There are guys who drive there with half their motor out of the bonnet! A Corolla with a cannon would get pulled over before a Stagea would lol.

Ive driven to all of them and never had a drama. Ill be on a trailer for this one though I think.

Yeah. I reckon i will just drive it in. Since my first post in this thread, i have managed to buy all parts of the standard 260RS air intake and piping. That was my main concern...

An 8 point cage..... ? Why? is all I have to ask

Pffttt... Cause chicks dig it brah nyaanyaa.gif

No. It came with the car and to be honest... I really like it. The car was (supposedly) tuned by Mines in Japan before it came to Aus and I think its had a fair bit of track time.

Ok so who has entered??

Sent my payment through yesterday :)

All I need now is to get my custom turbine housing, have my manifold made, buy a better thermo fan, bit of fab work, buy tyres and get the car tuned.....eerrrm :teehee:

I suggest going there on Thursday to get all your armbands and your scrutineering done.

Then on the Friday all you need to do is watch the driver briefing video, then you are ready to go.

After reading Gup's latest letter, to be able to get a pit lane pass one has to have hired either a garage or carport, so in my case, by not having hired one of the two, it will not be possible to obtain this pit lane pass therefore this offer will be fruitless. " The chicken and the egg " syndrome.

But thanks for the offer anyway, hopefully I am wrong and this will still work it self out.

Regards.

You are welcome to do drive throughs my garage, as long as you have a pit pass :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Not a chance Dave, as you said, Gup hates all import so unless I build a blown SLR Tori by than, there will be no garage.

:cheers:

Well if im not mistaken dont you own a mental 32? Might be able to get one if you are lucky.

Saying that Gup hates all things imports especially ones that smoke the big V8 boys :)

i would have driven down if it wasn't those dates, going to the forum battle at Calder park on those dates. is power cruise only on once a year?

Powercruise is once a year in Sydney, although you can always attend the next one in MEL or BNE.

I am doing the cruises and drags and if time permitting dyno.

:cheers:

    • 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.
    • I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
