I still drop by when they make me for work, and am based just north of Goulburn these days so ACT is the big smoke for me....

I was up Crookwell -  Laggan way just the other day.....bought a log splitter off a fella up there.  If only I'd know.....coulda called in :)

what sort of person lives in Laggan and doesn't need a log splitter!

I'm not that far up and  more easter (other side of the cookbundoons). In fact, just about half way between Wakefield and Pheasant's Brush....coincidence I'm sure...

I moved to the ACT area around a year ago from Adelaide.

The Adelaide scene had pretty much died off before I moved, and everything seemed to be younger people that would meet-up/talk via Facebook.  Seems to be similar here.  I guess I'm kinda old and boring these days, though.

Only 13.5 years of Skyline ownership (and sau.com.au membership) for me :)

I'm more west of the ACT, but have been known to visit for that special occasion :)

I did do a few drives with you guys and would have done more but it all died out.

And jrm...I'm old, probably boring as well.  But I'm still a legend in my own mind [to quote D. Harry, no, not the good looking singer, the other one with the .44 magnum :) )

We were doing stagea meets about once a month all the way up till a few years ago when we started joining in on the 'boosters' meets which had a pretty good group of teenagers and adults. We did try and get a skylines group together a few times, but seems the demographic had changed for the worse so i stopped inviting and associating with them.

Boosters meets are still going and still have the same mindset and enthusiasts.

      r34's love to squeal

      By Nizzy_R34 · Posted

      just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.

      My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.

      To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?

      So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
