Ok sorry....

The MSCIII was an exciting day for me as i just got my new very yellow skyline and was very prowd to see 3000 photos of it featuring on many different fourms... The first night i had it 13 people took photos and one guys pointed out that i didnt have lock nuts on my $3500 rims. Very next day this problem was solved by buying 3 packs of lock nuts.... Cant get enough lock nuts. But the pinnicle of excitement was driving in amonst the best skylines in Brisbane and the coasts to a lovely BBQ by the lake. The car was in standard form for the cruise as it was my first day off with the car. To this day i have now modified almost everything. Having the car now for 2 months and only driving it for a week, I can safelly say it is now fast. On my way to autobarn right now to pick up my last bits for this series of mods. To cheer me up this morning i see to my delight the videos highlly requested by some pest "COL-GTSX" (me) hae been posted. I downloaded all of them and had my skyline fix. Very happy to see the quality of skylines that attended as i didnt get to see them all. I hope that this cruise was enjoyed by all as i had a ball. Thank you knore for your work. Next cruise i promise i will take my cameras and everyone can bug me for footage and photos. As for "strutto" thanks for beating me out of my 4 word morning. The reason is i went to play golf yesterday and now im a stiff as a board and in wuite a bit of pain (sunburn and very very sore back) but we did have some fun with the golf buggies... Who would have thought they do burnouts on wet grass.... LOL Anyways thanks man...

Thank you to all who attended it was fantastic.

Cheers Colin

The next massive skyline cruise will be held around the middle of the year so it's cooler for us and our cars when doing massive drives :)

Depending on where we go as to how many k's the cruises are. I think this one was around the 200k mark.

    • Great work! Thanks for documenting the process.
    • How would you even adjust the clutch if the pedal already has the correct free play? The operating cylinder has no adjustment in mounting position or rod length. On pull style clutches there is also no ability to adjust the bearing carrier. Push type I can see how adjusting the carrier height makes it all work.   If this is the twin plate clutch did you verify that your friction disks were oriented correctly? It's not mentioned in the directions at all you just have to notice that one side the friction disks have a part number on the hub fingers and a subtle coning to those fingers. Another thing that I noticed was if you put the friction disks in backwards the pressure plate fingers will not be even and flat when the clutch is installed.
    • yeah, mechanically, it is probably do-able, off the top of my head, there would be the transfer case, which I believe will bolt up to the rear of the RWD transmission, the shorter rear tail shaft. A front drive shaft, front diff, engine upper sump, front drive shafts, front hubs and front AWD struts (they are shaped around the front drive shafts), LCAs (at the very least from the front suspension) oil cooler.  You might want the rear diff from an AWD too, so you can be certain the front and rear diff rations are identical.  Who knows what brackets and mounts you might need.  So a whole doner car might be the best option if you need to maintain RHD. Then actually making it work, that would be a whole different story.
