Hey all,

If your not a Mushroom you would know by now that the SAU Nationals 2013 is being held in South Australia this year.

It's a bit of a trip but reward yourself and take some well earned time off work and make the Journey.

I encourage you all to consider as these are AWESOME events. Much fun during the days and shenanigans in the evenings.

A number of us ACT peeps represented @ Shepparton Vic in 2011 and Goulbourn NSW in 2012.

Best opportunity to meet the rest of the Skyline community and have some unforgettable times.

Yes I'll be going and I'll be driving the GTR.

Bit of a Nostalga trip also. Haven't been to S.A for about 25yrs.

Grew up in a number of places in SA from Semaphore, Port Adelaide, Smithfield plains to Inverbrackie up in the Hills. (Army brat)

Got my first tatt on Hindley street near Rundle Mall ! (ye old eagle - lol).

I'm going to go for a beer at Eagle on the Hill too. Never be the same as the original.

I remember the Dukebox and Astroids/PACman/Frogger table game, bucket of hot chips and a fire engine :)

Small stone pub and had to duck to get through the doorways. Awesome old pub.

Even tried tipping the soccer bus over on Devils Elbow when single lane and it turned in on itself.

No, a bit far out. Just seeking ACT interest at the moment.

Also want to see when NSW crew may cruise past and see if it suits.

Will plan with Kyle and any others and see how we lock in with each others thinking.

Accommodation will be the first thing locked in/down.

I hate the Hay plains so much I can't even tell you how many times I've done that freaking trip.

I wish I could go and have the GTR in my old stomping grounds (I grew up in Adelaide) however too close to my US trip in November.

Look forward to seeing pics and footage, will be an epic convoy!

I too have done hay plains one to many times (every year for the past 21 years)

not sure if ill drive or tow yet. will see what happens. if i tow it gives the advantage of having more space + if (when) someone breaks something/has a problem we could shuffle their car onto the trailer. something to think about i spose

      34 de+t conversion using s2 stagea automatic transmission, engine harness and ecu

      By albyz34gt · Posted

      Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys

      Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?

      My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.

      Wheel Sizes & Offsets For Skylines

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.

      Rear Sway Bar Busshings - Holden Astra TS (2002)

      I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
