hmm....another venue then? garage cafe does look ok though...

i am definitely in..regardless of location - keen on meeting u guys...hopefully, i am not the only guy with a v35 sedan on the day....

Hey Rianto, good on you for ringing around to find out at Garage Cafe. You know, just now I've realised why you said I was getting trigger happy a few posts ago, I didn't even realise that I had posted the same post twice until now, hahaha

So how about we meet at Albert Park instead? Around the pits area, there is lots of room there and hassle free parking!!! Are we alright with this or any other suggestions?

Also if you guys still wanna head down to garage cafe after that meet, it's recommended to book prior to that, as if it's more than 8 ppl it's best to book otherwise the limited 15 car space is 1st come 1st serve basis...

Garage Cafe & Bar

221 Berkeley St. Carlton

Albert Park per the rectangular parking is fine.....what time on Sat 25/7? I'll be there, but must be minimum of 4 forum members or it's not worthwhile for me to drive all the way there....

I'm interested to meet up with you guys too but unable to comfirm till later in the week ... and yes if I'm there you wouldn't be the only sedan :P

Yeah that's right Rianto, the rectangular car park is the one at the pits for the formula 1 when the race is on at Albert Park.

Great, we can meet there at the same time as specified before? 2:30pm!!!!

Time can always be changed so that we can suit as many of us as we can.

So....confirmed on Sat 25/7/09 at 2:30pm Albert Park (Rectangular Section carpar) for:

1. Me - siu_loong_bao

2. MILLOS

3. BenzLe

Maybe's:

1. Nissan_Rules

2. rs73

Anyone else? There's gotta be more Melb V35 owners out there...Gosh!

Updated list below. Definitely worth a go this Saturday.

I don't really have a good camera, just a small Olympus digital camera.

I'm not sure how long we'll stick around for.....we'll just see how it goes, it will be our first try....we will have to do another one so that the guys/girls that cannot come this Saturday because of work or other commitments can make it.

is this a guys meet or any of your partners coming as well?

... else I'll just drop off wifey in the city for her shopping or something :P

Edited by nissan rules

Mmm I was thinking that myself.

There is not much for them to do there other than admire our cars :P (I don't think they'll be interested in that though) so I was thinking not to bring my partner along.

If you guys will bring your respective partners then I might bring mine also.....Rianto, will you bring your wife and the new bub??? Imagine that, his first skyline meet, only a few days old. :D

    • My thinking is that if the O2 sensor is shot then your entire above described experience is pure placebo.
    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol  
    • -10 is plenty for running to an oil cooler. When you look at oil feeds, like power steering feeds, they're much smaller, and then just a larger hose size to move volume in less pressure. No need for -12. Even on the race cars, like Duncans, and endurance cars, most of them are all running -10 and everything works perfectly fine, temps are under control, and there's no restrictions.
    • Update: O2 sensor in my downpipe turned out to be faulty when I plugged in to the Haltech software. Was getting a "open circuit" warning. Tons of carbon buildup on it, probably from when I was running rich for a while before getting it corrected. Replaced with new unit and test drove again. The shuffle still happens, albeit far less now. I am not able to replicate it as reliably and it no longer happens at the same RPM levels as before. The only time I was able to hear it was in 5th going uphill and another time in 5th where there was no noticeable incline but applying more throttle first sped it up and then cleared it. Then once in 4th when I slightly lifted the throttle going over a bump but cleared right after. My understanding is that with the O2 sensor out, the ECU relies entirely on the MAP tune and isn't able to make its small adjustments based on the sensors reading. All in all, a big improvement, though not the silver bullet. Will try validating the actuators are set up correctly, and potentially setting up shop time to tune the boost controller on closed loop rather than the open loop it is set to now. Think if it's set up on closed loop to take the O2 reading, that should deal with these last bits. Will try to update again as I go.
