UHF handhelds seem pretty cheap here, they say they use air express and when I went through the motions, freight was only $5

They have other brands i.e. Uniden as well, but these were cheap

Edited by Tuk Tuk

I use a Uniden that I got for $90 from Good Guys, its great for cruises etc. Ive never had a problem with it.

When you buy cheaper ones though they have really bad reception and are hard to hear people on.

I really like the idea of moving shots through the tunnel too, that will look awesome.

We will need to be careful to not attract to much attention on Friday night. It looks like there is going to be allot of Skylines there and we will be getting lots of looks... Especially from the Police, so EVERYONE needs to be on their best behaviour!

Im am suggesting that if anyone does something stupid that endangers our car, lives or licenses then they will be told to leave, its not worth showing off and ending up with 10 dead Skylines or worse.

Agreed. The purpose of this gathering is for AWESOME photos and we want to be able to do it again. Lets not attract attention of the negative type.

I don't think anyone in our group is likely to do anything stupid.

Other groups that may turn up to the museum and try to show off (like that Falcon from a few weeks ago) are a different matter.

I think youre kidding yourself Mark (Bluprint) there will be lots of us who will be tempted to do some "spirited" driving, even if its just a small traffic light gran-prix or a slight drift around a bend it will attract the wrong sort of attention and give us all a bad name.

thats not what i heard about a certain thursday night cruise a few weeks ago...

Well you've got me there!

I was more thinking about while were were at the museum or whatever while taking photos. I was more getting at I don't think anyone in our group is going to get bored and start doing burnouts etc.

Fair enough, I'll agree with you there...

But remember that there are people who are involved with certain other car "clubs" around that may turn up uninvited and start doing stupid sh#t.

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
