Well worth a look and its free to get in.

My car is in peices and making me nervous with only a few days to go! I guess GTRkat understands my torment from when she was trying to get her car out for the xmas cruise.

Who is coming this Sunday? Entries close 8pm tonight.

Michele (if car is ready)

Mark (GTR)

Rebecca (GTST)

Chris (R34)

Jeno?

Jo?

Donnan?

James?? (you really should, you'd go well)

GTRkat should be having a crack at this too with all those mods

CAMS licence and membership available on day, download and take your forms with you to save time, but still need to have entry forms in (email ok) and paid (online ok) by 8pm tonight.

want to go to this, been meaning to do a climb for a while now...

but im already booked on sunday :)

*Hijack* Hey chris, What did you do with ur 25 turbs? *Unhijack*

Hey Michelle, did you get the engine back together ok?

we really need to get the clubman back in one piece and out there, when is the next meeting?

Hi Greg - Engine and gearbox went in last night, but she's still has a lot to go. Mark working full time and off to Top Gear for the day tomorrow, so stress factor high atm. We will probably put in a late nighter tonight with help from Jeno <-- *big hugs and thanks*

Next meeting (apart from State Round next weekend) is 8th March, then 5th April - so looking forward to seeing the Clubman out there ;)

I'll also make my car more identifiable so you won't get me confused with Reese - seeing how our driving is so similar.

Na we just thought Reece actually knew how to drive occationally, but now we know it was you all along :domokun:

Top gear for me Sunday. With my custom GTR cap thanks to Reece

Don't forget today and pls come say hi if you come out.

Oh and Richard, bring your glasses this time... I still can't believe you couldn't find where I park :D Even you won't believe it when you see and if all else fails, look for the silver F250 with the slide on camper and the looooong white enclosed car trailer.

Time to get some of that sleep. Twas another fantastic day at the track. Rebecca had a pearler of a day starting with times around 80.18 and finished the day with 62.xx - I won my class, fastest lady and was just pipped for FTD by 100th of a second LOL

I encouraged two new starters for this event, both had a ball and said it wont be their last. One in a black R31 and another in an NA Subarua Impreza, they each had their own challenges and the R31 came out on top for this round.

Great to see a few of you come out to cheers us on.

Thank you Jeno for helping Mark get my car together in time and Jo for sharing him with us.

    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
