ok theres only one other mate confirmed with a skyline coming so its a pretty small cruise so far but who knows, if anyones city based meet up and see what happens.

im thinking eight - eight thirty pm on the ground floor of broadway shopping centre (near the fruit shop) then off towards watsons bay via New south head road (twisties) and then along the beachs of the eastern suburbs all the way to maroubra then Port botany and finally that san souci bit just after the airport that has a beach and lots of ice cream shops.

if anyones keen possible RNP run afterwards or call it a night at that point depending on weather.

all welcome!

might start a new thread with the updated date on it for the coming friday...though can someone confirm with me which date that will be? all i have here is last years free Top Gear calender which clearly wasnt too useful when i slapped the heading up for this thread...doh!

ok back from enforced SAU holiday, apparently its not a good idea to post boobies in the boobies thread (at least with nipplage visible), lesson learned. sticking to the car stuff from now on, it is why im here after all.

anyway looking forward to friday, possibly more cops around but if we stick to the pace we took last time then that wont be an issue.,

bring it on!

    • 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.
