100% of the cars you saw in that car park probably had defects too bud. It isnt any better up here. :D

It's good you enjoyed yourself.

I see alot of R32's, and R33's up here, as per usual, but what I've so many of since I've been up here are S13 Silvia's.

I just moved to the Gold Coast from Sydney,.. honestly I miss Sydney, but that's mainly because I don't know anyone up here, and have no clue what to do, or where to go on weekends.

The Broadwater car park definately seems to be a saturday night hotspot,... the first weekend I was up here was when the cops defected something like 119 cars, and confiscated 7, something along those lines anyway.

I went to check it out for the first time last saturday, although I'd usually try to stay clear from such attention, in Sydney anyways,... but I got nothing better to do up here as of yet.

I didn't realise before how far Brisbane city is from the Gold Coast,.... so is Surfer's the only place to go out on weekends?

Welcome dude

You sure picked a great city to move to. Gold coast is awesome. Soon you will have many friends and maybe a few hotties ( preferably in bekini's and not mankini's ). Anyway, enjoy yourself, i sure you will find some good spots to hang out. Also, Gold coast is sometimes a hotspot for defect cops. Just make sure your car is legal and you won't have any problems.

the Gold Coast isnt that far From Brisbane

Now in Sydney.....well EVERYWHERE is far there! I got told Parramatta wasnt 'that' far to the city....my ass it takes frigging ages!

Gold Coast is like 40-50 mins from Brisbane so I hear.

Parramatta is only 30 mins from the city. The only reason why it probably seems long is that there's 10x more traffic in Sydney, especially if you don't take the M4.

Driving for 30mins from Parra to a nightclub in the city is normal,... but now I'll have to drive 50mins along the M1 to get to Brisbane ?

After checking out Surfer's, there's only so many places to go,... and I have no idea where all the hotties are hiding ? Maybe Brisbane is the go on the weekends.

Welcome to the coast infamous :D You'll get over missing Sydney before long, I moved to GC in '03 and it was weird at first but suprisingly easy to settle in because practically everyone is from other states :ermm:

R33, glad you had fun - its a great place to be !

Gold coast chicks are a hell of alot more decent then brissy girls.(sorry but its true :ermm:) Depending on your age really depends on which clubs you wanna head out too.

But brissy clubs are hell of alot better then gold coast haha.

But brissy clubs are hell of alot better then gold coast haha.

the goldcoast clubs are starting to pickup their act though.

the bedroom, drinks, cocktails & platinum nightclubs are some of the better ones on the coast.

but when it comes clubbing in brisbane... they valley is the best place to go - family, met, planet, birdies, etc.

i moved here in 04 and i didnt just move state i moved country! u will settle in and meet some pretty cool people on the coast. i couldnt believe the cars when i got here first and as soon as i stepped out of bris airport i fell in love with skylines cos id never seen a skyline in real life before and since then ive seen so many crazy cars!

got over surfers AGES ago, id rather go to a pub or rsl now, but thats prob cos im not searching for tail, i have my women.

yea i enjoyed it heaps man. il never wash those jocks again!!! :laughing-smiley-014: :)

maybe you could frame those Y fronts, sign 'em and see what you get for it on ebay? a genuine jock soiling from riding in a 400 KW 300ZX is gotta be worth something right?

    • You will now be able to lift the parcel shelf trim enough to get to the shock cover bolts; if you need to full remove the parcel shelf trim for some reason you also remove the escutcheons around the rear seat release and you will have to unplug the high stop light wiring from the boot. Next up is removal of the bracket; 6 nuts and a bolt Good news, you've finally got to the strut top! Remove the dust cover and the 3 shock mount nuts (perhaps leave 1 on lightly for now....) Same on the other side, but easier now you've done it all before
    • OK, so a bunch of trim needs to come off to get to the rear shock top mounts. Once the seat is out of the way, the plastic trim needs to come off. Remove 2 clips at the top then slide the trim towards the centre of the car to clear the lower clip Next you need to be able to lift the parcel shelf, which means you need to remove the mid dark trim around the door, and then the upper light trim above the parcel shelf. The mid trim has a clip in the middle to remove first, then lift the lowest trim off the top of the mid trim (unclips). At the top there is a hidden clip on the inner side to release first by pulling inwards, then the main clip releases by pulling the top towards the front of the car. The door seal comes off with the trim, just put them aside. The the lighter upper trim, this is easy to break to top clips so take it carefully. There is a hidden clip towards the bottom and another in the middle to release first by pulling inwards. Once they are out, there are 3 clips along the rear windscreen side of the panel that are hard to get under. This is what the rear of the panel looks like to assist:
    • Yes. Autos typically work from the speed sensor on the pinion shaft of the diff. I also think that even if you have a proper speed sensor for the bog manual in the manual box, that the signal it outputs is not compatible with the auto dash anyway. You should consult that manual (the book, not the gearbox).
    • And I just realised that that advice is slightly nonsensical for a GTR, because you need 2 of them. But it is otherwise true.
    • Having had a reasonable look at the car, I'll be able to remove the (one time) rams and retract the hinge (they are held in the down location by a tiny (m3?) sacrificial screw) which will get it physically back in shape. From there if you remove the rams you need a resistor to turn off the airbag light (as Mark said, there are plug in kits and I might go that way because its reversible). And...per all the threads on here, even if you have the resistors to turn off the airbag light, the bonnet light will stay on as it writes to the airbag computer history - that is either replace the airbag controller, reprogam the EPROM (if I can work out how), or remove the globe from the dash. Having seen how sensitive this system is, if I had my time over I'd pre-emptively remove the rams, even on a road car, because this is all a very unnecessary pain in the arse. Reminds me, time to go and have a look at the Fuga too....
