Hey all,

I'm now posting the set times/dates for the GOR SAU cruise :D

Please advise in this thread if you will be coming ... so we can get an idea on numbers etc :)

Please advise also if your from geelong and if you will be meeting us at the Bunnings on the way through geelong.

--------- details ---------------->

Date: Sunday 10th August 2003

Meet time: 9:30am (melb)

Meet Place: shell/subway, on the exit ramp of Point Cook Rd (MEL:53, B3. The exit after Newland St)

Departure time: 10:00am (melb)

Destination: Apollo Bay (via GOR)

MAP :

--------- details ---------------->

Basically we'll be leaving melb at 10am and head towards geelong, meet any geelong SAU members at the Bunnings on the way into Geelong at approx 10:45 - 11am, this will also give ppl a chance to catch up and let us regroup.

We will then leave Geelong at 11:20am ish (once everyone has caught up) and cruise through geelong towards the GOR and onto Apollo Bay.

Once at Apollo Bay we'll group up and get some Fish n Chips YUMM :) hang around for however long wee feel like then head back as a group or at your own leisure :)

Ill have a stack of directions/exact street names, and where we will park at Apollo bay to hand out on the morning of the curise.. i'll make them up 2nite probably :)

Hope the regs and newbies can make it :) (me being a first time cruiser also lol hehe)

I'm in.

Tip for apollo bay parking.

Don't bother organising anything as there is no real 'good' spot.

And the ones you see on the map will prob be full !

Just let everyone do what we did last time and find the nearest free spots.

It's easier. Plus we can just work it out when we get there.

STILL unsure if i can make it.

But i know the area very well... go for photos at the harbour, also 'paradise' if you know where that is.

I'd love to join, haven't been on a cruise for quite some time.

Missed the MAS and meeting other SAU members there, lots of personal life issues as just ditched my gf that week.

If no other things came up on that sunday, might join you ppl. Hope it's not too big cruise as big ones always draw too much "unwanted attention" ;)

Hope the weather is good, so we'll get good view of the scenery...

Even if it is a BIG meet.

SAU does not attract unwanted attention unless you make it.

If there are idiots ripping patches then of course there will be attention.

But we've never to date (since i've been around) had police trouble on any sized meet.

So don't let that detter you

cheers,

ash

I guess so...

Previous HUGE cruise to Arthur's Seat drew quite a few attention from cops.. but I suppose that's more than just SAU members, as lots of cars were not even Skylines :-)

But I might go this time (80% sure) if not have to do something else on that Sunday.

      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

      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

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      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.
