Yes, its doing nothing, but gathering dust and rust.

Cant find my camera cord to show you, but it is the one you gave me.

I wasnt using it, or planning to, so i dont need a replacement.

Ill drop it off, good excuse for a drive.

Went out to the cotter and Brindabella rd the other day, nice drive.

I wonder if roads are bumpier than they used to be or if its just me. Because i find going fast is not good at all, but 20 years ago i could go WAY faster and not feel like im about to be thrown off the road.

And i dont think its my car as ive had far worse shtboxes going faster than the Skyline.

Ps..... dropped it off. ;) I forgot which one, but the blonde told me. :yes:

Went for a drive, my car is fun to drive now.

Saw a bunch of guys on minibikes cruising down Belconnen way. I noticed they were all very nice looking bikes, ( original Honda's ) and the riders had good riding gear they obviously use for their big bikes. The cop in the paddy wagon didnt notice or know about real legit minibikes, because as soon as he saw them he put the siren on and went after them.

They would all be registered etc, these things are a rarity and im very surprised to see such a large group.

Awesome little things, it easy to see why they have cult status:

Has anyone checked out Power Kart Raceway in Fyshwick yet? Pretty cool place and the karts are pretty quick.

Anyway they're planning on running a racing league fortnightly Wednesdays starting 15th of October.

Anyone who might be interested they have some details on a Facebook event - https://www.facebook.com/events/1467986283466197/

I'm planning on running it. Trying to get word out :)

I was blown away by the size of some things. Huge jars of Jam etc and Marshmallows that would Fill a Coffee Cup.

The Bulk buy factor is the main issue as the initial cost is a bit off putting but in the grand scheme it seems economical. (aside from the $60 yearly fee)

eg. Twin pack of Mocconna 400g jars of Coffee for $35 work out cheaper than when on special at Woolies individually but it's alot straight up.

Walking round snacking on Demo foods is cool though and a Hotdog and refillable drink for $1.99 is a Bargain. :D

Not likely to signup anytime soon though. (we went with friends who are already members)

The sweets section is pretty full on, and it is nice to have a 2 month supply of toilet paper, if you have the storage space.

There are some good things like the terry towels and microfibre cloth in the auto section. Good for detailing, theres always a clean rag handy.

But for me, not having to go shopping as often is the best part.

      Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
