Sorry peoples, we've had to cancel this cruise...

Newcastle is gonna be chaos, there's a festival on, school holidays, possible rain, and a few other factors working against us. Instead, we urge you to attend the Putty Road cruise put on by SAU-NSW. Details can be found here:

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Pu...09-t286278.html

after the awesome weekend just gone and after the good turn out @ the stag meet in syd earlier this year i rekon its time for a cruise in newcastle, me and wifey often drive around looking for photo spots, we rekon weve found some awesome places,

theres plenty of room on the foreshore for us to park/have a bbq/play some football or whatever, then head off for some photos maybe(got some awesome photographers among us on here) would be awesome for the skylines to join as well as there are tons of skylines around here, if the weathers good then im sure it would be a brilliant day for all,

post up what dates are good for everyone then we can all settle a time/place/date later,

hope the rest of you guys and girls think this is a good idea like i do

mods feel free to copy this into the nsw forum for the skyline boys/girls, if the stag boys/girls dont mine them coming lol,

thanks guys

Edit by Mod:

Date: Saturday, 10th of October, 2009

Time: 11-11.30am meet-up at Newcastle.

Destination: Horseshoe Beach carpark, near the intersection of Nobbys Road and Shortland Esplanade (GoogleMaps Link).

A wet-weather back-up is the sheds on The Foreshore along Wharf Road (GoogleMaps Link)

Cruise Meeting Point for Sydney Attendees: The Berowra Truck Stop, Pacific Highway, Berowra (just North of Berowra railway station - GoogleMaps Link)

Departure time for Sydney crew: Meet at 8.30-8.45am for a 9.15am SHARP departure.

This is mainly a Stagea cruise, but others are more than welcome to join us too. However, it is a cruise, and I stress that NO RACING OR IDIOTIC, ANTI-SOCIAL BEHAVIOUR will be tolerated while we're on the streets, at the meeting points, or anywhere in between. As a representative (and especially as Vice-President) of SAU-NSW, I do not want the good reputation of our forums and the club to be ruined by a few idiots who can't control themselves!

This is the latest list of people attending (updated 5/10/2009):

I'm keen - haven't been up to Newcastle for a while, this will be a good chance!

I've got a busy couple of months ahead, helping organise SAU-NSW events, but will see what the consensus is on when people prefer to do this, and I'll make a huge effort to squeeze this in!

I'll start the ball rolling with dates :P

Ideal weekends for us (fat-lad & I) in the next month or so are:

12th/13th September

26th/27th September

10th/11th October

any of those dates should be fine for me

Sounds good, I'll keep my eyes on the thread.

If we do it on a Saturday we should book out Formula 1 at Wallsend and get out for a few bevies Saturday night and drive home Sunday sometime.

:P

:D

If a few people are keen you can stay right in newcastle either at the ibis which works out close to the F1 $$$ wise or if you can hack the hostel thing there is a good YHA right on newcastle beach. If your lucky enough you might be able to score a room with a hot Swedish backpacker girl.

Just an option because Wallsend is like the Penrith of Newcastle. No offence to anyone from the rif.

Also those dates are good for me. The sooner someone makes a call the better.

my prob is if it's in Sept my race schedule takes precedence.....sorry have to go scare myself at least once to twice a month

    • The attached document is fine. I just downloaded & opened it.
    • Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks
    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
