bahaha, how many of us can now add 'bowling alley' to the lest of venues youve been ejected from? ;)

i mean, seriously, whos ever heard of that?

and after nene told us all to be on our best behaviour. whoopsies.

was a freakin rad night though, havent had that much fun in a while, feels good not being at work on a friday night.

yea we got kicked out, did you not notice everyone else still bowling and scandyflick getting told not to dare bowl that ball while the chick was walking down the lane.

bahaha, funniest shit ever.

i may or may not have had anything to do with it.

oldzilla needs a new window dan, seriously.

and a cardboard body kit. just for the f**k of it.

oldzilla mayb retiring due to the extremeties of driving a car that was designed back when fuel cost 20c a litre. sentimentle value and the constant question of when the f is it going to die keep it going currently 260 z power ;)

$270 for 138hp = $1.96 per hp i doubt anyone will ever beat that ratio

i think it needs a new roof ($600 ish) more than a new window, if anyone knows someone learning to be a panel beater i have a project car i could give them along with some $'s :D would like to fix it up but i fear the cost will be more than im willing to pay and the aim of having that car is to have something i can park anywhere without a care as apposed to 2 cars i feel nervous about leaving

Was definitely a great night guys until our lane got into trouble for aggressive behaviour and forced a shut down on both lanes.........sorry.

I held back on trying to break pins like I normally do so my back has pulled up better than I thought it would.......especially after pushing a 300kg bike on the flat for 1 km then up hill for almost 1 km.....won't be working out for at least a week I don't think!! (Goodwood Rd/Fiveash Drive)

The old fellas showed the youngens that we're not dead and buried yet, lol.

Let's do it again soon........both venues were great and highly recommended........cheers for organizing it Steve.

cheers for the organising steve, was good to catch up with everyone. Sorry we didnt end up coming to bowling. Next time for sure. Photos of stupidty at bowling anywhere?

    • 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.
    • I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
