If you only find deer, you're doing good! Lol. Of a night it can be a terribly dangerous road!

My missus lives right near it was like "there's no deer in there" until we went past 20 of them... Lol, I've come across lots of animals in there, which is expected being a national park...

Once went through there at night and came across a couple of *deer* standing in the middle of the road. :banana: Was foggy too, crazy stuff.

RNP definitely requires keeping eyes peeled and wits about, even more than usual.

... thanks gents for the headsup ... fingers crossed im not working ... cheers malcolm :D

i might be up for this, looking for an excuse to get out of something else :bunny:

Have to see what God_speed is doing tho' because he had an accident last night at about 6 o'clock.

Got rear-ended - by a deer :)

*Correction:- Cayman deer!

I hope it was in the daily not the R!!

Will txt him in the morning to see if he is ok..

Thanks David, you're a gentleman.

From what I can gather, it was like...

Three green bottles hanging on the wall: three green bottles hanging on the wall: and if one green bottle should accidentally fall; there'll be two green bottles hanging on the wall!

Well the Porsche driver ran up the third green bottle, and Matt's GT-R was the last green bottle at the front of a queue. One of the green bottles was a Beemer too I think. Damage to the GT-R is repairable. #2 green bottle hit him mainly in the left rear part of the bar + collecting the Fujitsubo tip > pushed the bar out to the right a little. The bar is repairable too; but if a new one can be sourced and keep the current one, that'd be better still. Dunno about the reo/beaver panel.

Yeah it was a Porsche Gayman actually.

Fortunately it was more like a love-tap to the GTR by the time the impact reached my car. I have no idea what he was doing as he hit the VT commodore with a fair bit of force. 6 o clock Thursday arvo, peak hour, stop start traffic. At least I'd left decent space to the car in front of me so the buck stopped with me so to speak.

Second time I had taken the car out in about 3 weeks.

I will join for a drive and lunch.

I endorse the rules as spelled out earlier in this post. If you can't control or behave yourself please stay at home. You will only give all of us a bad rep.

Please help to make this an enjoyable day and not one we would rather forget..

    • 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 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • 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.
