Love this pic Alex!

Sorry I missed it - looks like you all had fun.

That's my favorite pic of my gtr, my mates gtr and the awesome r35 gtr !!

Thanks guys, the Mrs was snapping away inbetween bumps! What happened before that was slightly butt clenching up the hill with the coaster bus. Lets just say performance gap between R32 GTR and R35 was displayed in front of me. Provided the lulz looking back on it.

Go another of the R35 on a seemingly empty road- one of my favs.

Me neither.

By the way, it was nice to meet you on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere Brodie. :)

Well run cruise guys, as usual. It's always fun to tag along with the Skyline Club.

Nice shots there Alex. Are those through the windscreen? Suprisingly no glare if they are. Kudos to your Mrs!

Yeah they are Eric, I'll pass it on. And just a old Canon point and shoot- bout $120 worth! Goes to show sometimes it doesn't matter what you got- its what in the pic that counts! :P

Great cruise! First time on putty rd, was loving sitting behind your car, it looked awesome when it took off! Good to see a 35 being driven as nissan intended!

Thanks for the Photos!

The look great and yes my engine before had the oil restrictor blocked by some junk and seized oil to the head.

Was an awesome day all round.. Keen to see some more pics, I was going to get some at the end point but by the time I had finished lunch everyone was pretty much taking off... The only pics i got was of mine just after the bike crash waiting everyone to come back through ha..

I only took a few pics as well. I hope some of you also took the opportunity to take some pictures of your pride & joy while in the Hunter too. Lots of great back drop scenery.

    • So.... when I'm finally getting around to having my power steering leak sorted, now it looks like I've got the same issue most A/T Skylines are having. My A/T light will randomly come on and I'm stuck in 3rd gear until I turn the car off and on again. Only 3 weeks ago I did a complete transmission service: Oil flush + new gasket + new filter. This came out of nowhere!! It wasn't like the car was driven hard. I drove about 3 mins down the road to get fuel and boom!!!  Anyway, I have a few questions and hope you fine people can help me out here. All questions are in red. 1. The solenoids: I was looking at the parts catalogue in Amayama and I could only find the Solenoids as an assembly. https://www.amayama.com/en/part/nissan/319404ax05 I read in another thread that Solenoid A = 31940-4AX02 & Solenoid B = 31940-4AX05 but the Amayama product has only the code of B. Is this the right part? Can anyone who has done the Solenoid changes or seen them confirm if this is the complete set of A & B?   2. Gasket and Filter: I'm not going to try change the solenoids myself because it seems difficult to do in a home garage with just 2 jack stands. I plan to take it to a shop and get it changed. I was also going to buy the transmission sump gasket at the same time so I don't reuse the same gasket. Should I just use the existing gasket as it has only been on the car since OCT 19th? (~3 weeks) Should I be buying a brand-new gasket and a filter? Does this job involve taking the filter out?   Thanks in advance to everyone. It's hard to find a video of someone doing a solenoid change on a R34 so any help you can give answering my remaining questions would make me less stressed.
    • Yea - From what I have seen from the video, the car idles like any R34 lol 50PSI of fuel pressure is hardly super abnormal, the regulator is working because the pressure remains static when the throttle gets revved, i.e pressure remains the same when manifold vaccuum changes. Bigger pumps on stock rails always bumped the pressure in the rail without using an aftermarket regulator to change that. Do you know what your IAC is actually doing? Has there been any data showing the stepper motor % etc? There's no way your idle is actually moving around the way the cluster(s) are indicating. You would hear the difference with the engine RPM flying to 3k and 1k in mere seconds. I'd be checking the wiring to the tacho. What the tacho is telling you and what the engine/ecu is telling you are different things. I assume your ECU doesn't display the spike. So whatever is telling the tacho to be at X rpm is doing something weird. When the going gets insane, you're on the wrong path. You've ruled out plenty of things that are working correctly/aren't the issue. Your idle isn't doing what the tacho is indicating. You have two seperate issues, I don't think they are linked, and the idle seems reasonably okay unless it's stalling which.. well, it hasn't. Troubleshoot the stall if it occurs by figuring out what your IAC is doing vs what it is being told to do.
    • So awesome! I love the RB with the exhaust on display.
    • NO HITS PRICE DROP   ENGINE - $8.5k ONO TRANSMISSION - $1.8k ONO  
    • If it has had a code in the recent past, the code should still be there waiting to be read.
