Hey all

I've just moved to Manly from Newcastle & want to know who are now my 'local' skyline neighbours for the area.

A northern beaches Skyline owners casual cruze / meeting would be cool.

Anyway I've only seen 1! skyline in manly... actually in an open garage. It's a white r32 GR with plates AOA-???, if thats your car I live just around the corner buddy! hah. Owww & I seen a stock looking grey r33 at warringah shoping centre, that's bout it tho :D

Owww also I’d like to know a good place to ‘test’ out our cars. Back in Newy there was a good industrial road very wide & long & was good fun to give a few boots up & down vs mates.

Cya!

Welcome to the Northside.

Firstly, watch out for our notorious friday night sessions which tend to happen late on friday evenings and usually involve a cruise from Chatswood down to palmbeach stopping along the way at newport for pizza.

Regarding "testing" your car, be careful. We have a good rep with the local constabulary down that way and we certainly dont encourage any behaviour that may damage this reputation.

There are many of us in the area though so your best option is to get along to the next friday night cruise and meet the locals.

Yeah, I'm not a hoon, but I do like to have fun in my car every now & then away from houses & the public eye 'IE, industrial estates'. You cant speed in Syd 'in general' anyway, too many cars & camera's.

Sounds good :D More details about where, when, etc. Man I love cruising at night time, the air is so cold & the horsepower is so high :D

Im near dee why..

I live near an industrial area actually, et me know when your gonna go testing so I can pull up a chair and count the highway patrol cars that rock up.. hehe.. Its amazing how fast they rock up.. I go bed in my brakes then hide the car before the rock up and thats just a few 80 to 0 stops.

Hey Ben,

yeah i'm alright dude... not too long until I can maybe get my licence back - so hopefully it all goes OK! Gotta get a few things done on my car before then though, need a service and a big wash and polish - hehe.

I'm in frenchs forest :rant:, there's also a guy who parks a series 1.5 black r33 across the road from me too, although i've yet to see the driver, and there's a r32 gtr in my street as well.. i'm up for a cruise sometime too... just waiting to get my car engineered first before i drive in a large group, want to be 100% certain i won't get a defect, and not have to stress the whole time that i'll get done :D

U guys should all come to the Old Pac run on fri the 10th. It not a chatswood to the beaches cruise, but there should be a good turn out, good chance to meet everyone.

As much as I'd love to go on the cruze tonight it is a bit out of the way... Looking forward for a northern beaches one. Someone should organise one & start one in events?? :)

    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.
    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
