Hi Jayce,

Wont be coming up this year :D , going to the Phillip Island Hot Rod / Nostalgia (sp?) show :blink:.  Would have been great to meet up with you all again, espically now that my car is back on the road.  A whole list of mods have been added this year and i probably would have entered the SummerNats if i was to come up.  Oh well, there is always next year :D.  Have a great weekend and see ya next time.

Bugger;woulda been good to catch you up again,Al! Have fun at P.I.-hope the weather holds out!

tryed to ring ya jayce, but went to message bank, probably too late, ohwell, have fun

I was racing at the time,which is more important to me than answering my phone...which is why I have "message bank"-to leave a message! And you're right:too late now! Meh...

o....k..... so at this stage, it seems to be, Jayce and E, Nik and + 1 i'm guessing, and myself and a friend

Yep;pretty much it from SAU,including ib6ub9! Got a few car enthusiast friends tagging along,too...

If anyone doesn't want to take thier car in, then just come to my place and i'll take u in, in the 'Hatsu.

Hahahahahaha! LMAO! "The 'Hatsu"! Now I feel like Andrew has a proper Japanese car,even when it's only a Charade! A nice "japanese" spin the way that "'Rana" is Aussie for...well,you all know what I'm getting at...

Are we driving our cars in or avoiding that will other cars!!! Not so much attention!!

Just a little "heads up" for those that want to bring their 'Lines etc;there's a car park that's usually not noticed just behind Da Cellini's in a little laneway accessed from the Ford dealership side...Just have someone check if there's space b4 driving in-it's a pig to turn around in if it's full!

Rain,rain,go away...and let us watch the cars in the dry! I'm going to the restaraunt regardless,but I have to call to see if they can still seat us under cover outside or fit us inside...

I'll be back to you all shortly...

A top night had by all,I'd say! Good food,top company and too many cars to look at=a great time! Whilst there was a huge Police presence,they would have to have been the coolest,most friendly crew I've seen in Braddon ever. I'm sure a few deserving people felt the law at a few isolated times,but it was still flowing smoothly,without the forecast street closures,violence or hoons happening,by the time we departed(early morning).Thanks for those who attended;your honesty and help making sure the bill at Da Cellini's balanced out was appreciated,and having you there was even better! Those that either "pulled a heartstring",or got "inconvenienced" on the way there;too bad you didn't make it!

Simply, just a great night!

Some incredible cars, and some seriously tricked out paintjobs, not to mention the wheels on 1 particular S2000, who's tyres were so low profile i'm yet to be convinced that they weren't painted on?

Definately an annual even from now on!

Many thanks to the few of us that managed to make it, it was great to have your company!

yeah sorry i didn't make it. had some mates from out of town in the car so i just went for a quick drive down lonsdale.

saw an audi A4 go up the back of a 70's corolla, was hillarious, even the cops standing on the footpath laughed at him. audi had no damage, and i'd be surprised if the corolla isn't a write off.

sorry i left early guys. we'd just had enough after about an hr..... plus the next morning, i came to discover that some c0ck had swiped 1 of my volk centre caps while it was parked in braddon :blink: ......

    • Given you're running a 2.8 and my 2.5 is not really like for like, I suspect there could be a bit more timing you could give it. What is the kW yield per degree you're putting through it? Here's my E85 map to give you an idea, where it was I could still get another 3~4kW per degree thrown at it.  
    • It turns out that Setrab make a fan specifically for the oil cooler which is great and I've installed it with minimal swearing. I removed my 2x 12in push fans from the front of my aircon condenser and wired them into this. My main thermo fans kick on when I use the aircon anyway and would effectively already be working as puller fans through the condensor which is infront of the rad. The push fans (understandably) didn't really do much in the config they were previously in so now they're out. Now we're on to the "Oil fan doesn't really do much either!". Yes I'll duct it next if it does nothing in heavy use which it shouldn't. But hey, the object exists and fits great and is cool. Let me have this. The car is still in the "do my fittings leak oil now? do my wheels actually rub?" phase. I did a spirited drive on them and didn't hear or feel anything. Then I got back home and noticed there were grind marks on the inside of the rims, though I couldn't see where they were touching I got out the grinder and attacked the suspects. Note: I do not know how to use a grinder. Then I realised I had dragged my new rims across my concrete driveway before I did this drive. I didn't think I had damage at that time when I briefly looked...... but remembered this occurred after I did all the angle grinding. The grinding on the wheels in some very specific spots. It's not around the whole rim for example, which lines up with dragging it across concrete more than hitting a suspension component for even 1 full rotation. So everything is currently painted and taped up and I need to test it some more to see if it really IS rubbing, but from inside the car it doesn't feel like it is. In other news I attempted to do a before and after comparison of the heads/cam upgrade thing. Dynos lie, everything is in different measurements. Here is the data from the sandown back straight. Car go faster than before. Vroom vroom.
    • Here's my base ignition. +3 correction to redline when shooting water/meth which is always on. Looking at my old ignition table, I should be able to add 1-2 degree's next time I'm on the dyno.  Let me know your thoughts. 
    • Given what I know now - same haha, but this was 12 years ago with second hand 740cc Nismo injectors in my S15 daily, I was too busy hunting elsewhere for the issue to even look at the injectors, running through some cleaner was a happy coincidence haha
    • Not a terrible idea. But if I ever had concerns that my injectors were sufficiently dirty to be causing me a problem, they would be out of the engine and onto the actual injector cleaner/testing bench.
