Yeah like mentioned closed where hole in the road is... i used this arvo to get home from erina and i get on f3 at gosford and get off at the first exit can't remember what its called but its the one straight after you up the huge hill lol.

But lots of pol pol patrolling it now, even during the week i've seen a few... today was nuts sore like 3 cop motorcycles and 2 hwy patrol - spose with the f3 being a stand still they had nothing better to do.

I still think they should turn it into a one way touge course and charge a fee per run. I'd pay $10 a run to belt up the Old Pac at full steam! ;)

If only......

The locals would bitch and moan if you did that, even if you cut them in on the fee. They were probably the biggest force behind getting Race to the Pie cancelled, even though there's no houses on that hillclimb between Mooney and Pie in the Sky.

Yep they like to bitch, my dad rides the ol pac on his bike all the time and last school hols (hes a TAFE teacher) he got pulled over 5 times in 3 days for random "rbts" - the locals apparantly don't like the noise of bikes too early in the morning ;) .... although late Monday & Tuesday nights is good for a clear run.... not speeding of course :)

Seems much easier these days to do Spencer and wisemans rd :D

    • I've always approached this as, price is comparable between low temp and high temp fluid. Just put in the high temp fluid. I've not going to lose any sleep thinking about could I have saved $20 on brake fluid that is going to live in the car over the next 2 to 3 years. 
    • Nah, the creases were pretty large, and the sheet metal is pretty thin and hard to work out, time alone is in the hours to fix, and would probably have more bog than I would be happy with In other, more happy news, I gave MX5 Mania a call and they have a few clean boots available for $400 a peice, I've contacted Fineline and given them their contact details, I'm a idiot for not thinking of them sooner
    • That really depends on how hot the brakes get and how much of any heat is transferred into the fluid. That really makes it at least a vehicle specific question, and more than like a specific vehicle specific question, depending on what brakes (ie stock, bigger rotors, different calipers) or even what pads are on it. And then there's the question of cooling air. Is there plenty stock? Is there no special cooling arrangements stock? Has some/more been added? In other words, I think you have to do the experiment to obtain the data. And if you;re worried - tie on some ducting?
    • In all the track days I've done over the past few months I've only had 1 issue with braking and thats with my current EBC pads (can't remember the colour, but they're not a track pad). I don't *think* I have had issues with brake fluid getting too hot, my understanding is that when that happens you will have quite noticeable brake loss - which I haven't had.  I'm using just regular ol' Penrite Super DOT4 fluid. I use this fluid in everything and my cars always seem to stop so I see no reason to change, except ... for the 335i. I need to do a fluid flush and was thinking about my fluid of choice and wondering if I should consider using something more high temp? Its not a super fast car by any standards but I'd hate to do a flush and then find myself with no brakes when I get. to Wakefield.  I guess, my question can be summed up as "How fast do you need to be driving to need higher temp brake fluid?"  I remember high temp fluid was considered a must have back in the day when I had my GTR. 
    • For anyone that comes here looking for answers on what can go wrong with gts-4 to rb25detneo swap. The Gloria's awd sump is different and does not fit. The rb25neo from stagea are exactly the same sump bolt pattern and axel alignment. Castings numbers are different on Gloria's blocks and oilpans if they need to be identified.
