^^ i would to.

but its good that they didnt go to far with things.

shows, if we do the right thing (behave) the police will start to realise that we are not the ''typical'' ''hoon'' import drivers

meh, im just a whore, never mind me

Edited by craig R33

its true craig and as kellie said i think..

we are an australian wide clud cruising all the time! we keep it sensible and if anyone messes up they will be reported...

and hence y kellie gives her name out as the organiser over the cruise! to show them we are dead set about keeping it safe and under control!

wow i think this is one of my few quality posts! hahaha

Know how you feel there Craig (sick as a dog part!) Good to hear you had a great cruise everyone, glad I didn't make it now, if I didn't get defected last weekend I sure as shit would have tonight :bunny:

Night all :P

Yeah, i was down arndale way. There was a holdup of some sort at the chemist down arndale and were millions of cop cars. Got pulled over by Hanson rd

by 2 old dudes in a police Toyota Landcruiser. Got done for spacers on the rear. Not happy about it since all i was doing was driving but yeah ..... Anyone

have a stock R32 steering wheel lying around??

Hanson Road is one of those areas thats generally swarming with cops anyway (and the areas around it). Our training centre is on Grand Junction Road (shares the same facility as the MFS training centre)....and when i used to drive the 31 to trade school id CONSTANTLY get followed (even in its more stocker form that it was over the years. Would usually get pulled over and asked why i was so far from home LOL

if ya have any trouble finding parts let me know, ive got some random stuff laying around that may help ya

yeh steve 4 more road traffic coppers came.. spoke to dan and jenkies and kel and searched cars!

was interesting!!

copper says "whos family car" hahaha

I'm so glad they didnt wanna check out the family car!! LOL

Pulled this yesterday, not bad for my lack of mods, running about 9psi i think.

Sounds about right. Little more boost will pick up 20-30rwkw but its the mid range that is worth while. Accelerates you to that peak power considerably quicker.

Bugger injectors and tune the sucker on E85 for 240rwkw on the std turbo. :D

Nothing wrong with E85. I'll be grabbing myself some larger injectors and retuning.

Haha yeah i have plenty of plans Cubes :D The dyno i had it on is made for commercial vehicle tuning, and apparently readouts are always a little bit less then everywhere else. Should be getting my power fc soon, so ill have the AFR tuned a bit better. Might look at injectors too.

    • 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. 😛
