I'm in, from St Leonards.

G'day Geoff, met you at ISMR little while ago when you took your V in for a service.

Might be in guys, see how lazy i feel. Be coming from the hurstville area if i do come.

Homebush is a good meeting spot..

homebush and parramatta is like 10 mins drive apart.. lol so no biggy either parramatta or homebush...

parramatta is a pretty tight spot for a few cars to gather in general, but if you know an exclusive spot then cool, and no im not talking about McDonalds or KFC joint lol... and just hope there is no event at homebush on the 5th.

we need a time frame also. :sick:

thanks Seth (maybe you should drive around parra one night and look for a peaceful area) lol

Haha , yes water!!!!

I'll be prolly in for the conversion plus my mAte has a v and might come aswel with possibilty of getting conversion aswel

oh as for a place maybe para uws uni carpark :laugh: ??

Thats actually a pretty good idea, but:

1. Are the lights turned on at night?

2. A carpark will always have better lighting

Thus Homebush is looking to be a good option.....or Olympic park? it would make an excellent place to take pictures!, very good looking pictures.

Are any of you guys interested in getting the Language conversion done at the meet?

If a few of you want to get it done at the same time I can knock off a few dollars off the install price.

Let me know if you are interested so I can make sure I have the time free.

I will try to disguise my m35 so it does not stand out too much........ lol

Is it just the buttons english conversion or the whole computer? and how much? pretty keen!

No we don't touch the buttons. But we change the language on the screen. have a look at the video on youtube,

I will send you a PM with the cost.

Cheers

I'm not 100% sure but I think it is lit up At para uni, I remember my mates BMW overheated and we had to fix it and we could see properly into the engine bay, not 100% though it might of been the street lights from Vic road doing it :nyaanyaa: anyways... Watever goes is fine with me.

<<<UPDATE>>>

Choices are :

UWS Parramatta Carpark (a very very large space)

Homebush Level 6 carpark (not 100% on the leval just going by what someone mentioned)

So can we finalise which one it is? i am leaning towards Homebush Carpark.

also got some sick deals of brand new high quality vertini and other brand 20's with tyres package. I WILL GIVE MORE INFORMATION TO THOSE WHO IS INTERESTED. THE DEALER IS WILLING TO GIVE MORE DISCOUNT IF ALOT OF PEOPLE IS INTERESTED. No doggy business.... fitted 20's on my car 110% service and workmanship!!!

    • The time is always correct. Only the date is wrong. It currently thinks it is January 19. Tomorrow it will say it is January 20. The date and time are ( should be ! ) retrieved from the GPS navigation system.
    • Buy yourself a set of easy outs. See if they will get a good bite in and unthread it.   Very very lucky the whole sender didn't let go while on the track and cost you a motor!
    • Well GTSBoy, prepare yourself further. I did a track day with 1/2 a day prep on Friday, inpromptu. The good news is that I got home, and didn't drive the car into a wall. Everything seemed mostly okay. The car was even a little faster than it was last time. I also got to get some good datalog data too. I also noticed a tiny bit of knock which was (luckily?) recorded. All I know is the knock sensors got recalibrated.... and are notorious for false knock. So I don't know if they are too sensitive, not sensitive enough... or some other third option. But I reduced timing anyway. It wasn't every pull through the session either. Think along the lines of -1 degree of timing for say, three instances while at the top of 4th in a 20 minute all-hot-lap session. Unfortunately at the end of session 2... I noticed a little oil. I borrowed some jack stands and a jack and took a look under there, but as is often the case, messing around with it kinda half cleaned it up, it was not conclusive where it was coming from. I decided to give it another go and see how it was. The amount of oil was maybe one/two small drops. I did another 20 minute session and car went well, and I was just starting to get into it and not be terrified of driving on track. I pulled over and checked in the pits and saw this: This is where I called it, packed up and went home as I live ~20 min from the track with a VERY VERY CLOSE EYE on Oil Pressure on the way home. The volume wasn't much but you never know. I checked it today when I had my own space/tools/time to find out what was going on, wanted to clean it up, run the car and see if any of the fittings from around the oil filter were causing it. I have like.. 5 fittings there, so I suspected one was (hopefully?) the culprit. It became immediately apparent as soon as I looked around more closely. 795d266d-a034-4b8c-89c9-d83860f5d00a.mp4       This is the R34 GTT oil sender connected via an adapter to an oil cooler block I have installed which runs AN lines to my cooler (and back). There's also an oil temp sensor on top.  Just after that video, I attempted to unthread the sensor to see if it's loose/worn and it disintegrated in my hand. So yes. I am glad I noticed that oil because it would appear that complete and utter catastrophic engine failure was about 1 second of engine runtime away. I did try to drill the fitting out, and only succeeded in drilling the middle hole much larger and now there's a... smooth hole in there with what looks like a damn sleeve still incredibly tight in there. Not really sure how to proceed from here. My options: 1) Find someone who can remove the stuck fitting, and use a steel adapter so it won't fatigue? (Female BSPT for the R34 sender to 1/8NPT male - HARD to find). IF it isn't possible to remove - Buy a new block ($320) and have someone tap a new 1/8NPT in the top of it ($????) and hope the steel adapter works better. 2) Buy a new block and give up on the OEM pressure sender for the dash entirely, and use the supplied 1/8 NPT for the oil temp sender. Having the oil pressure read 0 in the dash with the warning lamp will give me a lot of anxiety driving around. I do have the actual GM sensor/sender working, but it needs OBD2 as a gauge. If I'm datalogging I don't actually have a readout of what the gauge is currently displaying. 3) Other? Find a new location for the OEM sender? Though I don't know of anywhere that will work. I also don't know if a steel adapter is actually functionally smart here. It's clearly leveraged itself through vibration of the motor and snapped in half. This doesn't seem like a setup a smart person would replicate given the weight of the OEM sender. Still pretty happy being lucky for once and seeing this at the absolute last moment before bye bye motor in a big way, even if an adapter is apparently 6 weeks+ delivery and I have no way to free the current stuck/potentially destroyed threads in the current oil block.
