hey guys im new to this forum and well im simply a skyline fan.

I was wondering if anyone from the northside of brisbane would be able to come down and escort my date and i to my formal (19/11/09) at like 5-6pm ish.

If anyone can id gladly appreciate it, id pay well and you would be able to show off your ride.

Cheers, David.

Borrow someones fat wheels (20's or the like just so it turns heads) and drive the nicest out of the 32 and 33 you have. Then when ya get to the front hop out and get ya date out and let ya mate drive the car round the corner.

But then again prob easiest to just jump in the evo lol.

I remember 2 years ago i did a formal in mine with two mates in their white 33 skylines (one was a gtr) and we were turning more heads rocking up together than all the oldschool cars were. Mind you it was probably just the noise coming from the gtr (370awkw with straight through exhaust)

Lol personally i reckon for formals ya gotta go in like hotrods or old classic convertibles or something. Gone are the days where it's cool to rock up in a vx clubsport and stuff. I'm sure there's places you can hire out old cars for stuff like that... try your local vintage car club or something. Nothing would be cooler than going in a rolls royce silverghost:

      Wiring high beams in IC7 for R32 GTR

      It's not a dumb question. I was circling this idea myself. User error is always possible!

      R32 gtst speedo out by 10kph

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Nope. The seal is in the drive. A new cable would just fill up and continue to convey oil to the speedo head. To check if this is what is happening, take the cluster out, dismantle the speedo and have a look. You probably don't even have to dismantle it. If there is oil coming up the cable, the drive into the speedo will be grossly greasy. I had to manually (and delicately) clean the gunk out of my speedo.

      Thanks for the quick response mate, and I agree Nismo 555s, Z32 and high flow 2871 in OP6 housing (run by PowerFC) would all be "period correct" and should be a simple, reliable and reasonably quick track car.

      It is normal for a speedo to read 0-10% high (unfortunately), intended by manufacturers and ADRs (although not in this case) to ensure your speedo does not read low if your tyres are worn. Speaking of which, what size tyres do you have on the rear, and what does they tyre placard say you should have? you can use this https://tiresize.com/calculator/ to determine what % difference that is causing Personally, when I buy tyres for a car I buy a size that will bring the speedo back to being more accurate; it if it reads 5% high I buy tyres that are 5% larger diameter. If you had an electronic speed sender like R33 onwards, the other option is to add a speedo adjuster but that won't work in R32. Finally, you  might be able to find a different sized gear for the speedo sender but that will be limited to what already exists (and I don't know what sizes do)

      OK...so dumb question to check....do the hi beams actually come on when the push the stalk to engage them (keeping in mind your headlight switch must be at ON as well)
