I'll be there a bit early to get the fire going :-) - as anyone who went last time knows, I like fires.... (any comment muck?:))

So if you see a bayside blue series 2 you'll know you're in the right place. Mind you, if it is pissing down with rain, or 40C I won't be coming.. :-(

hahahaha... its a no go zone.. when ians setting up his fire....

hah... i was planning to see you tomorrow ian... hah.. but it could be a bit hot for you!! i want to laugh at your dodgy programming again!

Not to hot for me, I like the heat! And the house will be at 22.5C regardless of the outdoor temperature anyway...

Yep, I may have already found out what the problem was, but do need a sereis 1 stagea to test it on (works fine on my series 2). For those who weren't at the last melbourne get together - I brought my laptop along and tried it on all the cars. We had problems downloading the entire ROM with the series 1 stagea - my program was getting errors (as were other peoples program ie datascan was just hanging (as it does on about half the cars I try it on)).

I think I've figured out what it was, and we are now getting rom downloads out of cars that nobody has ever been able to download from before... :-)

I'll bring it along in two weeks as well - people can take it for a drive around the block and when they come back we can watch what they did without having to be in the car with them in the first place.... :-)

The problem was that we were scattered all around the different car parks (the park was packed with some big event). So not sure if anyone took pics..

And there was all that spare parking space at the SAU BBQ on the same day!?!

You guys are on here - why the fragmentation on the streets??

OK I know its spelt STAGEA not Skyline, - BUT??

I only ask cause it looks like Turbine (son) is gonna get one and I dont want to have to be trying to cover multiple meets on the same day.

sauvic bbq was for existing and renewing members only (sorta like a "thanks for the support" thing). I don't think any of the melb stagea owners are SAU VIC members, so they couldn't have checked the members section where the BBQ was announced a month ago. I think Alex was the only one who had access, but I think he found out about it a little too late.

seeing as craig whipped skyline arse in his N/A Hyundai Lantra Wagon last time, and there's a few liberty wagons attending this time... you guys should come to the DECA motorkhana day.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
