Did you end up entering the tour Snowman?

Yep sure did. Am looking forwards to being up there and concentrating on the festivities side of things!

:blink:

BTW - apparently a new Tarmac Rally was announced yesterday in W.A.

Targa South West. Sounds promising although slightly confusing. Its running under CAMS but to AASA Targa regs or something!? LOL

That's the thing about Buller - the weather is always going to be one end of the extremes.

But as for the event itself I'll give you a little tip.

Don't leave the road! It's a big drop....

:D

And definitely don't do a Heskin! LOL

One tip, clutch stabs! Oh, and DON'T bin it at the right hander on the concrete in the township.

Well I've put the thing up for sale so I figured I may as well try and have one more good time in it before it finds its way to a new happy home. :D

Well I use it as my daily right now and that's basically all I use it for. Generally if I want some fun I take the R34.

So I figured it's wasted in its current life. Plus I'm also coming to realise that with me doing all of these interstate rallies etc that I really should look at a tow car for the R34 rather than just driving it everywhere I go. So I've had to make the hard decision to let the R35 go unfortunately.

:D

      33 GTR Broken front wheel knuckle

      By R32 TT · Posted

      Just had this happen to me too.  R32 GTR.   Also broke "just before going out onto the track" - someone up there is looking out for us... Very scary since I was about to do a narrow street course with zero run-off and curbs everywhere. Many people on here upgrading to billet uprights and R35 bearings?   Or buying new OEM knuckles?  I am not keen to replace with another s/h 30 year old fatigued part.

      Coolant leak?

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Top off with distilled water and see what happens. If you keep losing coolant then you know to start looking.

      Quieter performance exhausts (or muffler add-on options)

      Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win?

      Quieter performance exhausts (or muffler add-on options)

      By f00stx · Posted

      So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?

      The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
