Well here is an update,

It looks like we will be meeting at probably 6c and either Grey Gum or macca's at windsor.

I'm thinking of getting away about 9am from windsor so as to get a full day for a nice relaxing cruise.

Hopefully we should be back sometime around 5:30 - 6pm. (have to finalise these details though)

Numbers are good so far (see above) and more are welcome.

Cheers,

Dan.

If I remember correctly - which I do, this road will, after much interesting scenery, (Straights, sweepers, U-bends, very little traffic) will lead us to the Hunter Valley - which, if I remember correctly - which I do, is a real challenge for those who may enjoy fermented grape juice. I ponder - is it a more efficient use of PULP to kill two birds, so to speak, and make an arrangement for those with a liking for the grape juice to sample some of the same whilst in the region.

Think of the good we can do for the environment!!!!

Wadda ya reckon - fatz - dan - paul - dean???

Gotta work Dan, sorry. Sounds like it'll be a good turnout :)

YOU SUCK!! :talk2hand :hellpisd:

you could still bring me back something from o/sea's tho. :) :headbang: :fro:

:eek:

now who hijacked my thread... let me see... if I catch the bas... (sees who it is and gets up from computer, walks into other room where dad is)... well now that that is sorted out... it appears that dad is good at reasoning!!!

Well wine tasting as well...this will be a long day... and I have to be at work at 5:15 the next morning!

Well, lets have a show of hands on who would like to possibly do a wine tasting lunch as well. Maybe we might have to split into non tasters and tasters for the return journey.

If we are going to go it will take a bit more research as to where we can park all these cars. Dad and I will look into it and see... but it could be possible... even still getting back pretty early (6:00-6:30pm) to windsor.

Has anyone heard from oz recently??? his knowledge of this area would be invaluable... if anyone sees/talks to him send him here for his advice!

And loz we may be able to push the start time back a bit... maybe half an hour... but it will take us all day to do the cruise! and it IS worth while coming... anyone who has been before will tell you that... and everyone that is coming along for the first time will tell you that on the night of Sunday the 3rd of November after they get back!!!

did I miss anything???

Duncan and Kel, Fatz, does this mean that you'll be along? Good to have you as always Xrsist.

Cheers,

Dan.

    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
