In what will probably turn into a Summernats regular thing,I've booked a table or three at Da Cellini's restaraunt for Friday the 7th of January.Da Cellini's is the one on the roundabout in the middle of Lonsdale Street,Braddon.It's opposite the Mobil/car wash and the car dealerships.I was there last year with a bunch of friends,enjoying all the sights as we had a great feed and one(maybe 27...)too many drinks.Parking is at a premium,so plan ahead!OK,so it's mainly V8's,but come out and enjoy the fumes/skimpy clothes/million dollar paintjobs!At this point in time,there's 4 people confirmed,another 8 spots are available.Last year,we had more people want "in",so once the booked tables were full,people had to let me know they were coming and I added on-the owners of the restaraunt were really good about it.More than 12? Bring it on! We kick off at 7 p.m. Send me a PM or just post an "OK!" up to let me know you're coming. (partners/girlfriends/boyfriend/pet rocks/pay-by-the-hour-"friends"-WHOEVER!Just let me know how many!

Are interstate visitors welcome? :)

This would be my 5th Nats, and i have entered my car in once (about 2-3 yrs ago), burgundy R33 Gts-t, Victorian Personal Plates, 19" rims(dual 5 spoke) [Lenso Muse].

Unfortunately, the car is staying home and i will be driving up in my company ute [Free fuel :P], so if ya see a big guy in a white ute with a "WEDDERBURN" logo on the side, give us a wave, i will be wearing one of various SAU Vic t-shirts.

Hoping to see a few awesome Skylines there!

Hi Al,

More than Welcome mate. We have some awsome lines here and growing all the time. 1st post on this thread is where we will be Friday night. Cruising Wednesday/Thursday eve Braddon area. Sure to give a awave and warm welcome.

Mixed feelings about taking the lines to the Nats so you may/maynot see a few in the carparks. I understand MYSHY32 is in the Horsepower Hereo's and his car will be on show Saturday in the middle of the track?

Never entered the burnout event, cnbf waiting in the huge ques and missing all the action. Just cruised the curcuit and dropped a few burnouts, every now and then, to shut the holden/ford boyz up :). Also entered the show n' shine in the middle of the grass field.

Here's a pic

    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
