Currently undecided between the 13th or 20th of January (Both Sundays). What suits everyone best. I am find for either dates. I will choose the date that most prefer and a decision will be made within the next week.

Regarding the destination, I have an awesome destination but it IS a full tank round trip. I could probably dumb it down a bit, but the full tank cruise will be really enjoyable and liked by most. It also involves a small 100m drive on a dirt road to get to the camp site, I hope no-one should have an issue with that (mine is lowish and that road is no problems)

I am planning a meet up time of around 11am with a depart of 12 noon. The meet spot is going to be in the SE suburbs around Nunawading. We will have a petrol stop on the way at BP and it will be a 2h drive to get to the camp site. After maybe 2h at the site (includes parking, fire starting, cooking, talking, etc) we will head off again with an expected return to Melbourne of 6pm.

There will be winding roads on the way there, winding roads there and winding roads on the way back. I again assume everyone will be down with that.

I will update this post with the final details in a weeks time when we settle on what date we want it on.

So now, expressions of interest and best dates for all.

Dates are fine with me....my only request would be a central location..maybe Albert Park lake or similar as I would be more interested in a get together rather than a long drive anywhere.

Bugga! All of Jan is out for me due to my partner working and myself looking after our daughter (and she doesn't love the car that much!)

I think a mid year GOR run would be good so I'll try to raise the question later in the New Year.

Have fun guys! (Any VL's going AC? :D )

Cheers

Luke

    • Hmm. Yes. I should have been clearer. 1000s for Haltech, for extra headroom. 725s for Nistune. You might even be OK with 640s, but if the possible power ends up much more than 300 rwkW you will run out of headroom on the 640s. That would probably be OK and a signal to not push it to that sort of power with Nistune anyway. At that level you probably do want to be thinking about engine protection functions. Oh, and all of that presumes 98 only, not E85. Well....the 1000s would allow you to run E85 at ~300rwkW territory, again, maybe sort of running out of headroom. Hard to tell with E85 - depends on the tuner as to how rich they like to set it up.
    • Yes.  The only scenario I can imagine when the answer isn't yes, is if you drive like there is highway patrol behind you at all times.  If your car currently runs, enjoy it and keep saving. Better costs more, keep saving until you can budget the better ECU. It's worth it.  Nope. Plenty of us making >300kw on unopened motors. Mine is unopened and makes about 350kw if I turn everything up, its fine (lots of caveats here, how the car will be used/abused, how long you expect the engine to last between rebuilds, how has the engine been maintained prior to coming into your ownership, etc etc).   
    • Sorry just wanting to clarify, at this power goal, which should I be going? Also, More info regarding suspension, the rear upper camber arms were used to get the camber back to i believe around -0.5 ~ -1 degree (@ Road and Race in Rydalmere), I forgot the exact figure, but ALOT less camber than what it came originally which was like -2.5degrees. Are the traction arms still recommended? The bilsteins from SydneyKid, they've got 400lb/in fronts & 275/in in the rear, revalved to his specs. Intercooler, I'm just having a look at some on Rakuten.jp and some other japanese sites. Might get something from back there, GReddy, Blitz or HPI, all crossflow. Looking at roughly $450-$500 AUD + shipping... Theres not many choices except that chinese branded Justjap unless you go for blitz return flow. Yeah, only downside with Haltech is the price ahhaha, so expensive, and with all the sensors if I go that route... $$$$$ yeesh. Are headstuds/gaskets needed for <300akw?
    • Haltech fanboi reporting in. Buy the Haltech! 
    • You can try shoving a borescope down there to see what's up.
