Thanks guys.  Have you sent your entry forms in yet?

Entry Forms? HA!

i bet the quality of cars will far surpass mine. i'll bring it with me on the day, but i dont think its quite up to scratch for something of this calibre. (or...scratched too much!)

It's not autosalon. This is supposed to be an event for everybody. We will be giving away small prizes to heaps of people on the day just for coming.

The hope is that we will get a big range of skylines there for everyone to see the full range. It's a good excuse to give your car a big polish too, just to see how good you can get it looking.

Whilst it's a reasonable drive from f***ing freezing Can't-berra to Tumbi Umbi,providing my dash arrives back in time to fit it to the car,I'm soooo there! Entry form going in tomorrow...$10 + lanyards? BARGAIN!

Any SAU ACT'ers wanna PM me re:doing the drive up?

Well,I'm up for "company" for the cruise. Although,that's all it'll be-a cruise. My car gets enough unwanted attention as is;many of us may be really asking for it if we're hooking along. Then again,safety in numbers?!? And [(d a n n y )],where's Thornleigh on Sydney's maps? T'would be good to pick up even more on the run up to The Entrance...

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
