If that's at Aaron, don't worry, much like puberty he'll grow out of it :P

I know I certainly didn't want a wagon when I was in my early 20's, but now that 3000GT is just way too impractical.

yeh i'll grow out of it soon. I think once I start getting pulled over I'll be over it.. then Hi ho hi ho, back to a stag I go..

Do you leave it on the street?

That reminds me, I need to cancel my insurance. I insured mine for the first time last Friday so I'd be covered when in Sydney for the cruise on the weekend. It's understandable you'd be nervous, living in the "big smoke".

You drive around uninsured?? I'm not sure whether that's brave...or stupid...:whistling:

I don't have a lock up garage. It'll be in the driveway.

Just got off the phone from Repco. Anyone interested in servicing their car with Motul 300v should stock up this weekend - they're doing 20% off.

I'll head down in the morning and grab some I think, give it a try!

Are u sure the motul range is included in the sale? I've been to a few repco sales and motion is always never included.

Its Bathurst. Supertaxi's are going round.

I wish there we some real competition out on the mountain. You know, a mix of cars, V8's / 6cyl turbos/ 4cyl emos and rexs/ GTRs and euros even.

This has got to the stage where they have flogged that old horse far to long. Don't get me wrong- the drivers are no doubt talented and courageous, but its like a one make series now.

Maybe we could get some exchange students from DTM, and send 1/2 the supertaxi fleet to Germany?

DTM cars are 10x hotter than Supertaxis. With the carbon fibre and the wings and *drool*

Rumour is Toyota, Honda, BMW and a fourth, unknown Japanese brand is coming on board. Nissan perhaps?

I would have thought Hyundai would have been more likely.

And I wouldn't have thought BMW would be interested. How's that going to work for their marketing if they get beaten by a Holden?

no way is any other brand going to put up $500k+ per car to enter the series.

If I was a marketing boffin for Toyota, thats exactly what I'd be doing.

Think about it, if you want to sell a car that competes head to head with Commonwhore and Falcon, compete with them on track in Australias most popular motor racing series.

People like Toyota (Aurion), Hyundai (Grandeur? That new 5L V8 RWD thing) could benefit from some brand credibility and some bogan popularity.

And its not like it would be expensive. A deal with an existing team could be struck, the cars will be mostly control anyway so changeover cost is negligible, and itd end up costing someone like Toyota or Hyundai a fraction of their yearly marketing budget.

Nobody feel sorry for Craig anymore, OK? After meeting you & your missus the other weekend, I don't believe a word of it, lol.

And yes, variety in motor racing would convince me to start watching again. Just one or two more manufacturers would make all the difference.

So true- however it has to be some real variety. Not the kind that we see now, where its just a badge stuck on the front. If they make Toyota/Hyundai/whoever run the same diff/box/brakes/susp then no ground has been achieved. Its just playing by rules that Current manufactures can control. Sort of like as a kid if you go to another kids house, and they only let you play with some of their toys, only when they want....ermm.gif

meh there are plenty of series with variety out there, people just aren't watching them because all the marketing comes from cockrane's supertaxis, and all the audience and sponsors go straight there as a result.

Australian GT and National and NSW Production cars are 3 excellent examples of variety on the grid.

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By Duncan · Posted

      Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi

      Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom

      By 25zenki · Posted

      I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off.
