Cya All....Goodbye....RedLineGTR


Recommended Posts

Well….think I’m going say “bye” to the forums, over the past couple of months I have been on the forums less and less…why?...just trying not to spend so much time on the computer :) work & study are the main reason and I have wasted too much time on the forums trying to contribute over the past couple of years with informative posts, photos of cruises etc & just trying to help new users etc. recently my account somehow got deleted/disappeared losing all my achieved messages, rating, threads, pm’s etc. Just starting up a new account is just a waste of time as all I had linked to my account is gone and it’s like your starting from scratch, after this long time as a contributing member.

In general I’m not happy with accounts going missing; not just mine other members in the Victoria section, as well as the whole Vic section somehow disappearing in the past and other events. The Victoria club which had been in the plans for ages had finally seen light after dragging on for months…close to a year, though it’s still getting organised etc, I don’t see it being so successful for the factor that most people I believe are just in it for them selves when suggesting ideas or options, not looking out for the paying members for the club. A lot of the committee members are committed to what they want to achieve but it is useless without the whole group being on the same wave length.

If you had the time to read my post & have met me before, I thank you for your time and the conversations had throughout all the cruises, meets, bbq’s.

Judge this post as you may, you may find it whiney and childish. But I don’t mind I’m just sick of putting effort into things that get erased easily, the negative attitude and selfish ways of some users.

Best of luck with the forums and the Victoria section.

See you on the forums in the future, if not then on the roads…

Thanks For Your Time. Cheers Rob

...we're back on the air!

I really need to check-in to "forum users anonymous"

*sigh* we are working on it Rob. If you wanna leave before you give us time to fix it, then so be it. I'm still trying to find your old user ID so that I can try to recover your old account.

As for the Vic club being organised... its been on the cards since 2002/2003 when me, dox and meggala thought it was worthwhile. Its been a long time coming and its finally falling into place, the guys in the comittee have put a lot of time and effort into it, and as we find more people who are willing to make that dedication and sacrifice of time we try to involve them as much as possible... eg the addition of bass junky, clarkey and scotsman into the organisational group.

The club is run by its members, and if there is a paying member who needs his opinion voiced, all they have to do is attend a monthly meeting and bring it up. We run a democratic club, not a dictatorship. If you don't want a certain committee member in the committee, then all you have to do is vote to throw them out.

One thing we don't need which dosen't help the club go forward is politics, bickering and cheap stabs... be proactive, and not reactive.

Take care Rob! you're a champ, dont let the forums get you down.. Everyone needs to take a break sometimes. btw, are you still gonna detail my car? :) we can go chaddy and perve on some hot euro chicks :) haha. See u around dude.

:D

    • Initially I thought having a pair of Recaro seats would be a big bonus, it turns out these do get a little uncomfortable on long journeys (my fault, not the seat). I had a look through the GSM Performance website at reclining seats and booked an appointment to visit their show room. I got the Recaro Sportster CS for the R34 from here, was very happy with the service received so of course a re-visit was in order. Unfortunately the two Corbeau seats I had chosen aren't on display but they had 4 other options available. Two seats dug into my back, one dug into my legs and the other was perfect. I also found out that Recaro seats use a larger bolt pattern so some adaption was required. Luckily GSM offer some universal adaptors that should solve this problem. I searched the interwebs for price comparisons and Corbeau themselves were the cheapest at £300 cheaper (for the pair). I asked GSM if they could price match, unfortunately they couldn't. I later received an email saying Corbeau would honour them the same discount, but the purchase was already made. I did however order the brackets from GSM, both arrived on the same day. I started with the passenger side seat, knowing this was going to be a little trial and error. There are 3 mounting holes at the front and 2 at the rear on these JURAN Racing seat rails.  With the adaptor brackets mounted, the allen cap bolts started to push into the seat, NOT GOOD!  The rear mounting holes lined up but there were issues at the front. The holes were 1/2 hole out, so the brackets got a tickle with the drill to modify the holes. The supplied bolts weren't going to be long enough and a spacer was needed to stop the adaptor bars from bending. A local fasteners company supplied be with some nylon spacers and longer bolts (M8x30, although these will be replaced with 35mm long shortly) A before and after I pre-drilled the front bracket before making a start on the driver's seat to save some time. And in no time at all that was in the car too. The all black seats have transformed the interior and these are MUCH more comfortable. The only downside with the new Corbeau seats is I sit a little higher, but I'll happily accept that over discomfort. The Youtube video can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wPyttKPktXA
    • All 3 I guess. The car came with the JASI Aero 4 door Type R Full Kit unpainted so this was one thing at the top of my list to complete then I noticed there were body panels parts for this kit so i picked them up along with some black mesh to fill in the front bumper and front side air vents. car is at a paint and body shop atm completing this work. Next I will be addressing the internal bells and whistles, great summer project I can do with the kids.  full interior removal - ,boys car sound deadening - pads and spray ,boys stereo, sound, lighting - Big 3, GTT or bigger alternator ,kids head lining - dye black add star lighting mod ,daughter. That's it for the next 5-6 months. I have some motor maintenance  work i have to plan out. oil filter relocation, gaskets, mounts. beyond that, mind is starting to turn over if i can use a DET intake plenum, block off turbo ports & pipe in a air intake.
