Tonight was by far the best meeting I have attended so far, and rightly so being the A.G.M. Highlights for me were...

* It's good to know how the club is travelling financially, and some of the goals the committee has set for now and into the future

* Jeff's Targa videos were great fun

* Loved the idea of the dinner, will this be a black-tie style event? Abby and I think it should be.

* Feedback forms were a good idea, hopefully some good ideas/improvements come from these.

Keep up the good work.

All members who came and filled in one of the feed-back forms are greatly thanked.

The fact is these clubs are member driven and they key to getting the most out of it is participation. So we will read through all idea's and attempt to offer things you guys want in order to improve our praticipation levels.

Thanks again guys.

Annual Dinner will be on October 1st - to celebrate 1 year of SAU Vic existance.

More details to follow but Gentleman Jim is looking forwards to coming down and having a chat with us all. This night really should be the social highlight of the year for SAU.

Jeff brought along his 20,000 odd pages of notes, sup reg's etc for Targa Tas, had a short highlights DVD to show and had some great in-car footage of some of the Targa stages. The street circuit sections were great but unfortunately Jeff's driving skills makes it look all too easy. It's made my burning desire to do Targa even worse!

So if there's anyone out there that wants to sponsor me to do Targa just drop me a PM! LOL

DAMN, forgot again...

I'm sure no one missed me but I would have liked to be there anyway.

Considering I'm just in the city on Flinders St. any chance someone can pick me up on the way there next meeting so I cant forget again??

Roy -commiserations mate, hope you get the beast sorted without too much $$ spent.

Hey guys sorry I missed this meet.....had the best of intensions to go and then the missus decided to go into labour!!!

The annual dinner sounds great and I'm guessing the Gentleman Jim news was the big surprise Snowie??!!

Greg - seriously when I saw you weren't there I thought "Did he REALLY want me to call him to remind him!?" I will next time if you need me to! LOL

To be honest...

YES! :Oops:

    • 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.
