Ok Guys this is the first vote set up for when people want to go for a trip camping/cabining. The place with the most votes will be the first area I will try to see if we can get in.

Whether we make it 1 or 2 nights will be determined at a later date, it may be possible to have 2 runns, 1 lot arriving on friday & another saturday.

If you have any additions, comments, questions etc. & for more info please go to the main thread:

Edit: Nightcrawler has done some ringing around & found out that virtually nowhere is available in January. So for now just pick any date when voting, the finalised weekend will have to be determined at a later date

Cheers

I definitely vote against Jan 6-7 (most people end of holidays and still recovering from Xmas/New Year), and Jan 27-28 (Aus Day long weekend - xtra traffic etc plus miss out on the cricket). Either of the other weekends sound good.

Victor will be way too busy to get a large group of people accommodated, as likely will Goolwa. Mannum is boring as bat shit, as is Normanville. I vote Stansbury as I have never been there and wouldn't mind checking out the fishing!

I have emailed the Stansbury Caravan Park to ask for costs of cabins and availability in Jan. I am sure those that wish to camp can do so next to cabins.

ah crap nice call .... yes I definitely won't be missing Schitzenfaced! We should do an SAU meet-up again this year (the last 2 years have been awesome) - I might make a new post!

sorry but wtf is Stansbury? >_<

I voted for Mannum coz its a nice drive up the windy rd, into the big horse, tungkilo, the museum and the cool breeze of the mighty Murray @ Mannum, a boat trip also with some beer :D

anytime, but get it happening

Should have added an "Any of the above" option for all of them, as I'm only really fussed about the date...

Hell yeah, you know I'm there, shame I can't be as lecherous this year now I have missus, unless... hahaha!

Make that post as a lot of people will disappear over xmas / new year and it'll end up organised in a rush if you wait til afterwards.

well I just got an email back from Goolwa and Stansbury caravan parks and both are fully booked for the whole of January, as it is school holidays (and I'll bet every caravan park is the same). I vote we move it to February.

Its oyster bay silly :wave:

yorke peninsula....virtually due west from adelaide over the gulf

lol :glare:

thanks

yorke would be good

tent/cabin? cant we do a day trip?

or is taht too far?

Id only be staying the night if I could get a cabin for my family of 4, unfortunately. Dont have an easy2assemble 4berth tent or airbeds etc....... Id mainly be in it for the cruise, and to say gday and all that.

Otherwise a cruise, drinks, eats, etc and then a solo drive back home might be on the cards for my family.

I voted Normanville - beaut place. Some nice roads around there too, generally "enforcement-free" too.

edit: unless I leave the wife and kids at home and sleep-over in the Stagea =)

Would be interested 20th onwards any weekend any where. would be good to catch up n meet a few guys from here. lol but are girlfriends invited to? or is this a men only weekend?? :D

Well we're not exactly a mens club are we?? :D Naah not a guys weekend it's a Skylines weekend (though we're not really discriminating there either). Women are more than welcome, single women even more so :D.

I guess it would have been a better idea to actually just establish the most popular location first & then figure out the date. Sounds like Jan's out, should have know I guess being summer & school holidays. Thanks for doing the legwork Andrew.

    • Convert to dual filament bulb   FWIW, it will look odd - I dare say a bit dumb as it looks like your flasher relay has shit the bed.
    • If the RB20 box in the car is a push clutch, then yes, you will need to deal with the pull clutch on the turbo box. You either buy a pull clutch and don't use the old one, or you do the things needed to convert the turbo box's clutch arrangement over to push. Which is a bit of a f**karound. "Making" a custom tailshaft is the easy part. But you will need to source the front clip yoke - the bit that goes into the output of the gearbox. These are not as easy to find. They are out there, but they don't grow on trees the way that they used to.
    • Indicator bulbs are way too bright to use as a "corner marker" (we call them parking lights too). Sure. Go ahead and do it. But realise that you wil need to come up with all your own wiring to do it, as no-one will have a standard howto worked out for Skylines. It's just a matter of abandoning everything that Nissan have done and starting from scratch. You'd probably be better off retrofitting tailght/brakelight globe bases into the front indicator housings and using the taillight circuit for your corner marker and the brake light as the indicator. You'd need to work out how to kill the marker circuit while the indicator is flashing, otherwise it won't flash on-off, just bright-less bright.
    • Hi. A little bit of an update. It maybe(hope not) looks like i would need a new tranny(it would be "maybe" a cheaper or better option anyway) So i need some info. I know i need a different propshaft(i can make custom one) LSD is not a problem cuz the engine will be still(for now) N/A RB20. So if i buy RB25DET NEO tranny...is there something else i need? I read something about push/pull type but i do not know if i need to "change" something or i can just plug n play onto my engine a go? Thanks for the advice  
    • Good morning all, Bit of a random question but figured I’d finally throw it out after wondering for a long while. Before I start, I'm hoping to do this purely out of personal preference. I think it would look better at night, and don't mind at all spending a few hours and dollars to get it done. I've copied this from a non-Skyline specific forum, so I apologize for the explanation of our headlight switch setup that we all know. Here we go: Zero lights (switch off) Parking lights (switch position 1) being a rectangular marker on the outside of the housing, my low beam being the projector in the centre (position 2), and a high beam triggered by my turn signal stalk. Most North American cars I’ve owned of this era have power to the amber corner (turning indicator) light as part of the first switch (parking lights). I’d love to have these amber corners receive power when the headlights and parking lights are on (headlight switch), yet still blink when using the turn signal which is of course a separate switch. Hopefully I’ve explained my question correctly. Is anyone aware of a way in which I might be able to achieve this? Thanks in advance
