Dan, I have been thinking about what you said about informing the cops from a couple of days ago. I wanted to weigh the risks and make my own mind up.

I do think based on the numbers that me informing police would be beneficial. at first I thought we were just having a big sau crowd which would be easy to control and identify people, but with multiple clubs that I have no information about other then number of members attending, it would seem appropriate

I will do this shorty.

it was just a thought, and i like you, see advantages and disadvantages for either approach... it's hard to know which way to go'

i was thinking of perhaps letting Graeme know, might be a better way to pass the message along

it's a tough call that's for sure

Is it really gonna get to the point where we are taking a chance with the Police?

Notifying them can possibly come out with a worse outcome. I'm pretty sure they know almost all imports have some sort of defectable mod to them.

I dont wanna be the first defected M35 Stagea in Aus lol.( i dont think i am, but Im sure they'll find something if they really wanted)

I mean the last cruise that everyone got EPA'd, didnt the Popo say something about not getting EPA'd if "you all clear out"?

If im taking a chance, maybe I'm out..

Out of the 2 times that I've been on a cruise with a stagea and out of the 2 times that all the skylines were pulled over in a group, the stagea gets away every single time lol

I'm out of this cruise+1 passenger. I think its WAY too big to go un-noticed.. i'm simply not taking the chance!

But goodluck to everyone, including the organisers!

Everyone is driving at their own risk. It's up to you whether you go in your car, someone elses or not at all. Obviously there is the chance that you will get done.

Personally I'm glad I'm have the ute as I can just slink away and pretend I don't know you guys :whistling: Just kidding :P

Ok, how about, before I decide to inform police, we go over the rough advantages vs cons

adv

-----

Could be seen as a mature approach and we tell them anyone acting inappropriately will have their number plate written down,

it ends up being a good night and everyone enjoys themselves

con

-----

If they didn't know the event was on they now would, they could still choose to give out defects

the destination - they could choose to place police at the drive-ins

dont inform them, get done anyway... what to do?

any others?

Hehe don't be such a pussy Aaron :P They are probably reading this and laughing.

As for notifications I say just let it run, if the cops show up then so be it.

ah we'll see what mood im in on the night..

i dont wanna drive an hour to coburg just to get defected lol..

on the other hand, i drive a car that looks like the new volvo, like chaos says, i could probably just drive straight past and pretend not to know you hahaha

I'm sure with revenue in their minds they would just rock up and start dishing out defects.

weighing it up;

how much would they get from the Number plates you provide - based on the fact they cant do anything anyway without witnessing and having physical proof

or

being there and legally being able to hand a fine out.

giving them number plates doesnt give them a right to hand out a fine..

Im not having a go, I can see that your trying to help the Sau members but yeh..just a thought

      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

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      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.
