hey guys just wanted to say hello and myabe give you a few pointers for next time round, with myself allready organised a few of these cruises before for all the siliva boys over at silviansw.com

first off, do a dawn run, make the meet up for say 3am etc. or some stupid time. for a few reasons, especially that there is no civillian traffic on the road AT ALL at this time - every time ive been there hasnt been 1 car on the old pac before.

the route we take is like old pac from berowra > wisemans run > galston gorge hillclimb > back to thornleigh maccas for breakfast. you can also reverse this route, and start with a downhill gorge run [scary] and end up with the old pac, but not advised due to traffic on the old pac. if you decide to go on a sunday morning, make sure you make it at least 3am start because around 8-10am ther are cyclists everywhere on the gorge and they ruin the run!

also, i think cops browse these forums they might of been ready for you. pm invites to select people you know only and want to come. people who you trust driving with. make the group size max 10 cars. any more than this and its a spell for disaster.

the most fun ive had is with about 5 cars only, going at it full on for the whole thing. it really takes alot out of you, make sure you all get sleep! all up round trip is about 5hrs of solid driving, meeting, stopping for a piss, etc.

it is the best feeling, nothing but you and your car driving along, hearing the BOV venting against the rockfaces with are 1/2 a meter from your car, and the wisemans run, seeing the sun rise over the mountains and shining on the water. ahh sooo peaceful... heh i better stop now!

so yer a few things to keep in mind, to have a fun, safe, bacon free night.

-mark

The last SAU cruise I went on (aside from this one) through the Nasho was relatively bacon free. That wasn't too bad a run, although I did hit a lot of traffic in the Park.

But doing a run on a Friday night right before a long weekend on Sydney's most infamous stretch of windy road is asking for trouble.

But, like Mark, I do prefer runs with a smaller number than your average SAU turnout. You can't move as quickly when there are that many cars, and it attracts a lot of attention.

i never knew ford has 300kw at the wheels for stock :)

:thumbsup: me neither!!!

aww come on guys.. you're being too critical!! i thought the cruise was great!!! we all made it to wisemans, and we all had a good run... even with the cops on our tail! I think most people wanted to stick to the speed limit being double dermerit weekend and all1! so as far as most peeps are concerned, it was just the cruise we wanted!!

hahaha.. nice one al... traffic in the nasho? thats cause you were tooooo slow! :) and you went the wrong way to start with! :) :elaugh:

blistc... i think our cruises are more for everyone on the forums to meet everyone else... not for a select few to stick together and do runs... don't get me wrong.. that happens as well1!! its just the more publicised forum ones are always with everyone and anyone... its each man for himself once out there, and everyone knows it :)

pft!!!!!!!! i've taken you on launch before!!!! and all you EVER see is my ASSSS!

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
