a track day to prep on Monday. If it rains on Sunday which it looks like it will, I'll have to skip as I got semis on and its a no no.

Lazy to chuck normal tyres back on unless someone wants to help ;)

      Wobble at the front

      Vibration under acceleration is quite commonly due to a failing CV axle. I had it happen on my old Aurion where coasting would be fine and under acceleration/load it would start to vibrate quite violently.

      Brake issues

      Had the rear rotors machined. So far have travelled under 10k kms and the problem has come back, albeit not as bad. Will have a chat with the guy who machined the rotors and DBA also. Maybe need to replace with genuine Toyota items.

      Best Oil for 2014 Lancruiser GXL 200 series TT V8 Diesel

      Hi Ross, we have a 2013 Landcruiser. Played with various oils and concluded that 5W30 Synthetic is the best option. Nulon seems to be on special often, GW is also good. Castrol Magnatec not really suitable for a diesel. Penrite is also good but try and stick to a full synthetic. No real need to change oil at 5000 Kms unless you worked the engine towing. I found that the oil level dropped when using the gearbox to slow down like you do in a manual. Other then that no oil use at 140k kms. Best oil is AMSOIL, but unduly expensive. Controversial but I swear by it is a 'catch can'. If you don't have one, get one but the right one for the car. Initially I was skeptical about its purpose but am sorry I did not get one from the beginning (new). If you check the design of the engine, the cam chain run just below the PCV valve. IMHO this promotes oils being flung into the PCV valve and hence the inlet tract. A catch can will catch that oil - no pun intended.

      rear wheel arch hole covers (3rd row seats removed)

      I ordered the Booxe Gap Caps from South Africa. Way better quality than the ones from Nautica. A little more expensive but looks way better installed. FYI one 3rd row seat weighs 15.4kg's that's a weight saving of nearly 31kgs with both removed.

      2013 Kluger grande Bluetooth music issues

      I have a 2011 Grande and it is not possible to play music via the bluetooth without using the aux connection. I bought this product which makes it a wireless bluetooth experience. https://www.amazon.com.au/dp/B0BG2GMH8S?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title This device connects to your phone via bluetooth and connects to the car via the aux connection. For me, once the car starts it all connects up, I say Hey Google, play music and the car plays music without having to connect my phone to any cables.

      2010 MANUAL Prado with high speed acceleration hickup

      I have a 2010 manual Prado with 196,000 km that has excellent service history Injectors were done at 130,000 km and today I replaced the fuel filters as a first step for this issue. The car pretty well drives perfectly and I have no issues with it Other than if I'm sitting at 110 km an hour and put my foot down it hesitates for a second like a cough. It only does it at this speed. If I'm sitting on 100 and accelerate it doesn't do it and same with any other speeds like 60 or 80 put my foot down it's fine, only does it at 110. Any ideas or help would be appreciated. Thank you

      Fuel filter change - start stops running

      We recently completed a service a few weeks ago. Following this, a warning light indicated water in the filter. We replaced the filter, but subsequently encountered starting issues. After replacing the battery, the car eventually started. However, after running for about five minutes, it stalled as if it had run out of diesel. We have primed the filter, engine starts but then car stops again. Any advice would be greatly appreciated

      Best Oil for 2014 Lancruiser GXL 200 series TT V8 Diesel

      My 2008 Sahara has 630,000 km on original engine and injectors. I run Gulf Western Top Dog 10w 40 semi synthetic oil, spec is CJ4 low Ash . Last EGR inspection at 400,000km revealed no soot. Engine still has same oil pressure as new and great fuel economy....Top Dog oil is for heavy duty truck diesel engines, not cheap but neither is a new engine..20K plus.
