Well here I am, in a little rural town of england, not much of a car scene, Ive seen one or two coswroths, heaps of porshces' mercs, and beamers, lots of $$ drving around the roads. No skylines yet.

The town im staying in is good, very small, and cosy you could say. Im staying at the back of the pub im working in, not the greatest accomidation, but its a place to sleep, so I cant complain.

Anyway, I better go, its pretty cold, and ive got a 20min walk back to the pub.

Cheers

hehe.. doxx ill buy ya a pint, its only about £2 for a beer, which is over a litre, its great!

I seen two skylines yesterday, a nice r32 GTR, and an r33 GTS with a GTR badge on it, YES its true, they have lots of ricers over here as well.

Kamikaze, I went around london the other day and seen alot of the sites, such as big ben, and the palace, and few other awesome places, things are so old here its amazing, australia, really needs some decent history hehe.

Im gonna try and catch up witha few of the GTR UK guys, and get them to come down to the pub im working at for a meet, that should be great.

Good to see your all doing well, INASNT, you should just pack up your stuff, and come meet me.. you'll love it.

There are some AWESOME roads here, so i gotta try and hire a car for the day, get some driving in.

cheers.

yep mate, just workign and living in a pub over here, earn a few pounds then travel on that.

everything here is pretty expensive, so its good to earn thier money, and spend thier money, that way you dont lose to much in conversion from AUD.

Ive got a pretty good normal camera, I didnt bring the digi cam, but i'm sure some of the GTR UK guys do.

I'll keep you all posted.

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
