Hey guys, can you throw some ideas at me in terms of what I should try and ask for my Birthday. Nothing too unrealistic. I'm not really into ipods or game consoles or any fad like stuff. So what is out there that would be a good idea? Cause at the moment I was just thinking clothes, because, I don't really care that much. But parents and friends keep saying "naaaah" it's your 18th, needs to be something special.. So.. any ideas guys?

Hows ths HSC goin man?

Im half way through mine too..

My friends got me an amp and sub for the 32.. that was cool..

It's going pretty well, I wrote a list down trying to narrow down ideas and sub and amp are up there.

I think I got a diff for my 18th.

I also got a some really good quality towels which I didn't appreciate much at the time but I've still got them and most certainly do now.

A party to remember is always good, with people you didn't expect to be there like interstate friends etc.

What do you like doing?

Working on your car? Some good quality tools last a lifetime and don't go when you crash/sell your car. (like my diff)

Eating? Get a bbq or a nice thai girl. :D

Like art? An etching or high quality print framed nicely. Even if you only 'don't know art but know what you like' there is usually something out there to be found if you look.

Travel? A super quality globe that spins and lights up and stuff.

A guitar.

A coffee table that every visitor wants to take home with them.

That tools idea is pretty good.. I just had this super cheap auto one, screw driver snapped when I tried to unscrew one of the bolts holding down my air box..

Have the HSC on.. 2 exams after my birthday.. Can't drink or do much like getting messy.

That sucks, lucky mine was at the start of the, year. Theres a few of us here on SAU sitting the HSC.

As for your 18th, i to got sick of the question, what do you want, what do you want, but then again you have to think of it as, hey these ppl are wanting to shower me with gifts =) i should get annoyed.

Hmmm if you have a party most ppl (like not your close mates) will part with $30, so just ask for liquar land valchours, or repco or somthing, thats what i got, or better still.

Just ask for case's of beer, or bottles of spirts, it can never hurt to stock up, regardless if your going to be able to drink them in the next few weeks.

sky diving..

nah..Not just yet, because they say once you do that, everything else is pretty bleak.

mmm, thats what were thinking about getting for one of my friends..

we should have a post hsc cruise.. when do you guys finish?

9/11 yes.. nine eleven

I started a thread inteh NSW section so we don't spam this up, a Post HSC cruise will be cool. What will be even better we all cruise to each others post HSC parties =) wooooooooo formal and HSC after parties, i can't wait =)

SCHOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSS :):D:D

Hookers and crack. Lots of crack.

Seriously though? About $700 of keg beers (you can rent them) then a BBQ with heaps of meat - then invite everyone you know and stop when the supplies are gone. You wont forget it

    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell. 
    • Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂  
    • Is this a brand new LSD? if so, have you followed any break/bed in procedure for it? Usually involves heaps of figure 8 patterns, a fluid flush.
    • It's TWO steering wheels actually. 😛 one for each hand They are wheels, and they steer!
