Sunday Cruse, not for the feint of heart, but with incentives make sure your'e there otherwise you'll be missing out big time on a massive cruse!

Thanks to you guys for putting in the feedback and I hope this gives you what you want in every way and more!

OK Here we go!

Crusing from: M4 Eastern Creek - > Lapstone Hotel for lunch -> Katoomba, Stopping for a look at the 3 sisters- followed by some windy roads and a short photo session. THEN if you want to party it on with the hardcore boys, Join us to push it to Bathurst, Mount Panorama for some spectacular photos can be had on the starting line, through corners (this could take some time, and i MUST enforce responsibility!) This IS a race track, but we are visiting while it is a PUBLIC ROAD 60km limit.

SUNDAY 28th SEPTEMBER

MUST:

-Pee before we leave

-Due to numbers at main meetup point we may need to break people up into groups, please listen to event co-ordinators who look silly waving their arms at you laugh.gif

-Have a full tank... cause u'll need it

-Behave 110% at bathurst

Meetup: 11:00 am, Red Rooster carpark just off the M4, Eastern Creek (WESTBOUND)

Leave: 11:30

1st Stop: Lapstone Pub, great pizza, steaks, chicken, beer for the passengers, and fun for everyone.

2nd Stop: Katoomba, 3 sisters (just a quick break, a nice view and maybe a photo or two before moving on)

3rd Stop:Bathurst, Mt. Panorama. Here we have time to setup our cars in a nice line, get some back to back photos, aswell as footage through some famous turns!

CURRENT CAR ESTIMATE:40+

Way Home:

As fun as it is, this is a long cruse and some people might just wanna take the easy route home,

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
