did you manage to get it back to Shaun's after the RPM dyno day and find your extra ponies

Yep got it all tuned and he told me that it wasnt boosting properly due to exhaust restriction so I fitted a high flow CAT and its boosting to 1 bar no problem now (made 167 rwkw at .69 bar) so hopefully all going well it should be around 180/190 rwkws. Just waiting for a SAU SA Dyno Day :)

Yeh I was thinking of entering in that but its a bit of a pain having to pay before the day and I think they are running out of spots. Ill give them a call when im back in Adelaide and see if they have filled up, if they have I might come have a look neways sounds like a massive range of cars and power is going to be there.

but i have read this thread there is no set date, no set time to meet, and no actual plan to get to the destination, please enlighten me if i have missed something here lol

Ok read the following :( :

Pokie and myself will be organizing it. So far there is NO set date/meet spot. It will probably be at TTP next Friday/friday after (not saturday coz most pplz like to go out somewhere else). I will organize everything up to Dead Mans pass, then Pokie will take over from there to Kapunda. From what it looks like, its a long drive and there are a few places to check out so IT WILL LAST FOR A WHILE (wellll into the night). Not expecting a huge turnout so don't come thinking it will be a 100 cars + cruise. It will be a smaller group which is good, coz its easier to scare less people. Also it wont be a full on speeding through the hills "cruise" but a nice drive up, so all cars are welcome.

Once EVERYTHING is set out, ill start a new thread then people can express interest and i will send out PMs.

PS: Im sorry this is taking a while coz i have a lot of other commitments and even if i didnt, its the first cruise im organizing/helping organize. Please be patient :ninja: Thanks !

so i spoke to my cousin today and asked her about Kapunda and she said that

the gates these days are paddlocked, didn't say why so i asked her husband

he said they got paddlocked coz people hav been vandilising it and lifting up tile

things to let the "ghosts" out.

but we can still go there to have a look.

btw i have the route made KISIN is gonna check the 1st half of it 2moro night

and let me know if it went good and whatnot.

hopefully it is good coz it's the 1st time i've done it :(

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
