Having the start location in town or near enough is a nice compromise for those who live out North and those in the South and everywhere in between.

Up the freeway is a good start to get into the back of the Hills. I was thinking that we could maybe follow some of the courses that were covered in the Classic Adelaide. For each cruise we could cover a few of the stages. I know the maps of the courses are available cause I used them to follow the rally and find good spectator points.

What do you guys think?

Time: 1pm Sunday 14th May

Start Location: TOWN?

Description of route: HEAD EAST TO FREEWAY THEN SOMWHERE

End Location: MURRY BRIDGE THEN HEAD BK TO TOWN?

help me ppl

Head towards M/Bridge on Freeeeeeway and take the turn off on the left to Strathalybyn. Man that is an awesome road, windy, open and fast. No trouble out that way, generally speaking if you get what I mean, as well.

Stop in Strath by the lake, chat, coffee shops or pub there, and mosey on back to Adelaide via meadows & clarendon.

Adelaide City up freeway to lefthand exit called Sthrathalbyn, overpass over the freeway, heads towards Callington / Strathalbyn. This road is good condition, open, windy, fast etc. I open my bike up out there *often*. :P

There is a Mobil with 98ron in Strath if your car needs fuel...... and a few pubs if you need fuel, but not a big distance really. Real nice scenery in front of the pub nearby to the swimming pool, overlooking the lake. Nice indeed.

From Strath either head up the hill thru Ashbourne and back to Adelaide via Meadows/Clarendon or Meadows/Echunga, or in lieu of Ashbourne head into Macclesfield then Echunga onto Mylor and back to the freeway as such. Or I could show you a nice route down to Myponga!

I'm up for it guys, getting my exhaust fitted next Friday so it'll be a good opportunity to test it out :P.

Mother's day's no problem, all happens at breakfast & maybe dinner at my place :D.

Been on that road to Strathalbyn once at night & I have to say it's one of the best country roads we have around Adelaide so I'd be more than happy to go there again.

Look forward to meeting a few of you guys.

    • Hi all. Been a while but things are moving along. I just have something that I am wondering about. Since I will use OEM turbo oil pumbing, I got myself a new bolt, the one that goes into the engine block oil feed. As I recall (and see visually) this bolt comes restricted with I think a 1.7mm hole? Not quite sure but it was something around that size. The turbos have 1mm restrictor bolts installed, as necessary due to ball bearings and my higher oil pressures. Can I now just use that OEM bolt with the 1.7mm hole in for the engine block or will this actually be too much oil flow restriction and I have to drill it out first? In my head it would make sense for the bolt to be at least 2mm wide as both turbos take "1mm of oil flow". Do let me know if my logic is flawed here, I just want to make sure I don't kill my turbo bearings with too little oil. Don't know if I can trust the saying I read somewhere that ball bearing turbos essentially only need an oil mist
    • There are several aftermarket options available, from not-too-painful moneyhttps://justjap.com/collections/driveshafts-bearings/products/d-max-reinforced-replacement-rear-driveshaft-set-fits-nissan-s13-s14-s15-r32-r33-r34-c35 and  https://justjap.com/products/crank-motorsport-billet-rear-axles-fits-nissan-skyline-r33-gts-t-r34-gt-t?srsltid=AfmBOorQk4xkGUa98kO7v2ePLUiNt-HRrM2AwWNw9mbSIVE1ujBVwY__, all the way up to The Driveshaft Shop https://driveshaftshop.com/skyline-cv-axles/
    • Yeah based on old XRC5964S specs, it looks to be roughly GTX3576R sized? But this 5964S compressor will flow 90lb airflow somewhat similar to the compressors in both the GTX3584RS or G35-1050.. I fully expected the 0.64 rear A/R to choke up top - seems way too small from typical convention - but these are seemingly beneficial over the prior 0.82 results.. Be interesting to see if he comments on the EFR question in that thread - he mentioned in a prior video that BW EFR's were the "cats pajamas 10 years ago", but by the sounds of things all his kits have been using Xona for quite a while now.
    • Yeah it’s still got the oem manual gearbox and clutch, only kinda mods are a blow off valve, coil overs, and a aftermarket intercooler. Also had it for about 2 months now with a lovely midnight purple paint on it.
    • Yeeeppp, been following a lot of the testing on the latest Xona stuff and there are some mental results.  He also went over 1000hp @ 4 hubs on his Mainline with a XRE6364S (63mm) which was also well into the 20psi range before 4000rpm on a 2.5. Crazy stuff. Fwiw the XRE5964S is basically the modern equivalent of their old HTA3582 - would drive nicely enough on an RB25 or 26, but proven capable of a huge amount of power if you want to spicy with rpm tho even at sane boost levels will make stout numbers
