hey guys,

Im just saying hello and would like to introduce myself.

My name is ivan and i have just recently purchased the car i have been dreaming about since high school! My 1996 skyline r33 GTR V-spec. although only a few days old now, i think the car is absolutly fantastic and i think alot of people who think they r just jap crap dont no wot the r missing out on!

Ne way, ive wanted to join a car club, but i wanted it have people who would understand my car as well and help me with it. although i dont understand so well the technical side of cars, im slowly learning and begining to understand.

Hope we can one day all meet and exchange ideas/experiances.

reguards,

Ivan

Depends on where you guys live - bewst option is to look in your relevant state and keep an eye out for upcoming cruises etc.

i think the next major cruise is the Great Ocean Road cruise which i think is in feb next year....dont quote me on it...but early next year i beleive.

Just a note - the SAU Vic Great Ocean Road Cruise will be open to members ONLY.

Welcome aboard Ivan. Sounds like u are living the dream of half the people on here owning what sounds to be a schmik 33 GTR!! Congrats!

P.S. Man not that i really care (being in NSW) but whats is the deal with that last post regarding the Ocean Rd cruise being MEMBERS ONLY...... :D:)

I'm sorry but is that a kind of image you want to set for SAU.....start differentiating bewteen fello members....PFFT i say to that. It's a public road and we should embrace members as equals....who in gods name gives someone the right to determine who can & CANNOT participate in an event. Crusies are about fellow skyline owners getting together and enjoying the experience, NOT be- littling / excluding Non Members!!!!

Understandably Financial members can be looked upon differently when certain ' benefits' are available, but not for a goddamn F&*King cruise!!!!!

Im sorry but this is a joke!!!

Way to go to embrace the SAU 'Community' :)

Dezz mentioned earlier the Great Ocean Road Cruise to be held in Feb.

The above mentioned cruise is an official club cruise organised by SAU Vic Committee - and as such will be only open to financial members of Skylines Australia Victoria.

Plus, CAMS Insurance will only cover the club (public liability) if all drivers are members.

lol seems fair to me. drastically reduces the chances of dick heads tagging along and ruining the cruise by being absolute wankers, and showing us what their car can do, which is no more than the slowest of cars on the cruise can do anyway.

    • 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.
    • Bloody apprentices! 🙄
    • Not sure yet.  Was considering speedtek because it was rated to 800hp, but when I did some research about him I don't think I will go for that🤣 So maybe giken gear set, but I'm afraid it won't be strong enough🙄
