Go hunting the Xenos up in the Colorado system: the LSF and LPI don't really bother with them, and the Lane Hackers, Outcasts, and Liberty Rogues all despise the Xenos.
You've got two choices from here on out: (1) make sure you've got a neutral rep with the Junkers, then fly to Rochester Station - just north of Planet Manhattan. You can usually find a person there to bribe your Outcast reputation. After that, just make sure to use the jump holes to reach Mactan Base.
(2) Make sure your rep with the Liberty Rogues is neutral, and fly to Buffalo Base. Take on a few missions with them ... DON'T bribe your rep with the Outcasts, since that will automatically make you an enemy of the various police agencies. When your reputation is better-than-average with the Outcasts, use the jumpgate to reach Mactan Base.
Hope this helps.
