i figured i would start setting up the next cruise while people are interested still after the last one we just had. i thought, as we went north last time, this time we should head west through mt nebo and glorious , ive done it on my bike a few times and its a good ride. below is a quick map of where i was thinking.
as the last cruise was on the sunday, maybe this one should be on the saturday to give those who work on sundays a chance to get out. we leave macdonalds in enoggera around 10-10:30 ish and have lunch about half way through then finish up at the base of mount cootha. how about we aim for april 7th ??

sounds like a good way to get a defect. a bunch of boys driving around in a group at night will attract a fair amount of attention from the popo i recon.

hahaha. if thats your car in your profile pic you wont need to be doing anything wrong to get a defect. you are to low, do you have a boost controller? any mechanical gauges? blow off valve. the moment they pull you over for a "random licence check" you might as well call a tow truck and a cab for a lift home. sorry to be so negative but ive had every type of defect over the years. even down to having to many cigarette butts in the ashtray which made my car a "fire hazard". once you start bringing attention to yourself you are asking for trouble.

Thats my old car and in the 5 years I owned it got pulled over once and it was to check to see if I had a mod plate for my harness . Why own a nice car if all your going to do is worry about the cops and be afraid to drive it take a chance or go on a car cruise at day then what's the difference. Each to their own.

When you cruise during the day its seen as a club cruise but unfortunetly when you cruise at night its know as a hoon cruise. i have no problems driving my car anytime but im just not a fan of bringing any more attention to myself then necessary hence i stay away from all the hoon hangouts after dark. as you said each to there own.

well my car has only 94,000kms on it and from what i can tell its never had a 100,000 service. so im happy to let it sit there for a while and i will save for the service. i would rather just do something in one hit then in bits and pieces
I believe you can buy the parts cheaper from your local toyota spare parts dealer (at least worth pricing). If you do a search there should be plenty of threads with the part numbers of what you need.
