Pity the latest lady isn't there anymore:she was fast,efficient,bubly and cool,in a she's-got-curves-and-she's-ok-with-it way. The current old fella needs shooting:more painful than watching paint dry...

Still,I'm really there for the company-those that regularly turn up know what I'm on about!

Me n Gus went, only saw kate + hubby though...

Since when did they get rid of the hot blonde's who read the questions? :)

The Jerra social golf club runs raffles just before trivia starts.......did you see the big yella wb ute in the car park??? That's my new ride...long story...but I have chosen the yella terra over the soarer, so soarer will be up for sale before I head to Iraq.

Yeah i saw it, i was outside looking for your transport as i wasnt 100% sure it was you, and saw the ute, still in good nik :)

I'd say have fun in Iraq, but it really is a crap hole.

Dad was over there for 6 months and hated it.

Hey MIVEC...which unit is your Dad posted? I might know him....yeah Iraq went to crap after the Tourism Centre closed down :banana:

Which is only OK if you buy another 'Line when you get back,LOL!

I really do like the Soarer tho'! When's the trip?

Ahhh, not buying another car, 'line or otherwise :laugh: Stu had to buy a work ute, so I had to choose between the soarer and the ute...I figure I will get a lot more for the soarer than the ute, so I actually thought with my head not my heart (shock and horror..what's happened to me???????.......lol). Although, there is a minor ute restoration programme in place...and I DO love the gurgle/rumble that only an old V8 has :banana:...so I guess I will be considered a bogan now...LOL

I an in Sydney next week for Force Prep Training and leave Canberra on 13 March for Baltimore as I have to do a few work related things there (and some great shopping at a HUGE mall across from where I will be staying)..then go to Iraq on 17 March, back early Oct or so.

Due to spiraling expenditure(we shop too much),and the ever increasing need to get the GT-R happening,we'll bow out of Tuesday nights at the Jerra'. It's a $40+ night for the two of us,and this money could be better spent elsewhere. However,one in a while,I'd love to see all the Triv' night regulars,so I'll be suggesting a date soon to catch you all up...

    • 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.
