Meh - that site says its doom and gloom.

The BOM (Bureau of Meteorology) says isolated showers/storms and 25. That is hardly heavy rain :P

IMO - nothing in it at all. I've been watching the weather closely, doesn't look bad to be honest.

And as you said, this is Melb. Could be raining on Flinders St and sunny down @ Docklands!

Counts as rego in my book - however trying to justify trade plates use probably would mean most owners of them would not bother.

If you're in the auto industry with trade plates it can always be written down as part of a promotion for your business :D

That said, who wants to rent my trade plates for the weekend? :P

Just spent a good few hours washing/waxing my car to the finest touch. Who says you can't make an R33 look good? Mirror shine baby. I want it to rain, that way you can see how much wax I put on lol.

do we need to hang around there the whole day? or can we come drop the car off go bouts our normal busniess and come back?

You are free to do whatever you like for the duration you car is there.

But god help you if you are not back before closing time - it'll end up being towed to the council impound or something :D

F***ing rain f*** off until the weekend atleast...it hasn't rained for days...weeks even...I've spent so much time on the car tonight and now the clouds open up. Seriously, get f***ed.

I went to a show organised by ET street forum, a guy turned up in a vette with trade plates, asked him if he ever got hasseled and he said he has driven it as a daily for 6 months with them on (screwed on) and never been pulled over.

Well the thing is a cop will be looking for an argument if he wants to bother with trade plates...think you'll find they turn a blind eye to it most of the time. I reported a guy who had been abusing trade plates, police said they'd follow up but 12 months later and he's still driving around with them on his personal weekend car, which is severely unroadworthy. It's only really at night time you'd ever get questioned for it IMO.

hahahahahaha will do

Where is the Skyline sedan class?

well there isn't a skyline coupe class Wayne-o!

And, there never has been :thumbsup:

Gotta draw then line of reasonability of how many classes vs expenditure for trophies etc etc.

Can't have a class for every single possible option, just won't work.

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
