Hello fellow forum members

When: July 20th 2013

Meet up

Time: 9:30am

Departure: 10:30am

Where: Red Rooster Carpark M4 twin servos Eastern Creek Westbound

Where to: Megalong Rd Megalong Valley

Details:

We will leave the meet up point around 10:30am, be sure to either fill up before we leave or fill up at the caltex there at the meeting point. maybe grab some brekky from maccas if your hungry.

From there we will cruise down the m4 heading up towards the blue mountains, dont worry we will go this way i know its not as fun when we get to Blackheath turn off we then follow the signs to Megalong Rd, Megalong valley. For those who dont know where this is or what this is trust me, it is one of the roads that I have had the most fun cruising in. Heaps of twist and turns going down hill. This hill is very steep and very twisty and some parts do not have barriers so please be sensable going down the mountain.

when we get to the bottom of the hill its a big straight down the hill, please behave at this part because the last thing we want is for the cottage down the hill to call the boys in blue because we cant behave ourselves. At the bottom of the hill there is cottage that we can park and have lunch, they make some awesome home made pies, they are bit pricey so bring cash but the food is worth it plus they are so far from town and we are supporting the community at megalong, other than that please enjoy a fun cruise day out.

Please behave your self during this cruise as you are representing a respectable forum. (also there will be other forums invited aswell)

Make sure you give the Tearooms a call a full week before you go with your expected numbers so that they can put on extra staff for the day and order in more food, it's only a tiny kitchen.

Yep already onto that...called them and they told me to call a week before the cruise. hopefully we can get some good numbers for this cruise,

wow, looks like a good turn out if everyone shows.

and a great variety

yea it sure does looks like a great variety.....hopefully everyone shows....this is my first time organizing a cruise hopefully all turns out well, if this one turns out ok i will organise another cruise in the future....

Each of us "organisers" started somewhere - just like yourself :)

    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
    • What ECU are you running? This is probably the biggest question. If it's a PowerFC, I'd probably change the ECU and get something newer that will handle the injectors in a nicer way.
