hmmm... hopefully not :(

ok peeps!!  there is the plan!!!

sat 14th may

8:30 at p6 homebush

9:30 at waratah st, kirrawee... we should leave by 10 for the nasho run...

seeya all interested parties there!!!!

and remember... drive safe! :P

Ill be coming :D Im a shire person too, and the Nasho is always a nice drive.... Meet you @ Kirrawee guys!!!

Hmmmm, i might run no front bar since my car sits quite low... But will be funt o test out my new suspension

haha dude I dont think it would be wise to run no front bar......I mean a bunch of skylines cruising these days is enough to attract instant attention from the cops.......

If one or more had no front bars.......it will just give them another (reasonable) excuse to start hassling us.....

haha sorry dude I aint hassling you.......I wont even be there so it doesnt really concern me...but for the benefit of others I think ya should keep the front bar on ! :(

Moanie the suburb is kirrawee, its just off the highway. If you guys look at the map you will see how its just off the highway, there is signs and stuff everywhere! I only live just down the road from the 2nd meeting point! So thats hell sweet!

Anyone got any plans for what to do after nasho? Mabye a cruise to "the wall" down at Cronulla?

Im hell physced for it! Just over a week to go! CANT WAIT!

ya sounds like a good cruise.. even tho i live in shire will be going to try and make it out in time to homebush so can cruise with the other peeps for the nite to nasho.

The wall closes at 10 so that kinda sucks.. but yeah wall or even slyvania maccas make an appearance there..

wherever goes everyone ends up back at maccas in the end.

will be a good night. try and go down this weekend to make sure they havent changed anything since last time i went out there

SHIRE = GODS COUNTRY

The wall, its a big wall thaey mad years and years ago just incase there was a mssive tidal wave and shit, plus it acts as a retaining wall to hold all the land up and stuff. Know to us locals as "the wall" down at "nulla". Its the rocks of the shire. Thursday nights are usually the biggest, and sometimes on weekends.

They have a gate there to stop us "hoons" from doing happy laps and stuff.

The locals complained about noise so they chucked a gate in at each end so people cant go driving around all night.

Its funny to see those people who leave their cars in the area of the Wall and try to get out when the gates are close :cheers: I havent expereinced that feeling yet though...

So any final numbers yet Moanie? Whoever shows, shows?

one more thing with the cruise that night.

Just a suggestion that is. Is there gonna be a final stage before everyone enters the park? There are traffic lights between Waratah st and natio, so i was thinkin of maybe a final 10:20-10:30pm meet at loftus rovers oval, about 100m before the national park turn off, so everyone can catch up, and so that we are all in a group in the natio, and say, a 10:30-10:35 or 10:40pm leave directly into the nasho?

Just saves everyone the hastle of waiting for people to catch up who got stuck at lights etc, and it's literally 100m before the turn off to the nasho so yea.

    • After my last update, I went ahead with cleaning and restoring the entire fuel system. This included removing the tank and cleaning it with the Beyond Balistics solution, power washing it multiple times, drying it thoroughly, rinsing with IPA, drying again with heat gun and compressed air. Also, cleaning out the lines, fuel rail, and replacing the fuel pump with an OEM-style one. During the cleaning process, I replaced several hoses - including the breather hose on the fuel tank, which turned out to be the cause of the earlier fuel leak. This is what the old fuel filter looked like: Fuel tank before cleaning: Dirty Fuel Tank.mp4   Fuel tank after cleaning (some staining remains): Clean Fuel Tank.mp4 Both the OEM 270cc and new DeatschWerks 550cc injectors were cleaned professionally by a shop. Before reassembling everything, I tested the fuel flow by running the pump output into a container at the fuel filter location - flow looked good. I then fitted the new fuel filter and reassembled the rest of the system. Fuel Flow Test.mp4 Test 1 - 550cc injectors Ran the new fuel pump with its supplied diagonal strainer (different from OEM’s flat strainer) and my 550cc injectors using the same resized-injector map I had successfully used before. At first, it idled roughly and stalled when I applied throttle. Checked the spark plugs and found that they were fouled with carbon (likely from the earlier overly rich running when the injectors were clogged). After cleaning the plugs, the car started fine. However, it would only idle for 30–60 seconds before stalling, and while driving it would feel like a “fuel cut” after a few seconds - though it wouldn’t fully stall. Test 2 – Strainer swap Suspecting the diagonal strainer might not be reaching the tank bottom, I swapped it for the original flat strainer and filled the tank with ~45L of fuel. The issue persisted exactly the same. Test 3 – OEM injectors To eliminate tuning variables, I reinstalled the OEM 270cc injectors and reverted to the original map. Cleaned the spark plugs again just in-case. The stalling and “fuel cut” still remained.   At this stage, I suspect an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, caused during the cleaning process. This has led me to look into getting Frenchy’s fuel hanger and replacing the unit entirely. TL;DR: Cleaned and restored the fuel system (tank, lines, rail, pump). Tested 550cc injectors with the same resized-injector map as before, but the car stalls at idle and experiences what feels like “fuel cut” after a few seconds of driving. Swapped back to OEM injectors with original map to rule out tuning, but the issue persists. Now suspecting an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, possibly cause by the cleaning process.  
    • For race cars, this is one part where I find having the roll cage bar having gone through a hole in the floor better than the build it up on a ledge inside... The Merc I help on, the main hoop ends are marked on the car, and the jack is marked... Jack goes under a few inches and lifts one whole side of the car up... Removes that fight for long slim jacks for race car duties!   My biggest issue for the daily drivers I work on, is my jacks don't go high enough. The jacks start out on a few blocks, jack it up, then start a second jack under it on more blocks, and then I can get an axle stand under it. My axle stands are presently in use, and are nearly fully extended. The car is sitting with barely more than a cm of clearance to get the wheel off the studs! Sarah's Kluger is the same, as it has an ungodly amount of droop available in the suspension and a distinct lack of good jacking points!
    • Happy? Yep, my to do list is getting shorter and shorter. Either this light approaching is the end of the tunnel, or I'm about to be hit by a train... Ha ha ha   Also, Duncan isn't that far out of town that you need to make a multi day drive out of it. 😛
