If you mean 'Place' as in 'Destination', there is one 'Standout Place' for a Nissan man !!!

Try "Trackside, La Porchetta Restaurant" cnr Manns Rd and Gt Western Hwy on the left hand side as you come in from Sydney (from Old Pac Hwy)

The WHOLE DECOR is DEDICATED TO NISSAN !!!!!!!! Cars in inside are NISSAN incl. the R31 Touring Race Car, 1991 TOURING CAR CHAMP TROPHY WON MY NISSAN, MURALS OF Richards, Gibson, Skaife etc are ALL NISSAN. Even the Men's toilet have photos blown up of the start of '91 Bathurst are Nissan. Don't ask me what's in the Ladies' !!

Has anyone been there? It's owned by Terry Ashton - Committee Member of Touring Car A, and Touring Car C. He'll be pleased for you guys to go there!

If you mean 'Drive', I can only assume sections of tarmac that are relatively free of intersections, driveways and police cars hidden behind bushes and under rocks!

i) Macquarie Pass

ii) Old Pacific Hwy

iii) Jamberoo Pass Rd

iv) Kangaroo Valley Rd

v) Cambewarra Mtn Rd

vi) Hawkesbury Heights

Bells Line Of Road used to be #iii) but has been scrubbed for one of those reasons above...

Cheers, Terry

^^^ Oh I forgot! The restaurant is at Gosford!

And oh yeah, the food is good! Hot Stone stuff there is recommended!

Can one of the ladies tell us if there's Nissan paraphernalia in the ladies??

Shouldn't that be the corner of Manns Rd and Central Coast Highway, West Gosford, Terry? Pfft, 'sif own the place and not know where it is... :down:

Actually, I had dinner there tonight with a few fellow SAU members - and it was good. Next time I'm there I'll have to try the Hot Stone steaks...

Nick, I think it's a different Terry :D

Yes we had our SAU AGM there one year. Terry was a member of the club. I don't remember about the ladies toilets, sorry :down:

Sorry, half asleep when I wrote that post. At least my car knows where to go...

Hi M,

Thanks for feedback...

Yes, I'm a different Terry to the T.A. in Qld

My NSW Member application will be in this week.

And BTW I posted my views about 'Warn Rates' thread under 'Ideas/Feedback & Bugs' Section earlier this morning. Hope that defuses some heat!

Regards,

T

hahahaha, my bad... Maybe I should follow my own rule of "do not make assumptions!"

Oh well, no harm done, at least!

Favourite place in Sydney? Does 2 hours out of Sydney count? :D

It would have to be the drive up the Old Pac Hwy to the Hunter Valley with the top down and heated seats on :D Then when we arrive, head into the old rustic cottage that we've rented for the weekend, plonk the bags down, go out wine tasting for the afternoon... Come back to the cottage, get a nice fire going, cook a hearty roast dinner, drink a bottle or three of Hunter Shiraz, and then curl up in front of the roaring fire.

Bliss.

Or renting a similar rustic cottage in the Blue Mountains, waking up early going for a nice walk one of the countless bush trails just after sunrise in the crisp air :D

I thought it was Terry Ashwood :D

lol what did you guys think... that he likes talking about himself in the third person?? haha

I know quite a few people who like to do that, so why not?

WHAT? Alter-ego? Yeh why not?

Alter-ego Terry Ashwood drumming up business for himself eh?

Still a great place to go; getting back to the original thread. DON'T LOSE SIGHT OF THE THREAD!!!

Cheers,

Terry

1) My warm bed mmmmmmmmmm... bed.......

2) Blue Mountains. Either going for little cruise, or going for a bit of an adventure through the national parks. Lunch at Katoomba is nice too, just wear a scarf!

3) National Park cruise down to Stanwell Tops.

4) Back in my bed. Especially when it's cold outside :sleep:

*sleeps*

    • Ok I get you. But isn’t the butterfly intake a headache with the +T?  see this is my plan so far but please advise me into the right direction.  Nistune Ecu, 1000cc Bosch injectors, TD05 or TD06 Kinugawa turbo using stock rb25det exhuast manifold, walbro fuel pump unsure of model I think it’s 450/460, spitfire coils and sparks to suit and a R35 MAF sensor and boost sensor.    I was thinking maybe do a cheap eBay plenum $400-500 or try find a stock det neo intake. I think I’d port match it so it’s getting the full capacity but open to advice please.  Thanks 
    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
