MRE, sorry about flicking a rock up on ya windscreen....

Hmm, i ended the day with 2 nice stone chips, one from MRe and one from Nizman i beleive...

also, the tip tronic is a bit farked now.... dont think it can quite handle the beating i gave it.

other than that.. good cruise, would have been good if everyone was going a bit harder (like mad mt 2) but hey. Also, the straight me and nizman found would have to be the best bit of road ever... hmm,, may go for a quick cruise there now :(

My best part was chasing down a Silver 33 and sitting behind him till my right indicator lens popped out.

:lol: yep that was me you were chasing, good run we had there until your indicator wanted out

That was a great way to finsih up owning a skyline, I will always remember Mad Mtn 2 as being the fastest and most challenging of them all. Thanks Dave for the use of the BBBQ and other implements.

Stone Chips were a problem for a few of us I'd say on this run, I have 2 new crows feet on the windscreen from a certain Scoob B4, some of those roads around northern NSW are a little to narrow and crappy for skylines dare I say :(

And to who ever I drove back to the coast with from Dave's in the white R33.....Real nice drivin!!:):(:) :) :D

Pics to come...

yes, your always welcome to use my implements karl.

The guy in the white 33 was sky|ine (ross). Doesnt come on the forums tho I dont think, only IRC.

sounds like you had some fun driving home too then.

also, msn me, i have worked out what boost im getting now. 10psi over 5k :(

good to hear guys

i will definatly be there for the next one

nizman u still got yah silver 33 i thought you were gunna sell it like 6-7 months ago

and compliments to daves driving..its not easy to get a skyline airborn at 210k's and not break anything :(

Thanks for the day guys...

pitty theres only a few straights, next time I'll have some sticky tyres. Just couldn't get traction until high up in 3rd. Turbo got hot enough to start cooking my abs. maybe I should run 15psi next time.

Japtaxi, your nutz :( I backed off cause I was getting airborne and you still have the loud pedal down! Nutter :)

Yeah Marko, still got it, I decided to wait until I had saved half the deposit on a house and then sell, and this time has come, that was my last cruise, I 've got new tyres, new brakes, 6 months rego & a road worthy. The car will be in Brisbane papers for the next four weeks.

Won't be advertising it here as everyone on the forums should know that 25K is too much for a auto GTSTR33.

was in a subaru b4.. true rally style. If I had the r33, i would have probably hit it at over 260km/h! Also, im sure my car would fall into peices if I try... which is what im going to be doing tomorrow :)

yep that was me you were chasing, good run we had there until your indicator wanted out

that was fun. Man I can kick myself for it pooping out on me. I had a whole lot rpms to go. I used you to make sure the way was clear :( that is why I eased off a bit. But that straight was the best. My baby wanted to take off so many times.

How about an impromptu meeting this saterday everyone

Well I'm annoyed i couldn't make it, but i wouldn't want to be pushing my car that hard at this stage anyway. Next time I think we should go for a sunday, maybe in the new year holidays or something as this time of year there's always things coming up.

Once I get my car back on the road (well, driving properly anyway) i'm gunna go do some scouting around mt glorious and nebo and look at getting another mt cruise going.

Hey guys...I don't get on the computer much anymore...so i'd like to meet some of u so i can find out whats happening...I'm coming to brissy on friday night...If any of u guys or girls can ring me then i'd love to meet up with u and chat....Hope to hear from u..Ph No. 0427734255

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
