F*** the rain boys, that's what wax is for. I gave my car a sprinkle off lastnight and the water just bounced right off the inpenetrable fortress of wax. Muhahahahaha.

Seriously though, if this shit starts properly/torrentially bucketing down and therefore no foot traffic / no fun, do we still have to stay to the end or can we close the show early?

good point bird's .. . . But i think council has made it clear to Ash that only within those times car's are moving.

I just got told no work tomorrow. So might be down. Enter will see on weather due to bird's comment about cars there for no reason :D

That's true and fair enough. Unless it's pissing down in the morning I'll be coming...I don't mind isolated showers here and there, it's to be expected throughout the day...but if it's gonna be consistent rain we'll be the only ones looking at our cars...either from their interiors or from the inside of a restaurant/cafe :D

Forecast not looking too bad...atleast for the morning...

From BOM:

Forecast for Saturday

Cloud increasing with areas of rain developing later in the afternoon. The chance of a thunderstorm. Winds northwest to southwesterly and averaging 15 to 20 km/h, becoming light during the afternoon. City: Rain periods developing. Min 18 Max 23.

So as i've said all along, no really bad weather issues for us.

So if we can move on from the weather and focus on a good event, that would be great!

If something drastic happens weather wise tomorrow, i will deal with it tomorrow.

Very glad youre staying strong with this Ash, a little bit of rain never hurt no one, but id thought id check here before I go and spend then next few hours getting my entrant ready :)

See you all there!

is it just me who left car detailing till the last min lol

LOL man is there anything better to do on a Friday night other than polish your ride while sippin ice cold beers with good company?

I think not. You there with new wheels on? Me too. I got a secret weapon to unleash :)

P.S you cant go past Meguiars Gold Class Dan.

    • 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.
