Ive checked five weather sites just now, one said sunny two says clearing showers and two says showers for Saturday... Fail at weather reading right there. And temps range 21,22,23.

Like Troy said the weather will need to be looked at two days before or the day before.... We went to Griffith on the weekend and the morning before we left weather said thunderstorms all weekend yet it was 33 and sunny...

I just looked at the standard iphone 5-day weather thingy :D

I might turn up in the R32 now, instead of the Silvia..... see what happens I guess.

No, you have to make a decision NOW. We need to know.

:P

Forecast for Saturday

Sunny day. Isolated showers early in the morning. Winds northwesterly and light.

This looks promising. I still haven't been out to look at the damage to the bbq area, might be a plan for this arvo...

Count me in for the cruise and hope the weather smartens up.

I'll be riding solo in the R34GTT, but cruising along with my two boys (Veilwest and TM7GTR) in the JDM S15.

Well last nights rain put the final nail in the coffin for going out to uriarra crossing.

I went for a look today and the gate was locked! I've been going there all my life and have never seen it locked before!

But luckely i had a key for it in the van :D

Proposed BBQ area:

Unless we're keen to swim and cook all in one go...

Perspective on just how high the river is:

There's usually at least 50 metres between the carpark and the water...

Soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo Any other suggestions?

I mentioned before about volunteering my house.

Facilities:

- Can fit atleast 6 cars in the driveway, plenty more in the street.

- Big TV + Sound System

- 3x 2 seater couches plus numerous chairs

- PS3 with GT5 (x2) Guitar Hero etc

- Numerous DVDs and Blurays. If you want to watch something, bring it!

- Foxtel (Lost of D1GP and Formula Drift recorded)

- 2 Fridges for drinks and food

- We can either move the BBQ indoors or cook on the stove. If its not raining we can always move the outdoor furniture back outside for extra room

- Dogs welcome, if they don't get along with my dogs that is another matter.

I'm happy for people to stay late if we want to turn it into a DVD/Games night. If you are interested put your name on this list and PM or SMS me for address. 0410 149 684

Attendees:

    • 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.
    • I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
