Seeing as no-one else has started any threads... here's mine..

I took about 1gb of pics, and managed to shrink it down to 30mb, so rather than making a thread that kills connections, I made a site for it, and split it into 7 pages so it loads easy

Enjoy.

Umm, I dunno if you wanna make this thread the official thread or whatever.. :cheers:

Oh, and if you want hi-res pics, just PM or email me.

Skylines were everywhere

Oh and the "MYSHOW" S15 pumped out a whopping 110Kw !!! What huge power. They were even making excuses for it. Awww he only gives it 3/4 throttle so the gold plating doesnt go off and the only reason he is on the dyno is to get points.

Nice pics taka, u must of gone early coz it doesent look like there are alot of people around in the backgrounds of the pictures

Thanks, yea, I got there at around 10:45 or so, there was no-one in the line which was really good.

Then left at like 3:30 after it got boring, and you can see the line in the last photo.

wat was the ratio of skylines to other cars?

Yeah there were heaps of Skylines, at least 20. Obviously lots in the SAU stand, Fangartists and various other stands. For me the SAU stand was the best because it represented the best of what you'd call "street" machines, the kind of cars you can drive without getting too much unwanted attention.

I caught up with Paul and Scott at the SAU stand who both have great looking cars and Paul was helpful in explaining alot of things I was wondering about the R33 Series 2. Got some ideas for future mods too :)

I fogot my digital camera but there was a guy selling a CD of pics he took before the show opened, so there are lots of nice clean shots without people getting in the way. It was $20 but worth it, especially as i'm a crap photographer anyway.

So if you haven't gone, you should before it closes, and if your reading this after its closed and you wished you'd gone, you missed a great show!

And leewah(don't know if thats the right spelling) got his Dyno King crown back by 1kW, which he had previously lost to a competator at Brisbane Autosalon.

Great show..

Mike

Nice pics!

Did any1 else see the rear wheel of this car? :)

IMG_3241.jpg

Yeah, i thought the angle looked a bit farked (toe-out on the rears :( ). Even in the engine bay some piping was missing, wouldn't know why?

Nice shots there Tharaka :). Was a pretty good day overall yesterday, and congratulations to Leewah for breaking the AWKW record! Was right next to the fence on the rear-quarter of the car. Recorded the run with my cousins phone and my cousin recorded that run on his digital camera. We'll try and put em up for download. Great run there, loved the flamage! Made my day......

......Great setup SAU guys! All of your cars look terrific; great display of superb skylines!

Steve.

    • The attached document is fine. I just downloaded & opened it.
    • Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks
    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated. Rb25det s1 walbro255 fuel pump nismo fpr holset hx35 turbo fmic 3" exhaust freddy intake manifold q45tb q45 maf   Re: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Fri Apr 12, 2013 5:07 am No, I didn't. I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
