OKay guys wherever we decide to meet i am up for helping out and ill turn up with the other wagga guys, someone metioned before about music or a dj, if you want one let me know as a mate of mine has a business which i often help out djing so im sure i can borrow a set of gear for a day or night just let me know.

Cheers adam

Mid Feb would be good - hopefully will cool a bit.

Hey Trident, I had a walk around LH camp the other day, that place would be great for a large scale meet later in the year. There would be parking for as many cars as you could think of, and being so isolated it offers a degree of saftey. Maybe a Autumn/Spring meet? Good time of year for some mountain cruises......

I like your thinking, if we get enough ppl interested, it would be ideal for a weekend meet/party.

How about we post onto the NSW/ACT/VIC forums once we establish a date... I think we need a show of hands (maybe a poll?) of who would really come... and would pay for it of course.

I kinda know the current owners, and I don't think it would be very expensive if we booked the whole place out. There would be bed accomadation for 60 - 80 people, plus BULK floor space - not to mention camping if anyone is THAT crazy.

So, lets get the ball rolling, April (even easter) would be a great time, Autumn is very nice up there as you know.

Anyhow LH camp = :rave:

I've also got some DJ stuff if we need it.

Yeah sounds kewl, but lets have a meeting about it with the rest of the 'local gang' and sort it out. If you could bring some accom. prices to the table so we know what we are looking at, that would be a start.

I reckon a meeting at the Shanty pub on Sunday the 30th Jan start at 1200 midday. I'll talk to Mick Neason and see if we can get a corner of the dining room.

If anybody here reckons otherwise please speak out. If I don't hear any different within a week [11th next Friday], I'll go ahead with it.

Then I reckon we'll be able to really organise a weekend bash.

We have to think about food, drink, entertainment, and accommodation.

Probably need deposits from those attending so we know exactly who's coming.

And, we are all different, all ages, and ethnic backgrounds etc etc etc so whatever we do we have to do for everyone. We all have or admire Skylines though..................

u don't even know wot yr gettin' into yet...lol

Up there for enthusiasm leech, good to see.........

lol well as long as its not to like melbourne and the roads arnt dirt/ huge pot holes i am fine for it (as long as some of my fellow canberra/struggle town peoples come with :D)

Some of the roads are a little ordinary, but you can drive around the big potholes :D

I'll make some calls and get the prices. Deposits a must, and I know a few people who would go to the meeting, me included :(

Definatley BYO though, its MUCH easier.

Tri n Co,

Alan the Vic vice pres is in town at the Nats. We had organised a dinner in Braddon and had 25 or so locals attend so we could Drink, eat and watch the cars cruise the strip. We mentioned this thread. Al appears keen, so are we (ACT), so we may be able to count on his support for the Vic's.

Nothing of real substance just general chit chat. So don't stop planning and organising. Just to let you know that momentum is gaining.

Thanks for your post. Plz let us know how the meet goes and if you want a Canberra voice/rep.

Edit: A Thought! If considering something like the Easter Weekend then maybe we should be thinking of our Bro's in SA. Depends on how big you want this shindig? Cubes is likely to be your man in SA. Again - Just a thought.

Yeah, We will meet up and have a look at how many people and stuff we can cater for... It could be bigger than ben hur. I missed the dinner but was in Braddon Saturday and met a few ACT guys, they seemed pretty keen to do something.

I'd guess if we could get 50 or so (which shouldn't be that hard) we could make it cost effective. We could cater, even do a throw around for charity... Tsunami maybe??? Get the media in? Around here most days are slow news, so that shouldn't be too hard. Also would be good to get some positive press, and exposure for the club.

    • 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?
    • 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.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.
