Ok thanks....

is there lots of racers around that area or known for accidents or something

thanks

Dude... easy with the "small town" questions k?... you'd think Japan was just one main street with a population of 684! :rofl:

I can't read the first kanji importantly I don't think I know it...but the second kanji is Minami (south), definitely not a prefecture plate...some small town and how many small town are there in Japan with Minami!

Why don't you just ask the importer?

it's not a prefectural plate - it's most likely a city - could be 'sounan', but that's just a guess from the kanji. Kanagawa ken maybe? (adjacent (west) to tokyo)
Not bad Daioni... it's "Shonan" in Kanagawa prefecture! It's the local area around the towns shown in the map below:

here are mine ;)

With the addition of another son to my family, I was tempted to sell the Skyline and get a Stagea. After much deliberation, I opted to keep the car and get a modded Accord Wagon as a family car...

That's a good looking Accord...what year is it?

nice one dave - first time I've seen an accord wagon that didn't have chrome wheels and some sort of neon attachment :)

I just wandered outside and took a couple of pics of the FD, to make up for the crap one I posted earlier:

    • 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.
