OKay guys wherever we decide to meet i am up for helping out and ill turn up with the other wagga guys, someone metioned before about music or a dj, if you want one let me know as a mate of mine has a business which i often help out djing so im sure i can borrow a set of gear for a day or night just let me know.

Cheers adam

Mid Feb would be good - hopefully will cool a bit.

Hey Trident, I had a walk around LH camp the other day, that place would be great for a large scale meet later in the year. There would be parking for as many cars as you could think of, and being so isolated it offers a degree of saftey. Maybe a Autumn/Spring meet? Good time of year for some mountain cruises......

I like your thinking, if we get enough ppl interested, it would be ideal for a weekend meet/party.

How about we post onto the NSW/ACT/VIC forums once we establish a date... I think we need a show of hands (maybe a poll?) of who would really come... and would pay for it of course.

I kinda know the current owners, and I don't think it would be very expensive if we booked the whole place out. There would be bed accomadation for 60 - 80 people, plus BULK floor space - not to mention camping if anyone is THAT crazy.

So, lets get the ball rolling, April (even easter) would be a great time, Autumn is very nice up there as you know.

Anyhow LH camp = :rave:

I've also got some DJ stuff if we need it.

Yeah sounds kewl, but lets have a meeting about it with the rest of the 'local gang' and sort it out. If you could bring some accom. prices to the table so we know what we are looking at, that would be a start.

I reckon a meeting at the Shanty pub on Sunday the 30th Jan start at 1200 midday. I'll talk to Mick Neason and see if we can get a corner of the dining room.

If anybody here reckons otherwise please speak out. If I don't hear any different within a week [11th next Friday], I'll go ahead with it.

Then I reckon we'll be able to really organise a weekend bash.

We have to think about food, drink, entertainment, and accommodation.

Probably need deposits from those attending so we know exactly who's coming.

And, we are all different, all ages, and ethnic backgrounds etc etc etc so whatever we do we have to do for everyone. We all have or admire Skylines though..................

u don't even know wot yr gettin' into yet...lol

Up there for enthusiasm leech, good to see.........

lol well as long as its not to like melbourne and the roads arnt dirt/ huge pot holes i am fine for it (as long as some of my fellow canberra/struggle town peoples come with :D)

Some of the roads are a little ordinary, but you can drive around the big potholes :D

I'll make some calls and get the prices. Deposits a must, and I know a few people who would go to the meeting, me included :(

Definatley BYO though, its MUCH easier.

Tri n Co,

Alan the Vic vice pres is in town at the Nats. We had organised a dinner in Braddon and had 25 or so locals attend so we could Drink, eat and watch the cars cruise the strip. We mentioned this thread. Al appears keen, so are we (ACT), so we may be able to count on his support for the Vic's.

Nothing of real substance just general chit chat. So don't stop planning and organising. Just to let you know that momentum is gaining.

Thanks for your post. Plz let us know how the meet goes and if you want a Canberra voice/rep.

Edit: A Thought! If considering something like the Easter Weekend then maybe we should be thinking of our Bro's in SA. Depends on how big you want this shindig? Cubes is likely to be your man in SA. Again - Just a thought.

Yeah, We will meet up and have a look at how many people and stuff we can cater for... It could be bigger than ben hur. I missed the dinner but was in Braddon Saturday and met a few ACT guys, they seemed pretty keen to do something.

I'd guess if we could get 50 or so (which shouldn't be that hard) we could make it cost effective. We could cater, even do a throw around for charity... Tsunami maybe??? Get the media in? Around here most days are slow news, so that shouldn't be too hard. Also would be good to get some positive press, and exposure for the club.

    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
