Hey ron!

I joined in 06.

Ives seen some familiar faces come and go in the last 6 years!

I remember when you were active on the forum, it is going back some time tho.

As terry asked, what are you driving? and are skylines still a passion of yours?

Cheers adam

Hi guys, yeah been away for a while but really this is the only forum I feel like home.

I still remember back in the days of SDU, and yes I was on there as well.

Also remember the days skyline owners used to just flash hibeams as we past one another (back then Lines were rare, got mine in '99)

I dont have one anymore but still love them to bits, whenever i see all you guys' cars boostin up the street it still give me goosebumps and bring back memories.

I m a tradie now so i drives hiace van everyday, but couple time a week i get to jump in my miss's R36 family car. Til E63 comes that is, just waiting to test drive the current one with 5.5TT

pffft.. damn old timers.

Dam straight :whistling:

Remember SDU well. I joined it in around 1999 - 2000. Still had my R31 GTS2, and was starting to shop for my GTSt.

Fondest memories were arguing with the chequebook racer from hell who claimed that all his developments were his own design / idea (even made some claims insinuating that his ideas were taken up by Cosworth when he got them to do some development on his GTR). Of course back in those days if you dared to question anything he said you'd get shot down (and banned) by his fanboi club. I won't mention any names, but I'm sure those from that era will remember him well.

      Yeah, I don't believe the M35 uses a deadhead system.

      M35 Aftermarket Fuel Pump

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Have you done your thinking backwards? 3 bar, 43.5 psi pressure drop being the presumed specification for an injector, means you need 3 bar upstream when they are firing into atmospheric pressure, and more upstream pressure than that when on boost (you add your boost to your rail pressure to maintain 3 bar across the injector) and you need..... less pressure upstream when you have vacuum in the manifold. So, presuming that you're idling at -10 psi, then you only need ~23 psi in the rail. I realise that I did not need to say all of that to you specifically Matt, once you'd realised your mistake. It's mostly there for complete clarity for others.

      Have you reached out to the guys at Spool Imports? They are a Ross dealer, I can imagine they would have the rings just sitting on the shelf (I could be wrong).

      Back for more after 18 years - and where are the longnose R200 LSDs?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      There's one for sale at Grand Auto Wreckers in Lonsdale (SA), for .... let's suggest the sum they're asking for will make you cry. You may have to embrace the idea of modifying the rear subframe to accept some other diff. You could probably find a way to wangle a shortnose into there, with a custom rear adapter and some sort of shenanigans to relocate the front mounts. This has probably already been done by others, so there might be some guidance available as to how easy/impossible it is, out there in the googles. But you possibly needn't restrict yourself to Nissan diffs if you're going to contemplate that. There are similarish Toyota diffs, possibly some Euro ones, possibly some Seppo ones.

      G35 Control arm and Compression Rods into a V35 Skyline.

      The ball joint taper and arm taper have to match angle and diameter, but just doing the bushes is a much better option.....seems like the industry moved to "it is cheaper to replace the whole arm than take on the labour for changing this bushes", glad the aftermarket supports it
