From what I've read on ns.com, it's still going ahead. If it's pouring rain, then looks like it will be cancelled.

In saying that, I hope Jizzles will take the weather conditions down here into consideration, as it might be better than Sydney if it's raining up there.

Just a heads up for us South Cost peeps:

As Jizzles has mentioned already we'll meet at the bottom of Mount Ousley in the car park instead of North Gate Maccas, less popo and more parking availability.

Arrive at carpark: 1:15pm

Leave: 1:45pm sharp

For those not sure where it is exactly, here is a link on google maps:

http://maps.google.com.au/maps?f=d&source=s_d&saddr=Mount+Ousley+Rd&daddr=-34.4165413,150.8597161+to:-34.3942982,150.8461402+to:Picton+Rd&geocode=FRAS8_0dqUT-CA%3BFWPY8v0dxO_9CClHi6CMKRoTazEQbJflZ30BEw%3BFUYv8_0dvLr9CCkRf0PzxBsTazGg4Uifa30BEw%3BFQh-9P0ddBj8CA&hl=en&mra=dvme&mrcr=0&mrsp=1&sz=16&via=1,2&sll=-34.413725,150.865588&sspn=0.015649,0.033023&ie=UTF8&ll=-34.402732,150.881488&spn=0.015651,0.033023&t=h&z=16

This map also contains the route we should take if we're going up Mount Keira, which will be more fun than Mount Ousley imo.

For people more south who aren't that familiar with Wollongong area, take a few minutes to study the route in case you get stranded behind in traffic when we take off.

Of course we'll pull over a couple of times to allow people to catch up and assemble, so don't worry too much.

If people arent too keen on doing Mt. Keira, then we'll just go up Ousley instead.

Anyways, if South Coast people can reply here to confirm they've read this and attending, then we'll know what to expect for tomorrow then.

PS Jizzles: Maybe you can give me your number so I can tell you if weather permits down here in the morning.

Also what channel are you going to be on? In saying that, UHF Ch 4 is good for down here cause there's a repeater that covers Wollongong area, so its good for talking long distances on our little hand helds. Just keep in mind there will probably be alot of truckies and bogans talking on it lol

Good stuff oddsock :)

Humbla: If you look at point A on the google map link and zoom in all the way you will see the carpark. You wont miss it ;)

Or if you're going to north gate maccas, go up Mt Ousley road which is directly opposite and it will take you to the bottom of Mt Ousley where the carpark is.

Follow point A to B on google maps:

Lol yeah, we spent over an hour getting the cars positioned for photos, so I can understand why people are getting anxious to see some car pr0n.

Hopefully Jizzles will deliver soon :)

The cruise itself was pretty good. I didn't expect so many people at the Wollongong Pre meet. Made the Mt Keira route much more fun :)

Didn't really count how many there were, but you can count how many in the photos when they come out :P

    • The attached document is fine. I just downloaded & opened it.
    • Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks
    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
