Hi all,

I bought a JDM R35 GTR a couple weeks ago (thread about this in R35 GTR Discussion). I will be looking to install a mid pipe, Cobb tune, reverse camera, window tints etc. - nothing too wild.

I used to own an R33 GTST (one of the best cars I have owned) a few years ago and look forward to joining the Skyline community again!

Just a bit of an upgrade from the old line aye.... :)

Hi everyone,

Im Katie, just joined up. Moved here 4 months ago from Ireland with my boyfriend. Living in Brisbane. Currently in the process of re-building a r32 Gtst. She finally got started yesterday-music to our ears biggrin.gif . Going to the paint shop soon and after a few 'slight' modifications thumbsup.gif she should be out Aug/Sept time-fingers crossed.

This is the first Skyline weve had. Back in Ireland I was a BMW chick, had a e36 m-sport and then my wee baby e30 325i sport. My boyfriend has a white 87 ae86 sitting under a coverage in the garage at home aswell. If anyone is interested, I have loads of pics.

So back in Ireland, people with all sorts of modified cars meet up at the weekends and go for a cruise or a show, what happens here in Australia? We have spotted loads of class cars driving about but can never find them all in one spot.

Nice site by the way, hopefully get to know a few of the members during our stay here and get some Skyline advise (im sure we'll need it).

By the way, my boyfriend and I are huge driftin and diffin fans, we used to do it every weekend at home and are having serious withdrawl symptoms over the last 4 months, so if theres anything coming up soon let me know.

Thanks

Katie

Hi Kate and welcome to aus :)

Im not a drifter myself but i know theres a website called secretdrift.com.au that should have all you need to know about events and other info.

As for other car meets, Ive just started going to a meet on Thursday nights in Brizy with some of the guys from sau, you and your man should come along.....Heres the thred we chat on http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/18...html&st=120

Welcome all!! :)

Hey Katie, Drifts are on at QR (Queensland raceway) Every month on a friday night..

I think the next one is on July 31st..

Starts at around 6.. Def check it out.. :banana:

Also there are drifts on a much tighter (Gocart) track at Archifield.. Also on friday nights..

cheers for the welcome folks and the pm.

Ice cream meets, how class does that sound?!?!?! Deffo up for that when we get the car out. Like I said should be Mid Aug hopefully.

Looked into the drifing at the QR, havnt been but the membership is reasonable, so hope to get back on the track pretty soon, although its pretty different from home. Drifting comes second after diffin (for those of you that dont know what diffing is - i think its an irish thing - look up diffin on youtube)

Cool, thanks again for the welcome and hope to see ya's soon

Katie

I've already introduced myself in the other section, but thought I should say hi here seeing that I'm a Qld'er.

I'm Paul, I got a R32 GTR that I've been throwing money at for the past few years, I'm hoping to have it finished and running soon. My other addiction is of the two wheeled kind, but guess thats not for this forum.

cheers

    • That could very well be the thermistor, but the ECU only sees Volts. VDO don't seem to provide a 0-5 volt curve, only the resistance curve.... (or line).
    • Yes. Probably, given that there is only access from the bottom end of it, go with a drill bit. Don't start too small. 7 or 8mm is probably the right size. You want something that can make a big enough hole to do some damage, but not so bit that it clashes with the steel or binds up and breaks your wrist. A slow speed is probably a good idea too. Once the rubber is destroyed, you then have to get the crush tube off the stud, which will be the whole heat/oil/cutting exercise all over again, but this time with the need to strictly avoid damaging the stud (any further than the corrosion might already have done.
    • We replaced the connector just because we could and it was still there, once we swapped the injectors around it stopped. The injectors were something I had thoughts of replacing even before I first started the engine and in hindsight I should have 
    • Not too sure just yet, want to have a go at doing what I can myself, but to start with want someone to cast their eye over it tell me what needs doing to get it running and back on the road, so anyone with great overall knowledge would be ideal.
    • I personally would go with cutting out the rubber. Then deal with getting sleeve off separately. Rubber can be painful to cut, it loves to jam up cutting tools. I normally have success with drill bits, deburr bits, angle grinders, jigsaw, reciprocating saw, and never forget... fire. Obviously different tools won't work in all locations you're trying to work with, and you need to be comfortable with each. You personally may be happy slowly slicing it out with a razor blade, if you are, go for it with one too! Feel free to wait for others to weigh in also on their thoughts.
