Theres heaps of places out west .. I live in richmond and i know of some good roads.

For example we could all go up putty road and bak, maybe throu Wisemans ferry and bak along towards sprindwood road up the mountain past the lookouts and stuff, along the freeway bak down to penrith then along M4 to somewhere like homebush or something

I say go west!

No date has been decided yet, we'll work on that soon... working on a location at the moment.

So... In the lead we have:

1)

best place i would say will have to be  

Palm beach through akuna bay.

what do yaz reckon???

I've heard the roads round akuna bay are pretty crap?... Also we could do a run down the freeway and off to peats ridge?

Actually the road through Akuna bay via the marina called (Liberator General San Martin Rd) is not the best. I drive that section nearly once a week for fun with friends. However the road to West Head is an awesome drive. Unfortunately that section is now closed off at sunset.

If you really wanted to go through Akuna Bay you would need someone who knows that road and knows when to slow down when there are potholes. MOST of it is fine except the section just before the marina if you are heading east. It is a good twisty road though.

Your best bet is just to skip the Akuna Bay section and just go vai McCarrs Creek rd and then through Bayview to Newport then palm beach.

The BEST section of that whole area is coming back from Bayview through Mc Carrs Creek rd. Once you pass the intersection of McCarrs Creek rd and West Head Rd, the road is all 2nd, 3rd gear uphill tight bends.

Hope that helps guys.

Sounds like you know your stuff there man and that sounds pretty good...

can i get some more suggestions off people?

ok well it looks like they have put me on gaves next week so i'll be out for the count for next weekend. that said i also get paid next fri so 2 weeks on friday would suit me perfectly.

Liz, as for my blue passenger light.... it stops junkies shooting up in the foot well.

or we could meet at balmoral *spelling* have fish and chips for dinner then heaps up warringah road to go to palm beach, stuff round there for a while, and head somewhere else?

MYSTR33 ive never been on a cruise with this bunch so we can be loaners together... sounds ok ?

i dont mind where it is really .. im just letting some of u guys know of a path to take :)

The route i suggested is only a ruff idea and can actually venture further towards city, or beaches.

I have no idea where this other place is ill have to WHEREIS it ;)

Ill be there when ever u guys sort it out , i wont bite . RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! :)

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
