Hey guys

Just thought i post up, if people were interested in getting a decent amount SAU members to come out willowbank raceway and take there car down the strip (or just watch )

The suggestion was put forward by a fellow SAU member and i thought also it would be a good idea.

Laterly i have gone out to test and tune to watch and have been kinda bored with the lack of skylines, or interesting cars.

As i have seen the amount of Skylines increasing around the area, it would be good to see a heap of skylines head out and have fun.

I thought to give people some notice and put the date of the test and tune night for the 30th of April.

For details of whats required to take your car down the strip just click on the link http://www.willowbank-raceway.com.au/

It would be good to see a fair amount of skylines head out, and show other members of what you have/done.

Thanks

theres a good chance ill be able to go. it'll be my first run on the new engine. Is anyone from the southside meeting up to go down? Otherwise there's no difference between going down on yr date or any other test n tune

probably wont be much difference.

Only the fact that, hopefully there will be a few skylines on the 30th, and usually hardly any on any other date, which sucks paying 18 bucks to watch average cars go down.

Even the point of the events are for " testing" but ya know come on, bring out some interesting stuff.

It was more to see a few skylines at willowbank on the same night. But if anyone wanted to organise a cruise there, go for it.

But im only like 10 mins away from there. So, pointless for me really.

It could even turn out to be a cruise after it to Mt Cootha or somewhere of interest on a Wednesday, not sure if anyone would be interested in that but ya know could be suggested if theres a next time that something like this is organised

C'mon Miss niz, come for a run in the 34. I'ts heaps of fun, my car is only doing 14's so not that great. Still i loved it.

All the guys thinking of coming with huge power in their cars, COME ON DOWN. I would love to see really fast Skylines having a go. Would be great entertainment. Be nice to outnumber the Xr6 turbo's and SS commo's.

Hmm i might come out and give my 34 a go, just got turbo back zorst fitted, new ecu and tune going in wednesday :) so keen to see how she goes.

anyone organsing a north side meet up? for a mass skyline cruise down?

Edited by Silver_R34_GT-T

By the looks of it, probably is a good idea if we had two people to organise a northside cruise down and southside, if you guys were interested doing that. Then possibly meeting up at an area before where we can all cruise into willowbank together.

Off the top of my head, i am unaware of a suitable location to meet. I was thinking of Redbank Plaza Shopping Centre, but then we do have a couple of people that live closer to Willowbank then that, and would be travelling backwards. Then again depends on how many turn up and would attend the little cruise down.

But by the look of it theres a decent group of people coming along, and a few that are producing good numbers and new comers, so should be an interesting night.

Awesome!!

Be good to meet you too. Hope we get a few more.

Yeah no worries, im penciling it in now...

I just want to open the bike up, see how fast i can cross the 1/4 in (trap speed i mean)...

Im nervous of a gust of wind at 200 tho, I think it will be a true "test and tune" for me, test how confident I am after clicking into 3nd gear at 15,000rpm :)

whats in ur new engine... i mite head down... something diff on a wed nite... im on the sth side... where abouts r u?

fully built 25/30. Getting its final tune done on Monday. Expecting 500rwhp since i got over 400 in a run in tune but i dont think the time will be that good. Its not setup for drag racing but it'll still be fun anyway. Im at Mount Cotton

    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
    • Funny, but really not funny. Thank god (most) f the world has moved on since then
    • Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
