Sorry to hijack,

Why not make it the Sunday? The forcast is 17 and sunny.

Plus off memory they open the race course centre circle for parking. That area gets very boggy.

Heaps of cars where getting stuck a couple of year ago when it rained at the Melbourne show.

are we still headin in if its raining, or are they displayin all the cars in that big building they got there...does anyone know?
good question :thumbsup:

just looked at the map on the autosalon website looks like theres a building there, did a zoom in on google maps and there was a building where they had shaded in the autosalon stand on there site

There should be undergound / cover parking at showgrounds..?

yeah wasnt too much worried bout parking just if bits of the display were outside wount want to get wet, but i think i cleared it up by lookin on there site should be in that building, dunno if anyone went to motorvate earlier on in the year but looks like autosalon are gonna use the same building

yeah fair point

but i did go on autosalon website just before they must have updated there event page with a map cos haven't seen it there last i looked

but where they had shaded on map "display area for autosalon" i checked nearby streets n mapped it on Google maps and zoomed in on satellite mode and it showed a building there

so i think we should be good long as we get close parking which cant be too hard cos were leaving first thing

i dont think auto salon will be as good as it used to be (no sau vic stand) and you would think they would have wanted some car representation for a skyline club as thats what helps get the people in ....if i have time i will go have a look...only interested in the dyno challenges as i have seen more than enough cars moving into the exhibition center for that show

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      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.
