yes im keen also Luke if your not sorted with a car by then you can ride with me but will ned to know in advance and ill put you on my insurance policy

i need to know ASAP possibly costs so i can start buying Balfour's pies for dinner :D:) but really im a really bad budgeter,

also i want to organise my deposit and get it too you ASAP as we all should

Ok well just speaking with Kel, date is changed to Friday January 25 - monday 28. This is a long weekend due to Australia Day. Leaving on the friday, coming back monday, monday being a public holiday, so perfect!

We are looking into accommodation, and will hopefully be booked by next week, so we need definite numbers asap

Yeh the road to Melb is prob one of the worst roads in the country, just look at how many accidents on that streach!! Also prob not the best idea to go over a long weekend, although it does sound like a good idea bieng a long weekend, but just think of all the cars on the road and traveling from melb to adel and back. Just a convoy of cars could be a bad thing, I know from previous experience!!

Oh yeh count me out, Sisters birthday on the 25th!!

ok well ive done some calling around, got some possible accommodation worked out, with secure parking. Rooms for 2 or 3. Its $109 per 2 people (so like 55 each per night!) and $15 per extra person, so split it 3 ways and even cheaper. Parking is i think $5 per car p/night. In St Kilda, so not far from city, trams etc.

Would need to get it booked asap tho, with deposit from each person, so need to know asap.

how about early march?

afaik, theres no public holidays around that time,

and it gives everyone on both sides time to organise.

gives our mexican cousins some time to get some cruises and nights on the pi... more cruises together, whilst we get definite numbers and book accomodation, time off work, etc.

and by then, the silly season will be well and truly over.

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
