ok I agree it would be more fun to catch up with Sled and Shane and do the Freeway thing. I think Crafers at 2pm sounds fine - we should do Crafers to Loxton in a bit over 3 hours incl. a little stop to get Krishy.

But I would have though to take the freeway all the way to Tailem Before we turn off to Karoonda, so maybe Krishy could meet us in MB.

I have a 1W walkie and can get my hands on another one for someone to borrow.

I will take the other walkie talkie off ya hands Andrew....

Ohh and guys getting to Karronda road via MB is quicker then bypassing MB and almost going to Tailem Bend......I have taken both routes and to me the MB route is quicker not by much but heck i am going to be in MB and there is a BP there so can do a quick pitstop and meet up and refuel for the long haul to Loxton as there is no other BP from MB to Loxton so prob a good idea to stop in MB for 10 mins and refuel....just a thought and that way i can join up with the convoy and will be waiting at the BP around 3pmish

Geez, i am getting confused with all these meetings points, and who is going where.

At the moment, i still don't have my car back, the inter-cooler piping wasn't playing nice today, so that has delayed the tuning. I should HOPEFULLY be picking up the car on Wednesday or Thursday at the latest. But as of the drastic change of running hardware with the car, and being able to get used to it and making sure everything is alright, i want to go in a group with other people. I would also like to call into Murray Bridge and refuel before the long haul to Loxton.

Am I ready for the weekend?....No!

I'll be leaving after work on Friday and driving up then ...

... thats IF my gearbox is fixed by then. :happy: Bloody thing went into limp mode this afternoon during a test drive (after paying rego). It behaved itself on a later drive, but I'm still not happy about it. Its been to the trans specialist twice now. Its had its solenoids replaced, serviced, torque converter, shift kits, the works ... and its still not 100%. Already called them and had a rant. Going to head up there lunchtime tomorrow to see what the fault code is. I've spent $1600 on the box now!!! I could have, should have, done the GTR box swap now!!!

If I make it up there, I'll be leaving after the dinner too ... sorry guys. Been away too much on interstate/country trips and just want some time with Tracy.

Oh yeah count me in on the breaky as well Ben but you know my special needs :)

Abe i am still going to be here in the Bridge on Friday and i also think that a whole bunch of people are going to be making a little pitstop at the bridge BP.....and the road is pretty straight forward from here to loxton via karoonda i think.......Ben said something on the lines of meeting up here at around 1.30-2pm? isnt that right Ben?

Pete just give me a quick call as soon as you guys exit the freeway into MB and i will make my way to the BP

Cheers

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Ahhh, I need the whole head unit. I definitely needed to roll back through and review your setup, ha ha! Neat setup they have going on. I just need a full double din head unit. But I want good and responsive. I might have to review what the likes of pioneer have out these days.

      34 de+t conversion using s2 stagea automatic transmission, engine harness and ecu

      By albyz34gt · Posted

      Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By Duncan · Posted

      Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.

      Wheel Sizes & Offsets For Skylines

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
