dunno if you guys have heard of this but my mate in the gtir (what knida car is that?) club sent this.

"Hey guys, as i posted on the Fast Fours forum, alot of us is organising a

massive cruise to Bathurst on the 15th June...

Its for the kids at Canteen and for a couple of bucks each, help out hey and

by a bandana and support sick kids. This cruise is fully legit and all money

will be going to Canteen. They know about the cruise and fast fours members

have been in

contact and got the go ahead.

Meeting place is Merrylands Pools Carpark which is a massive carpark for a

8am meetup, 9am on the dot departure! :P

Alot of clubs will be attending hopefully, such as guys from Redline GTi

forums, (Swift GTi's), RSX Forums (Integra Type-R's and other Honda's) Team

Ground Zero and basically everyone else! :(

Its for a good cause and i hope to see as many Club GTi Sydney Members going

and enjoying the day out..

Once reaching Bathurst, there will be a BBQ on top of the mountain

(hopefully as we are organising it a.t.m) and as part of the deal with

Canteen, they requested some police presence at the meeting point so we all

dont act like hoons, which i have contacted and have been giving the go

ahead and its all cool, however, you drive like a fool and **** up, you get

caught simple as that. yes i know, the cops, but hey, its part of the deal!

:):) and cops love to help out the kids as much as we do anyway so it all

should be good! :)

For more details, log onto the fast fours forums, on

http://forums.fastfours.com.au and check out the clubs/events section!"

shall we go? Dan?

Hey Guys,

I think that this would be a good opportunity to;

A) Help some Kids for a good cause

B) Spread the word about the club and

C) Show the Cops that Skylines are WELL BEHAVED when on the road.

I'll look into it or help bigvis look into it.

Keep posting if your coming.

Hi Mark,

My name is Dan, I'm the "official SAU events" coordinator. I have posted already in the fast fours forums but feel free to take control of this one if you want... I have plenty happening atm so any help would be appreaciated.

Prankster... would you like to handle this one... or will we give it to our membership guru?

The attention from the police was my concern also, however because its not a big holiday weekend I doubt there will be much un-necessary attention.

Also there will be alot of cars, so safety in numbers.

As for membership, already on the case. For those who are reading whom are yet to sign up as members of the fantastic skylines nsw club, then you should. PM me and we can discuss.

    • 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
