Good Driving Roads Of Nsw


Neil

Recommended Posts

Bells Line of Road - watch the speedo tho as lots of Police, but still fun at the speed limit and awesome views.

Mitchells Pass in the Blue MTs, Mt York - again good at the speed limit, but watch for big arse trucks who like to wander over all the lanes.

Cliff Drive from Leura, Katoomba, and then back to the highway is a beautiful drive with some awesome views.

Putty Roads rocks

Springwood/Hawkesbury Road love it too Dan!

And one I did the other days was the back way from Penrith/Mulgoa through Wallacia, the Oaks, Hill Top and back onto the Hume or comeback through Picton.

Being from Wollongong, I'd have to back up Mac Pass!

I've done Kanga twice.

Once in a Lancer VRX (Passenger) and then a second time in a 320KW GTR... That made me shit myself...

The road from Wollongong up to Bald Hill isn't bad, except you need some speed to enjoy it, and hence, I no longer do in the line (I won't speed on it) But hit Bald Hill and continue up through Nasho, even just "cruising" with a bit of spirit into/out of corners... Hell fun. I don't find it all that hard on the car either, except for one off camber, under signposted corner... That one sweeps on just a little bit and gets the car un settled.

Hi

If you create a thread you will get interest for the cruise :(

This thread is used for routes and destinations - and its not really read very often so not many people will see your cruise

Cheers

Have an interesting challenge/Test for the driver in everyone???????

National Park (Nasho)

The challenge/Test of SKILL:

Audeley Weir to Stanwell Park service way. AVERAGE (not do) 50kph or better for the entire trip and NOT CROSS the centre of the road once, stay on the correct side of the road at all times.

IF your honest with yourself????? you will find it's not an easy task and ANYONE that claims it's easy, I would like to see how easy they did it.

Cheers, D

Hmmm- interesting, but, Nasho is crap, basically. The road inside the park is atrociously maintained.

p.s look out for reindeer :sleep:

Have never encountered a reindeer on the main road through the park in my life. Have done on the dirt & side roads but never on the main road.

As for surface condition? Who cares & not the issue, your averaging 50k! And the worst maintained parts are in the tight sections and over 60kph is impossible when sticking within the rules.

Have a go if your game???? Either your up to it or not?????

I know of an EH Holden that did the run from Crown/Keira St's intersection to Sutherland station via the coast road (National Park) @ 0300 hours in 26 minutes.

Maybe you would like to try this instead ;)

learnt to drive on Bobbin head rd/Ku Ring Gai Chase Rd. Awesome rd. Used to be quite good at it in my pulsar. Havent much been up there in my S.

I wouldnt recommend Galston Gourge for more than a lazy sunday drive.. its a VERY narrow rd. Had an FD fly around a corner and nearly went head on. Quite scary.

Comenara is a half decent rd. good for a lazy drive.

and PALM BEACH!!! OH! WHAT A ROAD! Palm beach Via St. Ives (Max Brenor). Its pretty lazy, till you hit the twisties :wave:

How about some fun roads within Sydney?

The Comenarra Parkway from Pennant Hills to North Ryde has some nice sections ...

Or Wakehurst Parkway from Davidson to Narrabeen?

    • I have been looking at some setting on the alarms for the Q60 and what buttons do and so and also been looking for details on the alarm in my V37 which is a standard issue with the car. settings like window roll up and a few others seem to not work at all. i cant seem to find exact info on V37 alarms so Q60 is all i can really go off i have not tried 400Z alarm settings or info yet so that will be next. any one got like a sheet of info on the alarm system in the V37 as all my documents are in japanese but i thought the system would basically be like standard through similar models? 
    • I had a fuel smell coming from the drivers rear and pulled the tank out to inspect where it was coming from, turns out the breather hose from the tank to the filler neck was perished. I’m going to Japan next week and I’ll grab it while I’m there  pulled the oil tank apart and started cleaning this crap out of it, some brake cleaner and rags got it looking new again 
    • Hmm. Was quite a few years ago now. I think I bought from a crowd in the US called CDT Audio. The speaker is the HD-6. The HD-6CF would have been the better option (based on T-S parameters), but they were discontinued in 4 ohm at that point in time. The HD-6 is a better driver in almost every other way (than the CF) - just not as good in IB. They still do the HD-6. They might even have a more suitable (for IB) option here.https://www.cdtaudio.com/cdtnew22/products/components/woofers/midwoofers/midwoofers.htm But, here's the rub. I was working in the US a lot back then, so I got them delivered to my US office and then just brought them back to OZ myself. I don't know if they will ship to OZ, and it probably wouldn't be great cost-wise anyway. As to results. They're driven direct off the rear channels of my headunit, because the headunit can be setup to run the rears as subs. So, not a lot of power being fed there. Nevertheless, there's no shortage of volume - the sub levels don't need or want to be boosted at all. The bass is definitely not what you would call "tight". It is definitely a bit delayed compared to a proper sub. But, with the great front soundstage and really good 6.5" woofers in the front doors, I'm getting most of the bass detail from the front and the rear is really only to extend the bottom end a bit. Works for what I'm doing. I mean - until recently you couldn't really hold a conversation in my car due to the fuel pump, and for many years I had tyres so noisy (Kumho KU36 at <50 tread depth) that I had to drive with earplugs anyway!
    • curious to know what drivers you chose and the results? quik mafs, says two 6.5s should roughly equate somewhere between a single 8" or 10" driver. i agree that IB is definitely the way to go in most cars imo.
    • S13 and R32 rear suspension geometry is horrible once you lower it (which everyone does). The camber & toe out ramp is very aggressive, hence it's common for the S13 boys/girls to use a S14 or S15 subframe as the geometry is light years ahead. I'm sure the same can be done on R32s, but I don't know anyone that has done that.
