Kool! i wanna c it :D

Hey evry1: I'm back to needing a leader on the day, my navigator has to meet me there now so when we meet at thornleigh then we'll organise who's leading! Bring your 2-ways if u have them as well.

Cheers guys,

c ya'll then.

Dave.

Hey evry1: I'm back to needing a leader on the day
Directions from Thornleigh Maccas:

* Head Sth along 'Pennant Hills Rd' until you get to 'James Ruse Dr'.

* Turn Left onto 'James Ruse Dr' (think the sign says parramatta or something).

* Stay in the left lane and follow the signs to Penrith which is right before Parramatta Rd (you turn off left even though Penrith is to the right).

* This will bring you onto the M4 which you then follow all the way to 'Mulgoa Rd' (about 25-30km).

* Take the 2nd Penrith Exit (Mulgoa Rd) and when you get to the exit ramp lights turn right onto 'Mulgoa Rd' (has signs for Panthers). Construction around the Eastern Creek area so watch for changing speed limit signs.

* Drive along Mulgoa Rd (about 2km), you will go past a shell, Burger King, Caltex, DickSmith, Bus Depot, etc keeping in the left lane.

* Stay in the left lane, when you get to the round-about continue straight ahead.

* About 50m after the round-about you will see the KFC, Krispy Kreme and Maccas signs on the left, turn left at the lights.

* This will bring you into the Panthers entry road, the first drive-way to the left is for Maccas carpark, 2nd is for KFC, Lone Star, Krispy Kreme etc. Continue 20m further ahead and turn left at the round-about.

* This will take you 20m down along side the KK drive-thru road, just park down on the left.

Panthers Security is generally fine if you don't leave a big mess, don't look like your gonna roll someone and aren't playing music loud, don't do anything stupid as the entire carpark is under video surveillence.

Plenty of seating inside KK or just outside. Carpark car security is perfectly fine.

Edit: By the time you all get there Panthers (the leagues club) will be quite happening on the inside, well worth a visit. You can wear pretty much anything but thongs and beanies, or if you are female, pretty much nothing at all :boobies2:

And also is anyone planning to go somewhere after for a drive, cos i wouldn't mind going for a cruise.

Cheers.

Thier is a nice look out just up the mountains (about a 20min drive) which looks pretty cool at night time with all the cities lights which is a decent drive.

I'm guessing it's still on :-)

I'll be there, once i've removed the blocks of mud from the fmic, ducts and the wheels :-/

('lines were never meant to be in mud deeper than 6"!!!!!! - Too fecking hard to clean... piles of mud sitting on all the front sills is wrong!)

Now I know why Bathurst is considered 'rural' :spcow: :zap:

Edit : Although it is funny to see ppls faces when you drive though a town *officially* in the middle of nowhere, and they're pretty much saying 'f*** me, that's a skyline' :headspin:

Edit2 : Have now received true permission, the other half wants me to get *one* donut for her before she starts her diet on monday :-D Talk about a long distance take out!

    • Yucky. Things haven't gotten any better though. Now you have Emerson and Honeywell pushing these massive DCS/Scada things with proprietary hardware. They're not a PLC, they're not a computer, they're a...distibuted PLCish/DCSish monster of thing, that only they can program because they make the barriers to entry for anyone else so fricking high. And their developers are all located in the third/developing world (and India, in case anyone does not include that place in that category) and there are terrible failings of the ESl variety, of the care and common sense variety, and f**king forget about Functional Safety. Not a one of them has any idea what it means to comply with an IEC 615xx series standard.
    • All of the ECU grounds are to the chassis, the IGN grounds are to the cylinder head and i believe all the OEM body harness are left in original locations, im trying to work out if i can tell if the sensor voltage itself is losing any power to it from the very low ECU voltage. But yeah a manual pressure gauge will help in picking which path to actually chase. Also please dont bully my wiring plan i never designed it to be universally understood hopefully it still can make sense to you, im a wiring virgin.  1 thing i have just noticed the pressure sensor in question relays both pressure and temperature, the temperature reading holds nice and steady despite the low ecu voltage but the pressure reading is the one that jumps around alot so maybe it is really a pressure issue? wiring plan.xlsx
    • Gday, Due to not finding much up to date info on this topic I thought I'd make a thread to get peoples latest opinions/recommendations. Background info -  I've got a S1.5 R33 GTST as a fun project car, mainly for street use and occasional drag strip, apart from all the cosmetic things I'll be doing a full rebuild of the engine with forged internals. Since it'll be getting new cams (kelford) and springs to match I thought I might as well get new lifters and valves while I'm at it, the dash says 160k KMs but the engine seems pretty tired, compression measures about 130psi across all cylinders so I'd like to freshen everything up. This is where I'm tempted to just fork out the extra and go solid lifters while it's all apart, aiming for 400-450kw atw with a flex tune. Assuming all supporting mods (oiling, fuel and all bolt ons) with a lightly ported head and turbo to match (yet to make a decision possibly gtx3582r or similar from Hypergear) I've seen the Tomei kits with just the buckets getting around, Supertech sells most things - Supertech High Performance Cam Followers | Trusted Racing Cam Followers Questions -  Has anyone found the Hydraulic lifters to limit them at this power level? Is it usually found that you can just clean the stock lifters and find they work fine?  Does going solid lifters save any headaches/issues with hydraulic lifters in the future? Any recommendations on other things that will need to be replaced, I know I'll need to get the solid profile cams but can you use the same type of valves and springs/retainers and is it recommended to change the guides and stem seals?    Summary -  Basically looking for pros/cons and wanna know if I'll actually need the extra RPMs from solid lifters or it'll just be bragging rights to say it ReVs OvEr 8000 Cheers
    • Ha ha ha, this stuff they had was installing Toshiba PLCs that were made some time in the 1990s, and they were replacing GEM80 PLCs. To let those two talk (staged upgrade along a ~1.2km long building that was split into 4 sections), was a bunch of WinXP machines running Java gateways... There was no way to put something like ProfiSafe in... Most of the HMI machines were WinXP, with Java program, with a custom button board emulating a keyboard... About the only buttons in the operator stations that went direct to the PLCs was the eStop. There was some interesting design stuff in that place...
