WOO HOO

You guys would have probably got over with the soccer thing after the world cup but last night, the socceroo did us PROUD once again, well done boys well done. We're now facing the giant Japan but once again i have faith in them, they will do it.

Anyone know if SBS will re-screen last night match?

Yup was ace!!

Bring on Japan - we'll destroy them again :domokun:

My guess is that SBS are too wrapped up with the Tour at the moment to replay the soccer.

LOL did us proud ? they lost to a country that is in war... and they drew with a country that half the worlds population doesnt even know it exists. did us proud... my ass. we should of had 9 pounts 1/2 goals conceded 10 goals scored.

Who cares, we could have lost, we did loose to a country that is in war but after all this is sport, you win some, you loose some.

It could be the weather, could be anything but the point is these guys did a terrific job to get us back in the game. I don't care what happened previously, i'm always behind my country regardless.

GO SOCCEROO!

SBS dont have the rights for the Asian Cup, Fox do.. so i doubt very much that they are allowed to screen any replays of games.

Their start to the tournament was VERY dissapointing, lets see what they can do now. Hopefully they have their act together for the finals.

im with those 2 ^^^

socceroos didnt deserve to progress to the last 8, but the mere fact that the players who beat thailand were alot of a league players goes to show that the players with names arent as good as they think they are.

players like lucas neil shouldnt be playing. too many damn mistakes in the last match for him and now how is graham arnold gonna drop carney, milligan and beuachamp? they all played stellar games and recall the guys that couldnt beat iraq?

gotta agree with the majority here...sure they won, and they're going through, but to say they played well is a bit of a stretch...the 4-0 scoreline definitely doesn't do thailand any justice considering how well they played, and that they made the majority of the scoring oppurtunities...

good to see the support, but don't get too cocky...they couldn't beat iraq, drew to oman and were tested on more than a few occasions by thailand....

I could tell you now if they happen to play Irag again, i'm sure they're in for a big suprise.

Like said with a line of players like Kewl, Viduka, Craig.......they should have taken us all the way to reach the cup easy but like said, they might need to get their act together otherwise, GO SOCCEROO.

I'm sure i'll have socceroo top on, with the massive socceroo Flag, watch the game of us vs Japan at TAB somewhere, we all know Japan is a tough one to beat in this coming game but once again, i'm behind the socceroo regardless.

then y under a different coach, they played a different style of soccer, played a more fluent game and had people going wow? with arnold he is a shit coach and the ref you have to say made some very poor decisions, 1 the red card against vince grella was not a red, and so many fouls that japan committed werent given.

also it didnt help that the coach used all of his subs by the 80th minute when the red came.... poor coaching not to leave anything in the tank shoudl it have gone to etra time which it did. thats all.

players arent that bad...

They were shit all tournament! They didnt attack the ball on defence like they usually play, they didnt play the simple short ball and 1st time passes and allowed defence to close them in. They didnt switch play enough, I remember 2 all tournament and it was kewell both times. When he switched it Emerton had about 20m around him of room. Arnolds tactics were pathetic. It was even said when Guus Hijdink was manager Arnold would still want to do things his own way. New, european manager would suit the Socceroos fantastically! My 2c lol.

Liam

why the f**k are people blaming refs and coaches? its the players that are f**kin shit!

when are you gonna realise that?

sheeesh

Our players are shit, do you want me to give you a knock in the head for you to wake up! :). They don't get pick by the Euro teams for nothing jesus!

    • Hi,  Just joined the forum so I could share my "fix" of this problem. Might be of use to someone. Had the same hunting at idle issue on my V36 with VQ35HR engine after swapping the engine because the original one got overheated.  While changing the engine I made the mistake of cleaning the throttle bodies and tried all the tricks i could find to do a throttle relearn with no luck. Gave in and took it to a shop and they couldn't sort it. Then took it to my local Nissan dealership and they couldn't get it to idle properly. They said I'd need to replace the throttle bodies and the ecu probably costing more than the car is worth. So I had the idea of replacing the carbon I cleaned out with a thin layer of super glue and it's back to normal idle now. Bit rough but saved the car from the wreckers 🤣
    • After my last update, I went ahead with cleaning and restoring the entire fuel system. This included removing the tank and cleaning it with the Beyond Balistics solution, power washing it multiple times, drying it thoroughly, rinsing with IPA, drying again with heat gun and compressed air. Also, cleaning out the lines, fuel rail, and replacing the fuel pump with an OEM-style one. During the cleaning process, I replaced several hoses - including the breather hose on the fuel tank, which turned out to be the cause of the earlier fuel leak. This is what the old fuel filter looked like: Fuel tank before cleaning: Dirty Fuel Tank.mp4   Fuel tank after cleaning (some staining remains): Clean Fuel Tank.mp4 Both the OEM 270cc and new DeatschWerks 550cc injectors were cleaned professionally by a shop. Before reassembling everything, I tested the fuel flow by running the pump output into a container at the fuel filter location - flow looked good. I then fitted the new fuel filter and reassembled the rest of the system. Fuel Flow Test.mp4 Test 1 - 550cc injectors Ran the new fuel pump with its supplied diagonal strainer (different from OEM’s flat strainer) and my 550cc injectors using the same resized-injector map I had successfully used before. At first, it idled roughly and stalled when I applied throttle. Checked the spark plugs and found that they were fouled with carbon (likely from the earlier overly rich running when the injectors were clogged). After cleaning the plugs, the car started fine. However, it would only idle for 30–60 seconds before stalling, and while driving it would feel like a “fuel cut” after a few seconds - though it wouldn’t fully stall. Test 2 – Strainer swap Suspecting the diagonal strainer might not be reaching the tank bottom, I swapped it for the original flat strainer and filled the tank with ~45L of fuel. The issue persisted exactly the same. Test 3 – OEM injectors To eliminate tuning variables, I reinstalled the OEM 270cc injectors and reverted to the original map. Cleaned the spark plugs again just in-case. The stalling and “fuel cut” still remained.   At this stage, I suspect an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, caused during the cleaning process. This has led me to look into getting Frenchy’s fuel hanger and replacing the unit entirely. TL;DR: Cleaned and restored the fuel system (tank, lines, rail, pump). Tested 550cc injectors with the same resized-injector map as before, but the car stalls at idle and experiences what feels like “fuel cut” after a few seconds of driving. Swapped back to OEM injectors with original map to rule out tuning, but the issue persists. Now suspecting an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, possibly cause by the cleaning process.  
    • For race cars, this is one part where I find having the roll cage bar having gone through a hole in the floor better than the build it up on a ledge inside... The Merc I help on, the main hoop ends are marked on the car, and the jack is marked... Jack goes under a few inches and lifts one whole side of the car up... Removes that fight for long slim jacks for race car duties!   My biggest issue for the daily drivers I work on, is my jacks don't go high enough. The jacks start out on a few blocks, jack it up, then start a second jack under it on more blocks, and then I can get an axle stand under it. My axle stands are presently in use, and are nearly fully extended. The car is sitting with barely more than a cm of clearance to get the wheel off the studs! Sarah's Kluger is the same, as it has an ungodly amount of droop available in the suspension and a distinct lack of good jacking points!
    • Happy? Yep, my to do list is getting shorter and shorter. Either this light approaching is the end of the tunnel, or I'm about to be hit by a train... Ha ha ha   Also, Duncan isn't that far out of town that you need to make a multi day drive out of it. 😛
