The guys from HAPP(.com.au) held a very successful tech day late last year. They have another planned during the day on Sat 14th March, kickoff early-ish at about 9am.

Venue is at the HAPP compound, Ormeau , where hoists, jacks, engine cranes, air, power and water abound.
We will have a BBQ, and beers later on. Hopefully weather is kind to have a fire. Can arrange for people to stay over if you desire / need to.

Send me a PM for the address. BYO tools where possible please, and also gold coins for BBQ/softdrinks.

Come and do your own oil and filter changes, underbody inspections etc etc.

Nistune and other nissan softwares will be available for error code checks and code clearing.

No engine outs *insert Z32 joke here.

Post you interest here for catering purposes, and as I said before, PM me for the address.

If nothing else, come down for a poke around the awesome setup, have a chat, hang shit on zeds/zedders (and vice-versa), have a feed and a beer or 2.

Perfect oppertunity for anyone heading to the Nissan/Datsun Nationals over easter to make sure the car is good to go!

Cheers,

Mike

Might come by early and then head to tech night. Might drag McFly down. Get him to take the Leopard and see if any of you VG owners are keen :)

And for future reference, they are tech NIGHTS. To be held at NIGHT. Because tech NIGHT. A day implies the whole day. FFS :P

      Never ending fuel pump drama

      Never ending fuel pump drama

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      So last night pulling away from the lights, I lost power for about 1 second. Bit weird, but I kept driving... 5 minutes later the pump completely dies. When I tried to start the car, the pump won't even prime.  I left the car for about an hour, tried to start it and it all appeared fine. Pump primed, car started, got the fuel pressure I should have.... Start driving home, 5 minutes later it dies again. I'm stuck in a shit spot this time going up hill with a car right behind me, so I just let the car continue to turn over while praying to the fuel pump gods. After about 2 minutes of turning the engine over, the fuel pump came back to life and I got home (only about another 5 min away).  So I've been digging around online, it seems like the 525 fuel pumps really don't like to be run at 100% all the time. I've found quite a few examples online of people killing their Walbro 525 pumps within about a year of usage when they are run without PWM.  So, my pump is an Aeroflow 525 (AF49-1057) and I've been running it at 100% without PWM. I'm thinking the Aeroflow 525 didn't like being run at 100% and has burnt itself up.  I really am sick of dealing with fuel pump issues, my current thoughts are -  1. Use a Walbro 450 and run it without PWM. It seems like these pumps hold up pretty well to being run at 100% all the time. I only make about 350kw and can't see me making any more power any time soon so this is probably a fine option.  2. Get a Walbro 525, run it with PWM. I know doing this will annoy me as I feel like with only 350kw, its extra expense that I don't "need" and I'll be thinking the whole time while setting it up that I should have gone with option 1. I know I'll be happy with this option when its setup and running, its only the initial setup frustration and cost as an issue.  3. Get a Walbro BKS1001 brushless pump. This is the fu*k it I'm already going PWM, might as well go full retard. This option just seems better in every way, with the only downside being cost. But I don't know much about this pump so I could be wrong.  Happy to get everyone's thoughts before I go digging around in the fuel tank again.

      Like loud exhausts? You could be a psychopath.

      Actually, it is probably pretty legit. I mean, it's still woke feminazi bullshit academia, but you would have to agree that it is very likely that there would be a correlation between wanting a loud exhaust and scoring at the unpleasant end of the scales for dark triad personality traits. The fact that they found it didn't correlate with narcissism and only with psychopathy and sadism definitely shows that the loud exhaust thing is more of a "f**k you" than a "look at me", and I reckon that rings pretty close to most of the dickheads who take it to the extreme. Remember, this is correlation with tendency to be closer to one end of a personality trait scale than the other end. Of course someone who is at the literal opposite end of the psychopathy scale is going to be so considerate of others that they wouldn't even think about wanting to upset anyone with a loud exhaust. So the finding isn't that "you are a psychopath". Just that you score more towards that end of the scale than someone who doesn't like loud exhausts (on average, not necessarily even for specific individuals).
