Really looking forward to working with you guys to meet up more often, I would say that was the best cruise I have been on in terms of the friendly people and the positive attitude towards each others cars :)

If you have a photo of my 33, can you photoshop the mud off the tyers please :P

He will have photos of it mate, pretty sure we can fix the mud for you... Was good to cruise with ya :thumbsup:

Definately was an enjoyable meet and good to know there is some cool enthusiasts with imports in Newcastle. Never thought there was going to be such a big turnout. I think I did a good job of parking the boat away from the thoroughfare. Was good seeing cars kept in such good condition and that people respect their cars.

Cant remember anyones name seeing as I never pay attention to peoples names, but 34GeeTeeTee was a bloody funny bloke.

Can't wait till I get my full licence so I can take the purest of japanese muscle cars to one of the meet's (Nissan S15). Hopefully by then I'll be laying down around 300 horsepower at the rears, but realistically my car will still probably be in stock form as I'm contemplating saving up to import another mint condition champagne/charcoal two tone S13 from Japan to replace the one I used to have.

Cheers, and yeah you too, your car is very impressive. I'm a big fan of the more stealth look as opposed to the polish/chrome look

Thanks guys, was happy to organise but it was abit of a joint effort with Matt, thanks mate, and everyone else that had input, and of course everyone for showing up, made the day very enjoyable meeting local sau'ers.

Struggling with pics abit, but heres one of Martins bueaty... i know you were keen for some mate, hope i dont dissapoint!

Not disappointed with that pic at all

Thanks for organizing the meetup fellas, was a good day. Hopefully happens more often.

We WILL have regular meets... We have the SAU NSW Texi day next weekend but I think after that we should have a meet and workout what suits everyone in terms of future meets... I was gunna organise Stockton meets, but it may not suit everyone so let's work it out :)

Car looks good mate!

IF we do regular meets, let's keep it clean and support the SAU reputation... Like I mentioned today about the idiots that fkd up the Newcastle scene, let's not ruin a good thing :)

Was a good day, thanks Anthony!!! so many clean skylines own by people who truely appreciate them. Need more V series owners from Newcastle on here just sayin lol.

Oh wow, that is twice on one day... Not cool!!! Was an awesome looking car BTW :D

For cruises there are a few options... I might go scope a couple before suggesting... If you wanna tag along we can do an EOI mini cruise lol....

I think a regular meet up, BBQ, hangout whatever is in order ;)

Definately agree, regular meet up/ BBQ & cruise is a great idea. I think acting in a sensible manner (like how everyone cruised today) and having so many cars together all doing the right thing may help other motorists adopt a more positive perspective of imports. As I was at the back of the pack, I noticed all the people on the sidewalk of the roads and so on stop and have a bit of look of the convoy going past.

By the way, I noticed on entry to the carpark at Spears Point some of the little young kids were saying stuff like "Hey Dad, look at the skylines!!". Of course, they didnt say "Hey Dad, look at the Commodore". Which is pretty cool.

    • Pressure when IDLING, is meant to be 51PSi... So that amperage value needs to go up a fair chunk... I'd personally be factoring for more like 12amp at least on those runs, and at that point you need to hope the already there wiring doesn't drop you a volt or two, as that's a lot of fuel pressure flow drop off from 13.5 to 12V! Taking idle pressure of 51psi, means the pump will be drawing a MINIMUM of 9amps all the time based on your reading of the graph (3bar base, then allowing an extra 0.5bar for boost = roughly 51psi)
    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
