Hey Joel,

If your on facebook send me a pm will get you to join the R35 Life OZ there is over 60 R35 owners on there and is a closed group so only R35 guys can get on. Also if in Melbourne speak to the guys at Zoom Garage they own a R35 will be able to help out and point you in the right direction. Also goggle Willall Racing from SA they have a lot of parts in stock and do all the cobb tuning.

The R35 section on SAU is quite boring these days as we are all on facebook, seem to get more non R35 guys in this section commenting....

Was think a successful guy like this to be able to spell "exhaust" but eyyy could be drugs? Nah jk nice ride

Your post also makes a lot of scene. "Was think"?

Seems if you own a few cars on SAU you must be a drug dealer now days........Maybe he won lotto? Hence why no R35 owners bother getting on here to talk about R35's any more.

Great attitude for a GTR owner. Remember, this discussion board; keyword discussion is to discuss R35's, whether or not you own one makes no difference. Keep to your Facebook private group for your exclusive VIP parties.

Now, moving on from that. Very nice garage you've got Joel - could share some pictures of the other automobiles you currently possess?

Cheers,

Mere R34 GTT owner who does not have the "right" to post here.

Hi Jeremy

Great to see you read the R35 sections in your spare time and that's right you do have right to post here no one stops you :)

Can ask a questions Jeremy since its all about discussions... Do you think it is right when people buy a car and have several other nice cars they get refereed to as a drug dealer?

Hence the reason I put that comment in my first post.....I am so sorry if I upset you with my attitude was only discussing what was on my mind.

Cheers

Thread cleaned. Some of you need to grow up a little and think before posting dribble.

Welcome Joel, you'll find the forums have a wealth of information that you'll never find quick/easy on Facebook :)

You'll be well looked after @ Racepace, lately every time I've been out there - two different R35s out the front. everytime.. Must be doing something right as they say.

But come on though - surely you must save the Pontiac is the ultimate car simply because of what it was, a rare piece indeed :thumbsup:

Oh and just on this too - SAU actually offered to create a private area for R35 guys, there were a few PMs going around about it to help everyone out - as indeed - it's become worse over time with general 'annoyance' from other sections of the forum.

That never eventuated which was kinda odd, as it would work very well. Maybe because it wouldn't let people continue to avoid SAU Trader fees? Maybe the other R35 guys weren't even told about it? ;)

The idea/proposal still stands none the less if someone, such as yourself, wanted to look into that with us!

Come on Ash "Maybe because it wouldn't let people continue to avoid SAU Trader fees?" That's a bit rough. We are all friends and no one is trying to advertise or make money off our group. We share information only. If we have stuff to sell we sell like any other page. It's just the ease of use of Facebook vs an online forum, simple as that.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      Nah, apparently the way to do it is just mess with how much timing the engine uses to try to correct idle. So it massively undershoots, then overshoots, then undershoots, then overshoots. So timing is going from 5deg to 45deg to 5 deg to 45deg. But I kinda prefer the car to not lurch around and have a dependable idle. Given it didn't idle for shit and stalled about 7 times on the way home, still yet to drive it for the 2nd time to see if it's fixed.

      Alright. Many little things have been sorted and the car successfully drove home with an incredibly huge exhaust leak. Unsure if it's simply been awhile, but new heads and cam and intake sound f**kin awesome. It might only be me that notices it though, and it's hard to tell from a 15 minute gauntlet run home and attempting to bleed the radiator. Undertrays on, tools out, road brake pads in, idle un-f***ed, time to do some road tuning. From my commute around town it sounds and drives *really* nice (with a max of like 35% throttle). It'll go to a dyno for a proper before and after once the tune is more roughly dialled in. And @Dose Pipe Sutututu I did learn how to do a proper chop tune at idle. I did indeed even do it, but the car shaking around at idle from the driverr seat made me make it smooth again.. I feared for my engine mounts and clerances to engine bay jank. . After the exhaust is fixed I may mess around with it more. I'm just happy to have it drive around without bucking or stalling which is a WIP.

      Oh and my rear arms may need some attention too.

      Bushings are almost done. Check the date stamp 😂 these are likely the original bushings with 27 years and 243ks on them.     Was too dark to get a pic of the worst one.
