Off topic- Does it anyone else get slightly annoyed that other people in R32/33/34's don't acknowledge you as a Skyline driver? I usually wave to anyone in a Skyline but don't seem to receive it.

I have seen so many V's and R's around in the last week or so in Adelaide, whilst driving my 4 door V and I never get a wave back :angry:

Feeling a little invisable. Someone please spot me!!!!!!!! (I even had a very nice Black 2 door V35 drive past me yesterday whilst I was turning into On The Run at Plympton and they still didn't acknowledge my :action-smiley-069: )

Spotted a Black v35 coupe on Parramatta rd heading towards the city i was heading out of the city, a girl on her green P's was driving it :)

I thought our car was restricted for P platers here in Sydney. Ive seen a few p platers in G's.....i dunno why i waited to be on my full to get mine.

They're restricted, those people just run the risk of getting caught. I want one so bad!

Correct. Nissan Skyline V35 350GT is on the "restricted list" in NSW. However, in QLD there are no records at all of them being restricted. But they are actually illegal for every P plater due to the power to weight ratio. I have had my V for 5 months on my Green P's been pulled over once for a RBT other than that i drive sensibly and have no troubles.

I don't think they are illegal in Qld actually.. I checked it out a little while back.. the rules are weird.. Qld has the normal 'No V8' and 'No turbo' rules, but for others, the limit is 210kW. And since the 350GT produces 206KW, it isn't restricted.

However, if you own a restricted vehicle and want to apply for an exception to allow you to drive it on your 'P', then one of the requirements for the exception is a maximum of 125KW/tonne, which the 350GT doesn't pass..

So if they ever do decide to ban it.. you have no chance of getting an exception..

Yes that's what i wrote, there are no records at all of the car being illegal in QLD. I have a mate that has the same car as me and thrashes it has lost his lisense for 12 months and has countless speeding fines and everything but has never been told the car is illegal for him. So basically i'm keeping it on the low-down and keeping out of trouble and trying not to draw attention to myself incase i do meet an educated police officer who knows that the car is illegal for me.

no response to a flash of the lights either...

      I couldn't agree more. As an owner of a built high HP skyline, I'd be a hypocrite to not buy a Hummer for the reasons you listed though haha.

      Stagea boot lid probs

      By soviet_merlin · Posted

      Is this the one? https://jpjdm.com/shop/index.php?id_product=2192&rewrite=nissan-stagea-c34-rear-boot-actuator-assembly-90550-0v000 Might be worth having a look at yahoo japan as well. Though it seems a bit odd. If the motor works itself, other than being noisy, then wouldn't it be more likely that it's an electrical issue somewhere else? And it being noisy does not seem as surprising if it has been chugging away for months

      Stagea boot lid probs

      By BCs300z · Posted

      I know this thread is quite old, but I found it, it helped me, but I also wanted to add my experience and troubleshooting finds to the chat for others. I have not been able to open the rear hatch of my 97 Stagea for several months. Figured it had just really sealed itself up over the winter and I would just get to it eventually. Well that day was yesterday. Some time ago, I noticed my battery was going flat all the time. It was frustrating. Then one quiet night in the garage, I could hear and ever so slight humming / grinding noise coming from the back of the car. It was like a really quiet popping sound or something like sand in a very low speed blender. I took off the panels in the back and noticed the noise coming from the auto close motor, so I unplugged it and the noise stopped. And the auto close was disabled. Well, fast forward to yesterday, I tried all the tricks with power and fuse and lock and unlock and I still could open the damn hatch. So I took off the panels from the inside and found the auto lock had engaged and was stuck in close position. When plugging and unplugging the fuse, I could hear the relay clicking. So I plugged the autoclose motor back in, and the damn thing let go. And immediately started making that grinding sound again. This time, instead of just unplugging the motor, I pulled the fuse, thus depowering the relay entirely. I don't have the autoclose feature now, but at least I can open the boot and not have my battery being sucked dead all the time. Not sure what caused the motor to latch when it was unplugged from the system, but I am pretty sure it won't cause any more problems now.  If anyone has a lead on a new motor, please let me know. It's a cool feature that I would like to get back.  Hope this helps.
