Shit! did it just came off because it wasnt tighten? I got that once and was blowing black smoke all the way back home... (lucky for me its only a few kms away).

Yeah I was blowing black smoke while pulled over, couldn't even get it to move, it was idling around 200 and sputtering.

It was tight as anything, I just installed my pod cover a month ago and tightened and rechecked all the piping connections... when it popped off today I'd been pushing it reallllllly hard for the previous half hour or so, out bush on mountain roads hahaha. I'm thinking maybe some new clamps would be a good idea before I head out there again.

yea... clamps or have an extra cover over it. I've seen some that got wrapped up in black rubber stuff with clamps on both ends. If you include the original pipe clamps thats 3 in total!

What happened???

I think my thermostat isn't working :) Temp on the dash board said it was ok but when it was cool it took two litres of water in the radiator. Fouled up one of the plugs and was only running on 5 cylinders. A hose on the intake was split and sucked a bunch of sh_t into the throttle body. Fun fun fun... considering I only just got it serviced not that long ago :laugh:

Seems to be ok now. Keep my fingers crossed and everything else too :(

Sup all. Heads up for anyone that was planning on coming down to visit today I probably won't be home till 4ish have to do another run back home to pick up some shit that got left behind yesterday. I'm keeping my license till the 14th though so we can do a final cruise

/housewarming next weekend? I'll probably head down the spit this afternoon though for anyone who is interested.

Jeez, I thought I had a bad time sitting on a highway service road for half an hour finding my problem..... Jason it sounds like you're having a LOT more fun than me :)

Sorry to hear mate... got everything going good now though yeah?

+1 for next weekend. But keep in mind of the drag day on Saturday!

Didnt vspec said he was gonna organize a photo shoot next Sunday after he got his car repainted? Any news?

Not looking forward to the drive to toowoomba to drop my daughter off. If anyone is going that way around 3 i'll be leaving ipswich then so if you see me broked down... can you give me a lift ?

Not sure if i can come yet but are any of you guys heading out to the drag arvo convoy style .....

You can organize 1. I'll probably be heading there with john and adam if he's coming at all

    • Our Southern Highlands Cruise is proudly registered with “R U OK?” Day.  Sometimes the best way to check in on your mates is by getting out for a drive together. Sharing a common passion like cars creates the perfect space to chat, connect, and support each other.  A simple “R U OK?” can make all the difference. Let's enjoy the drive, the company, and look out for one another. PLEASE WEAR YELLOW FOR “R U OK?” DAY Sunday 14th September 2025 9:30AM Meeting Crossroads Homemaker Centre 10:00AM Cruise Departure Via Old Hume Hwy 11:45AM Arrival at Mittagong RSL Club Meet Location: Crossroads Homemaker Centre Final Destination: Mittagong RSL Club *Disclaimer* There will be a lead and follow car so no one should get lost. If you would like to attend or bring others along please put your name down and a +1 as numbers will be needed prior! This is NOT a race and we will all be adhering to all road rules. If this is what you want please come to one of our many track days. This is an official SAU:NSW event and will be run under a CAMS permit. One of the things that really sets our club apart is our commitment to being true enthusiasts. When on normal roads we strive to maintain good relations with the authorities as well as the public in general. When attending one of Skylines Australia NSW events please try to: • Be aware of surrounding environment and act accordingly. • Drive courteously on the state’s roads as a true enthusiast should. • Understand how important it is to maintain the good name of SAU NSW and thus, treat others accordingly. • Any misbehavior will not be tolerated and you will be asked to leave.
    • Yep, its been down for a while, as I understand it it will be back soon.
    • Yeah I also looked at Plazmaman, but, it ended up alot  cheaper getting black ones through EFI when you also added in the delivery cost
    • Nice shot! They look super clean. The roof rack delete on the black one is interesting. Would like to see more pictures from different angles. It's subtle but could make quite a difference to how the car looks in profile.
