A great day and a good learning experience for any Skyline owner. Find out your limitations and those of your car in a controlled environment. Also, letting us all loose was like a free grab in a candy store!! Highly recommended and maybe something the SAU-Qld would be interested in??

Touche! I was sooooo glad I could fix it on the spot and drive home. Wife was staring daggers at me. That is, once she noticed I had stopped..... just sitting there reading a book while her brave husband did battle on the ashphalt!

I really like this photo Gordo

To me it is a whimsical esoteric statement on mans inhumanity to man!

The juxtaposition of the metal and green light versus the blue sky, shows how nature in all it's glory has succumbed to the intervention of the industrial age.

You know, I was thinking nearly exactly the same thing. I was subtely hinting that the green of the stop light represents man's need to move forward through the use of industry and modern tools - and in fact the "traffic light" some may use as a valid icon to represent this age. "stop"... "go" .. just which are we in this daily battle?

The clounds in the background symobolise the fear and unrest that this struggle can cause whilst trying to move humanity forward, against the backdrop of nature and the blue sky of hope and opportunity.

(that and it was a random photo)

Man, why didn't we both get a bachelor of arts and sit around doing nothing all day!?

Hey guys, glad you had a top time at track day. Go a bit easy on me and my dinged front guard. I've got a replacement but it is black and needs painting. I will get to it once the engine is running properly. I have now organised 3 track days at QR an driven 7 laps in total. (grumble).

Next Track Day is booked for the morning of May 9, I already have 20 something people with reserved spots. If your keen to join us send me a PM with your email address.

As I have always said, You can never have enough Skylines at a Track Day !!!

      Cold Start Rattling Sound

      By silviaz · Posted

      So my rb is finally having more problems. 2 issues here but I'm here to just to mainly discuss the rattle noise. The other day when I turned on the car and when I take off or go in reverse, there is a temporary rattle noise but when I cruise, boost, idle it's completely fine no rattle whatsoever. I've also done all the servicing, all the health checks you can think of and it all passes with flying colours.  Also the rattle doesn't increase with rpm, it's only at a very certain rpm (slightly above 1,100rpm). My other car also has the same issue every once in a while. Changed the oil recently, no difference. Even took my oil to a lab and everything was quite good surprisingly. Timing belt changed a while ago to. Had the car on the hoist and can't see anything obvious. Tightened a couple of nuts on the exhaust manifold a couple of months ago. 2 different clips uploaded. One of them was supposed to another issue but I'll save that for another time. Thought I'd see if anyone had this same noise before, it's a bit hard to diagnose while it's intermittent. If I'm not mistaken, I think I had this a while back but can't remember exactly. I was thinking if it's doable I'll get someone to hold the throttle cable at 1,100rpm and hopefully it replicates the sound. rb25det rattle only.mp4 rb25det slow start + rattle.mp4

      Yeah I’ll know when I take it for a test drive and I’ll double check the turbos as well when I have a look at it again.  Just thought maybe they might have done something in the head cause it looks like they’ve taken off the rocker covers 🤔 Thanks for your info!

      As Duncan mentioned it's likely a remapped ECU, like the the one listed in the link I post earlier:  https://minkara.carview.co.jp/userid/444260/car/444612/2099320/parts.aspx He quoted 444PS with an unopened engine and twin GT2510s @ 1.1bar boost... sounds about right?
