hey all

I havent been on a decent cruise for some time now and was thinking of going for a run up the Bells Line of Road to Katoomba sometime soon.... was going to leave from Thornleigh Macca's and head down through the Galston Gorge, out toward Wisemans Ferry and hang a left towards Windsor/Pit Town. From there a small cruise through the heart of Windsor and out for a nice drive through some twisty's....

Was thinking of the weekend after Compak Attak, Saturday the 16th April, as its cold enough to make it a nice turbo night, but not cold enough to come across any black ice or force us to stay in our cars cause its just unbearably cold. Meet point as above would be Thornleigh Macca's as close to 10pm for a 10.30 latest leave.

Would anyone from SAU be interested in a bit of a "spirited" drive at all???

Brad

Babak took me/let me drive your old car, I'm still amazed that you were able to part with it! :wassup:

We did a 2nd gear roll on the way home tonight, and the way the GTR brutally pulled away from me when it hit boost was awesome... It's like I was standing still. The 330CI with 170kw isn't a slouch either!

Then when I pull up next to him, the bastaard leans across and says "and that's on wastegate pressure!"

:) :) :)

what car have u got merli ?

mate, considering his avatar is a BMW badge, and he just posted right above you about driving his 330CI I think I will hazzard a guess and say that merli in fact drives a school bus and has a carrera GT for weekends.

      App to track mods, repairs etc.

      Hey everyone, just wanted to let you know about an app I use to track the modifications, repairs, servicing etc I do to my R33 GTR. You might like to use it as well. I'm biased because my son just wrote and released it! But I think you might find it useful to... https://trackmymods.com

      Hey everyone, been on here for a while, but never introduced myself before. 1st import was a R32 GTS Type M, then R33 GTS, now R33 GTR - each one sold to help pay for the next one. Over the years my son has seen me modify and do changes to my imports and was one of the reasons for him to build an app for car enthusiasts like us. (He can only afford a 2007 Honda at the moment, but he'll get there!) Anyway, bit of a proud Dad moment as he's released an app that I use and you all might like to as well. https://trackmymods.com

      It will sound tragic and you wished you didn't have 1x exhaust per turbo. There's a reason why most S55 owners change to a single mid pipe.

      Echo the comments about the well preserved condition it's in. It has the aero bumper too for extra points. Nice car, and please keep it like that! 🙂

      1. There are no real performance benefits. It sounds different, and as the pipes are not as large diameter you can claw back some undercar clearance or run lower (if that's your thing). 2. Twin pipes, offering exactly the same cross sectional area as a single pipe** will have higher pressure drop - so will not flow as well. That's because there is more surface area of wall per cross sectional pipe area, hence more frictional losses. ** But of course, it is almost impossible to get 2 pipes that are exactly the same XS area as a given typical single pipe. eg, 2x2" is not the same as 1x 3", although it is close. If the 2x pipes add up to less XS area than the single - it will just be flat out worse. If the 2x pipes add up to a bit more than the single, then it might come out as a wash. If the 2x pipes are substantially more XS area than the single, then it will probably flow a little better. 3. No. Why would there be? What have cats got to do with boost creep?*** ***But for f**ks' sake, please run a cat. 4. If you want.
