Ok, as requested by pat, gonna do a cruise down to sutton rd for texi.

Date: 19/5/12

Meet: cross roads KFC

Time: 5:30pm

Leave: 6pm

Cross roads KFC is pretty central, then hit the highway, and cruise on down.

Please note, NO stupid behavior.

That's why were going to sutton.

Let me know if you're coming.

And we will leave pretty much on the dot.

Hope to see you there, cheers, Luke.

haha thanks Luke, yeah i was going to do one but i had a lunch date to rush to so was leaving it to...well now.

Any chance i can ask one more favour? a GPS address for this KFC so i can just punch it in and forget about it, are we sure we want to time the exit with peak hour? no chance of a lunch or mid afternoon escape so we can get out there in time for dinner? Or are you hankering for some fried chicken as road dinner...

pwned by Shell yet again!

yeah i didnt realise that 'crossroads' was actually a legit name for a place, figured it was just some kind of in house shorthand for somewhere i was clueless about..thanks for doing the legwork for me though :)

See you on the saturday i guess!

sorry guys, i did mean the 18th, realised, but was already back to work(wrote up at lunch).

unfortunately, the wife has to work.

im putting in for an annual leave day, otherwise, i dont get home until 6.....

in regards to peak hour, its more on the tail end of the traffic congestion, so just pray its not too bad.

either way, im quite content to head down with just bthe missus, but also wouldnt mind others cruising with.

just hope its not raining...

facebook event was a good call, gf wont finish till 5 and thats in balmain..what are the chances of making it to the crossroads by 615?

(she has no sickies left..farken)

i know sweet F all right? still could be worth a shot..

is dave the only one leaving earlier?

Maybe get her to ask her boss nicely if she can leave an hour or 2 early.

I don't know what she does, but would it be possible to start a little early, so she can leave early?

Hope something can be organised.

Looks like I might be the only one leaving early Patty, the way I see it is I'd rather get down there at a reasonable hour, get settled, have a feed and a few bevvies then get to bed at a resonable hour.

I must be getting old :(

yeah i get your logic dave and would definitely be in the same boat (33 now arrrgh) except for the womans problems..typical eh?

she is prevaricating about coming anyway so depending on what goes down before next friday i might see you on the way there after all..

I will be leaving West Ryde area circa 2:30pm on Friday 18 May, hoping for a cruisey drive and 5:30-6pm arrival at Eagle Farm Hawk Caravan Park thingo with beer in hand shortly thereafter. Might see you on the Hume Dave074?!

I can guarantee I'll be sitting on the deck, feet up with brews in hand by then haha. I'm going down through the day too, if you want to tag along then cool

More than one brew at a time...excellent. By then I will have been (self imposed) 5 weeks off the grog so VERY thirsty.

what time and from where are you leaving Steveo?

    • Nah it factory manual not sure about ratio but it looks like there’s been some work at the rear

    • Throwing my spoon to the soup here a bit.  When I installed a 044 back in 2012, along with the direct power mod, the car became very difficult to start. To a point I burned one starter motor as I was late for work and tried to get the thing going. With some tuning and careful use of gas pedal when cranking it became bearable. Trying to make this short as possible, but the 044 died after 2-3 years, after which I went with an AEM 320lph pump, which also died after about 4 years to my dismay. After that I went with a Nismo pump, and while trying diagnose an emissions problem, I noticed for the first time that my fuel pressure was 5bar/72psi on idle, and that removing the vacuum line did nothing. After monitoring the situation, and removing the direct power feed and going back to FPCM in attempts to remedy it, I noticed there was fuel in the pressure regulator vac line. Kept the FPCM, installed AEM external regu and the car became sooo much better in every way, including starting. And I had driven it like it was for 11 years.. Anyway, I agree these are likely two different problems, and the FP problem you just haven't noticed before. I do not know much about haltecs, but what first came to mind was the CAS, which probably is not there any more. So how is the wiring from haltec to gauge cluster? How is the battery voltage and alternator?
    • Your car was auto before? You have different diff ratio (auto vs manual i think? or n/a and turbo?)
    • +1 for getting a screen off alibaba, CarPlay/Android Auto is vastly better than whatever navigation cars had 10 years ago. I got an Android screen for my 2015 BMW, huge difference. Fully compatible with factory stuff including iDrive controls.
