You need to talk to the admin about those type of things, we don't have control over that. all we know/care about is if you want to come to an event anybody is welcome to do so
I have seen motorbikes turn up to a cruise and they were welcomed because the more the merrier
Sorry mate, I think I was taking this a little off topic. I guess what I am saying is a bit of a philosophical topic.
I agree that its great that anyone can join SAU and join these cruises. Hopefully I can attend myself!

I think honestly there are probably a few people around on these forums that just dislike the V, but that's just their opinion. If you don't like the V they shouldn't buy one. I haven't been to a meet yet but plan too, I'm sure it won't that bad.
-
Yeah but at what point are they still skylines? is the upcoming Q100 a skyline? The Q50, Q60 too. Is SAU going to be a place to discuss these models? Organise meets etc?
-
Seeing a speed camera in a 70 zone and going 45 just in case.
-
It doesn't matter. Most of the active club members haven't owned a skyline for years. Some have never owned them.
So
Anyone planning on selling me a boost controller cheap?
What's boost?
*was a joke*

I'm very interested to know what is going to happen when people start to buy the local sold Infinitis and that the "Infiniti Skyline" is actually going to be a thing. In the constitution it is considered that anything with a "Skyline" badge is a skyline, so this could cover Prince, Nissan and Infiniti. But at what point does the V-series crowed just become the Infiniti crowd?
Damn you Nissan for complicating things!

Cheers guys, hopefully it just a greasing like you suggest. I'm not damaging anything by driving it with the click am I?

Seems identical to this

Posted in 'the gallery', but didn't receive any responses, so guessed that i had posted in the wrong thread... Just picked up a V36 370 a couple of weeks ago. Finally decided to replace my 4door R32 GTSt. It is the 'S' variant, and very happy with it (apart from the Japanese GPS of course). Shopped around for a bit before buying from Road and Track at Silverwater. Great to deal with, and the car came with de-registration certificate from Japan, giving me some piece of mind as to legitimate kms (apparently a common issue from what I had been reading). Sorry, only took basic shots at my place with a camera phone. BTW the rear wheels aren't not quite as low as they look; the positioning in my driveway is causing that! Loving the car, and looking forward to the next Sydney Skyline cruise.
Dat Grille! Although I'm probably a bigger fan of a body colour painted version with unblackened badge, but still that looks sick.

All Skyline? Does that mean V-Series?

Wild V35 Appears!

According to my computer I'm getting about that, although I do a lot of slow traffic driving every day so mine goes as low at 6.5-7

Mint set painted in like a gunmetel on ebay for 850
mmmm, those look awesome, the darker colour might match up better with a white car. I am probably going to paint my grille black too.
Thanks for the heads up

^ is there anything you don't know? lol

LOL I never even thought of that! I'm going to test this when I head home in an hour.
-
How hard are these to get? This is exactly the look im going for.
-
I'd love a set of those myself, all I can find however are the infiniti branded ones from the US. There are usually plenty of those but I'm guessing it would be pretty difficult and expensive to ship here. I would just swap the caps to Nissan though.
And yeah, curb damage seems to be a popular theme with this car lol
-
Thanks Howaitonaito, I guess they are genuine Nissan afterall.
And yeah Yo-Yo I agree, going to spend a little on a new set and will be putting on a set of spacers like nightcrawler has said.
Not sure if I want to go with 18" or 19"
-
I'm still new and not yet a member myself but as I can see Skylines Australia is split up into State Chapters ie Skylines New South Wales, Queensland, Victoria etc etc.

So when I bought this car, the guy was saying that included in the price was these none standard wheels. Fair enough, they do look better than the stock standard ones I thought and I went with it. But are these even OEM 350GT wheels?
This is what I found for stock wheels for the 350GT
This is what I have
So by the looks of it, the couple only had 18" and 19" wheels, the sedan had 16", 17" and 18".
They look decent but why are they only 17"? They appear to be genuine Nissan, maybe from a Maxima or something? I cant find them anywhere.
I'll have to check but I think they are 215 front 235 rear. Seems like a downgrade and a rippoff.

As some of you may know i attempted to put a VQ25DET from a stagea into my 250GT. Well it didnt work for various reasons. So now when people say "oh stageas and skylines are the same only one is a wagon and one is a sedan" - its a load of crap. The only thing they really share is the front doors, windscreen, dash and other little bits, the rest is either slightly different or totally different.
So we ended up cleaning out the plenums and intake, new spark plugs and other bits aswell. Got some V35 forged rays factory tick option wheels. NOTE: these are not 350Z wheels.
I also put on a aero bumper.
Big thanks to Scotty aswell!!
I can't wait to see that painted. That is going to look rediculously good.
Very nice work mate, I think Nissan should have chosen that for the front end of the sedan to begin with. Perhaps looks even better than the coupe.

I have the 04' premium and folding the seat forward usually causes it to move forward on its own but sometimes it doesnt. Not sure what the cause is but I do have some strange passenger side issues for a few electrical things like the mirror, lock accuator. Have you tried using the latch thing on the back of the seat?

Hi all
I'm getting this strange noise that sorta sounds like a plastic peg hitting concrete. Sounds like it is coming from the driver's side wheel arch.
It's not a constant sound like a pebble in the tire but tends to happen at low speeds and when the car is accelerating or decelerating.
I actually hit something on the road a few months back, what ever it was grabbed onto the flange that connects the Y-Pipe and the rest of the exhaust. It pulled it back at least an inch which completely destroyed the vibration absorbers. Long story short I have a new exhaust from the Y-pipe (the guy saved that and just fitted new absorbers).
So now I'm thinking I also f**ked something in the suspension, anyone heard this sound before?

Yes, has to happen.
