How about any time after 5pm at smoothe? How will we know which table, someone hang a Skylines Oz t-shirt over the back of a chair? Or pick like a corner of the outside area to sit at. I'm not sure how busy it is at that time.

So who is it:

Jameszilla

Horus

Jetdat

Hotsky

Creation

SkylineGeoff

Dave

Horus

WazR32GTSt

Funky

so does Friday, 5pm onwards sound good? Maybe 5:30pm?

Maybe good to try this again...

Was good to meet you Gohan :(

Horus & Oyabun also popped in for a coffee.

The weather was awful - but maybe some more numbers next time.

I can't this Friday... maybe a lunchtime?

Boys....i was down there at 6...i didnt see anyone except a few table full of people which i imagined were not the SAU boys....so i went up to see if CREATION was still parked on the 4th floor....and he wasnt...so i left thinking no one showed up...

James and Gohan, Horus and Oyabun, i am really sorry i missed you guys...i was looking forward to meeting all of you...but i have no idea what you guys look like...

i am up for another time for lunch or after work drinks, but how am i gonna recognise you guys??

Yeah, great to meet you too James. Sorry to leave ya there for a bit, but my 30min break stretched to 1 hour, didn't wanna push it any longer :) At least a few other blokes rocked up.

Sorry i haven't replied to ur PM yet Jetdat. I went down to Smoothe round 6'ish, then gave James a sms, and it ended up being about 6:30pm. We were inside cos it was shit cold, and there were 2 guys standing around outside, so i went out and asked if they were waiting for anyone and they looked at me strangely and said "Jenny" or something :( whoops!

Yeah we need a meeting point next time. That's why i thought we should pick a corner of Smoothe. Maybe meet at the ATM next time, just look for people not making a transaction at it, just standing next to it. Anyways, my ANZ email id is 'chind' so if we organise another one, maybe us ANZ'ers can hook up first then go down. Also i have a RED neck thing attached to my security card, but i leave it hanging out of the back pocket of my Jeans for easy access. So if u see some dude standing around with a red cord hanging out the back pocket, that be me! :( I always wear jeans on Friday as well.

Maybe lunch next time?

EDIT: jeans and colorado shoes, a given on a friday ;) colorado shoes are those suede ones, the yellowy ones. So colorado's, jeans, red cord, that be me :D

    • 1. I can't see a location on your profile but you do mention GBP so I'll assume you are in UK. In Australia, CBC make a timing belt kit with the gears and idler and tension bearing and that is what I use without any problems. I'm sure OEM or HKS are also fine but I wouldn't pay extra for HKS over anything else. 2. Yes, I would always change the idler and tensioner and the stud and bolt that hold them in. Assuming they were all done last time it is highly unlikely you would have a problem, but they are very cheap to add to the job considering the time it will take anyway.  3. No, you don't need to lock them as such (I think that is more for engines without timing marks), but you should make sure they move as little as possible once the belt is off as you can hit pistons on valves if they move too far. As always, make sure you line it all up to top dead centre with the timing marks aligned before you take the old belt off.

    • Hey everyone,   I’m looking for some advice on replacing the timing belt on my RB25DET Neo-powered 1998 Skyline. The engine was fully built about five years ago, including a fresh timing belt, water pump, and other essentials. However, since then, the car has only covered around 2,000–3,000 miles. It’s currently making around 650hp.   Even though the mileage is low, I know timing belts have a time-based lifespan too, and most recommendations suggest changing them every five to six years or 50,000 miles. Since I’m at that time mark, I’d rather not take any risks and plan to swap it out soon.   A few things I’d like to hear opinions on: 1. What’s the best belt for this setup? Should I go with an OEM Nissan belt, or is the HKS fine-tune a better choice given the power level? 2. Would you bother replacing the idler pulley and tensioner at the same time, or only if they show wear? 3. When swapping the belt, is it necessary to lock the cam and crank gears in place, or is lining up the timing marks enough? I’ve seen different approaches, and I want to make sure I do it right.   The water pump was changed with the rebuild and isn’t run off the timing belt, so I don’t see a need to replace it again. I just want to make sure I approach this the right way.   Any insight would be much appreciated. Thanks!
