count me in madaz up for it 4 sure :w00t::yes:

oh yeah i forgot to post i know everyone does love a bowling session so maybe if your all nice to flick she might organise a dinner bowl night for the first Friday in December, and we can have that as a SAU end of year Christmas do but i imagine we may want to get on the planing of that

Hey yeah im happy to organize a diner/bowling night if people want, and like madaz said, make it an end of year xmas do, that would be great. Madaz, probly too late to book our other idea, but we can organize it for early next year i reckon!

yeah true that,

i recon we organise it for after the event that you me and patrick are going to put on next year

so we dont put too many things on our plate @ once and end up with 2 or 3 half assed events

Trust Madaz to break the tradition of bowling after dinner :spank:

Heslo = Weaksauce :rofl:

Madaz = Softersen :rofl:

:P

so you dont want to come for a cruise :P

any seats left for dinner i would like to come and meet some new people

and cruise sounds great after :D

sure im just ringing them now to book us in

also i will edit the first post but im thinking we meet there @ 6:45 and start golf @ 7:00 then dinner @ 7:30

so you dont want to come for a cruise :spank:

The girlfriend and one of her friends wants to go ten pin bowling so could you edit the first post to see who wants to go bowling and how wants to go on a cruise and i will book for the people that want to do bowling.

Ok iv.e booked dinner and golf but i felt a little rushed as i had to think on my feet what time to choose as the time i wanted was taken. Ok im thinking i will ring them and switch the times up but so far its 20ppl at 6:30 and 7:30 for golf but tell me what you guys think and i will re book for 7:30 golf and 8:00pm dinner

1 hour could be pushing it for everyone to get there, order and eat...

If golf isn't possible at 6;30 or 7:00 to have dinner at 7:30, then maybe dinner at 6;30, golf at 8:30? Can always sit around a little longer post dinner rather than rushing....

ok sorry its been so long since my last post i will try to address all questions with this post

Shaun:no i don't think its appropriate for the group to split and do separate activities after dinner its like going to dinner with your wife the going to see 2 different movies. we will be going bowling next month if your GF and friend can hold out and i am planning on going to see the fairy penguins and no clubs are not privided bring your own :laugh: JK JK no fairy bread will be eaten on this trip :P

Patrick - Lee: i agreed 8:00 was too late for dinner and thats why out of the best of a bad bunch of options i elected for 6:30, golf isnt set in concrete and I'm more than happy to ring up and change to booking

also NEW update

$10 deposit is required from all wanting to attend i am willing to accept PayPal, Direct Deposit and or Tomorrow @ the cruise i will take cash and names

all transactions will be carefully monitored names written down and money refunded if @ the last minute you cannot make it

First post edited with this new information

obviously $10 will come off your golf or meal just this hotel requires a deposit on such a large booking :)

feel free to ask any questions you may have

Edited by Madaz

    • 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
    • It was picked up on the MOT/Inspection that the offside front wheel bearing had excessive play along with the ball joint. It made sense to do both sides so I sourced a pair of spare IS200 hubs to do the swap. Unfortunately I don't have any photos of the strip down but here's a quick run down. On the back of the hub is a large circular dust cover, using a flat head screw driver and a mallet I prised it off. Underneath will reveal a 32mm hub nut (impact gun recommended). With the hub nut removed the ABS ring can be removed (I ended up using a magnetic pick up tool to help). Next up is to remove the stub axle, this was a little trickier due to limited tools. I tried a 3 leg puller but the gap between the hub and stub axle wasn't enough for the legs to get in and under. Next option was a lump hammer and someone pulling the stub axle at the same time. After a few heavy hits it released. The lower bearing race had seized itself onto the stub axle, which was fine because I was replacing them anyway. With the upper bearing race removed and the grease cleaned off they looked like this The left one looked pristine inside but gave us the most trouble. The right one had some surface rust but came apart in a single hit, figure that out?! I got a local garage to press the new wheel bearings in, reassemble was the opposite and didn't take long at all. Removing the hub itself was simple. Starting with removing the brake caliper, 2x 14mm bolts for the caliper slider and 2x 19mm? for the carrier > hub bolts. I used a cable tie to secure the caliper to the upper arm so it was out of the way, there's a 10mm bolt securing the ABS sensor on. With the brake disc removed from the hub next are the three castle nuts for the upper and lower ball joints and track rod end. Two of these had their own R clip and one split pin. A few hits with the hammer and they're released (I left the castle nuts on by a couple of turns), the track rod ends gave me the most grief and I may have nipped the boots (oops). Fitting is the reversal and is very quick and easy to do. The lower ball joints are held onto the hub by 2x 17mm bolts. The castle nut did increase in socket size to 22mm from memory (this may vary from supplier) The two front tyres weren't in great condition, so I had those replaced with some budget tyres for the time being. I'll be replacing the wheels and tyres in the future, this was to get me on the road without the worry of the police hassling me.
    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
