Itinerary:


We will meet at McDonald's / KFC on Windsor road and from there will head onto Putty Road.
There will be a break at the Halfway Truck Stop which we should reach at approximately 11:30am.
For all the Newcastle folks this will be a good point to join up.
From here we will continue on to Singleton for lunch.

Please remember to fill up prior to heading onto Putty Road. There will not be a fuel stop until Singleton.
To those running on E85, the United at Vineyard on Windsor Road has started selling there.
At Singleton there is a range of servo's available including BP, Shell and Caltex.

There will be a lead and follow car so no one should get lost.
We will also be bringing along walkie talkies to keep the group together so if you have one please bring it along.

If you would like to attend or bring others along please put your name down and a +1 as numbers will be needed prior!

To keep inline with the NSW Government's COVID requirements, we will have the following rules/requirements:
- A QR code will be available for all to scan in at the start point and the Truck Stop.
- All people joining us at Royal Hotel Motel will be required to check in with the pub upon arrival.
- Everyone will be required to maintain social distancing of 1.5m at all times.
- SAU NSW staff will be monitoring attendees for social distancing and will have the event QR code for all to scan.
- Limited spaces will be available at the Royal Hotel Motel for those wishing to stay for lunch. An event will be posted shortly to our online store for you to register/save your seat for lunch. More spaces will become available as restrictions ease.

This is NOT a race and we will all be adhering to all road rules. If this is what you want please come to one of our many track days.

This is an official SAU:NSW event and will be run under a CAMS permit.

SAUNSW may film and photograph the event, for the purpose of event coverage, to be placed on SAUNSW social media sites.  

One of the things that really sets our club apart is our commitment to being true enthusiasts. When on normal roads we strive to maintain good relations with the authorities as well as the public in general.
When attending one of Skylines Australia NSW events please try to:
• Be aware of surrounding environment and act accordingly.
• Drive courteously on the state’s roads as a true enthusiast should.
• Understand how important it is to maintain the good name of SAU:NSW and thus, treat others accordingly.
• Any misbehaviour will not be tolerated and you will be asked to leave.

Thanks guys and hope to see you there!

*IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT*

As many of you are aware, there have been a few COVID outbreaks across Sydney and NSW this past week.

As far as the SAU NSW team are concerned, this couldn’t have come at a worse time, being days out from Christmas, and tomorrow’s cruise!

Tomorrow’s cruise will still be going ahead, HOWEVER, we must regretfully ask that anyone who lives in any of the current hotspots (ie Northern Beaches), or has been in contact with anyone who lives in these hotspot areas, please remain home, as per the advice of NSW Health and the NSW Government. This also extends to anyone who feels sick, or has any flu-like symptoms - please remain home.

As much as we desperately want everyone to come out and enjoy the day, we have to remain conscious of the spread of COVID, and make every effort to minimise its reach!

Don’t fret though! We’ll be making every effort to keep our events running into and throughout the new year!

With a little cooperation and patience, this flare-up of cases will be short lived, and we’ll be back on track to hold our usual events with everyone attending!

We’re looking forward to when all of this COVID-madness is behind us all!

So how'd it go ?

I know it was raining in the morning out that way.

Was there a good turnout ?

The turnout was great, considering the weather in the morning. The cruise went smoothly and the food was great at The Royal Hotel. Pictures are slowly being put up by people on Facebook and Instagram.

    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
