Hi guys, I'm looking to join a skyline club. I've had my Black R33 skyline for other 12 months now and i always see a lot of skyline's coming into Shepparton, like the weekend just gone.

I'm totally new to car events and computer nerd by trade and could do with a friendly club to help learn ropes and more about my car.

The skyline nats are this weekend With any luck I’ll get myself entered, I think i spoke to someone a while ago at a bbq that was down at local park here in Shepparton, would be nice to join up and maybe meet some people over the weekend.

Hey David,

I think you may have spoken to me at the BBQ, in the park. If i remember correctly it was a FEW months ago (if not last year) and probably on the Sunday morning/lunch time. If that is the case, you took your time joining :).

Well hope to see ya around and participating at our events. Would be good to have a local guide us round the town's hot spots, after Taco Bells, on the Saturday night. ;)

Sweet thanks, will pm you soon.

Ok I will be posting this else where for everyone.

I work for local newspaper here in shep and Country new Auto is like a sub publication we do. I'm wanting to ask any members if they would be willing to come out to newspaper on Friday some time and get there picture taken with there car's and even perhaps answer a few questions for an article about the event. I will also be taking photos over the weekend for a spread that may run in following week’s paper. Might be a good bit of promotion for the club.

Thanks again.

'Cars Weekly' by any chance?

No Country News, There part of like a rival rag. where much bigger than that. Country news isn't just Shepparton, it's sent to benalla,seymour,echuca,cobram and many more.

Anyone know if Cars Weekly are doing anything?, they sometimes have good looking chick model with some of there cars.

Anyone know of any of Shepparton members? i see other skylines here but don't know there drivers.

'patche' was a member, but he's only here to sell his car I believe. (wants $10k!). "ITURNER" aka Dave was here, but he since sold his nice looking 33 and only has his 34 left. Which is also for sale. The only other member I can think of is NUTR33, but to be honest I am not sure if he is even still around in Shepparton.

As far as I am aware there aren't any (that I have seen) SAU Skyline owners in Shepparton. Members that is.

      They usually get made by hand as part of any such swap.

      Was planning on getting an R35 MAF and the adapter, should this be okay? Also any idea where I could get my hands on an intake pipe?

      Stock rb25det neo questions

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      I mean yes, if you're starting from scratch on an unknown engine yes you don't need to be doing all kinds of math in the background but if you're doing relatively minor changes like AFM + injectors + boost up with some aftermarket turbos it takes quite a bit of math if you want to do something like maintain OEM fuel + timing tables but compressed and then a bit more load scale up top. I think I've spent too much time working on big engineering nightmares though so I'm a big fan of trying to constrain the scope of whatever work I'm doing as much as possible and trying to get it right before moving on. For example, a local owner just did the usual E85 + single turbo conversion to his R32 GTR and nearly burned his car to the ground doing some spirited driving up the local mountains. Turbine is unshielded and too close to the hood insulation. It's tough to balance "just get the project done" and "seemingly small details can cause massive setbacks I'm not willing to deal with".

      Neil's R33 Gts-t Build

      By soviet_merlin · Posted

      No idea about Neil's steering wheel, but I have the same behaviour in the Stagea. I doubt it has ever been messed with so might be normal. Indicating to turn right at a roundabout and correcting even a little bit to the left to go around will cancel the indicator. Never considered it an issue other than it being a bit odd.
