When: Saturday 14/8, 5.45am

Where: BP on the Hume hwy at Wallan Outbound side (towards shepparton)

Googlemap: link

For those that don't know where the BP is, it's about 10-15mins past the Donnybrook rd overpass/Shell servo. You will see the blue road signs (petrol, McDonalds, KFC etc) 5km before the exit for the BP.

Gee, I'd have to leave my place very early...

Anyone have any idea how long does it take to travel from Frankston to this Service Station?

Cheers

from franga its about 1.5hours? from city to the meet is a lil over 30-45 mins if u take the citylink

see u guys there!!! cant wait

I'm thinking of going all the way by eastlink and go trough bunch of towns to go to northern ring.

But I'll ask someone from my neck of woods and see what they say.

1.5 hours seems reasonable me thinks.

p.s. Mick, may tag along with you.

      The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
