This was emailed out at work.. not sure how bad it is:

Please be advised that there are lengthy delays on the North Shore, Western & Northern Lines

CityRail advises that trains have been suspended on the North Shore Line between Gordon and Wynyard in both directions due to a train requiring mechanical repairs near Milsons Point. Lengthy delays can be expected. Flow on delays to Northern and Western Line services from the City will be experienced.

Bus companies are being contacted to operate a replacement service between Gordon and Wynyard until train services can resume. Sydney buses recognising rail tickets between Wynyard & North Sydney in both directions.

CityRail recommends travellers delay their journey or make alternative arrangements.

Police and emergency services are in attendance. At this stage there is no forecast of when the line can be reopened. Further information will be provided as it becomes available.

I can see all the commotion on the bridge from my desk. I can't make out the train but I can see all the fire trucks etc. looks like I'm going to be staying back tonight and having a few refreshments.

"looks" ok at the moment.

Remember it's school holidays and uni is on holidays too. So just the workers. But yea maybe traffic, sux to live up north!

doodz, no freaking way is that camera live. I'm looking out my window right now and being only about 500m from the bridge I can tell you it's chocka block with emergencey crews etc. the Cahill is even worse heading north (looks ok heading south).

Well that just sucks....working in north sydney and living on the central coast.

Being peak hour there will be a lot of people on the replacement buses.

I guess there is only one thing you can do in a situation like this....go to the pub until the problem is sorted!! If the problem aint sorted, then going home with a few beers in my belly will make the long journey a little easier!

      Anyone running the VQ37VHR with forced induction?

      Wrong question. There's no point in spending the rather large sum of cash and effort to add turbo, without taking it to the "sensible" limit of the motor itself. If you have to upgrade injectors, etc, then so be it. That is a tiny fraction of what it will cost you to turbo it.

      Starter motor replacment teeth count.

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Measure voltage at the starter solenoid terminal when the key is at start and it has clicked. If it is really low, then the suspicion falls on the ignition switch (contacts or wiring thereof) as causing a voltage drop instead of sending enough volts to throw the solenoid all the way to engage the starter itself. If it is a decent voltage, then the suspicion is on the solenoid. Might have s horted coil, or might hva dirty contacts. Rip the starter off, dismantle, clean up contacts and inspect winding. It might not be possible to see if there is a short in the winding though. I have a spare starter here that I could measure the resistance of the coil, as a guide to about what it should be, if you need a comparison. <parts hoarder>No you cannot have it.</parts hoarder>

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      Absolutely matters because, while a temperature change will eventually reach a sensor at the end of a static line, the response time is far far far too slow to be useful. Might as well not have a temp gauge at all.

      When I was eyeing off the 370GT (after deciding I didn't want to spend 30-40k+ to relive my early 20s in an R33) I thought it'd be a good project to add a turbo to it. Now that I have a 370GT, and I've had a couple of chances to open it up, I'm pretty stunned by how much power it makes 🫠 Honestly, the way the VVEL opens it up, it almost feels like there's a little turbo tucked away in there somewhere. It's like Nissan looked at VTEC and said "hold my beer" 😁 Has anyone thrown a turbo into their 370Z or 370GT? Is there a conservative boost level you can run without having to upgrade the fuel system, or are bigger injectors and a bigger pump a given?
