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.

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:

10am is the shut-off time, not 10pm...

      Is r33 gtr steering wheel the same as the gtst?

      By PotatoCake 路 Posted

      The steering wheel on my 97 s3 gtr is a little bit worn out, so im on the hunt for something mint. I notice that this type of steering wheel is on several other nissan's of the era.  Does anyone know if their all identical, or are there slight differences? I feel like gtr tax applies to anyone selling one, but if it comes from any other car the price is much less, even though its the same design.  Chat gpt says the material for the gtr is slightly different and it says gtr on the wheel, but every pic ive seen it just says nissan.

      Ahh... it's an early RE5R01A box, that means the pinouts I gave are wrong (they were for the RE4R01A 4-speed box)... I'll have to dig around in my docs to see if I've got that schematic (they used the same gearbox plug, with the vacant pin wired to the direct drive clutch solenoid)...prolly hidden away in a supplement somewhere... ...there were 3 variants of the RE5R01A ~ this early schema was what we called the 'dumb' 5 speed ; it's what jatco called a 'medium duty' box, with torque holding up roughly ~200ft/lbs or so, which was good for NA from RB20/25DE and up to around VG30 output spec. With the RB25DET (and VG33/35 mills), the only options they had was the 4-speed 4AX00 box, which had been beefed up to handle the extra torque (primarily for the VG35, but it also suited the RB25DET mill and others)...and the RE4R03 box in large 4WDs a lot of the time... ...the next variant of 5-speed was redesigned, stronger, and 'smart'...first ones had external TCU with internal (on valvebody) Shift Control Unit, pressure switches, and 2 x TSS...and the last ones had internal TCU+SCU setup, with CANbus control etc etc. @DRoc81 On the RHS of the box towards the rear, there should be a stamped silver ID tag -- what's the model number? Oh...and with the early 5-speeds, the torque converter control solenoid assembly should be replaced as well (31940-60X00)...it's a bit Murphy's Law ....if one has failed, bet on the rest not being far behind ...
