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

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.

      R34 GTR Front Diffuser/Guard Liner questions.

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Hello everyone. I've recently started the research into R34 GTR front bits and running into eye watering prices. On the plus site it looks like some places make 'replacement' fender liners for these cars. At eye-watering-but-less than stock prices. I also noticed there's plenty of diffuser options available too. What I would like to know is if my following assumptions are correct. 1) The OEM guard liners are actually only 'half' the liner. They go together with the OEM brake vents which are a separate item which looks to be quite a large 'panel' that is part of the liner. The GTR bumper has bolt holes along the front. I assume the ones in the vent correspond to the ones the OEM liner does not have (circled?)   2) The V-Spec front diffuser supplants the brake ducts in the above item. I am assuming these still work with the guard liners as there's no alternate part that I'm aware of. I don't see how they go together, so I'm making the assumption that they have to, somehow. I know the center splash guard is different on the V-Spec (and is the price of the damn diffuser alone). How does the liner interact with this? 3) There's alternate front diffusers that do away with it all. Annoyingly, a lot of the clones and CF different ones... have no brake ducts on them. I like the idea of them though. My brakes get hot on the track. These alternate diffusers are a lot cheaper than plastic splash guards. I'm assuming you don't have to/aren't supposed to remove guard liners to run a diffuser. I suspect that quite a few people actually do not run the guard liner because with a front undertray you're getting a lot of 'splash' guarding anyway, and most people remove liners given they're probably running a pretty aggressive setup with a diffuser at the front. It would also be nice to know if anyone has ever run the 'reproduction' guard liners and know whether the fitment is OEM quality or "OEM Quality". Example: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/356254671561 https://carbonetics.net/products/nissan-skyline-r34-gtr-plastic-front-wheel-arch-set Is this knowledge still around?

      Really, effort is pretty low. You hand fistfuls of cash over to someone else and pick it up when done...   And at least this shitbox isn't drinking coolant right?

      Cold compression test after rebuild... should I be worried?

      By MBS206 · Posted

      And most chargers that most DIY people own would put bugger all power back into the battery between cylinders. I've always done it with jumper packs/second battery connected. And that's on any car.   Because race car, and wanting the lightness.  At least in an R33, putting a bigger battery in can at least help shift the weight balance backwards
