Cool thread and history. :) I guess I didn’t quite make the old school list 😢 but I was briefly an SDU member and I certainly feel old... I think I joined sau in 2002, maybe late in the year. 

i’m passing through to give thanks to our son of rajab and creator Prank. He built (and kept running) this place. I learned so much here and met so many great people, many of which are close friends to this day. Thanks Prank. ❤️

For those wondering I do still have a GTR and like all good ones it spends most of its time in the garage...

I see my good buddy blitz has checked in above. He’s been a close friend now for more than 15 years, we have shared so many good times. Shonen has remained one of my close friends, plus he had the raddest 34GTT forever ago. brisby and I have caused mischief all over the world together and he still has the worlds best 32 GTST.

I’ll probably forget some names but there’s a whole cast of friends I made here in Duncan, Kel, fatz, 31silhouette, bobbyporsche, merli, dan, dif, shell, Dave, tosh, steveN1, russ, mark, stretch and more. 

Thanks again PranK. :)

OMG Richard! @Beer BaronYou're definitely an old schooler, 100%.

Its really good to see you post. It's been a really long time!

I really hope things are well. Good to hear you still have your GTR.

I'm an '03, was in SDU but one day when reading the Aussie section saw the reference to SAU....so joined.

I think I was the first person to sell Skyline stuff on SAU with a part of the proceeds of the sale going to SAU.  I actually asked if it was ok to do that and got the thumbs up.  Sold probably 5-10 items with at least 10% going to SAU, and in some cases 100% going to them.  This trend has died a bit now [and I have stuff all to sell atm], but I'll rat my shed and see if I can kick it off again!  I know I have a s/s dump pipe somewhere 🤔

I remember that well. It was much appreciated.!!

Wow. Decided to check in on old Sau. Thoughts of owning a gtr again .Holy crap the prices .. 😄

Remember the mass defection from SDU too, as one of the original members back then. 

I had an email from Iron Chef that I just deleted back from 2015 when looking at importing a R34 GTR. They were all about 40-60k. Absolutely pooping that I never bought one. 💥

Oh wow! I wonder if his cousin has it atm. I really miss Nick, he was one of the nicest and most genuine people I've met in my life. Never complained and was always more worried about everyone else than himself. 😞

    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
