Ok folks time to wrap it up. Post up those pics and have a chat about the cruise.

I really enjoyed it and the GTR finally ran without a hitch! I'll post up my pics soon, although had some kind of card problem so the pics during the cruise didn't turn out.

Thanks for a massive amount of $$ reflecting the compassion you guys have felt for another Nissan Nut (Eric) and his family - especially his wife Kylie who has been left brain damaged after childbirth.

Apparently, Eric is a really nice guy too - and in so caring for his wife fulltime, he's forfeited his motor repair workshop and his home.

Great day!

Had a great run up the pass... 4WD helps hehe

Hope we made some good coin for Eric and Kylie and everyone had a good time.

David did you get your boost issue sorted out?

Will post pics later

+1 to AWD Matty LOL ;) You went past me on it down the bottom of Bulli pass.......The noise :wub:

I would like to sincerely thank everyone that came out to show support for such a good cause. And special thanks to all that contributed to our donation fund.

We should be very proud as a club that we raised (edit) $502 today! I will arrange a direct deposit to Eric & Kylie's account this week.

Once again - a very big thanks to everyone!

** Note, an anonymous benefactor has pledged us up to break the $500 mark.

Thanks guys...esp to Ryan for directing me n missus to the meeting point. Glad to b able to chip in for a food cause too. Thanks to Terry...finally met the GTR guy hehehe...been admiring both his n his son s car n thnx for the tips too...hope to see some of u guys on the planned tech nite...will post some pics soon

Hey guys, glad to see things went well today!

Barring some personal misfortune (my fancy high output alternator that I only fit a week or so ago decided to give up the ghost an hour in...) we had a decent turn out and from all accounts a good time. Thanks again for your support, I really didn't expect this to take off on SAU like it has. Just goes to show what a top bunch of people we car nuts really are :)

I miss my boat.

I did love that Capri though.

On another note I wasnt allowed to go back down the pass as the minister of war and finances and the eldest girl got car sick.

It was a fun trip home....

I was a bit bummed that i missed you guys at the meeting point in albion park. Would have been sweet to hear the combined sound as we all ascended the mountain.

It put a big smile on my face to see so many cars had turned up. Some very nice examples on display.

Matt, I love the brake setup on your beast man, what size rotors are you running? And i assume they are Brembo Racing calipers?

Fantastic effort! I honestly hope it helps Eric and his family get the help they need.

Shame we couldn't meet up with you guys at some point today, but we were with you in spirit :)

Thanks mate. I believe they are around 380mm at the front. Discs are AP, and yep calipers are Brembo GT 8 piston front 4 rear. Can't sing the praises of good brakes enough, especially on a day like today!

Great day, good to see such a decent turn out for a good cause :)

Didn't get my boost sorted, drove home in a Lancer lol. Checked all the hoses and piping and everything seems to be connected.

However boost does kick in around 5k+ revs for a split second then goes away.

    • Welcome back to the scene! Godzilla Motorsports were well regarded back in the day.  My GT-R had work done there prior to my ownership.   SRS (Street Race Solutions) in Toowoomba worth a look.  They've built some pretty wild Skylines. Their YouTube channel is comedic to watch!  I'm sure they're all on the glass BBQ but they get shit done! 🤣
    • Hard to say what the extra connector is, it looks a bit like a coax type connector, so possibly a separate radio/GPS antenna, or even another camera input?  The V37 series (including the Q50), did go through a model refresh in 2020, since Australia didn't get any Q50s newer than 2019, we didn't get any of the refreshed models, so there could also be other unexpected problems to overcome to swap an older Q50 head unit into a new model V37. There probably aren't too many people around that have made these sorts of changes to a Q50/V37, so you might end up being the first if you do decide to go ahead. ACP is Apple Car Play and AA is Android Auto, they are roughly the same thing for the 2 major phone operating systems (Apple's iOS and Android), it allows you to connect your phone and access a number of your phone applications on your car system.  With Nav apps included, so you could use google maps/Waze or whatever your favourite navigation app is, instead of using the built in navi system.  I think this would be a better solution if it is only Navigation that you are looking as swapping the head unit for. GPS signals are the same around the globe as the GPS satellites continuously circle the globe, but it is the head unit that doesn't allow you to load Australian maps, or at least no-one had made an Australian map that will load up on the JDM head unit. Regarding the TV standards, I assume you are referring to the AV inputs?  I haven't ever tried to use them, Japan used a slightly modified version of the US NTSC system, and Australia uses PAL for composite video, that said, I wouldn't be surprised if a video input could work with either system.  That is mostly irrelevant here though, unless you plan to use those inputs for something?
    • If you've got bucket loads of $. Go single. If not, just upgrade the twins, Garrett -9's or whatever the current equivalent is for a healthy 350awkw and leave it at that. Will probably still cost you 10k to do in this day and age.
    • When you looking to buy injectors?? I could possibly sell you my 1d1700s for decent price. Done little work I just need bigger again 😫
