Keeping baskins on thursday means it's always there for whoever shows up on any given week. Doing a dinner, you'd be better off making it another night that's planned. The thursday seems to work well though, so I'd leave that. Imagine if some poor bastard didn't check the forum and didn't find out no one would be at baskins because we're all at carindale sizzler or something lol. Drive there for nothing then. I vote leave thurdays alone, and organise something else for another day

thats correcto mate.

thats how ive done it for the past year or so with funkymonkey thats how ive done it with Tristan and 32_dave and it has grown to where it is.

Yes, i dont care for asian food even though i eat it every single day. dont forget brandon that your taste isnt the same for everyone else. dont want to be abit of a flamin mongrel but no one really cares for travelling out of there own suburb to try something their not gonna like..its risking a good 15$ + petrol to come out there.

park at market square for what? car park dents? park across the road for safer parking for what? birdshits and the occasional dent and runner???

oh and joe please dont confuse my meets with SAUQLD :P i cbf going to sauQLD to get them involved if they read it here and feel like icecream and a car wash great :D go ahead..

dont forget when funkymonkey and i used to do this it was never car wash then go home..

it often lead into a whole bunch of other things its just due to my cars not on the road and people who have to go home after the wash due to work, usually finishes there

im usually the last to leave..

but i dont want to turn you off creating a meet..if you like dinner then as josh said.. build it and they will come.

please by all means get the sau community together!:)

Yea nismo is right ay, ill wait till thursday and ill bring it up, i just figure we have a good group to start with from the baskins meet. Then ill post it up in a new thread :)

Oh and i didnt mean change thursdays every week john, i just meant a one off just for a change.

Oh and the first time i came down to baskins i was a bit late and everyone had gone off sumwhere already so i know what thats like :P haha

But i think aslong as its posted up on this thread a few days before then its their fault for not cheking really :D and id have said we all meet at baskins and go somewhere close then go bak afterwards.

but at the end of the day its like nismo said, whoever turns up, turns up

Ill take a look at whats around the baskins place and talk on thursday :D

That's my point exactly.

Not everyone gets a chance to get on the net as often as some of us do (namely me... who lives on it). Or what if their internet is out because Telstra are being as helpful as usual and too busy assraping people to fix the service? I just think if you're going to organise something then it should be for another night, even if it's a one off. As tristan said, the Thursday routine works really well. We should leave that alone. I wouldn't mind going out two nights a week on the odd occasion, and I doubt many others would have much of a problem with it.

some of us work, or else i'd be there.

I'll have to settle for the top gear sprints, at least QR puts them on weekends

Onya smity. top gear is the same shiz. time attack gives a lot more time on the track which is why most of us go for it.

Cya at tg one day bud. :P

Now whaddabout the rest of the soft serve bunch?

I'll have to get a day's off for that... Maybe after I've tuned the car after this month. If Streeter's got the stock for the ecu and boost controller that is...

Anyone going for the cruise at all??

Edited by Brandon

Tas: Those catco and x-force cat all come flanged fyi.

Noel: is the whole ERD team going for the cruise? I might dropby and have dan check my fuel pump. Someone mention about having that checked before getting it tune just to make sure its not fu**** and not able to supply fuel at the right pressure. I think its fine though but wouldnt hurt checking.

    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
    • OK, if it idles at 1000+ with the AAC, its not an idle airflow problem. The cold start valve just gives extra air when the engine is cold, but you have enough air without it to idle at 1000. I think you are back to a fuel problem, sorry. Can you see the fuel pressure staying constant or does it drop as the revs drop to a stall?
