Tough wheels!

I like'em.

Or just get Charles to vinyl wrap your spoiler :P

Don't think vinyl wrap in CF will look good on purple.

Sticker bomb would be though, just need to find some.

Still not sure about the Panasports though, just walked outside to get mail from the letterbox, watching the R thinking, man, 17s does look tiny!

You laugh now, but when I'm at a formal occasion with a shitty DJ and they need someone to drop Dre beats...I have something up my sleeve.

I meant get Charles to vinyl wrap it in purple or try and match your colour as close as possible.

17" will look tiny on a R33 GTR, you need to go at least 18".

Jamie, if I'm going to wrap it, I'd rather to have it stand out. If I'm going to wrap it in purple, I may as well paint the whole spoiler.

Yeah, for me to go 18s I'd have to grab a softer set coilovers than what I've got in mine atm, and grab swaybars - more money down in the drain...

What happened to eastside imports club or whatever it was called..?

Ask Jezza Boi as he started that.

I think they are still around, but Vic Imports Clubs was the branch off club from SEI, which is growing quiet big.

True, sticker it up yo!

I'm in 2 minds about it, the coilovers I've got in makes the R handles really amazing (don't have any other form of handling bits) but it is way too harsh for street driving, one uneven surface, my driving position changed that instant - which isn't good should I want to make the R faster...

Atm, looking for softer coilovers, so far seen Tein Driving Master - need to do research whether how stiff it is.

Harsh ride? Time to man up

I don't mind it actually, but I'm not sure if I wanna wreck wheels this rare though.

Yes, I'm a girl now, deal with it.

I don't disagree with what Alex is saying about lock in times, it's a legitimate reason for some people not entering. I don't mind staying the whole day, I can always leave my car there and go do something else...doesn't suit everyone though.

I just want to say one last "tl;dr" passage, that committee do take suggestions on board...it's stupid not to listen to your own members. But most of the time, the issue being raised is one that's already been discussed by us (~10 people). A decision has to be made, and sometimes we end up divided over it. Anyone can spot problems, coming up with an actual solution to keep everyone happy is another thing. If you've got a solution, send it through...I'm not being a smart ass...trust me, they will 100% welcome it if they can't fault it. That's all committee is, a bunch of fellow members critiquing items and throwing ideas/input at it until a majority agree on something...because 10 minds are better than 1.

Docklands only want us to move cars in and out during non peak times, being the start of the day and the end of the day. Which is a shame, because it is an awesome and central location. So then you change it to something like Caribbean Gardens, where you can drive in and out...suddenly you're snubbing the west siders who cbf driving an hour to the SnS, and I can't blame them for that.

Anyone want to help with / do a boot install for $$$?

No waiz.. what did you have back then?

Knew some people from Mccr, it's a shame they no longer exist. The club exec. was a dude with a black Mr2 and i believe he also had a powerful soarer

lol I was on my L plates when MCCR was around...only went to a couple of cruises, hung around the forums a bit.

      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 some 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.
