my wife is 'grounded' at home anyway with the baby till at least another 2 weeks... (the asian 1 full moon confinement thing)

by the way I didn't call or make any reservation at garage cafe as I assume this is just a greet & meet at 2:30pm?

Yeah, greet and meet...and to freeze our "balls" off....

Maybe the next meet, we can book at Garage Cafe...

There's many who have read this thread, but seems reluctant to come...This is a NOTE TO ALL, the more that come and meet, the more of a 'Force' we become and the more events can be arranged in future...

Rianto - you wife is Asian? Yes, I know the 1st month thingy ('cos I'm Asian too), the baby is supposed to be 1 yr old after the 1st month...

yeah, that's why I am 1 year older in my chinese / lunar year compared to my gregorian year...

although I can't still quite grasp 100% the concept since babies are average about 9 1/2 month in the belly plus 1 month since born that's not even 11 month, but considered 1 year old according to lunar calendar... oh well but that's the way it is for over thousands of year since they come up with lunar calendar system... maybe it's like golf handicap thing, they get free 3 month handicap before even conceived :D LOL

Thanks to all for coming...we had 7 members today!!! Not sure if you guys noticed, but there were a few drive-by on-lookers checking out the rims and cars...

V35 Coupes:

rs73 (Rianto)

MILLOS (Pablo)

BenzLe (Benny)

scorp (Sam)

pw350gt (Yun)

V35 Sedans:

Pics are available in Hi-res upon request. Please also PM me your contact numbers and email addresses, so I can add you on MSN.

I was happy with the turnout, considering there wasn't many interest!!! Hopefully, the next V35 VIC Meet will be greater by number and at a place where we weren't freezing our balls off....

There was a general consensus to have a baking day...NO! Not the cooking/baking, but baking headlights to remove the orange blinkers...Once I perfect it on my sedan (when I get some more $$$ to order my new headlights), I'll get something arranged...

Stuff discussed included:

Do's and don'ts

What was worth modifying (grounding kit, CAI, bulbs, HID)

Bose Stereos & Compliancing

Ricer stuff....

Personally, I liked MILLOS's deep dish rims and pw350gt's CF paddle shifts....Very ricer!!!

Nelson.

More pics from my camera....

2nd pic was experimental with one of the camera features - colour accent... so only red is shown...

it was freaking cold out there, quite windy but good turn out... i'm sure there's lots more V35 owners to join in the future....

Unique things to highlight from our meet:

Only 1 car has original orange indicator (mine)

Only 1 car has rear windscreen wiper/rear camera (siu loong bao's)

Only 1 coupe has original 18" rim

Only 1 car has rear aero spoiler

Only 1 car has sunroof (V35Sky's)

Only 1 car has factory weather shield on the window (V35 300GT)

Only 1 pair of badgless bootlid (yeah, I'm running out of idea)

Added: Probably the best of them all... 1 40th Anniversary coupe with cream interior/full leather was "downgraded" to regular premium with half suede leather/black interior. Sorry to the owner but I just can't help it... :rofl:

good to hear a good turn up at the vic v35 meet, wished i was there! maybe next time... just taken my car to the final inspection, will post some photos when i get it back monday!

congrats for showing our pride n joy.

Hey guys,

I had a great time meeting you all this afternoon, I think we had a magnificent turn out considering we only had 5 confirmed and 3 maybes.

The cars all looked great, it was good to meet you all.

I will attach some pictures of each of the cars that turned out, front and back of each of the seven cars, and one other!!!

Also discussed at the meet was the idea of doing a cruise next time, now that we have gotten the first meet and greet out of the way, we could probably be more comfortable with a cruise!!!

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
