Great day had with lots of great cars to see...

With a few new possible members :)

All of our cars looked great when we met to cruise down... Until the skies opened up :(

A big thank you to all of the club members who gave their time...

Yep had a good time with some good peeps. Going to the pub would have to be the best idea :D even though the pub wasn't the best :P Brett made up for it though by winning the raffle (bottle of chivas regal) :D Pity I kept getting calls from work :( being on-call sucks big time!

Well done to all that rocked up. A few more rides in the show would have been awesome. Going back a few years we almost had the same number of cars as the FPV club. Would like to see a lot more people into these :D A big display would have been awesome, but considering the short notice we did alright.

As Nathan mentioned, we might have a potential couple of new members. Some sweet rides were in the show and some not so sweet (shall leave it at that). Old School muscle always look awesome and sounds even better :)

Once again, I would like to thank all the members that put their time and effort in getting this show happening. It is highly appreciated and hope that you will be in the next show which I believe is Kadina Show and Shine (I think the reputation for the event speaks for itself).

      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

      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

      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.
