Actually I was... but I wasn't on Lonsdale St. I was on Lygon & drove down Russell St @ 9ish. Anyway, you would know me by the number plates!

What is Cobalt blue??? I'm guessing you meant Athens Blue, which is a 2005+ colour?

I'm at work tomorrow for 12 hrs, so no go there for me... I'll wave from work on the highway.

As for tomorrow, I wouldn't bother, it is going to be 30 degrees and that means to many tourists, esecially Melbournites... ooopps no disrespect!

I like to keep away from the Coast on really warm days too, unless I can be down to Lorne (+) and home by Midday.

Hey Melbourne owners how you doing?

Just picked up my V35 yesterday (now watching Champions League final hence I'm writing at this time), the car will be taken to Vic Roads this coming Monday for registration.

So how about a meet/cruise sometime soon, good chance to meet all Melbourne owners. I've seen a few around but definitely not many. Let me know any interest.

YESSSSS, the car is officially registered in Victoria now, only one little issue VicRoads picked up, the VIN number wasn't stamped on the chassis of the car, it was just a plaque bolted onto the chassis and apparently that is not good enough anymore.

So just had to drive 3kms up Lygon street to the nearest mechanic to get the VIN number stamped, and 30 minutes (I had to wait) and $20 later I was back at VicRoads getting the registration papers.

Drove it to work today and loved it, what was funny is that one of the mechanics at the place I went to asked me if it was a 350z, hahaha. (I've badged the car so he could not tell it was a skyline)

Ready for a mini meet/little cruise when "siu loong bao" gets his car and everyone is ready!!!

    • A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.
    • The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?
    • So sadly the fuel pump etc was not it. The pump and filter is new and it is still cutting around 4000 rpm. A read something about ABS/TCS (engine is from stagea and ECU too so no TCS) and i dont know for 100% that my car has ABS. It has ABS "cube" in engine bay but i dont think it works(or at least from my braking experience). Can be something like that?  I will be driving the car next week to Nistune tuner to properly see what is wrong...  
    • the Tomei LSD fluid with lsd kit. frustrated that it was shaking the car to crap and affecting everything else negatively, I pulled the diff last night, and removed the lsd carrier, could not find anything wrong, however it seem to be 100 locked up acceleration, and deacceleration, wondering if they sent me a 2 way not a 1.5??  either way I installed the stock open carrier back in place. test drove everything smooth as butter again. no shake, shutter, random, what felt like clutch slip and grab or drive shaft play, etc. something differently wrong in side the lsd. I might bother taking it apart (if possible) to figure out what's going on inside this carrier, as bought too long ago to return.  only draw back is its back to a one wheel wonder.
