So, another new year is upon us,

which means another Summernats is upon us,

which means than stuff happening in Braddon and the city every night is, err, upon us.

Anyway, as with the last couple of years, we'll be out to check out what's happening.

So, to kick off, Frink and myself will be heading out tonight (probably every night). Tonight will be the quieter night of the bunch but Nats Wednesday is usually about 50x busier than Braddon on a normal Friday night anyways.

We shall be at the museum at 8:30 thhis evening if anyone wants a common spot to meet up and we can head in from there, maybe do a quick round to see where the best spots are, then park and go in for a proper look.

In the past we've found it's not best to drive round all the time, it's easier to attract the attention of the po po even though you're not doing anything wrong and you tend to see more on foot anyway.

Any takers - museum at 8:30.

Pretty good, got off to a quiet start though

Luke and I got there at 8:30, no one there so he went home, I hung around with Bullbar, Stinkypoo & GT-Passage, we headed back in and it was picking up. Plenty of nice cars driving around, you more or less couldn't park on Lonsdale St when it was at it's busiest.

We ended up leaving around 11:30, so yeah it ended up being pretty good.

Few Skylines about, including a horn Bayside Blue R34 GT-R with gold GT-C's.

Tonight should be much busier though.

Ok, we're going to try and get into the city around 7 tonight, to try and get a park on Lonsdale St.

We'll swing past the museum around then to see if anyone wants to join us a bit earlier.

so how was tonight? I was in town earlier in the arvo and saw a few random cars.. got yelled at by some guys in a ute LOL.. not much happening that early though..

What's the go for tomorrow night? I might come along.

Frink and I are thinking of getting in there about 6pm tonight.

We'll trying to get the same parking spots as last night, for anyone that's coming and wasn't there last night, it's the main roundabout in the middle of Braddon, and we're going to try and get the spots on the corner in front of the used car place opposite Gregorys Ford. The parking spots there are pretty good and it's minimal fuss if you need to leave.

Oh, and PS - Ignition DVD is meant to be out tonight too...

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
