Ok, hopefully some of the people that couldnt last time can this time,

Well, based on last times events, I would have to say that Jells Park is a good location because there are heaps of BBQ's if its a nice day, heaps of parking, and not TOO far for anyone. (Unlike areas of the dandenongs etc)

So, Melbourne Stagea Meet #2

Location: Jells Park Wheelers Hill Map 71, K7

Date: First weekend in Febuary, Sunday Feb 5th, Midday 12:00 Noon.

Events: BBQ session, BYO food/drinks, chats etc

We will use the same carpark as last time. Enter through the "in" gate, go around the big carpark in a circle, take the south heading left turn at the turning point and then proceed to the third car park on the right with BBQ's next to it. Circled in red. The road is one way, so follow the red arrows.

Make sure you bring seats this time, last time the benches were all wrecked. Bring some food too, drinks are good also.

So lets get a list of who will be (or want to be) coming

1. AlexCim - White S1 RS4

2. [ STAGEN ] - White S1 RS4

3. Burns - Silver S1 RS4

4. bluesky4me - ??? - Import/Compliance dependent attendance

6. wagon - Silver S1 RS4

I left a months notice so that people could get the cars on the road by then or have theirs arrive from being imported.

I MAY have manualized the car by then, less the interior.

Also the suspension should definatly be in there too ;)

I am puting the deposit on my new baby tomorow..

When people mention 'deposit' and 'baby' in the one sentenance, they normally aren't talking about cars - though the stagea does have enough room in the back..

I'll probably be able to make it. Bayside Blue, Series 2, Four S :-)

I have sent out PM's to

- stagi-r

- michaeljquinn

- muck

With a link to this post, hopefully we will make this meet HUGE (in stagea standards) hehe

I work shift work (12hr) and have to work that day,but i keep an eye on everything and sooner or later i'll make it. I have missed all the GTI-R owners ones for the last 3 years!!

I AM a member of SAU VIC, but noones bloody given me that blue thing yet!

I went to the Xmas BBQ too!!

Ive got all my cards, lanyards etc, but no membership yet :D

Anyone that isnt a Stagea owner, but wants to find out more is more then welcome to come. Hopefully this can convince some people to actually buy stageas :P

Ian came to the show and shine we held from memory.

Yep, dropped in with a very dirty bayside blue S2, and was surprised people were interested in it :-) - though I did not enter the competition (and next time I'll give it a wash, and I still haven't fixed the broken mirror). Would have taken the R34 around except the wife was in it... :-) (plug, the R34 is for sale, http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...showtopic=98570, as we really don't need two cars! :-)

But no, I haven't joined the vic SAU, every time I go to do it I get too confused by the forms....

    • Well some mostly good news and some slight bad news.  Good news is cylinder 6 did in fact only require a honing and I'm good to run my 86.5mm pistons again. I should also get the block back by end of week. Bad news, had a few surprises pop up. First, main and rod bearings were trashed. No sign of any heat damage. I knew right away what caused this... I had not packed my oil pump originally and spent a lot more time than I would have liked cranking the motor to get oil pressure. It sounded fine once started so I chucked it up to luck and forgot about it. Luckily rod and crank are fine and just need new bearings. Engine builder agreed that this was the cause.    Another surprise that carbon covered up very well that I didn't catch, something got sucked up and went through cylinder 1, 2 and 3. Luckily this was no cause for concern, just needed a bit of cleaning up. Valves look fine but he will vacuum test the head this week to confirm. I'm presuming this was something left over from welding my intercooler piping, but we'll never know. I'm going to thoroughly reclean everything.    So all in all, happy the motor is fine, and I'll get it back much sooner than expected. I'll also be taking the time to convert my WMI system over to direct port. I'll snap some pictures of that when the parts come in. 
    • I understand, thanks. Yeah I wouldn't want the car to tip over, I'll try and use the sills, I don't want to risk smashing the chassis rails. I ordered some rubber pucks that have a hopefully big enough slotting. If the front right gives me trouble I can always just make a wood block. I'll measure and inspect the sills closer once I actually take the car up. I hope so, but the rubber blocks I had in hand so far were pretty damn firm, if they are that hard they won't give much way. I'll let you know what happens. Angle grinding rubber isn't one of my favorite tasks. I'll probably start a build thread soon, for my own documentation and "log" as well as sharing what's going on with the car.
    • Kinda something I have been thinking about.  To be honest, we bought it already driving like that.  So there's no telling how long it actually has been driving like this.  Hopefully damage is too bad when we drop the pan.   I am having a hard time finding a site that sells the solenoid for the 5 speed auto, do you have any suggestions?
    • That'll be most likely down the road...  LOL  
    • a stock / option or aftermarket?
