Hey Ppl!!!

I am new to sydney and I was wondering were car people hang out or is this sometime that Sydney people just dont do?. Im from Adelaide and there are a few spots were there will always be car people socialising and hanging out and doing bad things like burnouts. I wanted to know if you have those types of places here . I know newcastle very well as family lives up there and I know were the cruising place up there are e.g along the shore and sometimes under the bridge. I get bored on weekends and go for a cruise but can never find any cars out???

Just curious

:D

The rocks isnt like it used to be - cops are very bad down there now. If you want to drive through the rocks do it during the day when they will be out catching real criminals and not waiting around the corner for you

just head around the city mate, always plenty of cars on george st, in the cross, parra road, harrys cafe, head to stanmore maccas or kingsford maccas if u want to see some cars,

generally no one stops in the city as the cops just harass you untill you move

they do stupid things to keep cars out of the rocks... they put a nice high speed hump just before the turn into the rocks.. now theyve made it a 1 lane - 2 way pass under the bridge with a traffic light controlling traffic.

i went through there last sat night and everyone was jumping out of their cars pumping music and dancing. its a bigger hangout now.

Ummmm.

I'm not sure that the Macca's scene is what this fellow is after.

Some of the best cruise nights I've had in Sydney is taking the old daily driver out and visiting the local late night drag spots.

Or nice pre-arranged fangs through twisty roads with heaps of scenary in the hills......

Gone are the days of the Chatswood car park met ups :D

Andy Mac you are right this is what we are looking for....

The meet up point before heading into the hills .

The spots were you can talk about performance ..

All though George St Saturday night was pumping but we like to stop and chat not just cruise around aimlessly for hours on end...

How Ya Doing Nick,

How the devil are you…

I’ve still got the ‘ol R33GTS-t – Whale Spec

But now with the following modifications :

Stock Blow Off Valve Replaced.

New Royal Purple Oil (Did it myself too…)

This N1 R33GTR bloke seems like a dandy chap, wife seems pleasant too. Maybe we should arrange a “special welcome to mutha f**ken hardcore Sydney” crusie ?

Departing Chatswood 12am………Express to Lithgow or Singleton…

Just suggestions.

Your Faithfully,

Andrew

      Blue slip

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.

      Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.

      Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?

      You just need a different blue slip shop (preferably one you regularly use as a mechanic), and make sure the coil overs are as close as possible to standard height

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      By Duncan · Posted

      yeah the sugar refining companies were pushing for the same in Oz originally, all fuels were going to have 10% ethanol to make them "cheaper" (noting, that the loss in l/100 might be greater than the decrease in price). I guess they won that fight in Canadia
