so, this was an interesting day

get my rego renewal for the patrol. tells me to ring them up as there's problems

ring them up

"oh, your car is defected"

"no its not"

"yes it is, 17th march it got done"

"riiiight........i got that cleared"

rang sturt. they punched it into the system and voila..........im still flagged as defected. Said i came in and got it cleared a few days after, but ive since (read: a month ago) ripped up the slip as i thought id never need it again. They just rang me (mid me typing this post) to tell me in the last 3 and a bit hours of checking the till receipts, they found my receipt and have put the defect thru as cleared in the system (finally)

what a lol

Thats why i always keep the defect forms in my glovebox, Its happend to me before aswell.

soooo ..... I bought my new car today :)

It is in the final stages of beig complied, and I will fly to Melbourne to pick it up in a couple of weeks.

Who is up for a road trip? Thining of flying to Melb late Sat 11th July returning Sun 12th July - stay overnight at sister-in-law's place/go out on the piss, then leave early Sunday morning for home.

Please don't ask what it is, and the few people that already know, please don't give it away :rofl:

Cool guys, will work out flights etc tomorrow. So can you 3 let me know if you are 100% up for it? I can 'pay' for you all via frequent flyer points if you each give me $80 (that's what the points equate to), else you could catch the red eye Saturday morning and book your own flight for $139 (cheapest fare) and spend the day in Melbourne before I fly in. Unfortunately the cheapest flights on my desired flight at 3:15pm ex-Adl are $200 :) - hence my offer to pay via Frequent Flyer points - or if you have your own feel free to do that too - 8,000 points. Think about it and let me know tomorrow 100%.

Not sure how many people I want to take .... but 4 of us might be a nice number for a bit of fun. If there is 4 though, we might have to get a hotel room .... but still we all would theoretically fit at my sister-in-laws. Will think harder about that.

Super excited about the car - it is the same colour, model and specs as the one I had discussed with a few of you, but is not the actual car I was looking at - it is a different car (obviously) from Melbourne. Much better car, for a much better deal.

I dunno about the details but I'd be happy to cruise up to the border at keith or mt gambier or whatever and meet up

-D

Hmm, random, spur of the moment flight/road trip?

I'll see what I've got on that weekend :)

that JZX100 markII looks awesome man.

I almost bought on instead of my GTR - Was looking at them and the normal JZX100's. But imo they're still a big 4dr and I wanted something totally different in terms of driving style so thats what pushed me towards the GTR.

Few sexy jzx100's floating around fs

    • AFM looks to be a z32 The injectors maybe old Nismo 555cc The turbo tag when looked up seems to be a gt2871 , imagine it would have the bigger rear housing .82 all look like the mid 00's mods when he started building it up. Vac hose seems right but would need to see a diagram. Great work going up there and sorting it out, be a good club car for someone wanting a good reliable rig.  I know I would like to have it but no space and too many other race cars at the moment.
    • Heys guys I got a r32 gtst speedo is out by 10kph seems the faster I go the more it be out  just seeing if anyone else had to problem and knows how to fix it 
    • I can't agree. If we hadn't all been brought up with the noise caused by the inefficiency of an ICE, no-one would actually ask for all that. An EV is like any other car, it just goes better. 
    • 2 more things I have to work out Easy one first...can anyone describe how to pull the fuel pump and sender from a 33? I can feel there is some sort of mount and clips but don't have a manual and don't know the trick......if not I'll spend some quality time in the boot witha lighter tomorrow. Second question is harder.  He had changed the upper plenum to a plazmaman but clearly got to a point with the vacuum hoses where he said "f**k it, I'm going inside for a beer" and never came back to that job because it was a mess. Am I right to think that I need: 1. Pre throttle (16mm nipple on inlet) to AAC's main 20mm fitting as the main pre throttle feed 2. ACC has a second 13m outlet joined to that 20mm fitting which I think is the pre throttle air supply for the cold start valve? 3. Cold start valve's outlet fitting then goes to Plenum (to bypass throttle?) There is some adapter on the back of the ACC with 2 fittings (13mm and 10mm), do I run the 10mm through a 1 way valve to the Brake Booster (4) and the 13mm back to a 13mm nipple on the Plenum as the Idle control (5)? 6. Run a 6mm vacuum line from the Turbosmart BOV to the Plenum? 7. Run a 5mm vacuum line from the Fuel Pressure Reg to the Plenum? 8. Run a 5mm vacuum line from the Turbosmart Boost controller to the Plenum? (Wastegate already has a pre turbo pressure source running to the solenoid then the wastegate on the other side of the bay)  Any help appreciated, the GTR is quite different setup and while the Stagea also has FFP it is different again. (And no Dose, I'm not pissing it all off and putting a ethrottle on it....)
    • OK, onto some questions to try and speed up the process a little. Does anyone know what core this Garret is? I know it is a high flowed standard turbo but nothing else about it. Tag says OK 0169J - 446179-5032 Same question for the injectors, I don't know what they flow and ideally can work it out before it hits the dyno, they are a mustard yellow side feed
