Haha, yeah Adam: I get paranoid about cops and wasn't sure if I should be hitting the few twisties of Eltham or not when you were behind me :merli: You basically passed my house!

That was fun, sorry about the miscommunication... next time I will explain U turns better :P and perhaps go a bit slower. Props to Sarah for catching up, good map reading girl! That was impressive :(

Was good once we were all together, luuuuurv the boulevard any time of day. Hope the route wasn't too boring.

Catch you guys at the next one! (Oh, and everyone get a radio! The ones we had were really handy!)

Decent meet up Charli.

I don't think anyone read the map, you said 4th exit at the Apple Peal Round about and everyone went the 3rd exit towards Templestowe.

I was riding passenger in WillL's R32 and he had to goto Yarra Boulevard.

See you at the next meet up.

Unco: Just on my way home at about midnight... I live around the corner from Safeways :huh:

Jamie: Where did you go? lol on the misdirection, I also said to everyone just before we left "OK, first step is U turn at the round about and we are heading that way *point towards Eltham*" But I know how things can be misunderstood... I had a couple of misunderstandings myself later in the night :( All in all a funny night :)

Sarah: The ones I got were from Dick Smith in Greensborough, they are 1kw and about $200 for two but they came with a few extras and you might be able to buy them seperately. Maybe if it's a pair and you split it with someone else on here then it would be cheaper :)

Photos from the night.. I think I need to invest in a better camera soon.

We will do it again I'm sure! :(

ps. Thanks for the kind words everyone... I suspected there were going to be a few errors to nut out since I hadn't done anything like this before so it should be smooth next time if I ever do it again ^_^

So did anyone follow you after all?

Or did you do the whole map yourself?

Yeah I had 2 follow me from the carwash, Sarah went straight then turned around and caught up, and 3 cars came from the templestowe direction, then we met 3 on the blvd.... I think, not sure on exact numbers.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      I read this and thought "ah! I will do this scissor jack on the tow point thing!" I just use my floor/low profile/costco jack and lift the car up by the tow hook itself, then slide jack stands under. Never thought about using scissor into floor jack combo :p

      Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!

      So, I'm back with bad news. There's no jack long enough on this planet that will reach the front subframe. If by some chance there is, it would weigh 200lb's.  I purchased a long reach jack... The damn thing weighted 120lb's and was massive. Didn't even come close, was still short at least a foot. It was a pain, but I brought it back. Next I decided HA! No problem, I'll get an Extra long reach jack. Well, I couldn't lift the box... It must have weighed 160LB's and luckily there was an open box in store. I took measurement and was still nowhere close.  Sadly I've lost hope and have accepted defeat.

      J50 clock date suddenly reset to January 1

      By suko · Posted

      Thanks for that tip, niZmO_Man. I think the battery is OK. It's quite a new one, but I'll check. Last time I needed a new battery, everything electronic was fine, except that there wasn't enough current to turn over the starter. I decided to order one of the partial AV system translation CDs from Car Audio Workshop in NZ. That might have some effect, or help me diagnose the date problem. 🤞
