Hello

We would like to thank everyone who emailed and replied in the forums for our formal ride.

As some people may have forgot, I was looking for 4-5 skylines to drop us off at our end of year formal, what better way to arrive ey.

Bass Junky, Adzmax, NismoR34 and Paulr33 took the offer and drove us to the formal.

I can safely say that we are still smiling from last night's event. :(:)

As this was our first experience of a turbo and a skyline you have left one hell of an impression, what better way to experience it for the first time than in Peter's highly modified beast.

We are still craving for more and my friends are trying to come up with an excuse where we may have another ride.

The skylines were the talk of the formal as every car was an old limo and boy did people envy us haha.

Also thanks goes out to GTIARR, Leewah and Golgo for offering their rides but due to external factors were unable to attend.

NismoR34 if you wouldnt mind sending or uploading the pictures you took as I plan on professionally printing and framing the beach scene.

Thanks again to the people who attended and the SAU forum which made this possible.

You guys rock!

More pictures can be found here.

If you want the original size of the picture please email or PM me.

Some pictures may be blurry due to the fast acceleration from Bass Junky's R34 :P

I also have two video's but will only post once i get a confirmation from Bass Junky

Thats enough talk out of me, now to show some pics :D

Thanks all

- Patrick

good stuff mate, great idea, somethin different from the limo's, and what a way to be different. would have been awesome

well done to all the boys that offered their cars. I would love to have a car that people would want in somethin like that.

haha, the video's arent anything spectacular and are becoming overated because you cant see it :P

The video's are nothing illegal, just some take-off's from lights and my camera can’t record sound so nothing special.

I'll wait till Boost Junky replies in this thread if i should bother uploading.

Another thanks to Paul for having enough space for three people in the car.

Formal wasn’t that great, apart from our physics teacher (Romanian with a large beard) popping some moves on the dance floor.

After the formal had finished, my friends agreed that they would gladly pay $60 each to keep on driving rather than the formal dinner.

So if you four, Bass Junky, Adzmax, NismoR34 and Paulr33, are ever free we will be waiting eagerly to see those 4 round lights :)

Thanks

As requested I have uploaded the video's but dont expect them to be good.

Video 1:

Bass Junky and AdzMax were next to each other

Video 2

Bass Junky and AdzMax leaving lights

Nothing great but at least something.

Enjoy

Thanks

EDIT - R31Nismoid - PM if issues

Yeh Bass I did see you wave and waved back. Knew it was you because of the Nismo(right?) kit.

About "volvo", when we had the stagea meet in Melbourne, I told the other guys that I had debaged my car (removed Stagea/RSFOUR badges) and they then asked "why the hell would you do that, now even more people will call you a volvo?". Well, as long as only the people that I want to know about my car do, and the general public dont, I can live with that. (confusing sentance)

Though, I still find many many/most import drivers are oblivious to me.

Ill keep myself updated on the SAU VIC events and make sure ill attend the next BBQ/Meet. There is some Christmas BBQ isnt there? Ill arrange to become a member this week and send off all my stuff.

    • 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?
