I went to get food at Fiddler and came back too late oops.

Also the stocker headlights I threw on the car earlier in the year (to pass rego check) were whack. First time I drove it at night in years and bloody hell the factory projectors are garbage. Didn't help that I didn't aim the lights. I better get cracking on retrofitting these headlights I have...

Thanks to SAU for putting the event on, and it was great to catch up with some old faces for the first time in ages (and yes, there was a fair bit of shady glancing "is that....." :))

Are you calling my face 'old' ?

Thank you to everyone who came!! It was a great turnout, and so far, all the feedback I’m getting is that everyone thoroughly enjoyed it! 
 

Apologies to those I didn’t get to catch up with and say hi… 😔

This was great fun, thanks @sammi_d and others for organising! Great work on that!

Here are some photos from us as well. Unfortunately no photos of the stands or the other models.

Good choice on the potato corner food truck! When we got there Jen was like "Oooooo, is that potatoto corner!?!". Stuff the Skylines, potato corner is the real attraction. Apparently it is a known entity in the food world. It was good, though I could already feel the heart disease developing working through my melted cheese on cheddar combination. It was also fluro orange.

Don with the full Kendo gear was incredibly zen. Makes me want to have a go at Kendo. Seems like it may be one of those martial arts that are seem useful in everyday life.

Jen drew a winning number in the raffle. Great timing as I had ordered a fire extinguisher from Mitre10 just a few days before. Ended up going there to pick it up and return it straight away.

I also felt slightly socially retarded going up to Duncan and going "EXCUSE ME, ARE YOU DUNCAN?!". Might try again next time with less awkward :D

Definitely looking forward to the next one though!

Fully agree with your daughter there. The 31 was my favourite as well. The frontend is just chef's kiss. It was very wholesome as well as the owner never saw the award for it coming.

    • 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 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • 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
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • 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.
