With the change of date, I can now attend. Adam has asked me to bring along some Skyline suspension stuff to talk about, for you see, touch, feel and/or smell. I was wondering what you might want me bring and what to talk about? Springs perhaps, some shocks maybe, stabiliser bars, alignment products...........let me know what interests you and I will do my best to satisfy that interest. Should I bring a small whiteboard for some drawn explanations? Walk around a car or two and run through the components?

:D cheers :rofl:

Might be an idea to chuck the Stagea and a few Skylines on some jack-stands so people can actually see the components you've helped develop - it will help people get a better grasp on what goes where and how each component contributes to ride/handling, etc.

Collate your entire history of conversations on these forums into an encyclopedia and sell it :thumbsup:

Make sure you're wearing your shiniest Red Ranger shirt too!

Hi everyone -

Just want to confirm some points....

For visitors wanting to see the cars (but are not entering their cars), is there an entry cost to enter and walk around/view and take photos of the cars?

And, as per the brochure image - will the R31 and R32 Gibson cars be there?

I'm looking to drive up from Canberra to see the show 'n' shine as an interested spectator, and look forward to seeing everyon'e pride and joys polished up on display.

No cost for onlookers. As long as you dont scratch or damage anything that's fine :thumbsup:

2nd point I'll let Adam/someone else answer.

Cool come down and enter!? Latest is 10pm, maybe I could fit you in if you are not late :cheers:

    • People still have Skylines? I thought they're non-existent now. 
    • Harness update time have had great fun and learnt so much already so far with this project. I started off making both the ignition and injector sub harnesses in the hope any mistakes i made here aren't as hard to undo and learn from as the main harness.  A cool comparison of the old harness using presumably TXL wire and the new which is using Tezel. Also opted to use DTM plugs to keep the whole setup as neat and tidy as possible and tucked the wiring under the coil bracket to try and keep it all from sticking out too much. Although the injector harness, I'm not overly happy with as I'm still using the rubber boots that are supplied with the type of plugs it just looks ugly and sticks out like a sore thumb with the white identifiers so a slight redesign may be done.   Then it was main harness time and most importantly trying to route it nice and away from the heat it will use the OEM heater hose routing which is no longer present to keep the harness up high and secure. it's amazing how much smaller this harness is able to be compared to the old one. plugged everything into the emtron and with the help of the tuner again attempted to start it up and instantly fired up and running smoothly on all 6 which was a big shock to myself. So still some routing and adjusting to be done for the final fit up and installing a knock sensor harness plug which is in the post all has gone surprisingly well.     The old harness for shits and giggles.
    • They do that at random every now and then, with almost no detectable cause. Mine has done it a couple of times (over 25 years!!). Never worked out why.
    • I don't post on here and have been lurking for some time now. Many of the topics have helped me out more times than i can count. I was racing yesterday (11/9) and blew a front right CV shaft. I have spares so I popped a new one in. A thread i read previously said to check the engine mounts if you blow a front CV. Upon inspection, the front right mount was completely separated from the upper plate. This discovery saved me time and money, because i would have blown another CV if i went back out. Just wanted to thank you guys and wish everyone luck with with their builds. (Now if we could only come up with a solution for my power steering belt flying off after hitting the rev limiter, lol)
    • Either way he still need those style of spacer to go into the manifold because the photo he currently has is not going to work
