I'm keen for a cruise when my car get out of EVO,

Did a mad run the other day by myself thru sutton, Mq Pass, Kiama, back to robertson via Jamberoo Rd, Kangaroo Valley and home.

Awsome drive would enjoy it more with others and arranged stops at Robertson Pie shop, Kiama for lunch, Sutton Pub for afternoon coffe or (Light) beer and home.

I would think it's a bad idea to post dates and actual routes on this forum for any cruise arranged as cops are known to patrol these sights.

keep it private between email addresses.

I can see this, but at the same time I have a hunch that previous cruises have had low turnouts because this website has been down over the weekend in question, so people have been unable to see where we're going to meet, etc. If we publish where we're going, we may be able to get more people to come along. Just a suggestion. :D

Ok well in an effort to boost this up, how about we all meet at the Caltex service station (on the other side of the round-a-bout from Supercheap/Red Rooster) in Queanbeyan at 10:30AM? Most people on the forums seem to know that servo, and its a nice big carpark and then we can decide where to go from there?

So unless anyone has any objections, 10:30AM, Saturday morning, 7th Feb :D

Haha thats cool man, but the weekend after will be no good for alot of us as drag combat is on in Sydney.

How about we postpone this and set a new date after drag combat?

I'd be interested, but not this time [got other things on], but I'll stay tuned, maybe another time. I'll definitely make one of these cruises........it'll be a novelty seeing more than just my 'line on the road, and ACT is the closest for me.

      That last number you quoted is right about where I'm stuck, pretty spot on. Now let me share some of my Dyno results. Stock cams, stock fuel pump, stock MAFs, stock injectors, same exhaust and everything else oh yeah I forgot to add tomei FPR, intake cam advanced 2 notches, exhaust retarded 1 notch. Let's call this Dyno 01.

      @Murray_Calavera I forget but it's well within the duty cycle limits, my tuner is probably the only guy I trust locally to tune, definitely not the best but with his knowledge and experience, definitely the best here IMHO. He said it's the most he could get out of it on the last session (cam change) and increasing the boost wouldn't give much more gains. Yeah, definitely plan on upgrading to Link G4X or similar but I'd like to max out my setup first which I believe many have done so around 500hp.

      Yeah, so I think that is the point. If you presume a 25% lower reading on a chassis dyno than what the engine is making, then the most you would see from a 720HP engine is ~550wHP. "Lose" a little more because AWD dyno and the number will be lower. Call a hub dyno "wheel HP" and you should see higher numbers. But the horses would be a different size. And as Murray says above - an imposed 90% DC limit drops 550 down to 500 straight away. 80% takes you down to ~450.

      Sounds reasonable to me.  Do you know what your injector duty cycle is? I guess everyone has their own personal limit as to how high they want to flirt with 100% duty cycle, but who knows what your tuners limit is. Maybe they like to cap it at 80%? Now your injector CC to HP conversion has a 20% hair cut on it, then through drivetrain losses, yeah 500rwhp seems ok to me.  If you plan to spend on your GTR, modern injectors and a modern ECU will go a long way!

      @GTSBoythanks for replying. That's realistic and I always believed in the injector-hp rule of thumb. I am however making way less than that 😕 My guestimate/goal for the setup is a reliable 500rwhp, R33 gtr, seems realistic enough doesn't it?
