Yeh agree with ya there it was good turn out.

At west lakes where i park was a good spot, until the ferals came with vl's. they had rust every where and smoke pouring out their exhausts.

Not diss'n them because did you see the clean vl. the engine bay was clean enough to eat off

that candy apple red VL is awesome... love the paint on it.

loads of shit cars tho, but PLENTY of hot ones to go with it. saw heaps of cars with SAU stickers too and one 33 was trying to give me a run at the lights lol.

I bailed from the cruise around lonsdale way then went home via cherry gardens road, had a good run home with no traffic or cops.. but when i got to nairne a car passed me, then did a U bolt and pulled me over, was an undercover, their reason for pulling me over was that one of my headlights had blown out. anyway did an RBT, then the cop looks over my car, popped bonnet and all. he spent aggggges looking under the intake manifold for the turbo until i pointed out where it actually was. he asked if it was a factory turbocharged car and so i said yes. and he DIDNT defect me! champs!

Good turnout.

some nice cars.

but the stop at gepps cross was too long. and the west lakes one was too long. so headed thru city with 5 ppl in my car. I was alittle nervous.

to be honest I would rather go on a smaller cruise, was all over the shop.

*flick* here - mr rbman, im so sorry i forgot to msg you! Through is i actually fell asleep from westlakes to moana way lol. 5 days of getting up at 5 am caught up with me.

Nice to see a few familiar faces and catch up for a chat. Cruise was a bit meh, bit all over the place - no time frame for leaving etc, people just did their own thing.

Saw the Boost Worx VL get pulled over after leaving the last spot - that cop flexed it out the carpark after him. Anyone know what happened?

Know a few cars got defected as they were leaving westlakes, which really sucked. Simon you were lucky!!

Never been a rotor fan but that baby blue fd was hot!

Was good to see Cara and crew, and a few of the 'familiar' cars. Ran into a few biker friends too LOL

Yeah, Jarrad and Kat are friends of mine. Adelaide is a small place.

Normally they can be found on bikes, same as myself. Funny we turned up at the same spot without bikes. :P

Thanks for the comps on the Stag. :)

Ruby.

do you own silver ROH fury wheels ?

Do you know someone called Jarred cutting ?

If so I saw your car, sits nice.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated. Rb25det s1 walbro255 fuel pump nismo fpr holset hx35 turbo fmic 3" exhaust freddy intake manifold q45tb q45 maf   Re: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Fri Apr 12, 2013 5:07 am No, I didn't. I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.

      Freddy Plenum vs Genuine options RB25

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.
