Hey Guys,

I had a great morning! Thanks to those that joined in and A HUGE thanks to Graham, Nick and the team at Fulcrum Capalaba.

For those that didn't attend, here's a quick summary;

** We were welcomed by the Nick and his Team, the BBQ was in full swing - Sausage Sizzle and cold drinks, what more could you ask for!!

** Graham then started his session - Not your boring 'class room' style presentation.

He got a number of OUR cars up on the hoist and then went to town!

We were all in, around and under the cars... look at this... check out that... etc. Full explanations, loads of free advice, etc.

With his 30+ years of experience, there wasn't a question that he couldn't answer!

Unfortunately I had to leave early :D but I think there were 6+ skylines up on the hoist. Every car had a diagnosis - with some more embarrassing than others (damn it, those cheep tyres!!)

another HUGE THANKS to the Fulcrum guys.

I didn't find the session to be a big 'sales pitch'. Please support them when and where you can!

I know Nick will do a great deal if anyone needs parts or service! - 07 3390 3900

** Keep a look out for the next Tech Session - well hope to have another one in approx 4 to 6 weeks.

Cheers

well done to the event execs and dan for setting it up. chris has summarised it all quite nicely and i won't say much more on it.

it was good to catch up with everyone and put a few names to faces.

ToMMah, never realised who you were :blush:

sorry i had to leave early, had to go to work.

how'd his head bruise turn out by the end of the session?!

i spoke with nick also and they will honour discounts for club members across any fulcrum outlet (just make sure you call nick first so he can organise it at the relevant outlet). just let him know you are a club member and show your card.

      I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.

      Ahhhh... If you were putting 12V to the led in there, that's likely made it very unhappy. Chances are how you put power, was 12V across an LED that's meant to only have about 20mA through it at peak, and a forward voltage of about 1.8 to 2.4 volts. That circuit is likely only a 3V3 circuit, and will have a resistor in series with the led too. That's my guesstimate on that light, without having touched one.

      Another vote for installing them and see how you go.  I mean, you already own them, why would you not fit them?

      I have had too many of those over the years, my cars have a toolkit or at minimum a cheapy multi tool thing because its too easy to be snookered by some stupid plastic clip that stops you checking the battery terminal isn't loose.

      Basically, if there is a part# on the nissan catalogue, it is a genuine part. There is a thing called "new old stock" which is stuff made years ago but never sold (or landfilled), but it is super hit and miss what you can buy. Other than some expensive Nismo stuff there is nothing new being made that suits these cars. The only time to be a little careful is (mostly in the US I think, but maybe Japan too), Nissan started rebranding some cheap crap maintenance parts like oil filters as "Pitworks"; stay away from them, if you are buying cheap just buy whatever the local car parts shop carries The three part numbers have an explanation on Amayama: 0V005 is auto, base style 0V015 is manual 0V505 is auto, hectic momo branded ones, maximum F&F points there!
