Great to see her back on the road!  Glad the JB Weld is holding her together!

thanks mate. im currently trying to slowly build an rb30. but if i was ever to build another rb26 block im pretty sure i would jb weld the entire side on each side of the block lol.  i put so much on the intake side that the block literally looks flat from rear of engine to the coolant neck on my block(i put so much you cant even see the water jacket plugs anymore.) i used a fak load of jb weld and i mean alot........probably stronger than ever now mate, cheers ill get some videos of her screaming.

Very nicely made, well done!  Here in Australia if you drive a Skyline and see the cops you run for the hills! 😂. They crucify Skyline owners here.  I think that will change over time (I hope) as the ownership of Skylines changes from being mostly 20 year old hoons to the more mature adult that a lot of us are!

hey good buddy thats really silly as skylines are a pretty big part of australian history (jim richards, mark skaiff, etc) cops should encourage people to drive them and build them so everyone can enjoy them and see them. around here its small enough that if we drive semi respectfully and stay away from residential areas we seem to be left alone. when we street race its late at night on a blocked off side way no one seems to care....

Because Skylines became quite cheap for a while they were predominantly owned by younger people and certain ethnic groups that were renowned for erratic driving! 😂 It’s probably settled down a bit now but in the past if you even drove passed a cop driving normally you were a very high probability of being pulled over.

There is a “hooning” law in here in Victoria where if you commit 3 hooning crimes (skids, drifting, extreme speeding, etc) the car you’re driving on the 3rd conviction gets crushed.  Regardless of whether it’s your car or not!  Imagine the 3rd conviction you were driving the bosses C63 and got pinged doing skids.  I’m sure he’d be stoked to see it go in the crusher……

    • I have been looking at some setting on the alarms for the Q60 and what buttons do and so and also been looking for details on the alarm in my V37 which is a standard issue with the car. settings like window roll up and a few others seem to not work at all. i cant seem to find exact info on V37 alarms so Q60 is all i can really go off i have not tried 400Z alarm settings or info yet so that will be next. any one got like a sheet of info on the alarm system in the V37 as all my documents are in japanese but i thought the system would basically be like standard through similar models? 
    • I had a fuel smell coming from the drivers rear and pulled the tank out to inspect where it was coming from, turns out the breather hose from the tank to the filler neck was perished. I’m going to Japan next week and I’ll grab it while I’m there  pulled the oil tank apart and started cleaning this crap out of it, some brake cleaner and rags got it looking new again 
    • Hmm. Was quite a few years ago now. I think I bought from a crowd in the US called CDT Audio. The speaker is the HD-6. The HD-6CF would have been the better option (based on T-S parameters), but they were discontinued in 4 ohm at that point in time. The HD-6 is a better driver in almost every other way (than the CF) - just not as good in IB. They still do the HD-6. They might even have a more suitable (for IB) option here.https://www.cdtaudio.com/cdtnew22/products/components/woofers/midwoofers/midwoofers.htm But, here's the rub. I was working in the US a lot back then, so I got them delivered to my US office and then just brought them back to OZ myself. I don't know if they will ship to OZ, and it probably wouldn't be great cost-wise anyway. As to results. They're driven direct off the rear channels of my headunit, because the headunit can be setup to run the rears as subs. So, not a lot of power being fed there. Nevertheless, there's no shortage of volume - the sub levels don't need or want to be boosted at all. The bass is definitely not what you would call "tight". It is definitely a bit delayed compared to a proper sub. But, with the great front soundstage and really good 6.5" woofers in the front doors, I'm getting most of the bass detail from the front and the rear is really only to extend the bottom end a bit. Works for what I'm doing. I mean - until recently you couldn't really hold a conversation in my car due to the fuel pump, and for many years I had tyres so noisy (Kumho KU36 at <50 tread depth) that I had to drive with earplugs anyway!
    • curious to know what drivers you chose and the results? quik mafs, says two 6.5s should roughly equate somewhere between a single 8" or 10" driver. i agree that IB is definitely the way to go in most cars imo.
    • S13 and R32 rear suspension geometry is horrible once you lower it (which everyone does). The camber & toe out ramp is very aggressive, hence it's common for the S13 boys/girls to use a S14 or S15 subframe as the geometry is light years ahead. I'm sure the same can be done on R32s, but I don't know anyone that has done that.
