I'm assuming nightlife..

mj finnegans is probarly your best bet. Live band downstairs, dJ upstairs.

or theres:

The Brewery - heard its been fairly quiet on fridays lately

King Street Hotel - DJ sets throughout

Fanny's - If you don't mind the odd STD.

Me and my mates usually start at Finnegans and head down to king street later in the night.

How about driving around, ie places to avoid?

If you are driving in town and have any obvious defects on your car try to avoid the foreshore area (and/or near the brewery, customs, northern etc) - it is a popular spot for cruising/modified cars. It is also one street away from the newcastle city police headquarters. I wouldn't say there are any great 'driving' roads in the city area of newie but I enjoy the run from King Edward Park -> Bar Beach -> Merewether Beach -> Scenic Drive up to the Pacific Highway.

Agreed with wedge, The Brewery, Finnegans and King St Hotel are pretty good. I've been avoiding fanny's for the last few years though haha.

Bag Raiders play at King St at midnight tonight if that interests you? My girlfriend is going to see them.

      That's a given!  Bit hard to powdercoat it properly without removing them! 😁

      No detail on compressor or turbine sizes, which doesn't help with housing size selection with that kit. However, from SR20DET mucking about and money torching perspective, a GTX2860R Gen 2 w/ 0.64 (46mm inducer) will do ~260kW on E85 about 1.5bar of boost. All in before 3000pm, which cause a gearbox to shatter. Now imagine the same turbo, on a modern motor with an extra 0.5L of displacement, and heaps of cam timing adjustability (not an on/off affair like the Nissan shit boxes). If this was my car (which I would never own or consider buying, ever!), I would go for a nice twin scroll setup, and a G30-660. Gates plumbed back, no silly shit. Lean on the cam timing, big displacement to create a flat-ish torque curve.

      Do you plan on using 98 or e85?

      This should be pretty easy. 200rwkW is just about the max power out of an RB25 stock turbo. So, 12ish psi on a 2.5L. That boost limited mainly by the prospect of seeing the turbine in the cat after the smoke show. A steel wheeled equivalent would likely happily do ~220rwkW at something like 17 psi, where it would probably be bumping into the usual limits of such a sized turbo. These things have like a .48 rear. You will not need the 0.86 rear. The 0.64 will be fine. In fact, if you were looking at various mid-200rwkW options for RBs, most of them would be in a 0.64 rear. So, I think you will definitely want to be no bigger than that for a same sized but probably even more efficient (at making power) modern engine.
