Meet N Greet Cruise! March 1st Penrith Regatta Centre Nsw


Recommended Posts

Howdy all... I'm Matt from Dr Tuning Mobile Performance

I am holding a car cruise on sunday the 1st of march at the Penrith Regatta centre, meet up is at 10.30am & will be heading out to the Yellowmundi / Hawkesbury lookout via castlereigh rd at 11.15. It will be a great cruise path as there is no traffic lights in sight from point A to point B & cold mountain air for that extra HP. ''The 'twisties' going up the mountain are priceless''!!!

We will be providing a free sausage sizzle on return and free entry is a bonus. We have the P5 carparked booked for the occasion and can hold up to 100 cars easy!! Awesome views & plenty to see at the Regatta centre... Can't be missed!!!

So come along, come say hi, enjoy yourself & come meet your local 'mobile' performance specialist... Dr Tuning!! Whether its more power your desire or better fuel economy for that street machine, we do it. Specialising in Microtech & Apexi tuning, turbochargers & Ignition systems!!!

You can contact admin on 0415420566 (Scott) or my self on 04 DR TUNING... Hope to see you there, thanks :)

The "twisties" are currently under construction (widening them) so plenty of signs + construction vehicles around. The Hawkesbury lookout will only handle about 20 cars, the carpark across the road will handle about 20 more.

Also, it's called Yarramundi not Yellowmundi :domokun:

Cool, hope to see some of you's there... But, they ARE not widening the road up the mountain, they are working on the rock work as it keeps falling every now and then. Though very rare, i have asked about this and sorry mate, wrong again, it is called 'Yellowmundi' up there... Lol. I have lived there all my life pretty much...

Its 'Yarramundi' as you get onto the Springwood / Hawkesbury rd through to the 'YMCA' there and at the top of the mountain through the bush is called 'Yellowrock'!!! So that lookout (Check the sign up there) is in the middle of the two places and so is the area around there, hence why that part is called 'Yellowmundi' (Yellow-rock & Yarra-mundi together) Lol.

And yeah, it only hold like 40 cars, but we will be heading up a little more to park...

Thanks again, Matt :)

That's correct that the rock face is being secured currently to make it safer for road users!

2 points to note...

i) Springwood/Hawkesbury Rd from Yarramundi to Agnes Banks has been frequently patrolled by unmarked keystones for about 5 months now. There is an easy solution to this tho'

ii) If you do decide to proceed a bit further past the lookout into Hawkesbury Heights, the speed limit has changed last month from 80Km/Hr > 60Km/Hr. And then it changes again to 80Km/Hr on the run towards Winmalee where it's 60 again of course.

Thanks for the sausages and time taken to put it on. Ignore the sign at Yarramundi advertising Mineral Water for 20c/litre since they're not open on a Sunday (only Saturdays 10-4 and Wednesdays after 3pm).

i might be persuaded to attend. Depending on the health of the skytanic lolz. Cuz im swappin out my gearbox on saturday. So ill let ya know.

wheres P5? thats final Destination yeh?

For anyone coming west to Penrith, you'd take the Mulgoa Rd offramp to Penrith > turn right towards Penrith.

Proceed along Mulgoa Rd and at the intersection of High St (where there's also a red light cam), cross it and > it becomes Castlereagh Rd.

Keep going straight till you hit the Andrews Rd Roundabout > turn left to the regatta centre and this is still the old part of Castlereagh Rd.

    • Yeah I've had too many issues with knock off's on the BMW's. I don't want to do a job twice or more because the parts are shit.
    • I read this and thought "ah! I will do this scissor jack on the tow point thing!" I just use my floor/low profile/costco jack and lift the car up by the tow hook itself, then slide jack stands under. Never thought about using scissor into floor jack combo :p
    • Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!    
    • So, I'm back with bad news. There's no jack long enough on this planet that will reach the front subframe. If by some chance there is, it would weigh 200lb's.  I purchased a long reach jack... The damn thing weighted 120lb's and was massive. Didn't even come close, was still short at least a foot. It was a pain, but I brought it back. Next I decided HA! No problem, I'll get an Extra long reach jack. Well, I couldn't lift the box... It must have weighed 160LB's and luckily there was an open box in store. I took measurement and was still nowhere close.  Sadly I've lost hope and have accepted defeat. 
    • Thanks for that tip, niZmO_Man. I think the battery is OK. It's quite a new one, but I'll check. Last time I needed a new battery, everything electronic was fine, except that there wasn't enough current to turn over the starter. I decided to order one of the partial AV system translation CDs from Car Audio Workshop in NZ. That might have some effect, or help me diagnose the date problem. 🤞
