exactly what sort of club do u mean Prank

an Aus version of SDU or just a car club.

i have all the paper needed to register the name, become an incorperated association and become CAMS affiliated. The only thing is it will be WA based, if you want a national club. if we go with apile of state branches then i'm ready to ahead with the WA one.

Guys, my two cents says use the SDU AU name. It kind of has a nice ring to it. If we do this though, are we in any way obligated to team up with SDU?

Now, before some of you start ranting about how they upset your poor little hearts, think about it. The benifits of associating ourselves with them will more than likely outweigh the downside to it. They have valuable experience in areas we will need & if you completely cut off communication with them you loose that asset.

I'm not saying that we should be under them either. Rather start off the club from day one with the goal to be their equal one day.

Learn from their mistakes, use them as a model, and exceed their establishment. :twisted:

i dont think we should be affiliated with nz boys..

bah to them and there experience.. look at how theyve turned out :(..

i dont know if jumping straight into national is a good idea... should concentrate on getting a state group together first but keep the forums for nation wide..

Urmine, this is exactly why we should look at their experience. Don't let your emotions cloud your judjement my friend. Learn from their mistakes and turn them into something positive.

I guarantee you, working with someone is always beneficial to you instead of working against them.

Again, let me state, I'm not saying let them be our pimps but our equals. For God's sake we have the numbers!

Guys,

Can we try to keep this forum serious?

I think a state-wide club is a good idea, perhaps we should run the clubs independant of each other with the same name?? National would be fantastic, I am not fussed on a name, because it is only a name... who cares what its called so long as everybody in the club is enjoying themselves.

Who here is coming to the cruise on the 5th? we can all have a chat about it then...

Skyzerr33,

Can you email me re. CAMS affiliation?

Thanks.

Christian

Yes Obi 1 Kanobi. :lol:[/quote:733f285b31] LMAO!!!

Well I'm undecided. I kinda like the idea of keeping the SDU name though, or even SDU-AU as onarun said. We could ask them if we could use the name, but still start from scratch, ie not be affiliated with them in any way.

As for separate states, or national, well I'm not sure what would happen with us ACT ppl if it were divided into separate states. Would we just join the NSW ppl? I don't know if we'd have the numbers to have our own ACT section.

Guest MrTea

I dont think we should really have to loose our affliation with SDU. Becuase it was them who really started SDU up. I think we could still be a seperate Club and still remain affiliated with SDU. Without SDU we would be just a bunch of misfits with no place to cruise.

but on another note i think those new zealanders should take out down under :( there not down under, unless it involves there sheep.

im sorry mrTea but i dont really agree with u there buddy.. sdu has done nothing for us other than create a forum which we were all part of and then basically kick us out..

im sorry i know alot of u feel like u have a major tie with sdu.. but really they did nothing for us.. we have been crusing here in syd for quite a while with no help from sdu.. its just gonna take a a fair bit of work from a couple of ppl in each state to create a state by state club with a national website/forum??? what u gusy think?

i think that would be the best solution.. then every state will be able to head in the direction they please..

    • Stock ECU (or more accurately stock tune) absolutely refuses to go over 10psi and behaves like you have seen. The Nistune is the same if it is the stock tune. If the Nistune chip has been tuned, the resulting tune could be literally anything for any combination of parts. The Nistune just makes the stock ECU Tunable.
    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way.
