You sure you aren't describing the buckets way with pothole cover up all along

I know it's bad enough in the truck going along but if you think it's fine then I'll add another option that instead of turning off keep going and just north of Stroud turn onto Stroud Hill Road and cut along to Dungog.

The road starts out at 100 and nice sweepers but once you start the climb would be brake power out in second to the next corner and brake again with maybe a touch of third gear on the short straights

Nah I was talking about booral rd, the corners look really nice on map, but when I dropped street view down there, it looked really rough...

Yeah no worries

Haven't driven booral road but drive the buckets way at least once a week and Stroud hill road probably once a month and every time I'm on that climb I wish I had the Skyline and not a truck weighing 14+ tonees

Nope you didn't meet Kurtis as the car wasn't tuned, it is now :D

The V8 supercars are on that weekend and it's dads birthday on the 26th but I'll see what I can do anyway :P

The 26th is the Maitland Motrfest

Probably plan these as a semi regular thing mate, but for now the planning seems to be going well for cruises etc so keep it up :) once everyone agrees on a time and place we are allowed to start an official event..... :)

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
