Your spaced out :P

When my car is going I'll organise a cruise... Once Jarrad has moved and all the motorsport events are done (pretty much all of August) I'll

Organise a BBQ meet up too, just for something different, try keep the Newy scene kicking :D

Oh, and we have a new skyline and member coming next week, Jack my next door neighbour loved my beast and has gone down to Nowra to pick up a 32gtst.... Good times ahead!!

Awesome shot mate!! It's a good location with potential... Just was the car after being near sand and salt etc ;)

Cheers mate... Yea she is probably due for a wash. Do you think it actually hurts the car that much driving it near the ocean etc?

Unless it was parked there regularily I wouldnt think so, but I'd hose the car anyway to be cautious...

Yea makes sense.. Will give it a wash through the week if there is some decent weather.. Need to clean up the inside abit also..

Hey Guys, I finally got that disc replaced from our Meet Up and posted the last of the pictures -

I know a few wanted copies so ill make some soon ;)

Anthony, definatly a great location for a group of cars pics!!

Yeah its a good spot... Should be able to get a location on the grass to get all of Newy in the backdrop? Not sure if we would need to run it by the council first though?

Yea i was thinking of getting some with newy in the back ground, i think there are plenty of spots for us to go etc.. but yea, nobbys in the backgorund works well. took some shots from the boat ramp facing towards korangang, showing the real newcastle ha... but they all turned out bad due to wrong settings on the camera unfortunately....

Yeah I've got a bit on too but may organise a meet for the guys anyway... We have a few new cars joining us on the next one :yes:

Waiting in coilovers and a few other bits mate :/ but found them cheap so it's worth the extra week wait

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
