LOL, lets just say the fastest Stag isn't a 35!

I think we should invite the leg's

OK lets get one thing sured up with all this bravado...mine's bigger,mine's faster,mine's fastest (SAPOL must love these threads)

PLEASE don't let the Stagea section become a defacto SAU skyline thread....have we all forgotten recent events that

put SAU members up in lights ? ...hint from a wise OLD monkey: write your posts like SAPOL are reading it..

When you are talking about rwkw & speed/fastest in a cruise thread you are asking for unwanted scruitiny...believe me, you are giving "the man" valid reason to "act in the public interest"

BTW "the OLDS" stagea is most probably the slowest & we are most probably the slowest drivers...gladly rwkw doesn't = IQ

**gets off soapbox**

PS ...sorry Robbie but I am just speaking my mind....

^^ well said. Thats why there should be a mallala stagea day :thumbsup:

Totally agree & we will be there to support you guys flexing your muscles

...in a cruise thread it can lead people very quickly, to the wrong conclusion...

Well said olds mark, I have said before, my 3 year old daughter comes with me on these cruises, and my pace will reflect that, there will be no speeding, hooning or skids.

If that is what you want, go somewhere else, this is a "cruise", we'll take some great driving roads with some great scenery, some nice spots for photos, and a nice bakery at the end to fill up on great food.

I know the harmless banter is a bit of fun(I may or may not have joined in) but let's save the "mines bigger than yours" for the track, that'll sort the girls from the ladies!

I suppose not everyone that'd read this thread would know were only joking, only the ppl that have been on one of our cruise's would know that. Could be taken out of context.

So who would be best to organise sutch a day where the 35 owners will hang their heads in shame?:nyaanyaa:

p.s. I bags the spot at the back of the convoy, it'll be little Brooke's first cruise and I plan on taking it nice and sssslllllllooooooowwww

Ive heard rumours that there might be a John Bowe training day at Mallala in November - unsure if it'll be an SAU:SA organised event or not but Id say that would be a great opportunity to ensure that none of us have to hang our heads in shame :thumbsup:

exactly, these cruises are a bit of fun, and the regulars(ie the shit stirrers) all know each other by now, but its always hard to gauge the level of sarcasm/banter/truth when the words are just typed on a screen

p.s. I bags the spot at the back of the convoy, it'll be little Brooke's first cruise and I plan on taking it nice and sssslllllllooooooowwww

sweet, that makes it soooo much easier for me, at least if i can see a bright yellow beacon of shining stagea, then i know the whole cruise is still with me, and it isn't just me going for a drive by myself

Bit of a shame we can't give each other a well deserved ribbing without worrying about SAPOL...

The good thing about keeping the meet point out of the thread I guess, but in general we're a well behaved bunch that enjoy their cars and enjoy giving each other shit. If we can't do that without worrying about SAPOL maybe we need a private members only area?

I'm guessing this has only come up OLDS because you've got experience running a lot of cruises and you know what SAPOL can be like, I just find the whole thing ridiculous and unnecessary.

/end rant

Oh and I'm keen for Mallala or whatever. Looking at putting a couple of things together shortly for Pure Motorsport, so might be getting the car out a bit more.

baaa haa we must live in russia or something always looking over the shoulder for big brother watching!

like its been said before we own family wagons my 2nd daughter will only be a couple of weeks old so driving will refelect my respect of my family and other road users, besides the fact that my car is totaly stock and unmodified in any way just like all other users on this forum,bla bla

this is why i suggested a malla day, good fun a bit of a laugh ,legal and safe,

ummm do m35s go round corners ha ha :nyaanyaa: and i mean at the posted sign limit of course :cheers:

Yes you are right, it is sad but it is how others "could read" your posts & "others" do read them...At the beginning of this year I had SAPOL show me threads & posts in different forums...that is our way of life now...sorry !!! What & how you write it is most certainly up to you...I am not "the man"...but I have counselled many who couldn't understand why they were "singled out/picked on" (by SAPOL) at a cruise/on their way home.

Equally, what do I know....

alright guys, i've posted up a thread in the VR4 Legnum forums extending the invitation for the cruise. We'll see what sort of response we get and how many leggy's we can get to tag along!thumbsup.gif

Well, it looks like the date is decided, 25th September is the day.

Due to other events being planned and new arrivals on the way this seems to be the best option.

If you are still keen to come cruising send me a pm and I'll message you the details before the cruise( generally one week prior)

There has been overwhelming support from the legnum crew, should see 10+ out on the day, so we have to make sure we represent the stages properly, both in numbers and behaviour!

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      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. Rb25det s1 walbro255 fuel pump nismo fpr holset hx35 turbo fmic 3" exhaust freddy intake manifold q45tb q45 maf   Re: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Fri Apr 12, 2013 5:07 am No, I didn't. 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.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      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.

      Freddy Plenum vs Genuine options RB25

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.

      There is a really fun solution to this problem, buy a Haltech (or ECU of your choice) and put the MAF in the bin.  I'm assuming your going to want more power in future, so you'll need to get the ECU at some stage. I'd put the new MAF money towards the new ECU.
