I am seriously considering starting a Melbourne University Nissan Imports club, (if 1 doesnt exist). It will be similar to the one they have an Monash but better... hopefully. It will also include Latrobe and RMIT but it will be based in Melbourne (since it is in the middle).

Just wanna get a gauge of numbers. If u would be interested let me know and i am open to all suggestions.

Also, i might need a helper, ie like a Vice-President if ne1 is interested so let me know.

Atm i'm thinking a few barbeques folowed by cruises and mayb organise a drift event of some kind at Calder (which is pretty close to campus). We could mayb secure some funding from the Uni and sponsors but enough talk...

...so come all u melb uni ppl, i know u exist, and support this club.

Of course this club will also be closely affiliated with NS.com, NISMU (monash nissan club) and SAU

Also I am planning to recruit from RMIT (which is just down the rd) and Latrobe Uni, so any ppls from these unies plz come fwd as i will need reps.

This is all still in the planning proccess and it may not go ahead if theres not enough interest, so plz say if ur interested.

P.S. You dont have to be a Melb Uni student to join (altho it would help) and u definately don't have to be an owner of an import... this club will be open to all motoring enthusiasts.

Its probably best that you organise one just in Melb uni rather than put all your eggs in one basket. Its hard enough running one uni club (been there, done that) its much more of a headache trying to organise a cross university club... even with a full committee.

talk to PALADN, he tried to organise a latrobe uni drift club not long ago. Dunno how it went though.

Also there's no more drift at calder...

i keep seeing him parking in the dirt carparks in his r32 :P

I think that is a good idea but I really doubt you will be able to secure any funding from Uni Melbourne. The Student Union budget is tight enough and I understand that there are some changes that would decrease the amount of money the Union has to play with. I don't really see many imports at Uni Melbourne, so it might be hard to get enough members in just Uni Melbourne to sustain the club. Just my opinion.

    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
    • Fark the AFM card and Nistune, Haltech Nexus S3, DBW, cruise control, flex fuel, dis dat.  
    • It's most likely the bolt/bush where the cover bolts back wore and allowed cover to move forward.
    • Still haven't put the injectors and R35 AFM in so we can tune the bloody thing for the HG highflow it got mid last year! I think I can forecast the upgrade path to a bigger twin scroll, external gate, Haltech, flex setup, Samsonas, dis dat, etc will be .... a while away!
    • Should have taken that opportunity to slot in a twin scroll turbo setup. Maybe next time.
