The GTR is still not finished, so will be bringing my STI along to this cruise. Good old evo vs STI bashing to come I guess :-p

What STI do you have?

I just bought a Version 6........ Number 241/400.

Bob.

my evo still runs.....

And that's what I like to hear.

Although still looking forward to when your GTR is back on the road for a good cruise!

Some competition coming up ay.

All good to me :)

trust me, me too.

Getting closer.

but not close enough.

Went up Macquarie Pass yesterday. The tarmac was nice and clean after being closed the day before from heaps of rain. More maintenance is due later this month - the 28th I think the sign said. So Chris, you might to check time and date. Sorry but I didn't take much notice at that speed.

Jamberoo Mountain Rd on the way back down was clean too - but stymied by a 4WD Ute with big tyres and 3" suspension lift if you know what I mean... bush basher...

Thanks Terry for the heads up.

Will either need to check this out or just hope it is open lol.

Also yes will see who is up for Jamberoo Mountain Road on the way back ;)

Can always ascend Jamberoo Mtn Rd to the Pie Shop - Robertson.

I do intend to come with my 34R - but my Mum is in respite care atm. I think Edifier might be coming too > Twins!

Yes that is true Terry!

Well hopefully everything goes well with your mum and then will see you and and the twins for the cruise.

Haven't been out with you and the 34 for a while so will be looking forward to it :)

Thanks Bob, will add that as well and looking forward to catching up :)

Bob's mate is in a separate car I think Chris.

Yes, thanks Terry,

My mate Mick is coming in his R32 GT-R.. A beauty....

There is also a reasonable chance my other mate Geoff will come along too in his STI 22B!

Cheers...... Bob.

    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol  
    • -10 is plenty for running to an oil cooler. When you look at oil feeds, like power steering feeds, they're much smaller, and then just a larger hose size to move volume in less pressure. No need for -12. Even on the race cars, like Duncans, and endurance cars, most of them are all running -10 and everything works perfectly fine, temps are under control, and there's no restrictions.
    • Update: O2 sensor in my downpipe turned out to be faulty when I plugged in to the Haltech software. Was getting a "open circuit" warning. Tons of carbon buildup on it, probably from when I was running rich for a while before getting it corrected. Replaced with new unit and test drove again. The shuffle still happens, albeit far less now. I am not able to replicate it as reliably and it no longer happens at the same RPM levels as before. The only time I was able to hear it was in 5th going uphill and another time in 5th where there was no noticeable incline but applying more throttle first sped it up and then cleared it. Then once in 4th when I slightly lifted the throttle going over a bump but cleared right after. My understanding is that with the O2 sensor out, the ECU relies entirely on the MAP tune and isn't able to make its small adjustments based on the sensors reading. All in all, a big improvement, though not the silver bullet. Will try validating the actuators are set up correctly, and potentially setting up shop time to tune the boost controller on closed loop rather than the open loop it is set to now. Think if it's set up on closed loop to take the O2 reading, that should deal with these last bits. Will try to update again as I go. 
    • More so GReddy oil relocation kits, sandwich plates, etc. all use 10AN fittings. And same, I've only used 10AN and my car sees track work (circuit, doing laps, not 10 sec squirt business).
