yeah look, i'm in for cruises and dinner meets, but if this is gonna turn out to be some skid runs and "check me out i'm a touge superstar" event, then count me out. Besides, my gearbox is fucked for now, so I can't be goin up mountians.

Funky is right guys.

What my initial plans was/is to have an initial meet up at one location for drinks or dinner just to guage who would be interested for a casual mid-week meet. Now, there is no reason we can't all go for a cruise somewhere afterwards.

In terms of double meeting points, great idea....but still this is just a casual thing so far, so if anyone is keen, have a look at the following details and reply in here if you are available or not :)

Wednesday Night Meet #1 Details:

Place: Pig 'n Whistle Indooroopilly (Indro Shoppingtown).

Corner of Station and Musgrave Road.

Time: 7.30pm in the Outdoor Bar (Street side of the pub, near the ATM's and foodcourt entrance).

When: Wednesday 10th September.

By 7.30 peak hour is well and truly over which is typically quieter on a Wednesday anyway. This is a social event that will hopefully grow to be a fortnightly meet and continue to see more people attend each time it is held! :down: Everyone is welcome along with partners and friends, just bring your friendly attitude.

There is obviously plenty of parking, and at 7.30 the Musgrave Road side of Indro Shoppingtown will have plenty of parks for the Skylines to line up next to each other which is perfectly lit and in sight of their owners, even while dining in the restaurant :(

....and please, anyone who will be attending, be on your best behavior when arriving and leaving the complex....so keep any spirited driving at bay.

Cheers,

Sambo.

yeah would be keen to meet and greet a few skyline owners and just chew the fat. live in reddy so not to far go. should hopefully be getting me car back from the tuners this week or next week. but you count me in for future meets. a suggestion for mountain cruisers. maleny and mont ville are a nice cruise on the weekends as well.

Alright guys, I've compiled a list as accurate to your responses as I can to determine who is coming, who isn't and who might be....let me know underneath whats happening anyway :wub:

So who has a spare seat if we go for a cruise up to mt coot tha afterwards? :P

Edited by Sambo33gtst

Lol well looks like both funky and myself will be someone's bitch on the night :P

Looking forward to it....the summit cafe has rad ice cream too, definately hitting that sh!t up when we get there lol

Hey, i know this says "mid-week meet ups" but was wondering if there was anything going on this weekend? ill be in Brisbane area staying round indropilly(sp?) friday through to sunday. Would be great to meet some more skyline people. If not i guess ill just keep a eye out for all of you.

Cheers,

Allara xx

I havent organised anything on the weekend as such....maybe check out the events forum section closer to the weekend, or there might be a few people who read this and want to organise something :D maybe make a new thread to get some interest going...

I know ill be busy on the weekend so unfortunately I won't be doing anything :P

    • The car/ECU will have all the sensor that it needs and expect to have. I think i do not have to explain to you how the Link is way better specialy if you have swapped engine   I just do not want to deal with any "problems" cuz i have only Nistune which i learned is not that great and in my case cant even deal with that speed problem (Link can) And of course it will be way more easier to tune and diagnose and safe. And for the ECU/speed problem...i dont know.
    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
