It was around 1.30 2.00, I've had a few people mention another one around the thornton area though.

I think it was you, because the front bar was opened up like i've seen in some pics.

yea that would have been me. Didn't see you sorry.. Gotta fix that front bar up actually. I'm needing to mesh it off to deflect some attention from it. The police are startin to crack down on imports in and surrounding Maitland of late, alot of our friends have been done so I'm not really wanting test my luck out any longer.. Sorry I didn't see ya hey.

I actually think I seen you the other week goin over Hexham bridge tried to catch up but you got thru all the traffic and were goin. I had to turn off at Tomago anyway to pick the other half up from work..

I was in the work car, so you wouldn't have spotted me anyway, I dont drive the stagea much these days, sometimes on weekends, where does the other half work? I work at Tomago too, at Voest Alpine Mining and Tunnelling.

he works at Tyton Conveyors in martin drive. Sometimes he drives my car but most days he drives his own. (blue R32 with custom plates) Yea try not to drive mine too much but what with the kids and all it's a bit hard.

It's a very small world, there's gettin to be a few around the Newcastle area now, we'll have to meet up in town one day.

Yeah your talking about the fire engine red one i take it, ive PMed him to find out what he's got option wise, we'll probably meet up soon if he's keen, snap some pics you should come too 3 stags together would look better than two.

Brendan, when summer comes up (or at least when it starts to get a bit warmer), we'll have to organise another cruise or meet but closer to you guys up the coast - maybe Swansea or somewhere around there, who knows...

Definately mate, I don't mind even going further down your way, I guess it's up to the majority.

I'll talk to you on MSN about it, as you've probably noticed i've been a bit quiet lately, been heaps busy with moving, and the bub, and I'm back on dialup now, which sucks BIG time :P

Hey all, Newbie here. Thought I'd put my 2 cents worth in.

Saw a yellow one (I'm guessing a series 2) heading alond Epping Road on Saturday night. Followed it from North Ryde near El Rancho up to the Epping Station over pass. Thought at first it may have been the one for sale on Parramatta Road/Concord.

Asked how much and he replied with 22k inc GST imported I'm guessing he spent the extra $$$ to get it converted to Manual as he indicated they don't normally come standard. (Really hard to catch the rest of what he said as we were on the move by this time).

Have been researching these beauties for a while now, I almost got sucked into buying the one for sales out at Concord till I started checking out prices elsewhere.

Hoping to get some valuable info from this forum and look forward to making purchase hopefully in the not too distant future.

    • 2 spots that my exhaust guy joined the 2 pipes together  Made a big difference. I'm now able to live with it. I can make it louder if I want by removing the HKS caps.
    • Hi all, considering clutch upgrade to support 1130 engine hp from 1650cc injectors on e50 at 85% duty cycle (1650 x (11.85/14.7) x 85%). Narrows down to these three as they can be converted to use gm 26 spline input shaft if I ever want to use transmission with that input shaft (orc1000f and r3c easy/cheap just change center hub; tr2cd pricier must change clutch discs). Pricing orc1000f similar to tr2cd, r3c about usd 200 pricier. Orc1000f triple plate 200mm. Tr2cd twin plate 215mm. R3c triple plate 215mm. Claimed max torque : orc 1000f 723 lbs ft; tr2cd 800 lbs ft; r3c 1100 lbs ft. Why orc1000f triple plate but claims lower max torque vs tr2cd twins? Is orc1000f underrated? Any info maxing out these clutches? Info on street/traffic driveability/pedal feel? Thank you for any info on them.
    • Some troubleshooting, connect up a timing light/gun with a proper ignition lead on coil 1. Hold the revs at 4~4500rpm and see if your timing is all over the shop, scattering off its tits. If so, there's a high chance your CAS is fked. But I read you have a Link ECU ready to go in, why not just skip all this and put that in - will make troubleshooting so much easier.  
    • Misfires when the car is fully warm are generally attributed to the coils (and/or the igniter, on cars with a separate igniter). They can stop working properly when they get hot for a number of reasons. Either electric/electronic, or from thermal expansion opening up gaps and allowing HV leakage. Seeing as you have replaced the coils, that could/should rule them out. But I wouldn't always assume so. Were the coils genuine? Or is there a chance you have bought some counterfeit Chinesium shit? Then we're back onto loom connections. They can fail when warm/hot for the same reasons. Inspections, cleaning of contact surfaces, ensuring that terminals are fully inserted, etc etc, are all justified. The same (heat effects) holds true for the other electrics and their connectors. AFM & CAS, primarily. If you try that Chinesium AFM, drive it around on low load until it is properly hot, but do'nt give it more load than you have to, except when you need to see if it will still miss. I'm dead serious about the untrustworthiness of the calibration of those copy AFMs. Injectors are unlikely to get hot unless the fuel is coming back around hot. You could try squirting them with compressed air or freeze spray to cool them back down to see if they are maybe the cause.
    • Alright, all the plugs looks good. Noticed that it starts to get bad when the car is up to temp, that's when things starts to misfire hard. next to do is Injector cleaning and such. Got in touch with a shop to do work on the injectors next Monday also help on diagnosis.
