Taken from BP's Trip Planner. I suggest filling up at Tailem Bend, as it is about 300km to Ouyen, and then filling up again at Ouyen, and they both have BP Ultimate.

Of course it is a rough route, I will mostt likely be leaving from Victor Harbor with Rob.

i don't know why i bother sometimes, obviously extra fuel stops can be thrown in along the way

ok awesome Ryan

does everyone realise that i will be trying to head out @ 5am in the morning so we can try to be there about 3:30pm

straight up the freeway fuel stop @ horsham then all the way to destination

Adelaide > Horsham 429km's 4hr 56min as per google maps >>Here<<

Horsham > Shepparton 332km's 4hr 44min as per google maps >>Here<<

Just a note, theres a few of the SA drift boys that will be with us for the start of the treck to Calder park drift attack on the same weekend heading out friday morning. A big South Australian invasion indeed

So did we confirm a meet point for us southerners? I know there was talk of Mt Barker?

I will be booting up thru Upper sturt to join the freeway at Crafers... I will most likely have a brief stop at Tailem bend as driving at that time of day will require caffeine...lots of caffeine.

or red bull maybe a cafe latte with a shot of red bull :D

naw no time was set for meeting @ 6:30 tailem maybe meet @ tailem and depart tailem @ 6:45 (thereabouts once everyone has fueled done a pit stop got coffee and drinks)

i assume 1.5 hours would give us enough to to get there Josh?

remember a lot of this trip will be play it by ear

so are people thinking via ouyen or Horsham. i have done both ways several times and not much differance. the road off to horsham involves a bit of backtracking near Murtoa as not on the intersection. Murtoa to St Arnuad is a bit rough but very rarely any traffic.

if i was driving id give Ouyen a miss and go via horsham

    • Hi GTSBoy, Excuse my ignorance but what does a "Bad" Knee point mean ? 
    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
