hoorah! Glad you can both come along :)

most likely b at hyperdome meet tomoz, duz my car haf to b clean??hahah dirty night driftin at qr last night, lol

Nah ofcourse it doesn't have to be clean. As long as you're there, that's all that matters :) The show & shine is all a bunch of bullshit anyway, we all know that it doesn't matter how good your car actually is, as soon as there's a 34 GTR in sight the comp is over.

Oh, and the toffees are made and in a box ready for tomorrow :domokun: I only made about 50, but with response the way it has been this year it should be enough.

most of my shots are just me trying to get as many cars in as possible, so no real individual shots (except for the couple of shots where I'm getting ideas for exhausts)

Thanks to the SAU team for the organisation again, and the drive was fantastic.

A huge thanks to the organisers! The drive was awesome, maps well done and the food was fantastic! I must say it would have to be the best organised cruise i've been on to date.

Hahaha, yeah the cruise to the spit was certainly interesting. I couldn't believe that brown magna as we left the bbq area! Crazy! Did you guys see that Black supra with the personalised plates "show car" (i think it was) was pulled over on the right as we were leaving???

And what was this one incident???

Edited by Miss Niz

rooted sunburnt and happy. Big thumbs up to those that did the hard yards for the cruise. picturesqe drive, lovely grounds and good spirit showed by all.

Arent there some drop dead gorgeous lines in our part of the world. So much pride shown in the way people care for their rides. I am sure if the wider community could have seen it there would not be so much negativity toward the marque.

Thank you everybody for making my first SCC a most memorable one and a special thanks to Mik, choyda and terry for helping out with my bov.

Special thanks to our very own Shaney Poo for making the chair gleam in the sun.

:O:rofl::rofl::D:thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

great day out. first cruise with the sau crew. all was very good apart from the guy in the "get sum" r33. seemed to stir the pot a little.

ha ah that swim was awesome, well except for the killer turtles.

cheers everyone for a great day out.

edit: apologies to "goner" i wrote the wrong plate without even thinking about it.

    • 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. 😛
