silver r34 with autobarn fake GTR badge on it and what looked like bob jane 5 spokers, twice in MV area. badge wasnt even mounted on the right side under the lock ??? take it off tool and melt down those wheels ,,,they're hideous!!!

wine r33 with a kit, no wing, maybe jack 88 too far away to tell

spotted loads of muscle cars and other rare cars - not sure how to describe it - heaps of restored cars etc firstly down at the southbank? plaza carpark on sherriffs rd then later as I was driving home on south rd it looked like they'd all moved on to castle plaza car park (unless it was a different meet?). I decided to drive through the carpark to check them out - there were some real nice machines in there. Almost filled up the entire castle plaza carpark to give you an idea of how many there were.

When was this? I know a fair few of these blokes, and some of their cars are prone to overheating issues ... would've been an interesting day.

:ermm:

Spotted RBWARE this morning on south rd, I was the one who beeped at you Shane in the silver ford.... Also spotted maroon r33 in melrose park, a black r31 at grand auto wreckers, saw a few others aswell this morning .

Saturday night in whyalla spotted a purple r34 with the drivers side rear quarter panel not looking to good looked like someones had either hit him or he hit someone but by the way he was driving I'd say he hit something .........

sorry, forgot to mention - it was on saturday afternoon/night. Probably around 6-8pm. I passed southbank plaza on the way to the beach then passed them again at castle plaza on my way home a couple hours later.

Most of the cars were just parked there and only a few were coming and going. The speed humps at castle plaza proved a hazard for some.

I felt rather out of place in the M35 stagea but I was only there for a quick stickybeak. :D

spotted White R34 REGO "GTT", on south rd. junkfood corner

also a white r33 next to him going onto town

and a white r33 for sale on the corner at bridgestone,

and mine,,, damn 4 white skylines in one place how random..lol

spotted a gunmetal 32 and a greeny/blue 33 on beach rd around 3.30, also spotted a fully sick vy calais trying to chirp his wheels in the bp morphett vale servo while i was filling up :) (its amazing what commodore drivers do when they get embarrassed), then spotted chris's white 32 4door at autobarn lonsdale as usual :banana: also spotted a silver 34 4door on south rd at darlington, then an immaculate white stag rs4 manual at the carwash on south rd bedford park, had a chat with the new owner (literally just drove it off the ship), and then got a nod from a maroon s14 at the blacks rd/oakridge rd round about just before

That was 3 days ago (Sat night).....started at Southgate, 1/2 way at Castle Plaza and finished at Gepps Cross.

It was Grant Zipple's cruise.

I got an invite but was way too hot to be riding an air cooled bike, otherwise I would've joined all the other US Customs.......maybe next time.

Grant regularly gets 300 or more Customs on his cruises and NEVER gets hassled by cops.......the ONLY cruisers in SA that the cops respect.

Yeah there were so many cars there...and I did note the lack of police anywhere. I was impressed. No tools doing burnouts or anything like that - just a big bunch of car enthusiasts showing off their pride n joy.

    • 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.
