That is the main idea of the day, a chance to get your car all shined up and then park it somewhere safe were you can answer a few questions perhaps from some budding young skyline enthuiasts, or older ones, and meet people from the club and forum with out having to drive and talk on a CB. :rofl:

Sound like fun!

And there is no way that you will get laughed at... remember... safety in numbers :P

Gday guys,

Checked out the entry form and did not see the category of "Best factory green R33", let alone the sub-category of "with stock Series 1 body and wheels".

I could go on but, what the heck, we are going to be there and I reckon we can pay $10 to park it in full view.

There may even be some interest. You never know.

Enjoy!

and I heard a rumour you'll be at the drag day the weekend after too ;)

You better believe it ! :uh-huh:

Added a few little bits since last time and hoping to approach respectable times this time around. :kewl:

Hope to catch up with you and a few others at both these events. :wavey:

All the best.

ps. Was "this close" to spectating at the track last weekend but unfortunately judged the weather to be unfriendly. Sounds like you tore the track up with the lightweight rear window. :crazy:

Bit late I KNOW......but a good chance I'll be there with the '72 GT-R copy. I'll try and beg my case with the organising powers tomorrow. Question is....will there be two silver grey KGC10's on show?? What about some older stuff, Prince Skylines, 240K's?? Anybody know of any likely to show?...I hope so!

Jim.

Time to say Thanks!

The effort that the committee has put into this event is huge, and all in their own time, and all just for the love of the skyline... hell, some of the event committee don't even own a skyline anymore :confused:

So well done guys... with 40 plus pre entries and probably a fair few on the day you are to be congratulated for all your efforts and motivation thus far.

Thank you Team.

:P

    • 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.
