Hooray!!! Man I hope the weather is going to be good for this!!

What do you mean you "hope" the weather will be good?

Of course it will be! The import gods will shower us in sunshine for honouring Godzilla!

Terry forgot to mention that this will be organised by the same crew who organised the 10th Anniversary R34 GT-R Cruise (and all of you who came know that was awesome!!!)

We plan on making it bigger and better this time!

Are you driving up? Do it!

Just bought two tickets for the event so pretty damn good chance of making an appearance. Now to decide whether to drive the GTR up or chuck it on a trailer! ;)

It's great to have you along Vu.

By making a weekend of it, Fri-Mon, perhaps you'd like to see the V8 Shootout on Sat 9/10/10 then...

Stay overnight at Pioneer Way Motel at 429 Great Western Hwy Faulconbridge 02-47512194 (suitable for low-lip cars) then...

On Sunday for our big event 10/10/10, it's just 25 mins down the hill to Tench Ave., Penrith :)

Cheers for the info, this will be something different - havent been to Sydney before! I've got a vague plan for the weekend will have to see closer to the date.

Will be great seeing loads of R32 GTRs together :ninja:

Both my girls turning 21 years old this year.... the GTR and the missus. lol

Mine's a daily which means I drove my GTR from Melbourne :-) Take a drive mate, just keep it on 5th and 2900rpm and a useful passenger :)

If you need a carwash before the event let me know, I might be able to arrange something for a small group ;-) (don't worry I won't be the one washing lol)

SOO DESU KA :)

Well I wrote a much longer reply but bloody Maccas' internet keeps disconnecting me.

I did the route today driving up to Katoomba and among other places including the cinema in which the event will be using to screen something very special. The drive itself was excellent, lots of challenges for you need to keep awake! The weather was excellent.

I visited the Edge (cinema) and let me tell you, I was pleasantly surprised to find such a high tech facility in the middle of nowhere. Katoomba has no Maccas, just plenty of interesting restaurants I did not expect to find including a few chinese, thai and greek! The Edge however has all the food and drinks you want. It is big, clean and professional with a sizable arcade section for the gamers in us. It will be a great place to relax after a hour and a bit of driving!

I'm expecting big things from our sponsors/exhibitors and am very keen to know what kind of R32 they'll be putting up. If not I'll put mine there :thumbsup:

Lets just say that 400 Skylines turn up, can we somehow break this up into groups? I would actually like to see a group of all gunmetal R32s which I believe will be a lot out there. WOuld make an interesting video ;-)

Your SA plates along with ACT, NSW & QLD will add tons of flavour to the day; especially with SAU, Performance Imports & Motive DVD shooters floating around. :P

Hi Sam,

I see you have been checking out the route, just a quick question regarding speedhumps.

Were there any, can you remember if there were any and how bad were they?

I am worried my exhaust might be a little too low for some humps out there.

Thanks mate.

:ninja:

Hey dude, you won't find any speed humps in the route that we've mapped out unless you veer off-course to see the 3 sisters, Evan's point etc (which I did!). The only places I worry about are the entry/exit points at the meeting place and at the cinema, which most of us can maneuver anyway.

Within the Edge Cinema complex, there are no speed humps to speak of ie. very mild.

When entering The Edge Cinema area, it's best to enter the carpark further past Civic Place & there's no speed hump.

But if you enter via Civic Place, it's best to enter via the 'Exit' lane on the right hand side (next to the retaining wall). There's no problem then.

      ER34 AT ECU and HKS SLD pins

      By GoHashiriya · Posted

      Hi all, I need to get this HKS SLD attached to my stock ECU because I've now got the German autobahn and faster European circuits to contend with.  The car is a manual 2dr ER34 with an AT ECU and I've realised the AT ECU has two pins for speed sensor signals: Pin 29: Vehicle speed sensor signal (Vehicle speed sensor 2) Pin *58: Output shaft rotation sensor signal (Vehicle speed sensor 1) - *RB25DET A/T model only Before I go butchering this harness, is anyone sure of which pin is the correct one for signal adjustment? The attached document from HKS indicates pin 29 but I found this situation mentioned in the following thread on a different forum (R34 GTT Auto Trans Speed Cut Problem | Zerotohundred) mentioning pin 58 needing to be altered by member zephuros, albeit it seems to be for an RSM-GP and the info appears to be old.  R34_All_Workshop_Manual-pages-2.pdf R34_All_Workshop_Manual-pages-3.pdf R34_All_Workshop_Manual-pages-1.pdf HKS SLD Vehicle Pin out P59-P70 ER34-pages.pdf

      Slimline sub on the rear parcel shelf is doable. Pioneer TS-WX140DA is only 70mm high.

      Rear suspension upgrades

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      People like Johnny Dose Bro might be laughing at my post because I accidentally added 100mm to my numbers. 350-355 is indeed the lower limit. 450 is off-road Skyline spec.

      What is the "compromise" that you think will happen? Are you thinking that something will get damaged? The only things you have to be concerned about with spherical jointed suspension arms are; Arguments with the constabulary wrt their legality (they are likely to be illegal for road use without an engineering certificatation, and that may not be possible to obtain). A lot more NVH transmitted through to the passengers (which is hardly a concern for those with a preference for good handling, anyway). Greatly increased inspection and maintenance requirements (see above points, both).   It is extremely necessary to ask what car you are talking about. Your discussion on strut tops, for example, would be completely wrong for an R chassis, but be correct for an S chassis. R32s have specific problems that R33/4 do not have. Etc. I have hardened rubber bushes on upper rear control arms and traction rods. Adjustable length so as to be able to set both camber and bump steer. You cannot contemplate doing just the control arms and not the traction arms. And whatever bushing you have in one you should have in the other so that they have similar characteristics. Otherwise you can get increased oddness of behaviour as one bushing flexes and the other doesn't, changing the alignment between them. I have stock lower rear arms with urethane bushes. I may make changes here, these are are driven by the R32's geometry problems, so I won't discuss them here unless it proves necessary. I have spherical joints in the front caster rods. I have experienced absolutely no negatives and only positives from doing so. They are massively better than any other option. I have sphericals in the FUCAs, but this is driven largely by the (again) R32 specific problems with the motion of those arms. I just have to deal with the increased maintenance required. Given how much better the front end behaves with the sphericals in there.....I'd probably be tempted to go away from my preference (which is not to have sphericals on a road car, for 2 of the 3 reasons in the bulleted list above), just to gain those improvements. And so my preference for not using sphericals (in general) on a road car should be obvious. I use them judiciously, though, as required to solve particular problems.
