Hey all,

Just wondering if anyone is planning to attend this charity cruise on the 8th Dec. Confirmed details are yet to be finalised but Imodify told me via email today that the final destination will be Penrith Paceway.

They have also told me there will be a lot of other car clubs attending so if we get a group to rep SAU they will reserve us car spots to arrive together at the meet spot. We could also have our own meet somewhere prior to arriving at the main one.

Yah the one last year was rediculously disorganised. The town we went through couldnt handle the traffic and i dare say the streets around the paceway at penrith will be just the same if not worse. Ive got a xmas party for work anyway but goodluck to anyone going cause it was an absolute shenanigan last year. Cars left at different times then all split up so people didnt all arive together. police had no control of roads in or out of the carpark so yah just shambles all over.

Hey guys there is no official meet up as Imodify were told they couldnt have any for whatever reason however there are many other meet ups you can view through Imodify's facebook event page. For those without facebook I will update this thread with meet ups locations and times when I get home from work around midnight tonight. It seems the main one will be Harry's at Liverpool around 9am though.

Ok hope this helps... so the following information is from Imodify's event page from facebook and also individual people that have organised "unofficial" meetpoints as Imodify were not allowed to have any this year.

iMODIFY are proud to announce the iMODIFY Star Car Cruise will be held at Penrith Paceway on the 8th December 2012!

Penrith Paceway, located off Station Street in Penrith, is easily accessible from all corners of NSW and offers a great venue for an afternoon of admiring some of the finest rides in the country whilst supporting the Starlight Children’s Foundation Australia!

The iMODIFY Star Car Cruise will have entertainment throughout the day including DJ entertainment, a charity raffle, children’s and adults joy rides and attractions, local businesses and much much more!

If that isn’t enough, come and see the Hot4s cover car, the iMODIFY R34 Skyline, and cover model, featuring in the upcoming issue of Hot4s Magazine!

Entry to the events costs $20 per vehicle, and participants will receive an event show bag containing entrant sticker with proceeds from the event going to Starlight Children’s Foundation Australia.

With the iMODIFY Star Car Cruise here to stay, this years event will feature additional infrastructure and planning for participants to enjoy their day. 2013 will see the return of official meet points and increased donations.

We look forward to seeing you on the day and supporting such a worthy cause.

    • Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that 
    • Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything

    • What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day   Highway gets as low as 10l/100km on my end so I'm not as worried about it being a mechanical issue. More likely just the tune on the haltech.
    • While I was waiting for the new parts to come in for the charge pipe and radiator I decided to do some turbo modification. The drive pressure (exhaust backpressure) was a lot higher that I thought it should be. For 32lbs of boost drive was 55lbs. The turbine housing is a 1.10AR and my turbo builder has suggested to go to a 1.25AR. To test if a larger AR would do anything to reduce drive pressure AND not spend any money I decided to hog out the divider in my current housing. I removed it from the inlet and the whole way through the housing.  After reassembly and testing it doesn't look like this modification did anything for reducing drive pressure or requiring more fuel (making more power). Oh well, it was worth a shot. We'll get some data at the track if it makes it past the 60ft. I also machined a $7 shift knob off Amazon to fit my Stillway shifter since I didn't like the Stillway shift knob. Next on the list was the radiator replacement and fabrication of a new intercooler tube that had no silicon coupler. No pictures of this - I was short on time each night after work to get this done and didn't stop to take pictures.  Next was to get the clutch disks out and replaced. Previously when installing the dogbox I had ordered a set of the same sintered iron disks I had been running because I switched to the 26-spline input shaft. I thought it was odd that they didn't have any markings or brand name on them like all my old disks had but installed them anyway. At the track I could not get the clutch to lock up using my normal strategies. After two track nights I reached out to the clutch manufacturer and ask their thoughts. They said they had to switch the material out because they were having trouble getting the original material and that this new material would not take to being slipped very well.  So out with the first set of 26-spline disks and in with the correct material 26-spline disks. While I had the trans out I added an inspection/service hole. I've wanted one of these for a while. Now I can have a look at things and change the front cover shimming when needed (clutch wear). I hustled and got the clutch change done in a few hours on a Saturday. Hopped in the car and drove home. On the way home I did a 1-3 pull. When shifting from 2nd to 3rd the core plug in the back of the cylinder head popped out and dumped all the coolant. Thankfully I was only 30 seconds from home and coasted it there. Datalog showed nothing unusual and 2.5psi of coolant pressure. That plug has been in there since 1992 but I guess it worked its way out. Pulled the trans AGAIN and replaced the plug, JB welded it in, and made a brace. Also deleted the head drain I had added in during the bearing issue fiasco.  I am currently changing my boost control plumbing to make it cleaner. After that is done I'll make another attempt at getting past the 60.
