Hi everyone,

I'm a proud owner of Dragon, my '07 Nissan Skyline 370GT V36.

Had this car for over 2 years now and I've been a casual lurker on this site since then. I have finally made the decision to join.

I live in the Southern Brisbane area and I'm looking for places where I can take my car to receive some good loving. I love my car to bits, I take care of it really well, but I'd like to start exploring and giving it some extra care and attention by starting on some upgrades, but would like to sort out a place I can take it to with confidence.

If anyone can recommend some good mechanics, tuning and detailing shops around my area, it would be highly appreciated (I have tried searching around the forums, but I'm having trouble finding any recent entries regarding this - unless I'm blind :P)

Any help and/or tips would be wonderful.

Thanks in advance and looking forward to conversing with the lot of you!

-AC

Very nice. If I didn't buy my wagon, I would've gone for a V36 as well.

Thanks. What kind of wagon do you have?

Gorgeous! I came very close to buying one of these. 

Thanks! Gotta say, one of the best decisions I ever made. I got a big smile on my face every time I'm behind the wheel. :)
People don't believe me when I tell them it's a 2007 model. Definitely ahead of its time, especially with all the features that come with it.

    • Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.
    • At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!
    • Thanks MBS206, i got that PDF but got abit overhelm with all the connections and tracing of wires. I wasn't expecting to plug the dash harness anywhere. i was just going to use my electronics jumper wires to plug into the right pins like ECU power, ecu ground, ignition trigger etc... I do have a few ratchet straps locking it down tight. Fire extinguisher ready and only a small amount of fuel at a time, enough to submerge the pump.
    • Thanks GTSBoy, i will do abit more digging. I am missing a blue relay near the ECU connector... so i will chase that up in the next few days as well  
    • https://yariksteel.ru/manual/R33/Skyline_R33_elektroprovodka.pdf   Page 18 should be what you want for the Dash Cluster wiring. Though, you don't need the dash plugged in to get the motor running. What you want is power as how GTSBoy said. You need to power the ECU. Find in the above link the ECU pin outs (Verify them before just connecting them up from things written on the internet). Find anything needing power, give it power, find anything needing ground, give it ground. Then give the starter motor power through a big cable, and bridge the solenoid on the starter straight to power too.  ECU will be on, and when you give the starter power, it'll spin the starter motor, and it should start. I also hope you have a proper stand, and not just the engine sitting on some wood. You will want it bolted down properly.
