Hi Lads,

Still reasonably new to the sxoc. Just wondered if the meets were private amongst you lads or if new members could come......like me :) Do i have to join the north west region club as well as the sxoc main club?
Also, where are the meets held and when. If its during the week at night, i may struggle cause i work nights :sleep: but if they're at weekends, the jobs a dream! :nod: (i suppose i could take the night off though)

Nice one lads.

Andy.

Dr Bob
17-11-2004, 02:12
no need to join the club unless you want a pint or a three course meal at Mascrat from me. you're welcome to bob along. we are a friendly bunch sometimes :wack: . Mascrat is always second monday of the month; Yorkshire OPO meet is third thursday.

next weekend thing will be the RR meet at Prosport on the 27th, and you'll be made welcome if you bob along there. if you fancy running then check the separate thread and sign up if there are spaces.

welcome :thumbs:

Kuddy
17-11-2004, 08:27
hi :wave:

The Mascrat meet is a bloody big turnout of nice jap cars. Vez comes down from Preston way so it might be good to convoy down with him.

Bob, you're forgetting I can edit your posts :wack:

Cheers lads,

Where is mascrat? have you got a postcode or somet then i can look it up please? If thats ok with Vez, i'll tag along with him. I'll have to organise a meet point if i'm 100% defo coming.

So, the next meet is 13th december, I finish work for xmas on 10th dec, so i can make that night :cool:

You lads dont happen to know/remember a guy called Dez that used to be a regular on the website, had a white s14. Used to go to these meets regular. from preston? I work with him, may roll down with him and he can tell you stories of how good his saxo VTS is!!!! :ghey:

At the bottom of the sliproad is a roundabout with a pub on it. Stop at the pub :thumbs:

A few first timers have said it's hard to break into established groups of people already chatting.
Same as any other similar situation, just stick your head in, introduce yourself, and offer to buy everyone beer. Can't fail :)

Sir Nodrick
18-11-2004, 05:32
I can understand why people may say its hard to be accepted into an established group, but i shall try my best to fit in. My experience of the lads on the forum i've talked to through the threads upto now has proven them to be a good set of lads so i'm sure it'll be cool :cool:

Just been on multimap and searching the web for mascrat manor pub and have got directions just in case vez leaves me for dust on the motorway!!!! he he. :thumbs:

Is it a pub meet inside or do you hang around outside with the cars like at a cruise?

Dr Bob

Sir Nodrick
19-11-2004, 01:19
Thats great. I look forward to meeting you all. What time does it start?

Just whilst i'm on, when someone says on the website that their car has been "de-bricked", does that mean they've no cat? :confused: I'm fully de-bricked aswell (only joking officer!)

Vez

:nod:

As has been said, Mascrat is a jap car meet so it is a bit difficult to know who is SXOC and who is there with another marque. Best plan is to look for groups of people looking in the engine bay of a 200 for shiny bits and just butt into the conversation. Have a look at the who's who thread and you may be able to recognise some of us from that :thumbs:

I think I'll be in my S14 this time for a change. Look for a white S14 and the chances are it will be me. Or Tombs. Or TomM as he's taken to calling himself now :confused:

See you there :wave:

TomM
02-12-2004, 23:36

I'll change it back if you would all feckin call me Tom in real life, and not Tombs...

I might pop op myself, haven't been for a while. Might email Stuymac and Piehound up see if they fancy a run up and a quick pint

Tenman
03-12-2004, 15:35
heh, even though I know I still find it hard to call you Tom rather than Tombs...

Jon
03-12-2004, 19:39
Aaaah, TomM, the noob with loads of posts.

I don't think I've ever met TomM (apologies if I have) but I can see Tombs being a problem for a doctor.

At least I think you're a doctor, with the limb removal posts and all. Sorry if I'm assuming.

Tom Emm it is :thumbs:

Aitch
03-12-2004, 21:16

:no:

The clue was in the name Tombs - he's a mad axe murderer who dismembers his victims. Possibly. :confused:

SL25
04-12-2004, 20:05
If either of you have in-car PC's sorted by then expect me to be sitting in your cars all night figuring out how you've done it....LOL.

Seriously though, would love a look if either of you have it sorted by then. :thumbs:

Can someone bring some electrical bits and pieces and sort my AVC-R out? Generous helpings of cash/beer/snacks to the winner :D

Tbone
12-12-2004, 19:24
andy

give us an idea of what you need?

andyf
12-12-2004, 19:27
well, Ant is I think popping over tonight to take a look at it .

Problem is this - Turbo Timer and AVC-R are plumbed into the S14 ecu. At the moment the AVCR is getting power through the back of the turbo timer, so everything currently shuts off when you turn ignition off. The problem is that a) the AVC-R isn't reading the RPM sensor properly, and b) its not actually controlling boost since it was rewired for power.

So preferably, and if possible, I'd like the turbo timer stripped out as I don't use it, and the AVC-R set up 100%. The Turbo Timer has a working RPM sensor so I guess the AVC-R could just use whatever it is using and life should be good.

Not sure what's needed. Tools, and lots of wire/solder, patience? :)

Kuddy
12-12-2004, 20:27
lots of light would be a good starting point :nod: It's a bit dark at Mascrat.


I'll have the calendars there too. If people who haven't paid could bring EXACT cash or cheque please. Ta muchly.

andyf
12-12-2004, 20:35
Ant's just worked some minor magic on the car and refitted a Bren device ;) we're back up to 1 bar again :D

No idea what's happened with the AVC-R. everything seemed ok yet it just doesn't control the boost.

Might not make it, the Xmas doo pictures were just too much for me to take.
Nah, still feeling like sh!t, dont fancy standing around in the cold, and making my cold last even longer.

If I dont make it could you pass my Calender (Paid) to one of the Blackburn lads, Tenman/Petrol, or even Vez if he could drop it at Petes next time he is there.

I'll see how I feel, and what the weather is like when I get home.
