Please say you can make it! ;):D

And if you're keen, some of us on Southern Skylines could maybe travel down to Balclutha for a meet one day to see you and your car? Never seen a new generation Skyline up close - and yours is a very welcome change from the normal grey ones!

Unfortunately, I have a cocktail party that night for one of my wife’s friends birthdays. So I won’t be able to make it. Sounds like fun though.

Are the V series skylines generally accepted by other skyline owners, it get the feeling they are frowned upon as they are not a traditional Skylines. I could be tempted to come a long to a meet in Dunners or if you were coming south, I will keep an eye out for meets. Are they usually posted in this forum.

Good call about the color, you are right Grey/Silver is the new white when it comes to imports.

Chur, oh well! There will be other meets. :)

We literally accept anything, only criteria for coming along to meets is that you actually like Skylines/Cefiro's or something else from the Skyline family. :) Like my brother brings along his Mk. IV Toyota Supra to most meets, and we've have turbo Falcon XR6's, RX7's, Civics, Hilux's, motorbikes, and so on.

Hope the guys here won't mind, but all the action happens over on www.southernskylines.com in the forum there. Its pretty much a club just for the South Island of NZ. :)

We'd definately be keen to have you along as i've been wanting a late model Skyline at meets for ages now! If you see any other Skylines, Stageas, Laurels or Cefiros in Balclutha it'd be great if you could tell them about SSE too. ;) Always trying to spread the word - SO many people don't know about us.

Here's some pics from of our last meet: http://southernskyli...?p=37138#p37138

Looks like you have a few members, I will check out the site you suggested.

Not many skylines down here I know of one R32 GTR though. And there was 1 Stagea in Balclutha but i traded it on the V35. It was the same as the Red one you had in the photos of your last meet, but a 4WD one.

      CD009 RB Conversion

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      These are small points I should actually add to my original post. GKtech makes an extended slave line for this conversion. It's what I use, and it works well. You'll also need a CD009 slave cylinder.  S/R Chassis Z33/Z34 Conversion braided clutch line As for transmission sensors, you'll need to both extend the wiring and replace the connectors. I can't recall which is which, but one is your neutral switch and the other the reverse switch. As they are just switches, just test for continuity with your transmission in neutral or reverse to figure out which is which. Connectors:  VQ35 neutral Switch Connector | Wiring Specialties VQ35 Reverse Switch Connector | Wiring Specialties

      Fourth gear grind

      By FRGTN1 · Posted

      I’ll try and see it could be the release bearing. As for the 4th gear grind maybe clutch doesn’t disengage properly cause it is slightly like very slightly hard to go into first could be due to the slab cylinder pin being short uni clutch is a twin plate.   Ive attached some assembly photos hopefully you can open the link and see maybe detect what’s wrong https://share.icloud.com/photos/0dc2YvW__Hl6jl-l2_0jejjpg https://share.icloud.com/photos/09e0jkWOK-vP48c1cfY6u3ViA https://share.icloud.com/photos/0b4rDmh5R7pK7fb1VtND73a3g https://share.icloud.com/photos/05eeUi_6dC4DVi80jOUYDgb0g https://share.icloud.com/photos/06335TgY1XxyIJal_wkdQLhzw

      Fourth gear grind

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Downshifts are harder on transmissions than upshifts, the input shaft naturally slows down once disconnected from the engine so the synchros aren't doing all the work. There's no "natural" tendency for an input shaft to increase RPM. Something is not right there, I don't have a great answer on what. You can try a dedicated GL4 75W90, I plan to switch to Motorcraft XT-M5-QS which is supposedly a very good 75W90 for NB Miatas which have a weirdly sensitive transmission from the factory. I would chase down why your clutch is making a hissing noise, that's not normal. It might be no big deal but in the absence of anything else to investigate I would look at that.
