XrSiSt,

How could you not know... this is blasfemic. You will have to come and be educated!

The Putty Road goes from Windsor to Cessnock, it is about 3-4 (I think) hours of loverly winding 100km/h speed limit road that undulates all the way.

It would probably have to be my favorite bit of tarmack.

Bells line of road also leaves from the Windsor area (Richmond actually) but it heads out to Lithgow.

****, I think I will have to move to Richmond/Windsor area... they have all these awesome roads leading in and out of there!!!

Just move to Parramatta. Drive to Winsdor, the cars warm...blast along the Bells Line, my dream Sunday Afternoon!

Last time I went I had some fun with a brand new Triumph Motorbike, awsome to see a bike about 4 feet off your rear end at high speed...

Funny, I let him pass me, he pulled alongside me and had a look in the window with a massive grin on his face, gave me the thumbs up and took off.....then I realised that was done close to 140!!! LOL

Must find this Putty Road thou....How do you rate it compared to Bells.....?

Bells I give a 7 out of ten, Old Pacific Highway I would give a 9/10 and Putty I would give a 15/10.

It will take a full day of driving to go up and back, but if your gonna go then PLEASE let me know.

Last time I travelled along it I was able to catch up to only about four vehicles in the whole trip. My average speed would probably have been 100kph (including the 60kph sections, very very tight), but I was watching the up coming corners etc. Depending how much risk you want to take depends on how "reckless" you can be... it needs to be remembered that this is a public road.

does it have similar use to that of old road or to that of stanwell?

errr, common sense would suggest not to be reckless AT ALL :confused:

Let's not let this thread go the way of the team Evade/OPH thread. :uh-huh:

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
