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.

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
