yeah I wouldn't plan to be parking there. it will be surrounding streets basically whatever you can find. maybe do some skyline car-pooling? :P

dontfeelcold and silhouette are in.

Hi all

Looking for a bit of help, and was wondering whether anyone who has a R34 GTT (preferable) or R33 GTST with SydneyKids group buy kit installed, could give me a quick ride in their car (passenger of course, but if you're willing, driver is also okay).

I wanted to see first hand how the setup deals with crap roads, bumps and so forth.

I am not so concerned with handling because I know it is already top notch, so dont need to be shown how well it corners and so forth.

Can anyone possibly assist? It would be much appreciated!!

Thanks

Hey all,

Firstly a quick intro...

The names Jonathon and i work in the motorsport and development division of Bilstein Australia, which is located within Heasmans.

Thanks for the interest you guys have shown in the night so far. It will be good to see you all come along and pick our brains and check out our facilities and what we do.

One thing Beer Baron hasnt mentioned is that there will be a BBQ dinner for all the SAU members attending. This is included in the night so theres no cost! :(

As for parking, there is limited parking available both out the front and behind. I would recommend coming down the lane at the back as the driveway from the princes hwy is a front spoiler killer. You can also park on the grass out the back if you can get your car up the small gutter.

Anyway, see you all there tomorrow night. :P

Cheers,

Jono

Thanks Jono, I should have mentioned it, but it either slipped my mind, or I think last time I spoke to Neil we hadn't confirmed what we were doing exactly bbq wise.

i finish work at 7ish, would get there at around 730 or just after, would this be a problem?

Even though the skyline has a complete setup from Heasmans looks like i might have to drive the swift because one injector on the line isnt firing properly..

or should i burble it down there and hopefully get some advice, get it looked at in general?

Thanks

Ed

they wont be looking at peoples cars to give specific advice. it's just a general info session. so yeah it doesn't matter if you come by skyline, swift, scooter or skateboard.

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
