Yep. Was a great day - well done Andrew for setting it up.

Considering how many SA members there are it would be good to get

EVERYONE out for a blast one day. There are rarely any cop hassles &

we always have a great time. The Go-karts were good fun too.

Lets do it again sometime.

Cant wait to see the vids & pics.

Yep Awesome day.

I had a ball.. G-karts are super fun.. my sides are a bit sore.. It was cool having other girls out there to race, (Mel, Rob's GF, timmmy) :D Cos i think we were all about the same skill level..haha unlike pawley, mattR diggity.. you are SAU speed demons who take no prisoners.

MADGT4, Friday nights cruise was kinda just a spur of the moment thing. But it was still good cos it was such a good night. I definately think they should be a more regular occurance.

I went down the road ( opposite way to where you left ) and took a right at the end of the street.

I was going along for ages ( 2km or so ) and I came across a slow car ( 40 on a 70 for while ), he/she pulled 3/4 off the road and that is where he/she stayed.

I overtook, didn’t go very hard cos I wasn’t in a hurry, just killing time, and the next thing I know there is a copper going hard in the rear view mirror.

He had to stop because there was a car coming towards him and he couldn’t get around because the other car wouldn’t pull all the way off the road.

Once he got past that he was still coming hard towards me still going hard, when I got to the end of the road I went right before the stream of traffic, I didn’t see him again.

Damn, cop! I didn’t do anything, perhaps someone called the cops after you lot exitited the car park and they where still in the area?

He didn’t do anything about the car that wouldn’t pull off the road when I was around, maybe he did once I left.

He never had his lights or sirens on but was flogging his car to pieces, I have no idea what his problem was.

What time did you lot leave?

Yeah was a good day. I was feeling a little too seedy to get my fat ass in a Go Kart However ....there's always next time.

Vid looks good too. My car looks SLOW!!! but I guess every1 says that :D (About their own cars ..not mine ..well I hope!)

Maybe next time we can goto a different pub though ...As we went to the same one last SAU cruise ??

Was good to catch up with some of you girls again too (Mel, Erica & Tim) :)

    • Welcome.  Glad to hear that you have gained some knowledge that has helped you. I believe the only fix for the power steer belt is an electric conversion with a Holden astra pump. If you get a chance, post pics of your car, please. 🙂
    • Just ordered those bosses, hopefully that does the trick thank you very much everyone for your replies it's really appreciated  
    • to have this type of adjustment possible with a curve as I wish, what budget (engine) should be planned?  
    • People still have Skylines? I thought they're non-existent now. 
    • Harness update time have had great fun and learnt so much already so far with this project. I started off making both the ignition and injector sub harnesses in the hope any mistakes i made here aren't as hard to undo and learn from as the main harness.  A cool comparison of the old harness using presumably TXL wire and the new which is using Tezel. Also opted to use DTM plugs to keep the whole setup as neat and tidy as possible and tucked the wiring under the coil bracket to try and keep it all from sticking out too much. Although the injector harness, I'm not overly happy with as I'm still using the rubber boots that are supplied with the type of plugs it just looks ugly and sticks out like a sore thumb with the white identifiers so a slight redesign may be done.   Then it was main harness time and most importantly trying to route it nice and away from the heat it will use the OEM heater hose routing which is no longer present to keep the harness up high and secure. it's amazing how much smaller this harness is able to be compared to the old one. plugged everything into the emtron and with the help of the tuner again attempted to start it up and instantly fired up and running smoothly on all 6 which was a big shock to myself. So still some routing and adjusting to be done for the final fit up and installing a knock sensor harness plug which is in the post all has gone surprisingly well.     The old harness for shits and giggles.
