Hey everyone, I couldn't find a welcome yourself thread so I decided to make one of my own.

My name's Charlie and on Saturday I picked up my R34 GT-T. The R33 has been my dream car since I was 12 so I'm pretty please with myself to have trumped it with a 34 :thumbsup:

The car is stock apart from muffler and BOV, 42,000 k's, just imported by Kamikaze Motors in Nunawading. (great place btw)

Looking forward to taking it out on some drive meets and catching up with some of you! :D

Ciao!

Also dislike your comment about trumping!

But welcome to SAU, and may I say nice bike.

Late notice for you, but you should come along to SAU Vic's general meeting tomorrow night (Tuesday). Details are posted in this forum section. It's a great way to meet like-minded Skyline enthusiasts and find out about future official cruises / meetings held by the club. There are also plenty of unofficial cruises / meets held by the friendly folk who frequent the Victorian section of SAU.

:thumbsup:

Next up you can trump the 34 with a 32...

Hey Birds I just signed up for SAU-Vic, who do I kick to get that glorious little Vic Club Member badge on my account?

Hey Paul. How long ago did you sign up / pay? Have you received your membership information in the mail? Sometimes it can take 2-3 weeks for this stuff to arrive (we often have a small backlog of memberships to process) along with assignment of the forum tag and members section access. I'll give the boys a little kick for you :thumbsup:

I paid quite some time ago, got my stickers and stuff last friday.. first time I'm using a Lanyard for my work ID.. you should all be thankful as I've been asked three times about it, free advertising woo!

..but still cant see the other forums to lurk yet.

Also, hi new forum person, and I agree with the trumping comment :thumbsup:

Patience padwans, it does say during the membership application that everything can take up to 15 (?) business days...which translates to about 3 complete weeks. Ash relegates the forum access / tags and the guy is always buttoned down with work so it'll all happen in due time. You haven't been forgotten about :thumbsup:

Kinkstaah & paulR32gtr – (27th Nov) you submitted 9 business days ago.

pplatr34 – you submitted online on the 8th... a whopping 4 business days ago.

The form you filled out quite clearly states 15 working days.

It is clearly stated for a reason guys, we need time to reconcile & process applications. Things dont just 'magically' happen unfortunately.

A bit of patience would be nice, your applications will be processed within the 15 business days.

Thanks

Ash

Charli - Welcome :thumbsup:

Never said I had been forgotten about :thumbsup: I was happy to throw money at the site because I know all of this stuff isnt magically free.

I found it interesting I got the stuff in the mail before the access appeared on the forum.. thats all..but happy to contribute even if no stickers arrived or no forum access ever appeared, due to the info on the boards that I am sure Charli will make good use of!

I'm also suprised noone's done the whole "IT'S A GIRL!" yet.

haha thanks for the welcome all... and the trumping comment was only in my own terms... I have a major soft spot for R33's but the fact that I could get a newer model single turbo was a pleasant surprise :D (and couldn't find a R32 GTR with only 40 thou k's :D )

I think they are all beautiful cars though, one day I will have one of each :)

Time to drive home! (Awsome)

      Oh I don't want to get into the details of the 1.5way, @Kinkstaah is the one that holds all the wealth.

      Dose will be able to confirm this more, but a 1.5 way IS a 2 way. It's just not as aggressive on one of the ramps. Changing from 2 to 1.5 I'm not sure how though.

      R32 Sedan - Grip and Drift (have my cake and eat it too build)

      By CRSKmD · Posted

      No updates on the car but figured I'd share a nice outing. All the recent work paid off and I got it all together and out the shed for a car based pre-wedding celebration for a good mate of mine. Pretty casual cruise through the hills to a pub for lunch then out for some go-karting at The Bend. Headed down to Myponga for the night We stopped in at the reservoir before heading out down to the coast for lunch via the dam  By the end of the weekend away I covered 350km and the 32 generally behaved its self. A good Shake down after being apart before the Track day in a few weeks

      Prop Shaft rebuilding Melbourne.

      By SteveL · Posted

      The front prop shaft from my GTR had very notchy unis, which obviously needed replacement but unfortunately uses the (usually) non-replaceable (staked) type.     A new shaft is something like $2K plus shipping from Japan.   I wouldn't even bother asking the local Nissan spares dept.     Rang Hardy Spicer but no go, which surprised me a little.     There's a place over Dandenong way that would make me a 'performance' shaft but un-necessary in my situation.   They claimed to be getting the equipment in to replace staked unis but couldn't give me a timeframe.   Anyway, long story short, found a place to do the work just 5 mins from me: https://knoxdriveshafts.com.au $420 (cash) and about a week later I have my driveshaft back.   Price includes balancing. Owner is a one man band working out of a shed in his backyard but from what I could see he's very well setup with some expensive equipment.
