I'll pop down too! Dunno if I'll join in the cruise though, leaving early Friday morning for Easter break!

Double post sorry.

You might've spotted my mate driving his dad's car? His dad just sold his Porsche GT3 and picked up a grey R35 on that day haha.. could've been them? He looks young, just off his P's I think?

Hey mate, what exactly needs to be done to fit this to a GTR? I thought the N4 loom fits GTR? Cheers

Anyone that needs friends to tell them not to start a riot and trashing things is already a waste to society anyway.

Sorry for the delay everyone, found myself at Chadstone VIP night for 5 hours tonight so only just got home to upload.

Those pics turned out great Jamie! Very nice for hand held actually! I'll try to get my pictures up some time tonight.

Good to meet everyone tonight, my first meet with SAU peeps. Sorry I had trouble remembering everyones names.. no doubt I'll be asking everyone their names in the future too until I can remember faces!

I'll be heading in a tad early with a mate too, was hoping to get washed before all you guys cramp my space

I went in to diagnostic mode just to have a play around because I was curious. After doing so, I found that I had lost my exhaust and intake temp display as well! As mentioned above, the sensors need to be reactivated so for something such as exhaust temp you'll need to be in diagnostic mode and drive until the exhaust temp hits the minimum (400 degrees) before the sensor will be showing as active again. Below is a picture of the screen after I went in to it and some functions weren't showing up as working. You'll need to enter diagnostic mode with the engine on to try to reactivate these things. This is a bit difficult to get the timing right because step 3 of the instructions is to go from OFF to ON while holding the joystick in. To get in to diagnostic mode with the engine on, I had to time it right so that I pressed the joystick in during the time the car cranked over (and the power to the screen cuts out). Hope you understand what I mean.. So once the engine is on and you're in diagnostic mode still, you can start reactivating the greyed out sensors. Eg. Speed, exhaust, F-torque, F/R and L/R G forces, brake.. And done! Usually, a quick drive down the street will bring the exhaust temp high enough to get to 400 degrees. I thought I could do it by sitting in my driveway holding the revs up but it was taking too long haha. I hope this helps in some way! Oh and also as mentioned, those sensors don't get disabled during compliance. My guess is someone went in to diagnostics to play around and couldn't figure out how to reactivate it.

I think he was saying that for last night because I missed out on the meet at Thomastown.. But there is a apple peel carwash meet on Tuesday

Damn haha just checked back on this thread.. guessing I'm too late for that too! Sorry dude, thanks for the invite though! See you there on Tuesday?

Sorry guys, long day at work and I just got home. It'll take me another 10 mins before I leave home and 10 mins to get there haha, I'm pretty sure you will have left for your next destination after an hour of being at the meet spot.

He's king of the road, so why not? hahah

It's actually a Hardly Normal now according to Google street view haha. It's directly opposite Maccas/The Good Guys. Clicky for street view and swing the camera 180 degrees to find where Maccas is too. I'm not 100% sure if I'll be able to make it at this stage. Maybe if anyone knows of nice places to take photos, you could go take some snaps. I spent a few hours driving around just looking for nice buildings and roads to park the car next to for photos just a few weeks ago. Just throwing out a suggestion drinks/games is good too!

If meeting up at Thomastown area, why not meet at the carpark opposite Maccas.. isn't it like a Myer Megamart or something there? (It's been a while since I've bothered looking there). Maccas meet points on Friday nights really don't capture me haha. Everytime I see groups of cars meeting at Maccas I think "hoons" in my head lol.

Haha that's in slight contrast to the owner of Sparkling Carwash on Burwood Highway where it says you can use buckets when it's quiet.. the owner there always comes in an X5 haha. Awesome be good to see your car!

Spotted a white R34 GTR with cf bonnet and CE28's (I think) driving beside me along Bell Street about 15 minutes ago. When the traffic banked up, I thought you'd pull up beside so I could wave at you but you stopped half a car length behind so the sun was glaring off your window and I couldn't see you haha sorry

The sign at that carwash says no bucket washing at all. I think the chances of the owner being there at that time is slim.. unless there's some high tech surveillance system with automatic bucket detection lol.

Soft or medium compound? Your first post and latest post are different. Type TT are soft?

A couple of my mates are going to give these techniques a shot. http://lifehacker.com/254575/macgyver-tip-...nd-a-hair-dryer http://www.metacafe.com/watch/820799/secre...easy_and_cheap/

The owner came up to me when I went there once to wash. He said he used to own an R34 GTR as well haha.. what are the chances I can go on the same path as him

Awesome, great work, I'll give this a shot when I get home! Thanks!

Yeah I think he leaves by 4 or 5pm. Is the new windshield in yet? Good luck with it all! Maybe see you there

Great idea Ric, I'll be in for this. Haven't met anyone from here yet! I'll bring my camera, maybe after everyone is done washing we can set up the cars in the professional wash area for a group photo.
