Hi there guys, my name is Dan, I run a WA based car club for R32 Skyline Owners.

I am looking at expanding this club throughout Aus and getting the word out.

I am looking for an individual in Victoria who is interested in being the VIC event organiser for the club.

You would need to be mature, really love your 32 and dont intend on selling it any time soon.

Willing to donate your time and a little bit of coin for organising regular cruises. (I try and run one every 1-2 months)

Willing to organise driving events, dyno days and any show events that would be suitable for showing the type of cars that we have.

I dont expect this person to be on the ball for every car show available, I just expect for them to do their bit for the club and attend at least a major event eg.. powercruise

You also need to be conscious of the image you give the club.. ie.. dont organise a cruise and go and drop burnouts at every meet point. The club prides itself on just enjoying the drive, the cars and the people in the club.

pretty simple stuff

either pop me a PM or show your interest in here.

hey I've got this idea for this round thing that you put on the corners of the car... makes it sooo much smoother to move. I'm thinking of calling it "the wheel". What do you reckon? Shoot me a PM if you're keen to come onboard and market the idea in WA.

In case you're too dense to get my allusion, stop trying to reinvent the wheel.

SAU caters for skyline owners of all varieties. We have regional clubs that manage track days and events with CAMS affiliation etc.

If you want to set up an R32 only group in your local area, that's fine. Organise an R32 only cruise on SAU, that's fine too. But if you want to leverage SAU to make your own little 32SAU national club and kickstart a forum of your own... Get. The. Fuck. Out.

Sincerely,

Admin and avid R32 owner since 1999 (GTS, GTSt, GTS4, GTR and even GTE models)

Im not going too get all emo about it, I understand why you posted what you did but I did try to do the right thing first.

Which is why instead of banning you for spamming the forum I've merely locked your threads and told you to cut it out.

By all means get together with other R32 owners through local meets you organise on SAU. Just don't try to scalp members on here to your own forum.

Exactly what's wrong with SAU that you need to create a splinter forum?

What content on your forum do you have that caters specifically to R32 owners that SAU doesn't already provide?

Other than body panels, cosmetic parts, a 16bit ECU and hydraulic ATTESA system, what other unique features do R32s have over an R33 or R34 that they require a specialist forum?

How do you believe you can organise a club better and create a better user experience overall than a devoted committee of up to 10 people per state and a forum of 50,000 members?

what does the mechanics of the car have anything to do with it.

The forum is not about trying to out-do SAU.. It is for people who love the car's styling and history to put it in short.

I put the idea to a few 32 Owners and they thought it was a good idea, yes its a small club but size is not everything.

lol I don't have anything against other models of skylines, I have had 3x 32's, I love the old school but not dated styling, how they offer raw power and none of this traction control crap, easy to fix, light weight ect..

There are other people that see the car the same way, not just another drift shitter. So its more of a club for people who are passionate about their R32.

But hey not everyone is going to like the idea I suppose, if it goes well great. If not well shit happens, no harm in trying.

I respect what you're saying funkymonkey, I am not going to argue with you. /thread

hey theres this club that caters for skylines..

f**k i forgot what it was called but its pretty cool

they have a massive R32 fanboy base as well as other sections.

maybe you could join it since you like R32's so much

IBTL

I had PM'd a couple of Admin on the forum and there was no issue asking this question, why is it an issue with you?

Im not going too get all emo about it, I understand why you posted what you did but I did try to do the right thing first.

You can always give him a go at his signature.

Nice idea actually, it centres right on R32s only and looking at the forum there's a bit I haven't seen here. Make the site more interesting by adding some contrast and colour (its a bit of an eye strain at the moment). If it helps, I'll be looking out for HOW-TO stuff and tutorials which can be difficult to find on this site but easier to find on yours. GL.

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
