I will probably come too.

What time will we make it home? I've got work tommorow at 6am and city to surf on Sunday - will need some sleep.

my money is on only 20% of the list of names will turn up. 90% of those who do turn up will be the regulars like Tosh and Nick.

Don't be so sure about that.... i'll be out just alittle later than normal. I'll just clean up the leftovers :bahaha:

Was a good cruise people, I must say the number of cars was awesome and the road was just plain sexy. I have not had the chance to read the other 130 posts in this thread but blitz, daz and those who orgainsed it did very well. I had a fantastic time... Good thing I put those new spark plugs in, as the drive was alot more enjoyable with an engine that revs so damm smooth. Just need new tyres now....

Did anyone get photos? I would love to stick them up in the gallery.. If you did ICQ or email me.

Thanks for the comments there Mark.

Who was the person that waits until we are on the ferry crossing over at Wisemans to ask if theres anywhere to get fuel :P

Sorry about the fuel issues everyone. I wasn't feeling the best Friday night and it was a last minute decision I was coming.

I enjoyed the cruise. Pity i'm always the slowest on the way home and this time lost contact with the group.

That was the first time i've been on that barge thing that goes over the river.

To tell you the truth Tosh, hardly ever.

You might have met my disabled sister on the Terigal cruise when Monnie got harrased by the boys in blue. She is disabled because of a car crash and hence I am careful.

A guy I work with who is into Jap imports has a joke with me because I never/hardly ever give it any.

He drives an older soarer with the 3L twin turbo (he has converted it to single turbo).

I guess whoever gets the car after i've got bored with it will get a car that hasn't been thrashed in Australia - never know what kind of life it had in Japan.

I just enjoy the potential it has of going fast.

    • 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.
