WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!!!!!! What an absolute great day guys!! Well done to everyone that organised everything. This was my first event that i attended and i must say GREAT!!! I will try and be at all future events. Thanx to everyone that was there. Pity about the r31 club's bad driving.

I'll echo the sentiments of everyone else so far, and thank everyone who came for making the day the success that it was! We just edged out last years' numbers, which weren't exactly shabby in their own right - just goes to show that the Skyline community keeps going from strength to strength.

Unfortunately a few idiots (and they weren't just the R31 drivers mentioned already) couldn't keep it in their pants and felt it necessary to do burnouts or the like when leaving the hall, but on the whole it's a big :) from the Exec team on everyone's behaviour. Top effort guys/girls, muchly appreciated.

As Col has mentioned, Karen or myself will post up the official funds raised for the Starlight Foundation once it's been tallied and double checked.

Again, thanks to everyone who came!

Marc and Karen

Was touched by the hugs when I signed up, lol. you jokers.
:laugh:
Thanks all I had a great day.

Just wanted to defend the 31 club only 1 person that I know of did a skid and I dont think you can hang the whole club on that. Also he is from d-bay and always does skids. What can you do

Of the 15 or so R31's that turned up, I personally only saw 4 doing anything wrong, and they all appeared to be part of the same group as they all left at the same time, and all appeared to have no concept of "time and place". Thumbs up to the rest of the R31 people, it was a pleasure to have you along :)

What a great day out, I started at 730 in shailer park and didnt get home untill 5 through pouring rain and 60k's on the motorway, my car is well washed now lol.

Is this a carpark in Japan? LOL well its def not one in America hahaha

Any further posts bagging out the R31 club in its entirety for the behaviour of a small number of its members will be moderated. It's already been established that the majority of the R31 drivers did the right thing, it's exactly this kind of thinking that makes life so hard for Skylines and imports in general.

Feel free to comment on the stupidity of those individuals who did the WRONG thing, though.

    • 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.
    • I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
