Supercheap at bondi has 2 bottles or red Duplicolor and 3 purple ones.

Looks like we are gonna just cruise tomorw..

Shado34 think we are reschedulling

tomorrow? i think u mean monday!!

the local places near me are all out of VHT, which i think is a good thing, lets use the duplicolor, and plan it all in advance, like lets set a date now, and work on getting the bits between now and then (say like 3 weeks time?) i know that means we will have to find another spot though ;)

I will be having a wheel balance done when I have adjustable castor rods put in; otherwise it's a double exercise which will cost twice as much :(

I don't think you will need a wheel alignment or balance after doing this... you just need to make sure your wheels go back on properly!

Sam, at the moment it doesn't look like we'll be doing it.... not enough paint going around (can't get a big enough high LOL)

So we'll probably end up cruising instead!

Chatswood meet 10am :(

So............is it a cruise now?

Where to?

Chatswood 10am sounds ok, if only i knew my way around Chatswood

:)

Doodz, lets meet up before hand, i can cruise to your area and go up the ED??

if this ever happens.. i'd like to come along....i'll be in the stands having a beer wiff DUN-CAN.....but we'll never ever ever get ro-lling drunk.... (thought this would be about the only opportunity i'd have to use that line..... )

if this is between 2nd of Jan and the 10th of Jan, I'm so in. I'll even do my best to hunt down some Metalcast cans for teh cef to bling with.

Currently 5 cans plus base coat at Supercheap Epping :huh:

Get red too you bloody pimp and not the purple or other stupid colours. (BTW Midnight purple IS cool!)

OK

N1GTR and a few others have concluded that this MUST be re-scheduled :( We've hyped ourselves up too much to pull out now :huh: I'm definitely in but firstly...

Questions:

1) Date

2) Location (my original location is now void due to dates)

3) Paints (which is best and where from)

Thanks guys

Stan

    • 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.

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.
    • My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.
    • There is a really fun solution to this problem, buy a Haltech (or ECU of your choice) and put the MAF in the bin.  I'm assuming your going to want more power in future, so you'll need to get the ECU at some stage. I'd put the new MAF money towards the new ECU.
