So Knox police putting a stop to SNL... no more BP Eastlink. theres talk of safety hazard backing up the freeway with people trying to get in. i kind of understand it... but its hardly co-operating with the organisers (though I guess its not technically a legal meet, especially when you got 500 cars showing up)

Unwatchable! Totally biased, not funny and the meet point just can't get any worse. Sad

It would be interesting to see how they could legally enforce this, short of defecting everyone. Technically it's just a random bunch of cars parking in a car park that is private property (I imagine, owned or rented by the service station?). What's illegal about that? Maybe they should wait until something actually happens.

I mean, if they are worried about traffic banking up because of a meet...have they driven on the Monash in the last 15 years?

The better was at Daniels Donuts, which is a 24 hour Donut/Pie shop which is in a little "shopping centre" with a massive shared car park which is outdoors and open 24/7.

Apparently police came and shooed everyone away, when they were legitimately buying food from a place that is open 24 hours, none of the other shops in that area were open.
Telling them to move on from a legal parking spot trying to legally buy food from an open business serving them? Pretty lolsy.

Maybe go to the one on the otherside? lol id be surprised if they had staff at both approaching any car thats cleaner than most others.

BP eastlink doesnt sell kebabs so im happy to find somewhere else to stand around. Was standing around with VIP people at bottom of olivers hill jetty last weekend and had some dude in the wrangler drive passed slowly and call us gayflamin mongrels. (Mind you one of the guys had a drift RC car)

I got an rx7 rc drift car I bought ages ago with Bez when we thought it was a good idea.

Actually had a fair bit of fun out of it too bad sits in the cupboard now days with some battle scars haha.

So got a notice to vacate current rental as they have decided to sell, and there be a couple months cross over from this place to the new house finished.

thinking finding a short term renal plus moving stuff multiple times is too much a PITA

 

So thinking put stuff in storage and use the rent money for new furniture.

Same here Leigh!

And it's only been day 4 of unemployment.  

IT life hey, (you were i.t right?)

Martin that sucks, worst timing for you - move stuff to your new property lock it up and stay at a cheap hotel for a few weeks?

Actually lets all stay at Pats place

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
