Alrighty, lets say the 8th :) that'll give me some time to sort some stuff out as well ;)

so, back to destinations and travel paths then...

I like the sound of this:

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.

Although, i have no idea how to get there and round that way... CWest; will you be attending? or who else knows that way quite well?

Where's a good meet point for people? I know I and a few others will travel from the Hornsby area...

I really should finish the cruise database i'm making. I think it would make all our lives easier, just think of it.... a db where u can search by destination.... hightlights or even road condition and it supplies u with a list of possible options and a map when u select one.

Well enough of me pulling my own chain.... this all sounds great... keep me updated.

Well i live just around that area and also do most of my fishing in that area so yeah i know it pretty well. The 8th should be OK so ill most probably turn up.

As for meeting up well up to you. For people coming from Hornsby and or Strathfield your best bet would be to meet up at St Ives at the Maccas or something like that since thats were the 2 roads meet up.

Ok, well before i start listing it in the events section, lets get the details finalised ;)

So lets say:

8th April:

Palm Beach vai McCarrs Creek rd and then through Bayview to Newport.

Meet point would ideally be St Ives Maccas at 9pm for a 9:45pm departure.

How's that with everyone....?

Palm beach is a nice destination, but bare in mind the police will be watching you from the minute you reach pittwater road.

We have a good reputation down that way and normally the only attention we get is a drive by and quick check on our movements by a patrol car and thats it.

Take it very easy down there, there are enough commodore driving morons hooning around there as it is so drive sensibly and dont do anything stupid ;)

Also, the road to westhead is a good road, but not for the inexperienced driver. That section of road and Mccarrs Creek road have claimed more skylines than I care to remember . Mostly drivers who push themselves or their cars just that little bit to far.

Yes you are correct Blitz its a good fun road but driving through it should be done sensibly.

As long as the leading car goes at an appropriate pace im sure they wont suffer any casualties.

OKAY!!! :)

Check it out and post your interest. :D

Thanks for all the help with organising guys, we may still need a leader with solid knowledge of the area on the night, we'll see how i'm travelling sooner to the date :D

See you all there!

Dave.

    • Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..
    • I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies. 
    • 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
