more the merrier.... :D

Paul, do you think it might be possible for us to park on the platform like last year? the caravan park would be great to use again :) but no space for parking... is there? otherwise maybe Spencer Park would be a goer.

only problem with spencer park....as you said before, could be busy on a sunday so close to christmas. what is its carprk like? i'm guessing we will need to find parks for around 15-20 cars...

I saw an ad on TV for a fireworks display happening up there on the night of the 17th at one of the parks. (Sorry for being so vague). So they may be setting up festivities in one of the parks we had in mind for our luncheon,

:thumbsup:

you might get lucky :laugh: ....not many 4 doors around.

hmmmm, will have to check it out about the fireworks. well even if we just stay in the carpark at the boatramp, all will be good :P

no car parks at Spencer Park just the kerb spots surrounding it, but there is great shade and has gas bbq's...ill chat to Steve Paul at the caravan park to see if their bbq's can be used by us.....depending on bookings we may be able to park on the grass in the caravan park...but that decision will be up to Steve and one he will only make on the day.

No chance...its now a boat yard...like a car yard but full of new boats...inconsiderate ba5tards!

lol.....damn

i'm thinking if we cannot use the caravan park, we just take or buy some lunch, and chill at the boat ramp carpark.

might be better just to take/buy lunch anyway. might save a lot of fuss :D

sound ok everyone?

Buying lunch will be a pain in the arse, since the only take away there is bloody expenisive and not all that good.

Smallest portions I've ever seen!

We could just go somewhere else in the bay, like over to Fingal or something.

They have a top take away and some great views.

might be a goer then :)

takeaway is prob best

Well, seeing as we are all leaving from Speers Point, it shouldn't be too much hastle to change destination.

also, if anyone has uhf radio's.....bring em along. (with good batteries) :)

Yeah and I think cruising through the middle of Nelson Bay will definately turn some heads!

Of course we could just stop in the bay, but it's all paid parking.....yuck!

    • It was roughly 3.5 hours.    car went in around 11:00 and I was done around 2:30 He did the initial runs, install the BC and then Nistune install and tune.  The best part was sitting in the lobby and hearing the skyline on full throttle at the dyno 😂😂
    • Glad it all went smooth. How long did the tuning process take?
    • Yeah that was kind of the same feedback my tuner gave me.  the boost tee is until I can sort out my plan for the electronic boost controller and what I’d get, where I’d mount the dash etc.  I’m happy with this until I can figure it out. Not a big fan of the A-pillar gauges. I’d like to get a clean install of the boost gauge - something digital like GFB.  Something like that might fit neatly where the ashtray is and look clean. I feel like replacing the OEM triple gauge is a bit extreme for a weekender like my skyline. And it’s not making crazy power to need all the additional sensors/gauges. 
    • I'm about to swap my box to Tremec T56 Magnum F & initially thinking of re-using my DCS twin plate (can get it re centred for the bigger spline) but it's been called out the box will be noisy (rattle) as the clutch is unsprung.  So I'm doing as much research as possible. I'm not so worried about holding the power as I'll go the track version which on paper will hold the maybe 1000hp I make. It's the longevity I worry about. DCS told me they don't use a sprung centre as it's just something that can break. The uni clutch has a very complicated sprung centre. Any one had or heard about any issues with it failing? Thanks in advance.
    • Auto is at least 10% (from my real, actual experience with different torque converters and manual on the same setup) ~185rwkw at 11.6psi (peak!) is entirely what one would expect without a FMIC or anything else on the intake, it does bleed off towards the higher RPM so it's what, 9psi there? Note: There is nothing that can be done about this with a manual boost tee. If you want to hold it steady and gain more top end, well - You will need electronic boost control.....
