Well there's a couple of Maccas at Preston, u mentioning the one opposite northland or the one on Bell St near St Georges Rd? Opposite Nthland not too bad depending how many cars we got. If we get in early before the weekend shopping rush pours in. But at about 10-ish I'd suppose many shops will be opened already and too many cars there. We can go to Maccas Bell St, rock up early, have some breakkie then go from there.

Hi Geoff,

Sounds good.

There's like 2 or 3 threads of this now in this forum can be quite confusing to follow...

northern suburb guys meet at 9.45am @ bell st maccas? I read about the western suburb gonna be at calder 10.30am and they got vip treatment for sau club, like opening the door early just for us. It's in the other thread... so let's northerners be there too!

WTF happens man.... You northerners are a bunch of no-shows :)

I've been waiting in that Bell St Maccas from 9.45 for about 1/2 hr.

Not a single soul show up.... so I left 10.15 and go straight to Calder as some of the others is suppose to show up 10.30 there...

I arrived like 10.40 and there's only a couple of SAU members there. That looks like one of the most disorganised meet-up.

Anyhow I had a great day at Calder. We still manage to get the SAU people to park at one corner of the main car park outside, maybe about 10-15 cars only. Those Jap D1 drivers are nuts!!!! Those who didn't go miss out a big time....

BTW Funkeh, did you go? I didn't see you there.

hehe.....i waited at the shell station on toorak rd 9:45-10:15 waiting for the convoy from megamart to swing by but no show....so i just headed up myself to find that the gates were already open, organisers didnt know what was goin on when i mentioned SAU. asked about the wrist band for pit acess and they knew nothing about it.

ah well......its hard to get things perfect all the time:D:D

Ja, sorry about my no-show :) I had all sorts of problems 'cause I was playing taxi. Ended up having to go out to blackburn do do a pickup : got there eventually, and the ppl at the gates said i get my pit pass inside? couldn't find the SAU guys for a while.

But all in all a great day out. The Jap D1 guys were awesome :) the people I was playing taxi for were whinging so i had to ditch after the first round of qualifying - so next time I'll go on my own with people who are actually interested in it - like u guys :)

I was there in a bright red R33 from 09:35 with a choccy thickshake until 09:55 cause I thought I was stood up, and rolled in at Calder just before 10:30. Even then James and the guys were a bit late but it was a great event, even if it is just lair-assin' about. Gotta admire the skill of the D1 guys.

Anyways, no biggie. The end result was the same for those who went...a good day.

what?? where were u? didn't u see my car when I arrive?

anyhow good to hear you went... yeah those D1 drivers were awesome.

so much corner entry speed...

pity I had to leave around 3pm so miss the rest of the show.

heard there were even more to see after I left.

Right beside the drive thru, and left north on St George.

 

Next time dude.

funny, there was a few guys hanging around near the drive thru... around a bright red lancer coupe....

omg, i hate to think that's you.... cos it means ur R33 looks like a lancer to me.

he he :)

    • Yeah, this is one of the most annoying things about nissan part numbers... I've got an unrelated example... Image is of the AT output shaft ~ they have the same part#, but clearly the shaft on the left is beefier design to that on the right ...the difference (essentially) is the 'lighter' shaft on the right, is for engines up to RB25DE (this includes RB20 variants) : the shaft on the left is for RB25/26DET(T)....are they interchangeable? Yes...but obviously one shaft is going to be stronger than the other...and, the lighter shaft is around USD115, but the heavier shaft closer to USD150...same part#... ...epc-data usually tells a tale ~ the amayama listing for 39100-23U60 has a note "Longest side is between 60 and 105 cm" ; no such info is there for 39100-23U70 ...and given the great disparity in price between the 2 parts, it makes me at least curious (to the point of caution) where the 'extra money' went? ...ie; these 2 parts have a cost difference that (to myself at least) isn't explained by 'plastic boot'...ie; with amayama there's AUD700 price difference ...plastic versus rubber?...I'm not seeing it like that...and 60cm ~ 105cm...??...that's a huge disparity....something hinky going on here... I'd try searching by VIN, not model... /2cents
    • I don't know for sure, but I'd expect them all to be interchangeable given the diff end and hub end don't move/change between any C34 series. Often Nissan will change part numbers and the aftermarket follows those year ranges; but the original part number change doesn't mean other parts won't fit. The change could be a change in material, internal parts or even just supplier. For example, all the RB gearbox to engine bolts are no longer available and there is a new part number instead. The only change is they went from cadmium plated bolts to zinc plated due to the issues manufacturing with Cadmium. They look different but work the same.
    • One year is a bit concerning. Did you try contacting GSP? It says 5 year warranty on the box if I remember correctly. I'm also running their driveshafts on my S2 Stagea.   You could check the part numbers on Amayama for your year. Here's the link for my 1998 which gives the 39100-23U60 part number. Well, that and 39100-23U70. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/epc/nissan-japan/stagea/wgnc34/6649-rb25det/trans/391 What does it say for yours?
    • I ordered a GSP Front R/H Axle from here - https://justjap.com/products/gsp-premium-front-driveshaft-r-h-nissan-r32-r33-r34-skyline-gtr-stagea-4wd#description It lasted around a year before one of the boots blew out. I'm lowered, but I have GKTech roll center adjusters. One year seems a little premature. I think I'm going to spend the extra money on an OEM cv axle this time. This website - https://tfaspeed.com/collections/nissan-stagea-wgnc34-x-four-parts/products/nissan-stagea-awc34-260rs-rb26-right-front-axle-drive-assembly Makes it sound like the readily available OEM CV axle will only fit 11.1999 Stagea and up (mine is a 2.1997 S1). The JustJap listing didn't mention any years or anything for the GSP axle. Amayama shows '11.1999' and up as well for that part number. As well as 'plastic boot type'. See attached picture. So I guess my question is, does that axle (39100-23U60) really only fit S2 Stagea? It's the front driver side. If it does, I'd love to buy that instead of rolling the dice on another GSP. I've found that OEM one cheaper here: https://www.partsfornissans.com/oem-parts/nismo-jdm-r32-r33-r34-skyline-gtr-r32-gts4-right-front-axle-3910023u60 and here https://www.nissanparts.cc/oem-parts/nismo-shaft-ft-drive-3910023u60 Just a little confused because the JapSpeed listing for the GSP front driver axle doesn't mention any specific years or anything and it fit my S1 Stagea fine. So will 39100-23U60 fit my S1 Stagea even though technically it says '11.1999' and up? What would have changed? Thanks.  
    • Thanks for the info. The only "Issue" I've had with the shifter is I always found the throw between 4th and 6th gear too close. I'm always worried to shift into 4th accidently and sending my motor to the moon. Adam LZ recently came out with a video and stated Serialnine revised their shifters to correct this and will change all the revised parts for 150$. Strangely enough, I contacted Serialnine right after and they denied it and said it's bullshit. I found that strange as he's a distributer. I'll keep this forum post updated on that saga.
