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.

    • I'm actually not sure - I think it was "Stealth Performance" (It really is near impossible to find a FEMALE 1/8BSPT to 1/8NPT male at ALL) but having the thing leveraged on a 90 degree angle on a small aluminium fitting is not too smart. Also in not too smart, I've drilled out the center of the broken fitting so there's maybe 0.00001mm of thread to bite into, so yeah. I may have to get it drilled/tapped/plugged entirely. Given I could conceivably tap a thread/adapter/pressure line in any point in the oil system I suppose it's feasible to run a line to the Nissan Sensor to keep the dash working. Do these exist in AN fittings and the like? Like an AN fitting that has a NPT (or other?) thread as well for putting a sensor in?
    • I would agree.  There will be an amount of boost you could run safely with an otherwise factory system, but it would be low enough to not be worth the cost.  And if you are reliving your 20s, you know a 'little bit' was never enough. Personally, if I didn't want to spend the money, then stick with NA bolt-ons, and maybe a tune.
    • Fuark, at least the motor survived. What brand was the fitting that snapped?
    • Wrong question. There's no point in spending the rather large sum of cash and effort to add turbo, without taking it to the "sensible" limit of the motor itself. If you have to upgrade injectors, etc, then so be it. That is a tiny fraction of what it will cost you to turbo it.
    • Measure voltage at the starter solenoid terminal when the key is at start and it has clicked. If it is really low, then the suspicion falls on the ignition switch (contacts or wiring thereof) as causing a voltage drop instead of sending enough volts to throw the solenoid all the way to engage the starter itself. If it is a decent voltage, then the suspicion is on the solenoid. Might have s horted coil, or might hva dirty contacts. Rip the starter off, dismantle, clean up contacts and inspect winding. It might not be possible to see if there is a short in the winding though. I have a spare starter here that I could measure the resistance of the coil, as a guide to about what it should be, if you need a comparison. <parts hoarder>No you cannot have it.</parts hoarder>
