We have tried to contact the owners of SkylinesAustralia to get a link to our site/club hosted, but as yet - no luck/reply. Hence this thread.

We are promoting a new site and spin on the whole Japanese car scene-thing in Australia. Please give me any feedback on the site and any suggestions; preferably, register on the site and keep contributing!

We have the R32 and now R33 factory service manuals, and will have the R34 within days, have the 350Z, 300ZX, S13,S14,S15 and RNN14 GTIR factory service manuals also.

Drift videos, events, gallerys - many cars (not just skyline, we have a tech section for each major japanese performance car/model).

Check it out anyway!

** the skyline section has only been added recently, the flyer for the site is below but it doesnt list 'R31, R32, R33, R34, R35/G35' Skyline when it should. Sorry but it will be updated soon :P The site already has skyline forums and plenty of information.

I'm a bit patriotic to SAU... so I won't be contributing. On the otherhand I do go to GTRCanada/GTP Forums and lurk in GTROCUK to keep an eye on what they're doing... but as far as other AU sites... nothing except Nissansilvia.com (only coz of Ken - gday mate).

Btw, whats a "R35"? Is that some new car Nissan released that no one knows about?

I can see what they're trying to do... get some kind of uniformity going in the AU Import scene... and good on them. But I can't see all the top people from the various "brand name" websites (ie: SAU, Nissansilvia, Ozrotary etc) signing up with as much enthusiasm as they have for their respective websites.

Still, I hope Carscene can carve it's own niche.

Btw, if there are any blatant errors I might come on and straighten things out :(... Evo_Lee might help out too if he's feeling overly generous :rofl:;)

turbocharging6: I've browsed your site a bit, and you may want to let that guy "Troe666" that he's way off about the next Skyline... way off. He's just spreading the same rumours from the last 4 years even though theres heaps of evidence (that he obviously hasn't seen) to prove otherwise...

Either that or just have heaps of wrong info on your site just like r35gtr.com :(

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.

      The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.

      Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?

      R34 25GT Engine Light 21

      By CF.Panda · Posted

      By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol

      No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
