A big thank you to Patrick (and Flick) for all your hard work and also for paying out of your own pocket for elements of the SAU display. Thank you to everyone that was involved and assisted in the lead-up and during the event (you know who you are). I’d also like to say ‘thanks mate’ to Shaun (Evil34) for helping me get my car up to scratch on the Saturday morning.

Well done to all involved. Congratulations on the two club awards and Cara's individual award - not a bad effort for our first go!

Also whatsisname, NICE f**king engine bay... one of the best I have seen.

Thanks mate. It’s not finished yet… but I’m getting there.

Matts car looked hell sweet, just need a nice dyno sheet sitting with it when its done lol

Cheers Dan. Good to meet you. Agreed! Hopefully won’t be too much longer.

spewing, it wasn't up when i went and that one was of the main reason's i went!

Sorry dude! I figured the event wasn’t far off finishing up (4-5pm) so I thought I may as well close it all up. You should’ve given me a yell, I would’ve been happy to open it up for you.

Who's car has the engine bay with the Trust Coil cover??? cause omg that was soooooooo nice, one of the nicest engine bays ive ever seen on a skyline.

Yep, that’s mine. Thanks mate.

Mxtcy / Jared,

Loved both your cars, both of them are super clean and have tasteful mods, in fact every one of the SAU cars looked the goods – including the SAU members cars that were entered in Autosalon outside of the SAU entry. Puresx is outstanding and in my opinion is the epitome of a ‘useable’ show car.

i reckon heading to the final battle would be a great idea, get to see the best of cars from australia really and i hear there's some pretty powerful skylines from queensland and western australia but not sure if they're in it yet.

You could join up with SAU-NSW as I'm sure sinful or NASIIN would be keen in organising another group display. Would like to go up again if there's another track or drag day too. :P

Last time I was over a GT-R made 745awkw & Gas Motosport's 2JZ made 813rwkw.

whats ur point dan, they are all still living in the past with all that chrome shit. lol.

It's like they took their dished stuff off and put on the chrome just because its autosalon.

only one with the right idea was that 300zx. thats tough, almost overkill dish on the widebody.

      G35 Control arm and Compression Rods into a V35 Skyline.

      By Duncan · Posted

      "lol dunno" either But like you, I can't see any reason they would need to be different LHD to RHD

      I agree with you WRT the hard top. MX5's may be one of the better looking soft tops but I cannot think of ANY car, EVER that looks better with a soft top vs a hard top (or a designed roof). At all, ever. I also feel this way about the C5 Vette, the Z06 looks horrible compared to it's original form, it has an exaggerated version of the differences you're talking about.

      G35 Control arm and Compression Rods into a V35 Skyline.

      By Last Phantom · Posted

      Hey crew, Failed my WOF cause of a lower control arm, and I've decided to hit both arms, and also the compression rods at the same time(seems they're gonna be the most likely upcoming failure points from some discussions with the lads over on the G35 reddit). I've looking at these form Z1:  https://www.z1motorsports.com/front-suspension/hayaku-automotive/hayaku-g35-front-compression-rod-p-40716.html https://www.z1motorsports.com/front-suspension/hayaku-automotive/hayaku-g35-front-lower-control-arm-p-40674.html I asked Z1 if they'd work as it's the same platform, just RHD vs LHD. I basically got told "Lol dunno". Specifically they aren't aware of any difference but can't guarantee fitment as they haven't done it on a 350GT. So guess I'm asking is if there is any issues with using 2005 G35 coupe suspension parts on a 2005 350GT coupe? Orginally I thought it could be something in the way of the arms that each control arm is designed to be positioned around, but that'd be an engineering nightmare for Nissan needing two different shaped control arms 😅

      Help needed issue with heater core blower and actuator and need someone to fix this and reinstall dash - 32 - Gtst

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      ^ This. The mode door actuator is a common failure, as is the actuator and/or the actual valve for the coolant flow control valve. I also don't know how available the mode door actuator is these days. I've been meaning to look into it and get one from wherever is possible, to keep in the shed for the rainy day when mine eventually fails. Anyway, the advice to you is to search the usual NOS part supply places, or even just go to Nissan and see what they list.

      Have you got a pic of the actuator? My guess is that unit has failed internally and was flopping around, so the previous engineer who owned it forced it to be fully open to cold air (blocking the heater core path). As far as you can tell, is anything else wrong in the system? Likely you just need a new actuator (not sure how available they are) and then "installation is the reverse of disassembly"
