Help the swede(s)... umm :) [guide]


Recommended Posts

Hello everyone at skylinesaustralia.com :P

I'm a 21 year old guy (philip) from Stockholm, Sweden - home of GiS and Ghostrider.

Anyway - I'm going to Sydney (and hopefully a lot of other places around australia)

and figured, since I've grew to become one of Zatzy.com´s

"filmographers", I might bring my camera to check out what's

going on downunder...

So what's up with this thread then... ?

Well, Since I basicly don't know anyone that's connected to legal

(or illegal for that matter) streetracing/racing @ strip I ended up

here - asking for your help.

If you know of any car fairs, shows, cruises, races etc please

send me a PM. It'd be fun to show off some skylines, as there's only

about 5 or 6 of them in Sweden.

Zatzy.com sports 11 000 members, most of which love streetracing

and modified/tuned cars more than anything else.

So if you own, or know, cars that you think might be of interest

for me to film please send me a PM - preferably adding a link or

pictures of the car(s) ...

I'll touch down in Sydney January 27th and stick around Australia

for about ~100 days - till the middle of may anyway.

All answers, mails, ICQ messages, PM's are greatly apreciated :wavey:

If you feel like checking out some of my previous footage follow

the links below... you'll need divX 5.02 (or later) to see them.

i reckon we should do an SAU festival :P

I'll be in Sydney - starting January 27th. Not sure how long I'll stay

in Sydney though, but probably for a couple of weeks... Then I'm

off to.... um... somewhere else :(

Oh, I'd really like to hear some opinions on my flicks... at least

this one... >>

It's nice......That burnout comp looks pretty dangerous!!

You have some sweet cars in Sweden. Good to see a GTi-R in there......

Dangerous in what way? There are concrete "cops" in front of the cars

to prevent them from (eventually) running into the crowd...

The event was sponsored by the store, it's a chain called MDS...

Some of their democars are listed below... :(

First price was a set of new M/T Slicks... :)

The Yellow EVO6 in the Fc&Fs-movie's the worlds fastest (measured)

EVO6, it's running 1/4 @ 10.89s - 214.3 km/h...

It's been in Max Power...blablabla... yadda yadda :)

I'm thinking of filming it this summer if i grow thin on material from Oz...

aaaaahhh.....I couldn't see the concrete.......

can't blame you, it was hard enough to see the cars, standing right next to them... :)

Nice holes in the ground afterwards too... molten pits of asphalt :uh-huh:

So, did you like the Fc&Fs (fast cars & furious sound fair) movie?

Rating? 1-10... ? :(

Hey, that sounds nice :burnout:  

How many cars'll show up?  

Where's it at?

etc...? =)

Somewhere in New South Wales, No exact date or location set yet as we're still organising it! Should have quite a few cars along....

Last July we had a big BBQ and had this many cars turn up (see picture below) But now we have like twice the amount of members so it should be nice and big....

I think I might be able to join in if I could tag along (preferably with you since you seem to be in charge, and have the know-how)

edit: Lovely pics btw... seems like nice cars and a real sweet spot =)

always picking on the little bloke

MULL, if you were to come to Sydney one day earlier (26th Jan) we can take you to the Wollongong cruise. I promise you it's worth changing your arrival day for. Plenty of cars of all walks of life go there to meet each Sunday of the Summer but especially on this weekend as it's a holiday weekend. anyway, hope you enjoy your trip to Aus and find what you are looking for

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • 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?
