Glad I brought a smile to everyones face and glad some very decent coin was raised. I must say a thanks to PK for fronting up some serious cash, to Nene and Ness for my make up and to everyone who reached in their pockets and put money towards this cause. Sure I felt like a dick but considering the outcome it definately was worth it. Helped that everyone was such good sports too!
Was more than happy to donate some more and you did well buddy, props for following through it all.

Great to see we managed to raise a bit given the turnout, and Thanks to Madaz, Damo and Nene for all the organising and Sarah (Salvos chick) for joining us.

Currently in the mawson lakes hotel carpark.... Don't know what people look like equals fail on my behalf!
Generally not too hard to find them...they're usually the rowdiest group :D and there's always several of them sporting a SAU top.

I think next time I plan to come along ill get at least one persons phone number! haha

Was a nice drive there tho, besides some wankers in a camry trying to race me at every lights.... Then the dudes sitting at the front of the Mawson Lakes hotel trying to chat me up then saying im in my boyfriends car. Hmmm. That happens all the time. I gotta get a pink sticker or something!

    • 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.
