Hey guys have been here for a few weeks now, thought I would come here and say hello because the wasteland looks like some fun and I didn't want to be too much of a random. My names Bill, live in the Hurstville area Sydney, looking at becoming an SAU NSW member as I want to get more involved in the car community, I love skylines always have, always will and everyone from SAU is nothing but friendly and seem like an awesome bunch of blokes. Interested in participating in some track days and things like that. Had a few fair lemon daily's in my driving career only two things worth noting are a Honda prelude (barely- not a Honda fan-boy) and a non turbo r33 gtst back in my late teens.

The prelude was nice and had nice creature comforts however I wouldn't enjoy the FWD, I loved the Skyline as you would imagine. I have a lemon Mitsubishi Magna as a daily which is on its way out and is also due for rego, I'll be getting something cheap with some rego to get around for now, almost at the end of my saving goal to buy a weekender.

Other then cars, I'm not into too much as a hobby anymore, was never into the clubbing or the going out scene, more of a hang out with friends grab something to eat and relax type of guy.

Was into bodybuilding for about 5 years quiet seriously, dont go too often anymore, enjoy some fifa on PlayStation so if anyone wants a game pm me.

Thats about it, happy to be here, if anyone has any questions let me know!

Cheers, Bill

Welcome.

definitely join the club.

as a cams affiliated club, you can get your license and enter motorsport events.

great bunch of people.

either way, hope to see you on some cruises.

Cheers on the replies guys( and girls) , definitely going to join up, anyone have a link and the easiest way to go a bout becoming a member? Is it possible to become a member even if one doesnt own a skyline at the moment?

Have no pics on the set up, nothing fancy, dont have a skyline at the moment and probably wont for a while. I was going to get an r32 GTR but with the age and maintanence on them i've decided to go for an evo for now, (dont shoot me) still really want to become a member and participate and become more involved in the whole motorsport events and cruise scene, surely there are a few NSW members that have evo's and different types of cars other then skylines?

Don't get me wrong skyline will always be my favorite and if I had enough I would love to get mint series 3 r33 GTR or an r34, just dont have the funds for it at the moment, later on in life when I am set up a little better I'll definitely be going in that direction..

Before someone says why dont you go and become a member of an evo club, simply because an r34 GTR was my dream car growing up and I have always loved everything Nissan.

I have been browsing these forums for so long and cant help but notice how friendly and helpful everyone is, just seems like an awesome crowd to hang around and I feel a lot more comfortable in this community.

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Waders360 · Posted

      I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way

      This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.

      Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.

      To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all

      300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
