It wasnt as good as Last year.... (and doesnt even come close to final battle either) i have been to a few of these around aus and i was very dissapointed with the turnout of cars seeing there is only 1 show now in melbourne... or it could be me because i have seen 90% of al the cars b4 and not much has changed....

i did see quite a few SAU stickers too,... we had 3 Members on our Stand (the Black Stagea, the Purple 32 GTR with 34front, and Ferahs 34GTT)

even though i wasnt as happy with the show its not stopping me from going again and again... it would be good to see more Clubs as well... its a shame SAU didnt have something....

Oh BTW Congrats to Nathan with his Stagea winning 1st in its Class in DB Drags :thumbsup:

Thanks Ferah, I had a great weekend with you guys and we would love to enter with you again next year.

Yeah congrats to Nathan (my lil brother) for his first DB win, I'm sure he will enter again next year with something bigger and better.

He will be competing on the dyno to hopefully.

Again from me, thanks to the whole Team Ignite crew you are all a great bunch of people and I hope to see you all again soon.

Yeah Autosalon wasn't too bad. I had fun!.

Definatly getting smaller and smaller by the year. And the turnout of crowds, cars and even trade stands are fast dissapearing.

And who saw the silver supra push out 955kw... what a load of sh!t. The dyno operaters were struggling to hold down cars with 350kw yet they can hold a 950kw car?? :)

    • So.... when I'm finally getting around to having my power steering leak sorted, now it looks like I've got the same issue most A/T Skylines are having. My A/T light will randomly come on and I'm stuck in 3rd gear until I turn the car off and on again. Only 3 weeks ago I did a complete transmission service: Oil flush + new gasket + new filter. This came out of nowhere!! It wasn't like the car was driven hard. I drove about 3 mins down the road to get fuel and boom!!!  Anyway, I have a few questions and hope you fine people can help me out here. All questions are in red. 1. The solenoids: I was looking at the parts catalogue in Amayama and I could only find the Solenoids as an assembly. https://www.amayama.com/en/part/nissan/319404ax05 I read in another thread that Solenoid A = 31940-4AX02 & Solenoid B = 31940-4AX05 but the Amayama product has only the code of B. Is this the right part? Can anyone who has done the Solenoid changes or seen them confirm if this is the complete set of A & B?   2. Gasket and Filter: I'm not going to try change the solenoids myself because it seems difficult to do in a home garage with just 2 jack stands. I plan to take it to a shop and get it changed. I was also going to buy the transmission sump gasket at the same time so I don't reuse the same gasket. Should I just use the existing gasket as it has only been on the car since OCT 19th? (~3 weeks) Should I be buying a brand-new gasket and a filter? Does this job involve taking the filter out?   Thanks in advance to everyone. It's hard to find a video of someone doing a solenoid change on a R34 so any help you can give answering my remaining questions would make me less stressed.
    • Yea - From what I have seen from the video, the car idles like any R34 lol 50PSI of fuel pressure is hardly super abnormal, the regulator is working because the pressure remains static when the throttle gets revved, i.e pressure remains the same when manifold vaccuum changes. Bigger pumps on stock rails always bumped the pressure in the rail without using an aftermarket regulator to change that. Do you know what your IAC is actually doing? Has there been any data showing the stepper motor % etc? There's no way your idle is actually moving around the way the cluster(s) are indicating. You would hear the difference with the engine RPM flying to 3k and 1k in mere seconds. I'd be checking the wiring to the tacho. What the tacho is telling you and what the engine/ecu is telling you are different things. I assume your ECU doesn't display the spike. So whatever is telling the tacho to be at X rpm is doing something weird. When the going gets insane, you're on the wrong path. You've ruled out plenty of things that are working correctly/aren't the issue. Your idle isn't doing what the tacho is indicating. You have two seperate issues, I don't think they are linked, and the idle seems reasonably okay unless it's stalling which.. well, it hasn't. Troubleshoot the stall if it occurs by figuring out what your IAC is doing vs what it is being told to do.
    • So awesome! I love the RB with the exhaust on display.
    • NO HITS PRICE DROP   ENGINE - $8.5k ONO TRANSMISSION - $1.8k ONO  
    • If it has had a code in the recent past, the code should still be there waiting to be read.
