had an absolute blast!! Twas stu's and my first formal, wow, and not just the 'lines, but all the other models as well, loved the old monaros and gts, I was blown away by all the people lined up as we came through. Plus it was great to meet more forum members, yeah the rain was a buggar, but what a sight to see everyone fishtail it out of the t intersection!!!

Sister let me know she has organised some $ donations from her friends. Something like $10 each, so approx $140.

Assuming people are happy to donate their time/fuel, I figure we use it to buy a round or two afterwards, then donate the rest to SAU?

Jnr_J Top Turnout. Thanx for the offer of drinks at Kingo afterwards but with the rain and some splitting off for a feed was not much point. All were very happy to be a part of the cruise.

However, if you like you could come along to Trivia night on Tues an splash some cash over the bar or perhaps something similar for the Christmas cruise down the Cotter.

Thanks again everyone for coming, was a great turnout. My sister and her friends were stoked. Sorry we didn't fill all the cars but we sure had the numbers! I hadn't done a formal before, was much bigger deal than I'd expected. Hadn't expected so many cars from NSW etc. Couple a v nice supras/rx7s slipped in there too.

It's not easy to maintain a convoy in those conditions, maybe next time we have to arrange to pull over close to the dropoff and wait or something.

Good suggestion, I'll sort something out for the Christmas cruise - hook us all up with a bunch of food/beer.

My (other) sister took a bunch of photos, I'll post them up as soon as I get hold of them.

Thanks again everyone,

John

yw jon anytime it was a great turnout and i am sure everyone had fun. especially andrew and cassi lol. i think the wet weather was perfect for the liners to show some driving skills lol. but yeh once again i reckon everyone would say it was our pleasure in doing it for u

Hey - Sorry, was a shocker with the rain. Slowed n pulled over a few times but couldn't tell if everyone was caught up. SkylineGal was right behind me but couldn't see the car through rain n splashback.

 

Was nice meeting all. Catch up at Trivia night or the Christmas BBQ.  

 

Maybe a contact list for those who dont mind.

I wouldn't mind the contact thing because that way no one could get lost :P:( :ufo:

It was great to see everyone yesterday, shame about the rain! Couldn't get over the turnout at the formal and left feeling slighty deaf *blush*, hope you guyes and gals all had fun!!

ended up driving to belco alone with no music and almost sliding into a gutter. ended up driving 2 people but didnt want to cause i was hopin to have my friend with me instead and i almost got lost and had to cut a few people off. just wasnt a good night for me

for future reference

(PS. I dont normally answer private numbers)

Suggest though perhaps a swap of cell numbers in person maybe safer...Just that there is some real whacko's out there in cyber...

if anyone needs any of my contact detais just pm me, but in general alot of us have each others numbers, e.g. if you didnt have my number but had richards or supaflys you could call them and they'd have mine, its a good little system really.

cool pics John, ours need a bit of 'fiddling' with as they are a little blurred (getting used to the new toys settings). I have got them downloaded but finding it hard getting it all to work cos I am a computer/technical idiot. Am using 'camedia' , is there anyone who knows this program??? sending out an SOS!!!!!

The software should do most of the hard work and hopeful help you through it all.

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
