Hey Dynamix, seen ya today turn from musgrave st onto high st...

I was in the gf's lancer but :worship:

GTR looks very tidy..

That might have been me buddy, probly going to work or something like that, what colour is your gt-r, so far i've only seen a gun metal one belonging to an old guy i had a chat with for about an hour at autobahn and a beautful white one with gold centre bbs lm rims..

Mine is white with carbon bonnet. I got no licence for another 5 weeks but it'll be going down to benaraby drags this friday night. You should come down. Always a healthy turnout of imports. Welcome to cruise down with us but we're leaving at 5pm so we make it for scrutineering.

Here's a pic of mine...

ISR33 used to belong to a guy called dwain.

there is a vid of him and tyler ripping a skid side by side.

Saw the GTR bud, its looking good.

The old guy is probably glen nelson. That car is maintained like no other ive ever seen. He polished the whole exhaust on a hoist. goes hard too. It had R33 GTR rims right?

Greeat looking gt-r NoFX, if you ever wanna get rid or some parts for it, give me a buzz, i'm always keen to get stuff for mine.. Thanks for the invite too but i'll have to pass, got the mother in law coming up for a week to stay with us.. maybe some other time!

Granthem, it was the one with r33 gtr rims alright, was one of the cleanest r32s/skylines i've ver seen.. seems like a nice bloke too!

Yeah cheers mate. Still thinking about offing the cf bonnet. See how it goes when i get my licence back. If it starts attracting attention again i might have to.

Glen's gtr is so tidy. Always see him driving around when we go down the beach...

Amazing how big the car scene is in rocky for such a small town.

  • 3 weeks later...

hey guys, just got back from up north was in rocky last night only for the 1 night, was down at the criterion drinking with my mate and was watching all the cars cruising round. also saw granthem's 34 parked down near hj's. my mate showed me it. very nice and clean looking. i like it. also saw some chicks driving a maroon r33 and a silver 33 cruising round aswell. and a white gsr lancer, that crazy looking pink civic with chromies, and a green crx with full kit looked like ex hot 4's car. anyway none of you probably would have seen my car wasnt driving it round much whilst i was there, started drinking instead.

Yeah there is a surprising amount of skylines in rocky. Especially R33's.

Shoulda stayed til Sunday as we're having a cruise down to yeppoon sunday lunchtime...

Dynamix if ya keen, meeting at BP at 1pm and leaving 1:15 to head down the beach. All welcome and I think we'll have a few nice cars heading down including Granthem's R34, a type x 180, possibly a supra, pulsar turbo and a few others...

yeah unfortunately i couldnt stay, i was down in gladstone for the week but only drove up to visit a mate in rocky for the day/night.

saw granthem's 34 parked down near hj's. my mate showed me it. very nice and clean looking. i like it.

Cheers. Its parked there cause i work in the building next to hungrys. Sucks cause food is so close all the time.

Hopefully we can pull a bigish number to the proper cruise

Not many of the thousands of skylines in rocky seem to be on here though?

Yeah which just goes to show that the reason they own skylines is to look rad and pik up da chix fuly sik bro lolz.

Next one is 11th May. Not sure if my car is going to make it sadly, since it seems the gearbox may be f'd along with the 4WD... Might be in there a bit longer than I hoped.

Nah not sure who they are but there is a billion 33's in rocky... Not bad for a population of 60,000 :P

Next benaraby is Friday 23rd May. Scrutineering is 5pm-7pm; racing 6pm-10pm.

I should hopefully be at this one in 4WD FINALLY!!!!! So yeah mate come down check it out. Costs about 50$ to race including ya insurance. Just need a helmet(adr approved), long sleeve shirt, long pants and covered in shoes. Hope to see you there :P

Yeah mate try come down. I should be there if all goes to plan.

If ya not doing anything on the 18th May (sun week), we're having a beach cruise from Rocky to Yeppoon. I think a couple of guys from gladstone are coming hopefully. You're welcome to come along.

Here's my ride, had it since December 2006, put about 7000 kms on it in this time, including the trip from Townsville, did come from Mt Isa though. Pretty much came how is, except the genuine GTR wing, and the LED taillights so far, just been repairing mainly. Haven't really driven it that much since August last year when the seatbelts gave way, then the stereo came out to do custom boxing, hasn't happened yet. Now the control arm is gone in the front drivers, got it replaced, this one was stuffed too. Now its just sitting in the yard cuz i need a new battery.

It's the only one with the LED lights in town atm, there is another white series 2 with the same front bar, and a standard kitted series 2 white with sunroof...but i had to have both, if it didn't have the sunroof i was not interested, was looking at 34's but the were 27'000+ at the time. So i bought this 33 GTS-T 40TH anniversary.

Maybe you'll c it out one day but atm i'll be in the cream VL Commy :P

yeh seen your car fueling up at shell mate. Your right not too many have chosen the LED rear lights in town, chris's silver SII does have them though.

You wanted a sunroom that bad hey? everyone ive spoken to who has ever owned one never wanted another one again lol

Hmm never seen that one before. Looks nice man. I like that front bar. If you got nothing else to do, come down to the beach this sunday. Leaving from Northside BP at 1:30pm (meeting at 1pm, leaving by 1:30)

    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.
