me too joined in 02, I think I may have actually joined SDU first and then found this place ;)

memories hmm, well I only joined up AFTER buying my skyline I thought that I wasnt actually allowed to join a skyline club without actually owning one :D Otherwise I would have joined months earlier - in the lead up to buying. In hindsight I could have found more knowledge about these cars before spending the cash. In Foresight I didnt get ripped with the price, I have still learned a lot about my car [with you guys] and I didnt buy a lemon either :D

Posting sure has changed a lot since 02 - I remember that post-whoring got so carried away that they took away our Post Count - asif that stopped us :D. Then they bought the count back after some of us settled down [or got day jobs].

oh the memories...

actually if I had of joined when I was first interested in skylines it would have been in the eighties - yes I had my learners in the 80's lol way back when they were selling brand new R31 GTS' in Black or Red, straight outta N-SVD or OzNismo as i call it :D

but them's probably the wrong kinda memories for here.

I joined back in July 2002 under the name Wardest Mac. I subsequently forgot my password after a short while and thus had to sign up again in September 2002 as Schmeddo.

This didn’t last long before I forgot my password again. I registered as my current moniker, “Wardest” in January 2003.

This third incarnation is the only personality which owns a Skyline and has thus been able to push the other two into my subconscious. Should they ever re-emerge tho, I’ll be in big trouble.

    • I’d love to find some where that can recover the dashes to look brand new and original. Mine has a very slight bubble, nothing compared to come I’ve seen though 
    • $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.
    • Time for a modernisation, throw out the AFM, stock O2s, ECU into the e-waste bin. Rip out the cable throttle, IACV, pedal, etc. into the scrap metal bin. DBW, e-throttle, modern ECU, CANbus wideband, and the thing will drive better than when it left the factory.
    • I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.
    • I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later.
