Heading back onto topic, how many of the listed attending people would be interested in a shirt or hoodie, kinda like the Tokyo tour jumpers. I would be happy to design and organise it, and of course keep the cost down as much as possible.

Would be good to do I reckon and if everyone interested was happy to do so, there could be a small amount (say $5-10) dollars added to the cost price, used as a donation to SAU:VIC to help cover some costs for the whole event.

Let me know what you think people, and how much you would be happy to spend.. A hoodie would probably be a better idea considering the weather..

cost for the Tokyo jumpers was around $70 each Matty when I had them made. design costs approx $100 (one off) The more you make - cheaper it gets...

And Luke...you should come over!!

Matty, Shane has already run that idea by me.....there are a few issues however.

It's a one off shirt that will only be worn for that one occasion and with the hassle we've had organizing hoodies in the past (ie. getting them done quickly), there's a chance they won't be ready till after the event.

The other reason is that this is nothing like the Japan trip.....this is the SAU Nationals and as such should be represented by the official club shirts.....which we already have.

I don't want to poop on this idea any further but if you guys want to go ahead with it, you're more than welcome.........it just won't be a club thing, sorry

Sounds good Matty, the only thing is the mean temps are 21.6 and 24.7 degrees for October and November respectively, so would a t-shirt be more appropriate? Unless you were thinking for the nights because we already have club shirts - in which case you can just ignore everything I've said lol.

edit: Just ignore this anyway, I didn't see Pete's post because I was sitting on this page for a while before I posted.

Working on an after-trackday-party for the Sat night (starting say 7.30-8pm). Might be $20-$25 a head which gets fingerfood and bringing up a decent Melb DJ (or two) I know.

'Celebrating' is one thing us SA guys will beat you at, hands DOWN. :devil:

Yeah it's a good idea in theory Sherlock, BUT we wouldn't want to step on Ash's toes re: merchandising - I am sure he will provide kick-ass event jumpers or hoodies to buy at the SAU Nationals!

Big week... I'm totally exhausted :D

- 8 Hot Laps in 2 hipo R35 GTRs (Mercury R35/Mark's & Willall R35/Seb's). Both workshops are sponsors as well which is awesome.

- NPC Clutches chucking in the ring - 2 x $500 vouchers for prizes!!!

- Merch Pack being put together and samples/pics ready in approx 8 working days.

- $500 fuel voucher is now a $550 one

- S'n'S space will allow around 250 cars, maybe more.

Some even bigger announcements to come over the next few days with regards to the DVD etc.

Hopefully entry will be up within the next week as well.

Only bummer - burnout comp is a no-go after meeting with the council this week didnt approve it :(

Otherwise though, shaping up to be quite the event!

Yeah their idea was very different to mine and unfortunately no amount of planning would have fixed that. But no matter, can't win em all.

Might have to make it 3-days next year, and include DECA so people can get upto as much of that as they want in the space of 8 hours :D

      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.

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

      By jtha7 · Posted

      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.
