too late josh, its been headed that way for a while...

erin - you are over reacting

smoothline - your over reacting...

basically, smoothline is choosing bad words, and erin is over reacting a bit too much,

i like to have sau only cruises, not just skylines, but members of SAU... it keeps to people you know, either online only or what have you...

its good to have cruises that involve others sometimes too,

i just think smoothline was trying to voice his opinion of him wanting this cruise just for SAU people...

from how i understood it, it was more so having craper sigmas and bogan fags in falcadores coming along... which I agree with.

ok, i think its bullshit that you are all standing round sledging other peoples cars, u take a swipe at anyones car ur takin a swipe at them personally.

each of my cars i have been sledged and laughed at for owning them.

when i drove a shitbox 323, it was a shitbox allright, started when it felt like it, got its ass kicked at lights by excels, and it woulda worn a shitbox sticker with pride..... BUT it was well serviced, brakes were always in good nick, tyres were fine, there was nothing wrong with that car that was a detriment to other people using the road. and thats what is the case here. SHITBOX BY NAME NOT BY NATURE.... we are not entering the ****ing le mans race here..... its a bloody lesurly cruise through the hills to establish some ties between other clubs, and before our club is even off the ground, u have gone and rubbed the name in the dirt by thinking we are better than people, we drive skylines, yes thats good, but we are no better than someone driving a ss commodore, or a xf ute..... WHY!?!?! BECAUSE THEY LOVE THEIR CARS JUST AS MUCH! THEY CARE FOR THEM AS MUCH AS WE DO...

stop rubbishing other peoples cars, ur making us look like stuck up gits.

you ripping into andrews car is the biggest load of horse shit. his laser is more roadworthy than most cars i know of, i have cruised with andrew numerous times, and there aint nothing wrong with his ride nor any of the others who are members of "team shitbox" they are called shitboxes cause the OWNERS have the right to call them so, YOU DONT, what your opinion of these peoples cars should be kept to yourselves. andrews car's paint is in better condition than mine, so hang it all my car must be a shitbox

u attack them, you attack me, but not many of yas could give a shit about wether im here or not.

grow the **** up all of yas. To quote a famous skyline driver on a well known mountain..... "your a pack of assholes"

Chaos. When you get a car, maybe you can have a say or even the right to an opinion on this matter. Until then you dont.

Nismoman - GTR's up front, N/A's up the back? Shows what you know. Do you know how often I get stuck behind a 33/32 GTST through the mountains which is slowing me down? Especially in the rain.

These forums are a seperate entity to the actual state clubs, though they are our representation to the masses. A select few with small brains, doing exactly what got the last thread removed, who are also NEWBIES, are the problem here.

Sit down, shut up, and let the pros handle this. It makes me extrememly angry to see this happening in my beloved club. When you have put in as much as NismoGirl into SAU, then you can bag an event she would like to organise. Dont like it, dont go, and dont whinge.

Even though the first thread was removed, this thread has gone down exactly the same path, due to a select few.

Thread closed.

    • 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
    • The video for the servicing and fuel filter change can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44 One of the main jobs I wanted to do before the car officially went on the road, was to remove the awful looking blue silicone hoses. There's nothing wrong with having coloured silicone hoses, but I realise as I'm getting older I prefer monotone engine bays with a splash of colour on the engine cover(s). I cover this in a lot more detail in the Youtube video, so unfortunately there's limited photos of the process. The intercooler, upper radiator, boost vacuum and upper breather hoses were all changed to black silicone with mikalor clamps. The only blue left is a blanking cap at the back of the inlet manifold and the GReddy pulleys (which will be replaced for stock when the cambelt gets replaced) While the intercooler pipes were off I gave them a quick clean/polish too A before photo I do have a replacement air filter on its way. Fuse box covers were painted blue, they're now satin black Another job on the list while the bumper was off, is to add some mesh https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54737966256_99b28bfa30_c.jpg[/img] I was hoping to use some thin wire to secure it, but it seems I've misplaced it and the wire I had was too thick to twist easily. I ended up using cable ties for the time being https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54737131882_c2b7989dcc_c.jpg[/img] Was pleasant to see this https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54737131627_8b2aab13b3_c.jpg[/img] The last thing to do was to fix the front grill and re-mesh that to match but I ran out of time The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R4FsF6tgizE&t=23s
