Hunter Valley Lunch Run, 29/03 (at last a date!)


Recommended Posts

I live near tuggerah in Berkeley Vale.....

I haven't had much attention to my Skyline yet, cause I only got it on Saturday, but I did get my first wave from a fellow skyline driver at Terrigal....

I would have waved back but I didn't see him until it was too late. at least my passenger waved back...

Tuggerah Macca's is a regular hangout cause of the large car park. I haven't been there yet, with the new girl.

Endorean: it might be best if u meet us near Wahroonga before we head to Homebush on the day as Homebush 6C will most probably be the first meeting point.

And if you do come, I would suggest bringing a CB radio to make it easy to stay in contact with what's going on :D

Endorean: Seriously where do all the cars hang out ? it would have only been about 10-11pm at Tuggerah Macca's and after these 7 or so guys left it was just me and the staff members (why is it coastie Macca's chicks are always cuter than those in the city ?)

RONIN:

well I dont mind going from Homebush 6C, and I've allready got a CB so that part is covered.

JIMBO:

Usually on a Saturday night, it's usually at the entrance or terrigal that they are at. If it's at terrigal, the REAL performance cars hang out near the big Skillion, the RICE RACERS and BOGAN MOBILES are at the first car park near the beach. It's a sad sight.

Ahh the skillion ... spent many a drunken moment rolling down it :D

Sweet, that's usually where I'll go if I'm up that way .... that way I can park the car, chill on the grass and look at some of that coastie eye candy ..... damn I miss the coast sometimes :P

Only thing I hate about the coast is that there are too many bogans out with piss in em who make nice cars need panel beating .... shame shame ...

Yes I totally agree with you on the bogan part...

although it is quite nice, blowing them off at the lights.... Only had my car for a few days at the moment and allready had about 4 'P' Plater d***heads in VN bogadores try and 'go' me at the lights.

The looks on there faces is quite priceless.

Hey, I'm a green P plater ;) Seriously, I know what you mean though, I had a worked VP try to go me the other night. Blew him away on two standing starts, then the fuc_ker tries to get me when I was stopped at the lights, he stayed a good 20 m back to get a rolling start against me .... still munched him, got a good launch and wound him within seconds :D

I outgunned a 255kw HSV thing Monday night... loved it. Then I got to the windies on the road I was on and I embarressed him SOOO badly that I felt embarresed for him (and that doesn't come easily as I hate bogandores).

sweeeeet.. im up at toukley every second sat... have always wondered where the cars are at on a fri/sat night

have been out driving many a times and have only been able to spot one skyline....

hrmmm will check out the entrance ??

the car park near the water im guessing or the main street ??

hrmmm might even sus out terrigal..

are there any runs or is it show and tell ???

yeah peats ridge is always good.

I'm always out trying new places to go on the coast and near newcastle.

If anyone is up on the coast and fancies a run, PM me I'll be glad to show around..

any update to the hunter valley run....

I have just thought, I really need an Avatar..

Goin up on Friday night with g/f, staying Sat night aswell.

Will meetup with you all there, just look out for the drunk guy staggering around a black R32 trying to teach his girlfriend to drive manual so he can get back to the hotel from the days "cheese" tasting. :D

Rhys.

heheeh.... sarcasism is apparent on that last one.... hehe lol.

hmm, you do have a point about the PM bit, so my mob num is 0403 53 6180.

was there anything going on on Friday night, there was a sh!teload of skylines around the coast. I was tailing on with a number plate EvilR34 or something to that effect.

    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
    • My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.
    • There is a really fun solution to this problem, buy a Haltech (or ECU of your choice) and put the MAF in the bin.  I'm assuming your going to want more power in future, so you'll need to get the ECU at some stage. I'd put the new MAF money towards the new ECU.
