I agree compleatly with Gus, we should get together to welcome OZR32GTR (and myself as well).

I meet Andrew (Superfly Skyline) on Monday, and would like to meet a few more of you. It would be nice to have some friends who don't think that a skyline is just a car!

Does anyone have some suggestions as to where, when and what?

My car spends most of its time sitting in the driveway at home or in the carpark at woden and i'm sure it gets very bored with that, so lets organise something.

ohh boo ya, i knew someone would listen to me soon enough!

ohh and please, call me Gus or Angus :cheers:

Edit: maybe soimething along the lines of another canberra SAU photoshoot, meet on a sunday again, take piccy's FIRST (means we'll have all people there) and then head off for a barbie and more piccies. i know this means that the sun wont be the best, but at least everyone will be there for the photo's and we wont have people leaving (for whatever reason that is)

so i guess this leaves a discussion for dates and times etc

my suggestion would be probly Sunday 17, or somewhere around that date??

I'd love to come to one of these meets, but only being an L plater driver and unable to drive my car till late november i'd have to drag one of my middle aged parents along as well if i wanted to bring my car :)

Nothing wrong with middle aged, not all of us are still wearing 'kimbies'....lol, Skylines appeal to everyone [grey power].

On another note, I'll be in Canberra on Sunday 17th October anyway so thats convenient for me.

Yes they do appeal to everyone. I pulled into my local shops the other day and was checking out a grey 34 there, next minute a lady and her son jump out. I was shocked. She then came over and started to chat to me about our cars, was a nice surprise.

I'll be around on the 17th but I'm oncall so not sure if thats good.

Good to get some responses, I work pretty much every weekend, but only till 4 on Sundays and the days are getting longer as we speak so i thought I would throw out the idea of meeting on a sunday evening. We could meet, drive somewhere, throw a football, kick a soccerball or what ever, BBQ some dinner and crusie back with everyones hot plate lights burning.

What do you all think?

and if someone has a decent camera i could get a better pic of my car for my avatar because this one works in theory but the quality is pretty poor.

True, Skylines appeal to all people. My parents love driving my car, and i'm shocked to say are more leadfooted and reckless on the roads than me! My mum had a traffic light drag race the other day. I was in shock. :P I should be in, as long as i'm not working.

the sunday night idea sounds good, maybe on a saturday night insted. but i also think that i'd prefer to wait until summer for a nightime BBQ so maybe a resturant like the APK night we held for tosh awhile back??? i think we save the night BBQ for maybe a christmas time cruise, and we also make it a friday night so we can BBQ at like 6ish, then cruise through braddon or sumthin, i rekon 20+ lines would kill through braddon!

    • Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga
    • yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
    • Quite right, if you make it to that pension you deserve every cent
    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
