Meh - that site says its doom and gloom.

The BOM (Bureau of Meteorology) says isolated showers/storms and 25. That is hardly heavy rain :P

IMO - nothing in it at all. I've been watching the weather closely, doesn't look bad to be honest.

And as you said, this is Melb. Could be raining on Flinders St and sunny down @ Docklands!

Counts as rego in my book - however trying to justify trade plates use probably would mean most owners of them would not bother.

If you're in the auto industry with trade plates it can always be written down as part of a promotion for your business :D

That said, who wants to rent my trade plates for the weekend? :P

Just spent a good few hours washing/waxing my car to the finest touch. Who says you can't make an R33 look good? Mirror shine baby. I want it to rain, that way you can see how much wax I put on lol.

do we need to hang around there the whole day? or can we come drop the car off go bouts our normal busniess and come back?

You are free to do whatever you like for the duration you car is there.

But god help you if you are not back before closing time - it'll end up being towed to the council impound or something :D

F***ing rain f*** off until the weekend atleast...it hasn't rained for days...weeks even...I've spent so much time on the car tonight and now the clouds open up. Seriously, get f***ed.

I went to a show organised by ET street forum, a guy turned up in a vette with trade plates, asked him if he ever got hasseled and he said he has driven it as a daily for 6 months with them on (screwed on) and never been pulled over.

Well the thing is a cop will be looking for an argument if he wants to bother with trade plates...think you'll find they turn a blind eye to it most of the time. I reported a guy who had been abusing trade plates, police said they'd follow up but 12 months later and he's still driving around with them on his personal weekend car, which is severely unroadworthy. It's only really at night time you'd ever get questioned for it IMO.

Where is the Skyline sedan class?

well there isn't a skyline coupe class Wayne-o!

And, there never has been :thumbsup:

Gotta draw then line of reasonability of how many classes vs expenditure for trophies etc etc.

Can't have a class for every single possible option, just won't work.

    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • 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).
