Hey Guys,

I'm new here and this will be my first post biggrin.gif

Finding this page has just made my day. I got my G35 sedan about 8 months ago, She is 2004.5 CVT-8 pearl, premium with black leather and sunroof sun roof and everyday I see her I get all happy. I'm sure a lot of you still do too.

What really makes me excited is this cruise I hear of. It would be awesome to see other Perth peoples cars and what they had done to them. Any who count me in for the WA list too.biggrin.gif

I will have pics uploaded soon but its dark now and I don't have many photos of her here with me.

I look forward to many chats in these forums with you all.thanks.gif

Hi mate, welcome to SAU and the WA V-series community.

Thank you for taking interest in our cruises & events. These had been happening regularly for nearly over a year now and all had be very joyful events for me and fellow V-series owners. Please refer to relevant threads on V-Series section for more information and photos about them. We are also on Facebook if you like to follow our events from there.

I will be more than happy to organize another cruise/meet-and-greet event depending on interests in the next month or so, as I am leaving for Brisbane for work soon and sadly, selling my V35 at the moment. After that, Steve (CRISP 35) and Fuad (Grrrr) will be helping our fellow V-series owners with the WA events.

Hope to see you at one of our event in the future.

HEY VICTOR,Long time mate hows things ive been away for awhile,keep me in mind for next cruise if i can make it i will

Take care mate Kurt

Hey Kurt, Long time! You disappeared. :P

I am good thanks. How's everything with you and your V35? Hope you got everything sorted out with that accident with your other car few months back.

I am actually relocating to Brisbane for good end of July, and selling my V35 already as I am taking my other two cars instead. If I can organise something before that, I will let you know.

Keep in touch, Kurt. Hopefully see you before I fly out. :)

Hey guys,

I'm coming down to perth friday for the weekend so keep an eye out for me. :thumbsup:

i'm helping out at a 4x4 show at the Burrswood dome.

Hey Paul, you bringing your V35?

Let's catch up on weekends if you have time. I don't know when I will see you guys again after leaving Perth.

Hi guys i was going to add a new topic but stumbled on this one.

I will be moving back to WA ( around rockingham) once i get a job sorted out over there and ill be bringin the V with me. Cant bare to part with it :)

So i guess u can add me to the numbers.

Do u guys get together much. Would love to get involved.

Adam.

Hi Adam, great to hear you are moving back to WA and bringing over the V.

I believe WA had been quite active for the last year. Richard (xtc) organized the first WA VQ-series cruise back in 2009, up until cruise no.5 in 2010. Then, I organized cruise no.6 in 2011, together with WA Meet-and-great events no.1 and 2. There are relevent threads in V-series.

I am relocating to Brisbane next month for work. But I am hoping the WA VQ-series scene to keep going and I am sure there are enough active owners on and off SAU that will participate when the next event comes around. :)

Any new WA V35 owners post up and say hi.

Let us know if your keen for another cruise? :cheers:

Big time thread revival, Paul! How's it going at Gero?

I still miss the WA V series scene. I've been away too long now. Hoping someone bring the scene back this year!

    • So I mentioned the apprentice, @LachyK helped take the bonnet off. We just undid the nuts on the hinges and unclipped the gas struts, then pulled the bonnet back a little as the front was catching on the front bar.  I had a good look at everything today and have removed the rams, repaired/reset the hinges and bolted it back together like it never happened. I'll do a separate write up on the repair, and I also removed the poppers from the Fuga today too to save grief down the road.....as said above it is at least $5k to repair retail. I'm also happier about my ability to prepare a race car, and less happy about Nis-nault's engineering (I can hear @GTSBoy sAfrican Americaning) because the top hose of the radiator didn't slip off.......it snapped clean off. By practice I put the hose clamp hard up against the flare on a neck to make it least likely to ever move (thanks @Neil!). I guess that puts a little more pressure on the end of the pipe as it is further away from the rad, but still, that is pretty shit. I've put it back on for now as there was a fair bit of neck still there, but obviously there is no lip on the neck any more so I don't think I'll track it again until I have a new rad. Speaking of which....more research required. It looks like Koyo makes a standard size radiator in ally which I'll grab in the meantime, but I really want something thicker so might have to go custom in the medium term (ouch) Coolant still needs a refill and I have the pressure tester on it over night, but other than a wash down of the engine bay it seems alright. And @MBS206 noted something noisy on the front of the engine and I think I agree....time for a new accessory belt and tensioners I think.
    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
    • What are we supposed to be seeing in the photo of the steering angle sensor? The outer housing doesn't turn, right? All the action is on the inside. The real test here is whether or not your car has had the steering put back together by a butcher. When the steering is centred (and we're not caring about the wheel too much here, we're talking about the front wheels, parallel, facing front) then you should have an absolutely even number of turns from centre to left lock and centre to right lock. If there is any difference at all then perhaps the thing has been put back together wrongly, either the steering wheel put on one spline (or more!) off, and the alignment bodged to straighteb the wheel, or the opposite where something silly was done underneath and the wheel put back on crooked to compensate. Nut there isn't actually much evidence that you have such a problem anyway. It is something you can easily measure and test for to find out though. My money is still on the HICAS CU not driving the PS solenoid with the proper PWM signal required to lighten the load at lower speed. If it were me, I would be putting either a multimeter or oscilloscope onto the solenoid terminals and taking it for a drive, looking for the voltage to change. The PWM signal is 0v, 12V, 0V, 12v with ...obviously...modulated pulse width. You should see that as an average voltage somewhere between 0V and 12V, and it should vary with speed. An handheld oscilloscope would be the better tool for this, because they are definitely good enough but there's no telling if any cheap shit multimeter that people have lying around are good enough. You can also directly interfere with the solenoid. If you wire up a little voltage divider with variable resistor on it, and hook the PS solenoid direct to 12V through that, you can manually adjust the voltage to the solenoid and you should be able to make it go ligheter and heavier. If you cannot, then the problem is either the solenoid itself dead, or your description of the steering being "tight" (which I have just been assuming you mean "heavy") could be that you have a mechanical problem in the steering and there is heaps of resistance to movement.
    • Little update  I have shimmed the solenoid on the rack today following Keep it Reets video on YouTube. However my steering is still tight. I have this showing on Nisscan, my steering angle sensor was the closest to 0 degrees (I could get it to 0 degrees by small little tweaks, but the angle was way off centre? I can't figure this out for the life of me. I get no faults through Nisscan. 
    • The BES920 is like the Toyota Camrys of coffee machines. E61 group head is cool, however the time requirements for home use makes it less desirable. The Toyota Camry coffee machine runs twin boilers and also PID temp control, some say it produces coffees as good as an E61 group head machine.
