Hello all,

Time for another get together :)

This time, well head to Katoomba and stop somewhere near the 3 sisters. 2 meet up points for this one. Details as follows:

When: 30th March, 2014

Meeting point 1: Brays Bay Reserve, Rhodes (cnr Mary Street & Concord Road - Oliveto restaurant)

Time: 9:00am (leaving 9:30am sharp)

Meeting point 2: Caltex twin servo M4 westbound (truck stop parking), just behind servo, Maccas and red rooster.

Time: 10:00am (leaving 10:30am sharp)

Once we're at Katoomba, probably stop for a break, maybe a quick feed and or coffee. Then we head to Balmain, to RibTerranean! I'm giving 20% off for all participating drivers. Best ribs in Sydney and definately one of the best for Mediterranean food. Restaurant opens at 5:00pm, so I'm open to suggestions for a scenic drive back to Balmain. We can discuss this at Katoomba.

Please confirm if you will be attending and also if you'll be attending for dinner so I can organise numbers and our table :)

Looking forward to seeing you all again!

James

I also had a thought for the E85 boys, this cruise might be pushing the limits of how far you can go on a tank and I know there's no E85 near the three sisters or lithgow or most of the way back on bells line of road. So are there any of you running E85 that would want to stop at east blaxland? That's the last place on the trip that has E85 until we get right back into Sydney. And that would be a good 250+ k's worth of driving (from the first meet point to Balmain anyway)

    • I like it when the counter chick leads you out the back into the racks and says "have a grub around in here and see if you can find what you need. I'll be back in a few minutes. Just left me in front of a massive motorised shelving system and 2-3 million fasteners, so I could find a peculiar SS shoulder bolt with cap head. Gotta love country towns.
    • I used this https://osgiken.com.au/product/os-giken-os-250r-lsd-gear-oil-80w250-1-litre/   shut my nismo 1.5 pro up by heaps…. Not silent though. Gives the car character and personality. It ain’t a carolla. If you want silent, put a quaife in it.
    • It's about the same time for me from Bunnings, or the Fasteners. My big push away from takeaway food, and gluten in general keeps me away from the Bunnings Snags too! Weather up here, I've been out for two walks today in the beautiful sunshine. Had a few little drizzles, and some wind, that honestly, a tin of beans and I could compete on how harsh she blows Thankfully, being this bit inland, we're not getting anything much really. Will probably pick up a bit more when/if Cyclone Alfie decides to come ashore. A few areas in the GC though, and south into NSW are really getting smashed though! Right now, I'm just annoyed Alfie hasn't hit, as I'm not allowed to crack into the BBQ foods like the bacon and eggs until the Cyclone hits "In case we lose power"...
    • I love fastener joints, the price difference between them and joints like Bunnings or Super Cheap is amazing, and they either have exactly what you want, or they can get it to quick They have even given me some for free when I only needed a couple of specific size In saying this, I have paid premium for fasteners from Bunnings if they have the sizes I need, but only for convenience really, as my local is only 10 minutes away, the Sushi joint near them is also a consideration  How's the weather Matt? Stay safe mate
    • Wideband is worth setting up if only for tuning purposes. I would not mess with the ignition system unless there's a misfire. HKS crank trigger is popular out here for the relatively easily sourced Denso crank sensor, not a bad idea to install as well regardless of power level on a standalone. Boost leak test is worth thinking about. Oil pressure sensor tied to a fuel cut isn't a bad idea either. Getting the tune figured out is a good idea. Without putting eyes on it and getting under it there's no way for us to tell you exactly what it needs but most likely you're down to the last 10% that will make a big, big difference in how happy you are with the car.
