Hey everyone!

Its been way to long since a good Newcastle organised cruise, (mainly because all 5 of us have been busy as with other things). so this one has to be an awesome come back!

so the plan is, we will be doing the north section of putty road (as its the only part worth doing), instead of the boring hwy there and back were going to be going on some fun familiar roads to get there, basically trying to roll 3 cruises into 1 without going through a lot of petrol.

The route, makes for a 3 hour trip of fun!!!

SYDNEY PEOPLE; if you want to meet up along the way just say where and write you on the attendance list so you don't get forgotten about, I recommend meeting at wollombi as the first half of putty rd is very boring and youll still get a lot of fun driving time. If not the halfway point on putty road will still get you a lot of driving and shit talking

an epic cruise for Sydney people will be old pac to peaks ridge to wollombi and continuing on with

Meet at 9am, to leave at 930, the drive takes 3 hours to get to the end point which is where we will be having lunch at singleton pub that weve been to before.

Meet point, United petrol station 971 Freemans Drive

lots of parking space, looks to be a very generous driveway.

We will be stopping if required to meet up with people from Sydney at wollombi and ofcoarse the putty half way point. the cruise is only 3 hours with 1 break so if you cant control your bladder youll have to catch up :P

Parking is limited in wollombi so id prefer not to stop, but if need be we will pull in at the pub, we just open the gate and drive into the meadow as does on previous cruises. hopefully we don't need to as id feel bad having 30 cars pull in just to take a piss and then leave without buying anything. PEOPLE WANTING TO JOIN HERE, BE HERE BY 10:10 SO IF WE SEE YOU, YOU CAN JUST JUMP ON THE END OF THE GROUP SO WE DONT NEED TO STOP.

This is the half way point on putty road if anyone doesn't know it. im sure well stay here for a good 30-1 hour talking crap. PEOPLE WANTING TO JOIN HERE, WE WILL ARRIVE AT AROUND 1130

From putty, we will head to singleton for lunch at the albion pub! we will arrive at 1230 for all the snittys they have.

After lunch i'm guessing everyone will be splitting up, Sydney people down putty, central coast people down through Cessnock and Newcastle people through Branxton (or a little detour that I have in mind ;).

IT WILL BE A GREAT DAY!!! IT WILL BE A BAD DAY IF PEOPLE WITH THE WRONG ATTITUDE COME WITH EXCESSIVE REVING IN PUBLIC AREAS, BURNOUTS, DANGEROUS DRIVING.

were going to have fun, on some of the best roads in the state, we don't need idiots wrecking it.

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
