meh i figure they can have the nats the jap cars are always way out numbered last year i think i saw like 2 lines. plus a bit muscle cars is nice sometimes :( not the crappy commonewhores u see on the streets all the time :) ones with real power

Goran was in it last year, and he shutup a few of the bogans when he let the wheels rip after some smart ass comments so i was told. but there wont be many there, jap cars really aren't well received at the nats, and the ones that go run a risk of having their cars damaged, read: brake fluid in water pistols, sprayed on the paint.

but i'll be there with bells on, if i still have my R33 by then it will be staying at home for that week, cops go crazy defecting us and i really dont want the hassle.

I know of one BIG hitter that may be ready in time(read:2.7l RB26DETT,T51R,blue bottle in the boot...).That WILL tear the backside out of all challengers,I do believe.But I agree with Sinista32:AutoSalon and the Jamboree is our thing,really.I'm partial to anything that's "got nuts"(from a '55 Chev to a Series 8 RX7;anything goes as long as it GOES),but the 'Nats are really L.C.D.-Lowest Common Denominator- when it comes to respect,I.Q. and understanding of tough cars...Sure,a 1000hp Commonwhore is impressive on the dyno.It'd be way more impressive if you could drive it every day,turn laps around a track in good time,have it turn-key reliable AND have it legally on the road...THAT'S why I love 'Lines!!

I can you all now i'll be there for at least the weekend, but my car won't. i hardly think it's worthy, being completely stock and no one knows what the heclk it is.

Should be a good weekend though, plenty of nice cars, and braddon will be chockers afterwards.

I told you its your fuel man, its got a nasty whole...

could also be your g/box, engine, turbo, drive shaft, exhaust, ecu, boost contoller. I'd start some where there...

:cuss:

come on guys big :grouphug: for nic, its just a bad run of luck is all.

:Bang:

I'll be there again. Hopefully the cops are a bit more relaxed on Braddon as the Nats at the beginning of this year was disappointing compared with the year before.

I seen about 20 Skylines last year but I go to the Nats for the throaty v8 burnouts and the women (all 3 of them that showed their tits last year haha).

Hopefully the weather is nice and not too hot. I might take my work van, throw a mattress in the back and sleep in that.

I seen one chick with 3. Tasmanian I reckon.....lol But ay it was a good night just the same..He he he

lol yea me and the gf went last year maybe not such a wise move but hey i had fun and so did she but i have learnt my lesson if you take your women don't walk past the VB stand lol

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
