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.

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 :)

      Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
