i went clubbing after the meet on chaps didnt see ne skylines, pretty quiet that nite. i didnt do a ful lap, just enough to find parking.

man i love 18yr high school girls, no matter how old i get they always stay the same :)

hehe - I was on Chaps too. Oddly i didn't see your car either, actually i didn't see any R34s at all at Chaps :ermm: I saw 1 silver '33 GT-R and 2 other '33s

haha that was me man. met up with gazal in the city randomly and thought we might do get a ber or two. was a good night cheers TO AP and DEZZ for organising an awesome meet.

Yeah thanks for the beer mate! had a good night tahnks to AP and DEZZ.. when is the next one? :ermm:

Good turnout considering the weather. It was good to meet everyone that cruised from Narre to the east pre meet. Thanks Slik_LA for helping organise. It was good to meet everyone although i've forgotten names already but more meets will help with that. I got lost for a while on the way to AP with a few other lines but looking forward to the next one. What's this i hear of another one in 4 weeks? Wasn't at AP for very long.

Looked like an awesome night. I was feeling shithouse though. I had completely forgot about the meet than went down to Harvey Norman to pickup a network card and there was 20+ skylines. Said hello to a few but didnt hang around. Starting to feel a bit better now, but after a week off work it would suck if I went out and got worse.

Glad you all had a blast.

Was that GTR @ the west meet?

If so its Lee's, GTR94 here on the forum, long time lurker he is :)

Hey Ash has been a long time, an yeah it was GTR 94 there but it now has T51R number plates on it, as you can see why. big apologies couldnt hang round long had to work sat so couldnt stay out late, now the car is going gonna really try get to heaps of events, and start hanging out with you guys.

Must say was a great night, great turn out, and did meet many nice ppl. big thanks to SAU committee

take care

Enjoyed the cruise! good to see so many skylines. Did end up following some skylines home instead of to the pizza shop though. lol. Still had a great night though.

Forty-odd cars is more than enough, and considering the amount of people that signed up to the club makes it a huge success, despite if you think the westie numbers are weak in your opinion. I'd love to see you organise something better, especially considering the fact that it looked like it was going to rain all night.

How narrow-minded and arrogant you make out is astounding.

DW about R34NRG he always has something negative to say about everything! :D

EAST? WEST? Who cares! It was a good meet with a great turnout! I made new friends =] :)

Congratulations to Michael, Paul and Ash!

:D

Andru, perhaps you'd like to take into account the amount of members on here that are from the east, compared to the west, and how many of those have attended east meets in the past, so know plenty of people already and took this as another chance to meet up with them.

It wasn't a competition or a fight, so stop acting like a child.

all i said was i expected more cars.......maybe expected is the wrong word? i assumed?

i just thought it be bigger thats all. im not crying that it wasnt or anything.

i think everyone just needs to stop being girls and not take everything i say so seriously......damn......

since wen did anyone care wat i said anyway lol

ill say it again though, awsome meet cant wait for the next one.

btw karla maybe next time u can keep your toilet demands to yourself instead of reporting it to the public hahahhaha, you crack me up

LOLLL mannn come onnnnnnnn. stop crying about everything i freakn say man

all i said was that i expected more cars thats all. is that such a crime?

shit..........i didnt realise i hurt everyones feeelings

You didn't hurt everyones feelings, I think it's more so your "Holier than thou" attitude that you have been displaying around the place lately.

Everyone else who attended the cruise knew that it was a big turnout.

    • I thought I'd do a write up on an auto transmission fluid change for a the nissan 7 speed Automatic. At some stage the genius engineers decided that the fluid in the trans was "for the life of the transmission", (which seems kind of self supporting to me) and removed the dip stick and fill tube (funnily enough there is still a casting for it). Anyway, for this job you do need 2 specialist tools in addition to regular hand tools, jack and good chassis stands. You need a way to pump fluid up to the transmission; I got one of these but there are plenty of other options: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364584087070 Don't trust the generic listing though, it does not come with the required adapter for the Nissan 7 Speed. You need one of these, can't do the job without it: https://navarapart.com.au/product/genuine-nissan-patrol-y62-d23-np300-navara-re7-dipstick-fill-connector1 You need a heap of compatible transmission oil. Could be Nissan, could be anything else rated for Nissan Matic S. You need at least 10 litres, I had 15 to give it a better flush... Also, you need some biiig oil catch trays, at least one of these, or bigger if possible (volume was fine, size was very marginal): https://autobarn.com.au/ab/Autobarn-Category/Tools-%26-Garage/Specialty-Tools/Oil-Service/Garage-Tough-Oil-Drain-Pan-Black-16L---GT1068/p/TO03191 Finally, a measuring jug is very useful if your pump does not have volumes marked on it, I got a 6l one: https://www.repco.com.au/oils-fluids/fluid-accessories/measuring-jugs/penrite-measuring-jug-6l-pmj006/p/A5322648 Oh, and gloves.....this stuff is horrible (not as bad as diff oil, but getting there) ....First, jack up your car.....
    • So I mentioned the apprentice, @LachyK helped take the bonnet off. We just undid the nuts on the hinges and unclipped the gas struts, then pulled the bonnet back a little as the front was catching on the front bar.  I had a good look at everything today and have removed the rams, repaired/reset the hinges and bolted it back together like it never happened. I'll do a separate write up on the repair, and I also removed the poppers from the Fuga today too to save grief down the road.....as said above it is at least $5k to repair retail. I'm also happier about my ability to prepare a race car, and less happy about Nis-nault's engineering (I can hear @GTSBoy sAfrican Americaning) because the top hose of the radiator didn't slip off.......it snapped clean off. By practice I put the hose clamp hard up against the flare on a neck to make it least likely to ever move (thanks @Neil!). I guess that puts a little more pressure on the end of the pipe as it is further away from the rad, but still, that is pretty shit. I've put it back on for now as there was a fair bit of neck still there, but obviously there is no lip on the neck any more so I don't think I'll track it again until I have a new rad. Speaking of which....more research required. It looks like Koyo makes a standard size radiator in ally which I'll grab in the meantime, but I really want something thicker so might have to go custom in the medium term (ouch) Coolant still needs a refill and I have the pressure tester on it over night, but other than a wash down of the engine bay it seems alright. And @MBS206 noted something noisy on the front of the engine and I think I agree....time for a new accessory belt and tensioners I think.
    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
    • What are we supposed to be seeing in the photo of the steering angle sensor? The outer housing doesn't turn, right? All the action is on the inside. The real test here is whether or not your car has had the steering put back together by a butcher. When the steering is centred (and we're not caring about the wheel too much here, we're talking about the front wheels, parallel, facing front) then you should have an absolutely even number of turns from centre to left lock and centre to right lock. If there is any difference at all then perhaps the thing has been put back together wrongly, either the steering wheel put on one spline (or more!) off, and the alignment bodged to straighteb the wheel, or the opposite where something silly was done underneath and the wheel put back on crooked to compensate. Nut there isn't actually much evidence that you have such a problem anyway. It is something you can easily measure and test for to find out though. My money is still on the HICAS CU not driving the PS solenoid with the proper PWM signal required to lighten the load at lower speed. If it were me, I would be putting either a multimeter or oscilloscope onto the solenoid terminals and taking it for a drive, looking for the voltage to change. The PWM signal is 0v, 12V, 0V, 12v with ...obviously...modulated pulse width. You should see that as an average voltage somewhere between 0V and 12V, and it should vary with speed. An handheld oscilloscope would be the better tool for this, because they are definitely good enough but there's no telling if any cheap shit multimeter that people have lying around are good enough. You can also directly interfere with the solenoid. If you wire up a little voltage divider with variable resistor on it, and hook the PS solenoid direct to 12V through that, you can manually adjust the voltage to the solenoid and you should be able to make it go ligheter and heavier. If you cannot, then the problem is either the solenoid itself dead, or your description of the steering being "tight" (which I have just been assuming you mean "heavy") could be that you have a mechanical problem in the steering and there is heaps of resistance to movement.
    • Little update  I have shimmed the solenoid on the rack today following Keep it Reets video on YouTube. However my steering is still tight. I have this showing on Nisscan, my steering angle sensor was the closest to 0 degrees (I could get it to 0 degrees by small little tweaks, but the angle was way off centre? I can't figure this out for the life of me. I get no faults through Nisscan.
