Yeah, I think a drive might be a good way to unwind from work.

Hope to have a few things sorted on the car by then :happy:

Nick in his C34 should be coming, any other Sydney stags?

SAU social cruise 26th Feb

Nah - unfortunately, Raf and Alex, I won't be able to make it. Got a birthday party to attend that afternoon/night and if I come along I won't be back in time to help in the set-up.

There is a March cruise coming up though (details to be posted soon), and I should be able to make that one, depending on how many birthday parties are set up between now and then (mine and at least 5 other friends are all in March)...

Evening peeps! long time no post! Goldzilla, I apologise for not contacting you: I was down your end a couple of weeks ago, but only for a very short time, and mega busy... Hi to all the new faces! Hope all is well!

Micah

Nah: too busy trying to buy investment property, and the old girl's got some life left in her yet!

I'm trying my damndest to make the numbrs work for me to move down your way, but the pricing in the Northern beaches is........ a real Beach! Still, there is some potential.... watch this space... ;)

stag decided to start making a funny noise last 2 times i've driven it.... checked all fluid levels and everything seems to be fine!

pretty sure its the power steering belt or something....as it gets louder when I put the wheel in full lock!! >.<

(at least my clutch thrust bearing whine has gone away for the last 6 months)

might take it in for a service as the 100,000 just ticked over the other day! whistling.gif

yeh im pretty sure most cars make a slight "belty" sort of sound at full lock.. maybe get it checked if your getting someone to do the 100,000km service, maybe them??

yeah i'm getting it checked thursday!! it kindof goes away after the car warms up! >.<

just made me worried cos it was a "different" kindof a noise haha whistling.gif

yeh atezza, make sure when your checking it, the car is running and at operating temp. its the only time the pump bottle will be accurate.

lol, im suprised at how modifcations fit in there.. hahaha

no cats. maybe a mouse, or two

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
