So we are now only just over 2 weeks away until christmas. It is the festive season majority of people have time off this time of year spend time with their loved ones etc...

So what i would like to know is where are you going for your holidays?

If your not going away, have you planned anything to do whilst on holidays? With the kids/girlfriend/wife/parents etc...

Every year my family and i go to a caravan park in Narooma NSW which is on the south east coast about 45 mins north of bega.

We spend 2 weeks up, we leave on Boxing Day and return on either 8th or the 9th.

At the place i work at we get 4 weeks off as our factory closes down so we dont really get to choose when we take holidays but its not that bad as it actually feels like a holiday having a break from work for that long.

So i will be in NSW for 2 of the 4 weeks and for the last 2 ill be back in melbourne partying and looking for a new job as i am so over my job.

Well thats enough from me, So lets here what your all doing.

Simon :D

I've been to the nats every year for the past 6 years i've been in canberra.

If you want cheap tickets, go to one of the side gates on the saturday and the rebels are usually selling weekend tickets for about $70, as opposed to over $100 from the gate. they get free tickets for doing 'crowd control' and sell them to make a bit of extra cash.

Ahh the joys of being a contractor...

Only time I get off are the pubic (!) holidays, and only then because the office isn't open.

So, no road trip this year, although the way the road toll is going this year this is probably a good thing.

I would rather wait until march or so and then take a couple of weeks off when the crowds have died down anyway.

      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

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      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.
