Well due to bad weather in the Southern Highlands today was able to get some polish on the GTR and had time to fit some retrimmed leather seats as well :banana:

Hopefully better weather for next weekend and my partner Bianca can hold off giving birth to our first child who will be 36 weeks pregnant sitting in the passenger seat on the day.

See you all soon.

^^^ Yes, we Organisers wish Bianca and your li'l one well > no matter when. ;)

OK, because tomorrow's a holiday and Aust Post won't be back on deck till Tuesday, we've decided that even if you pay ahead of time, we'll reserve your tix for you > and you can pick them up on the day.

Alternatively, you can pay on the day for your cinema tix. The SAU desk is where you pay until 1.15pm.

But if you're a latecomer, you can pay at the door of Cinema #1 (- not at the Edge Cinema desk) !!! This is where we whip you and make an example of you!

Don't forget to pick up your SAU Membership Application forms if you aren't a member already. Nick is also there with SAU Merchandise.

It's too risky to rely on Aust Post this coming week. This 21st Anniversary is already a success for the Children's Hospital and SAU. :banana:

Thanks to all of you who've paid up front > makes my job easier on the day.

Will have a few towels ready, any doctors going on the cruise just in case :huh:

Also any one every found a baby seat that fits neatly in the back of a R32 GTR?

Weather report for Katoomba next Sunday is Max = 14, with possible shower or two.

(Sat is 18, partly cloudy > trend is therefore another Low coming in later Sunday - a bit like Bathurst in 1992)

good analogy terry, car is still not out of the shop and looks like it may not be ready in time, might stand alone on the highway and take footage of everyone coming up the mountain instead :D

We had a Bean Bag reserved for Shell, our Secretary, Brian. :(

But now it's Bianca's - and it's already in our equipm't car. We're One-Classy-Outfit here at SAUNSW!

Just like there are 5-star hotels; there's also a 5-star car club > and we're IT!!!

Yeah Matt, we knew back in June that our RB Bathurst could compete with the V8 one. :(

Now we just need to have absolute and total care in our driving. You tell everyone that in our forums.

Hoons will not be tolerated and as fellow Organiser NISMO mentioned to our committee, and OHY34H will at the Drivers' meeting, they'll be reported to Police.

This is "ONE BIG FAMILY DAY" ;)

Performance Imports know about it!

Motive DVD know about it!

And we've all organised it!

I won't be worried about it being on the same day personally, as long as I can get a personal TV going...

While I don't follow the supertaxi's any more, it is the one day of the year that is like Christmas for me. I don't miss it for the world!

Terry,

I (unfortunately) cannot make it next weekend. I'm being dragged to a wedding that I don't want to go to :-(

I have two tickets that I am donating back to SAU to do with whatever you want.

Vu from S.A. and Clive from Byron Bay are also late exclusions due to work and health issues respectively.

We at SAU really appreciate you guys donating the money back towards the Children's Hospital and also to 2x attendees who've been stung by a bank fee which was an honest mistake. Those 2x attendees can now get refunds of those bank fees on the day thanks, due to the generosity of those who had to cancel; and the rest still goes to the Hospital.

Here are some additional details about parking at the reserve, cruise staging area,

driver's briefing and parking at the Edge Theater.

Please be sure to head to the end of the reserve near boat ramp when you hear the signal horn for your Group.

Also keep left so normal traffic has room to pass.

    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • 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.
