Awesome, i was hoping there was a crew up there, theres maybe 12 skylines in total in coffs harbour and most are unfortunately crashed into a pole haha I was also gunna ask as well, who can i get in touch with for some painting work as my 34 was one of the oh so lucky ones to come with that massive 'altia' wing on it, which i ripped off. I was gunna get it done down here but if i can find someone who looks after imports or sau members it could be a massive help!!

Plus i look forward to meeting everyone!!

Hey guys, thanx for all the information!!

Where is it locally known to not drive through or park your car? like at night time? or even parking at Shopping centres etc,

I have appropriate security on it but will be investing in a gps tracker quite soon.

Ok that seems fine enough. What about more closer to the gold coast? i avoid parking at places in coffs harbour atm at night because we have problems arising down here as well, so happy to be moving but yeh need to know these places guys!! haha

Just get a good alarm. Nowhere in SEQ is safe. i had a car stolen from about 2m from my bedroom window. had a 3" turbo back and no muffler. was insanley loud so no way they drove it.

its a real shame but SEQ is full of low lifes. Places like robina and harbour town have all been hot spots in the past. Locked in ur own garage at night and a kicakss alarm are best. See Chris roger, most peopel recomend him.

I love my car too much haha, Also is there anyone who knows any decent mechanics in the seq area and also any decent body shops? i had that stupid altia wing on my car and want the holes patched up and resprayed, plus the boot lid has some rust and the holes so i wanna get it all patched up. So is anyone kind to skyline owners up north????

      There's more than one way to skin that cat, and most of the sump Maatouks have done will be GTR sumps. They are HUGE in GTR drag racing here.

      Shifting questions

      Yeah...I always start at the shift solenoids, because there's only a few reasons these will spook into limp mode, and bad shift solenoids is one ~ the other can be the shift control module (if you have steering wheel shift buttons)...it's easier to eliminate the solenoids first.

      Never ending fuel pump drama

      By cabramatta · Posted

      Might piggy back off this thread since there's been a good discussion about PWM.   I purchased a Walbro 460 F90000267 and have been looking into PWM to understand it. It was purchased more of a future proof as my original OEM fuel pump died (r33 below 200kw) and figured I'd just upgrade it to this. That's when it hit me that a pump this big can cause more dramas with such high amperage draw and heating of the fuel pump being on 100% all the time in such a mild setup.   I have a Nexus R3 and slowly collecting power mods but I was looking into the PWM feature on the NSP software:   Then looking at the graph from the fuel pump:     Am I safe to assume reducing duty cycle to 50% for example would make the pump run like a 230/lph ? Where does the PWM come in all of this ?   I've gone down the rabbit hole of PWM fuel pumps and it seems there are many differing opinions on how to go about it 😅

      That specific one would be an exchange part, meaning I'd have to send mine to them. Plus it looks like a non AWD sump, which won't work for me. There is one or two shops in my country that I can ask to do a sump extension job and it'd most likely end up being cheaper than sending mine to AUS or NZ and getting one back, and quicker too.
