can I ask what was your cruising speed to get 550Km's to a tank?

I don't mean to brag but I'm gonna, with my new O2 sensor in my fuel light came on at 555Km's and then there's another 120 - 130Km's before I even think of filling up.

just curious, thats all.

thats bloody good fuel economy, i barely get 400kms from mine and i just replaced the o2 sensor...

back on topic, i did a aus trip a couple of years back and it was fun, nothing like just crusing at 150-160 on the nullarbor* just watch out for roos, no dawn or dusk driving :P

*this may or may not be true lol

Yes this is a sad story I did have rims one very late night and a pot hole later the rims got killed so sad that day.

here is a pic on the old rims its on my to do list a Skyline Wa Member sold me his old 33 rims i am happy its that or the ride goes no where!!!!

So again thanks to the member that helped.

As for the plates (was going to Covert it to a GTT in Perth but now she is just going to sit as a GT)

so when its time I will lose the plates for some Vic plates!!!!

And yes I am savin for membership Vic and I would love to go on event/cruise/meet/bbq/etc and become a member of Vic’s Skylines Australia but Sauwa Will still run on me car with the wa/vic members on this site :)

MissR34 it was a joy 2 meet u and have a pic session but I all so did not want to post pics of your ride and mine due to number plates and what not :D but it was a good to have our rides in the same spot at the same time hehe........

sounds like a good trip, and what a good car to do it in. I think my car chews a fair bit of fuel. So if i replace the o2 sensor this may help? as mine is a fresh conversion and all.

congratulations on the drive and the pics look good, would love to see more!

    • Why not? Since mines been built, I've used low boost maybe 5 times.
    • Yeah, so widen your search to any Nissan speedo first, then go wider if needed. I will say though, that there is a better than even chance that what I said first will likely come into play. They quite possibly won't come apart without damage. I tried to disassemble a stepper gauge that I wanted to repair. There was no way that needle was coming off the spindle, and I could not see how the spindle would come out of the mechanism behind. Assembled once, never to be disassembled, was my conclusion. Could be the same on the R34 cluster. Failing that - take the cluster to a workshop that specialises in automotive instrument work. There's usually at least one in every Australian city. They'll either be able to do it for you for small cost, or tell you it can't be done. It might be that "it can't be done" unless you follow some arcane procedure, including trickiness to glue it back together or something, that only experienced techs know.
    • Well, given that I, an engineer, almost never bring out the torque wrench to tighten up chassis bolts, despite fully knowing the theory, and instead rely on feel, which I happen to know is exactly how the majority of mechanics do things, should tell you the level of actual peril that exists from not achieving exactly 88 Nm of torque. How about if I just say then that 88Nm is at the lower end of the correct wheel nut torque range? Everyone knows how to tighten a wheel nut, right? And almost no-one ever brings out the torque wrench for that task
    • Don't be ridiculous. "2-3 ugga duggas or one Oof. You have to use Oof on tie rods because you can't get an ugga dugga on there." Is not helping the guy at all.
    • I have done a lot of research before posting here and on gtruk forum. couldn't find anything. I have my gauges all part except the needle itself. the needle has a extremely small hole in the center, but the shaft going to the needle is extremely small and appears to have nothing to index it either. doesn't seem strong enough to simple pry or pull without damaging something. Already tried the old spoon trick on a extra triple meter I have from a gtt, but no luck. the center cap comes off easily but the hole in the meter face plate aren't big enough to get over the needle itself. figured this would be my best place to find someone who might have actually removed theirs. wonder if there is some type of small pin press tool to push the pin in while pulling the needle base off.
