Yo,

Headed up to Entrance soon and wanted to know if anyone knew of any good scenic cruising routes going up that way. The more bends the better... and also the less bicycle bikers the better (ie Old Pacific - awesome route - but too many bicylces in the way)...

Cheers,

Mike

Old Pac is still tops > it depends on what time you do it!

I don't know what suburb you're heading from, but whilst you're after a scenic route, consider this loop...

Bobbin Head N.P. > Old Pacific Hwy > Kariong > Foresters Beach > Terrigal > The Entrance > Nora Head > Gorokan > Wyong > Mangrove Mountain > Spencer > Wisemans Ferry (which will be OK with your front lip) > Dural > Galston Gorge > Hornsby :)

You can do the above in reverse order; and if you do, I'd stop at the Trackside Restaurant West Gosford (a virtual Nissan restaurant) for lunch/afternoon tea/dinner.

Tons of twists in that!!!!!! Take all day with a nice long lunch.

But I would like one... You guys offering?? hehe

We'll be taking off from Milsons Point. I just Google Mapped your route. It will be just over a 5 hour cruise for all the checkpoints. So I will just make it home on one tank.

:thumbsup: Andrew, Im still trying to convince my mates to go through this route, but we're going for a Birthday so come cars will be fully loaded. But will definately let you know if we go through it.

Terry, already considered it mate and would have loved to go. But after my Wedding in August then honeymooning in Malaysia & then organising Track Day in September, my CAR-STUFF-4FUN-FUND funds are almost zero. Just got enough in there for petrol for a cruise or two.

Scrimp those two cruises together, as that's what, 2 tanks of fuel?

Use one tank of fuel (Or a touch less) to get to Trackside with us, $45 for a non member dinner, and you cruise home.

You get to come, and you've scrimped those two cruises together into one AWESOME night with Jim Richards.

What would you rather, two cruises, or one cruise and dinner with Jim Richards?

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.

      Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂

      Cas issue

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.

      Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
