Yo,

Headed up to Entrance soon and wanted to know if anyone knew of any good scenic cruising routes going up that way. The more bends the better... and also the less bicycle bikers the better (ie Old Pacific - awesome route - but too many bicylces in the way)...

Cheers,

Mike

Old Pac is still tops > it depends on what time you do it!

I don't know what suburb you're heading from, but whilst you're after a scenic route, consider this loop...

Bobbin Head N.P. > Old Pacific Hwy > Kariong > Foresters Beach > Terrigal > The Entrance > Nora Head > Gorokan > Wyong > Mangrove Mountain > Spencer > Wisemans Ferry (which will be OK with your front lip) > Dural > Galston Gorge > Hornsby :)

You can do the above in reverse order; and if you do, I'd stop at the Trackside Restaurant West Gosford (a virtual Nissan restaurant) for lunch/afternoon tea/dinner.

Tons of twists in that!!!!!! Take all day with a nice long lunch.

thats a big as old drive man, pack atleast 1 tank of fuel...

Hahaaa...

Mike's not in a GT-R. :down:

He'll romp it home; 'er so long as he fills up before he starts!

...on 2nd thought... where does he live???

But I would like one... You guys offering?? hehe

We'll be taking off from Milsons Point. I just Google Mapped your route. It will be just over a 5 hour cruise for all the checkpoints. So I will just make it home on one tank.

:thumbsup: Andrew, Im still trying to convince my mates to go through this route, but we're going for a Birthday so come cars will be fully loaded. But will definately let you know if we go through it.

Terry, already considered it mate and would have loved to go. But after my Wedding in August then honeymooning in Malaysia & then organising Track Day in September, my CAR-STUFF-4FUN-FUND funds are almost zero. Just got enough in there for petrol for a cruise or two.

Scrimp those two cruises together, as that's what, 2 tanks of fuel?

Use one tank of fuel (Or a touch less) to get to Trackside with us, $45 for a non member dinner, and you cruise home.

You get to come, and you've scrimped those two cruises together into one AWESOME night with Jim Richards.

What would you rather, two cruises, or one cruise and dinner with Jim Richards?

    • For sure the later RB26 variants had a different setup (6 cam voltage sender?), but the RB25DE/DET share the same ECU pinout/PCB footprint, and at the ECU plug it ends up being 'throttle sensor in' & 'throttle sensor out' (to A/T TCU) ...you stick a multimeter on these pins and you'll find them directly connected (0 ohms) ; I had an pair of Nissan ECUs on the bench long ago, and I noticed this throttle sensor in/out link, actually linked to an op-amp ...which was unpopulated on the NA board, but present on the T board and I went 'ah-ha!' in some moment of clarity... ...it wouldn't surprise me if they changed strategy here though (in the software and actual monitoring of this signal), because they did with other stuff (A/T signals).. and 0.45v as a trigger point makes sense, as that's what the external TCU units expect at idle ; kudos, thanks for that insight...I suppose it boils down to whether or not Consult can display real time data of that signal's voltage... ...in any event, it presents the same target...ie; rotate TPS unit to achieve 0.45v to suit both ECU&TCU, and where do you goto from there? Just disconnect TPSwitch connector and/or that plus TPSensor connector....or do you go for the throat and disconnect IACV solenoid and see if it still stalls? (probably throws a recoverable fault code and goes for default idle strategy?)...
    • I’m also conscious that e85 is slowly being phased out. Not all United’s have them anymore. Can’t take the risk of being low on petrol and assuming the servo will have it. 
    • MR HAMMER has said his piece. Painted up to avoid Rusty Rusty. Actually lines up well. (i.e it lines up the same as the unmolested GTR guard). Turns out the GTR Strut brace does foul on the bonnet vents ever so slightly. May need a little bendy bendy if intended to keep using with a strut brace. So spacing it out to clear the FAST102 is not an option. Annoyingly, the bonnet vents also foul on the heater lines running over the engine. Given this engine does not EVER require a heater, a delete loop is going to be used. Don't worry, the defogger uses the AC. The heater is basically "Do not use the aircon and turn the fan on". It will still be effective, I promise.... once I get the system regassed... Will have to revisit with unvented bonnet I suppose, and suitable strut brace. There's plans to do this and other things tonight and bleed brakes (there was a weep) and put the bumper back on, and take Good Friday morning - Because troubleshooting on the side of the road limping it home at midnight tonight is ... not very smart.
    • Thank you all for you assistance. I contacted Nistune regarding the support for the RB20DE along with my ECU Code (23710-10U00). They do have a map for it and added the RB20DE as a purchasable option now as well. They also added Malta as a Billing and Delivery options as this was missing. I was honestly amazed at their quick response and action, it took less than 24 hours. I also looked again at direct fit options for injectors, just in case I were to replace them. DeatschWerks seem to use a Bosch EV14 base and makes ones that fit mine at 440cc lowest, but also have 550cc at the same price. I tried looking for other direct fit options and managed to find one (also Bosch EV14 based) which includes a plug and play adapter on ebay. Did a small test with a Noid Light on the troubled injectors and all seems good, so they are pulsing properly electrically. One weird part is that they are missing on the same two cylinders as before I got the injectors cleaned. Mechanic also found this weird as he did not label the injectors and it is unlikely to have the faulty injectors be installed in the same cylinders.
