Sorry dude..

Didn't check here.

Tom and I were there. Quite a few JDMs there. Lots of 4 door skylines, lots of evos, a few S chassis cars and GTSTs there.

Also went on a short run just before the meet. Wasn't entirely good cos the roads were slightly wet but oh well :)

Question is, were you there?

Just over 1 month to go and we should have one more member back for cruises!

I hope you've learnt from this :thumbsup: ..........................

Needs more power so at least you've got a smokescreen up and running while you make your great escape :ninja:

Who's that?

Maybe we need to do a new page for us Tbar and Gatton peeps on FB? Just one central place? A bit like what we had for Toowoomba skyline owners but also with the Gatton peeps?

Pfft sounds gay.

In other news I'm going to put the new bushes in for the rear diff. Will need the subframe removed to do it. Does anyone know how hard it is to do? Or does anyone have the instructions on how to do it?

I did mine a couple of weeks ago, fairly simple process just a bit time consuming. You doing the subframe bushes while its out?

Basically, remove exhaust from cat back, un-bolt tail shaft (marking the position of the flanges first), remove rear calipers, disconnect the hand-brake cables and unbolt the brackets from the sub frame, put 2 jacks under the frame and jack them up till they are holding the weight of it, remove the 4 bolts on the subframe, lower it slowly with the jacks. There is a breather line and an earthing strap in the diff, also if you still have HICAS make sure you unplug that as well.

Basically the same process in reverse to re-install it. If you want pics there is a few in by build thread.

    • Took me a while to answer that.... Funny thing is, the across the river neighbour did put in an airstrip, built a hanger, and buy a cessna, because strangely they aren't allowed to build a house on the property but there is no problem building an airport terminal They've used in 3 times, once for an attempted landing where they misjudged a little, aborted and missed the trees by so little that new underwear was required. Second time the landing stuck, then a few weeks later the plane left and never returned, so I don't think aircraft noise is going to be an issue. Funny looking back through the last few posts too, I've spent a heap of time lately redoing the roads  and drains so I guess it is a 2 yearly thing to add to the calendar. Those big drains did overflow in the rain about a month ago so that is pretty disheartening....just a reminder that you can't stop nature I guess.
    • So I’m having issues with my power steering. the obvious heavy and light and comes on and off randomly now it’s constantly heavy. I’ve read through forums regarding this issue and what I’ve gather is that it’s referring to hicas deletion. That’s the problem mine didn’t come with hicas.    I’ve rebuilt the steering rack, pump, changed the bent hardline on the rack and taken out the solenoid to clean and loosen up the actuator, applied 12v to get it moving. Roughly checked the loom to see if there’s any damage to the loom and nothing. Now I’m checking the wiring. I’ve tested the wiring to the solenoid and it’s fluctuating between 0.07v to 0.03v. Does anyone know what it’s supposed to be reading? 5v? Anyone one know how this all works? Is there a fuse in between? What else is it connected to? How does it connect to the speed sensor? A resistor fried in the ecu? Please help. It’s been years Thanks in advance 
    • that's pretty good condition, those chips are nothing. Get a mobile repairer to sort it out. Nice wheels, I had white 17's on my GT-R once, looked nice.
    • Found a car that has kiki desing wheels on it with diffrent plates that match a 2008 model when clearly it's not white  
    • Howdy friends, So this evening I had a need to remove the rear compressor turbo pipe (long story, but I'm replacing it due to a bolt snapping off in the pipe and managing to then snap an extraction bit in the broken bolt, fun times -_-). The rear bolt is a bit of a bastard and very little room to get good leverage. I was able to get a 12 mm socket onto the bolt head, but none of my ratchets were able to fit, so I put together a "stubby" socket wrench to get it out and it worked surprisingly well 🙂. In the past I've "made" tools by cutting down spanners and bending them with a torch etc, but this 3D printed wrench was way less effort. I'll be keeping this one in my "special tool draw" from now on for sure ^_^b https://www.printables.com/model/868973-half-inch-stubby-socket-wrench
