Gents,

I will be tackling the Reefton Spur (168 bends in 18km!) followed by the Black Spur this Sunday (2 October 2011) in my new V35 coupe for some 'spirited' driving. Aiming to start around 6:30 to 7am to avoid the traffic.

More than happy for any V35s to come along for the drive.

ChrisB, NissanRules, Alphamox? Any takers? We haven't had a cruise in ages!

Anyone keen on some spirited driving this coming Sunday morning ( 6 Nov)?

Just got new tyres fitted (Hankook S1 Evos) and keen to test them out.

Location?

Anyways, I wanna go for cruise down Beach Road and around St Kilda Beach tomorrow, anyone keen for a mini meet up?

Sorry, would love to but can't do Saturday (have to take the family to the beach).

As for location on Sunday, will probably be Warrandyte - Christmas Hills - either Toolangi Spur or Black Spur.

At this stage, at least 2 members of the Z club are keen as well.

Hello guys,

Just to let you know for all you guys in Victoria that tomorrow night, there will be a skyline meet at Pines Shopping Centre in Doncaster. For more information, goto the Victoria/Events section and enter the thread called "Apple Peel Comeback". I will be going tomorrow in my V35 sedan/maxima if all is well and hope that other V35's will tag along. It seems that I'm the only V35/V36 owner interested in this cruise at the moment so it will be good to see others out there to rally support :). It will be also good to catch up with the members who were in our last meet up to Dandenong and to Chris' place for a BBQ. Pm me or show an interest to the cruise in the thread.

Hello guys,

8igSky and I joined the Z-Club for their annual X-mas cruise last Sunday up to Mt Macedon and it was a blast. Total of 14 Zs, 2 V35s and 2 R35 GT-Rs were roaring up the Calder Freeway!

Seeing as the end of the year is coming and the weather is getting better, can't help but think that its time for the Vs in our midst to meet up for a chat and a cruise.

At this stage, the details are:

Date: Either Sat 17 Dec or Sun 18 Dec

Cruise Meet location: TBC - Depends on Cruise destination

Cruise times: 10am arrival. 10:30am departure.

Proposed cruise route details: TBC. Either Mt Dandy, the Spurs or Mt Donna Buang or perhaps all of the above!. PLEASE PM ME WITH ANY OTHER RECOMMENDATIONS.

Let me know if you guys are keen

Thanks!

Guys,

Thanks for all your responses. Looks like Sat 17th is looking to be the better date.

Hopefully we will get a few more oks in the next couple of days. Pls pass on the word to any fellow V35 owners that you know.

BTW, I've noted that GTCC is also organising a cruise to Mt Donna Buang on the following Sun 18th. (See the Vic Events section). Haven't been to a GTCC cruise before but I understand that it is for all car types.

If our V35 numbers are, say below five, one alternative is to tag along with them to make up the cruise numbers while still exchanging notes on our V35s. Or I'm equally happy if we do our own V35 meet on Saturday. Any thoughts? Interfooler/Dreadnought - Can you do the 18th as a alternative?

Cheers!

Heard about the GTCC one. Was thinking of attending that one (depending on my mate)

Again Push comes to shove, I'm able to do the 17th as well just need to depend on the time you wish to have a v35 one.

Only really have a house warming to attend, but not 100% confirmed.

If numbers are low on the 17th? can always have a drive to garage cafe? etc?

18th shouldn't be a problem for me and don't mind joining the GTCC guys.

Cool!

Thanks Mayo_85

Gkzlah, if you can make it on Sat 17th, we will have five cars.

Weather report shows it being cloudy with chance of rain in the arvo so I reckon we should make an early start.

Updated details below:

Date: Sat 17 Dec

Cruise Meet location: McDonalds - Corner of Springvale Road and Whitehorse Road

Cruise times: 8:30am arrival. 9:00am departure. (Mayo_85, hopefully not too early for you? Traffic will start to build up if we leave too late).

Proposed cruise route details: The Black Spur!

Guys,

The latest update to the weather report shows that Saturday will be rain free.

Cars attending so far:

1) Thinktea

2) Interfooler

3) Mayo_85

4) Gkzlah

5) Dreadnought

I will be meeting up with some of the z-club members tomorrow night and unless you have any objections, I will extend the invitation for any Zs or R35s to join us if they are keen.

Other Melbourne V35 owners reading this, put your name down and join us for some fun on Sat morning!

Nice one Think, thanks for organizing. If you're meeting the Z club on Friday I'd be pretty keen for that, too.

In terms of the 17th, getting up that early on a Saturday would probably kill a weaker man, but I will break my rules and set a weekend alarm :P

Allegedly I have a potential buyer looking at a car I'm selling around lunch time, but I'll wait and see if they confirm.

    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
