Guitar

Been teaching myself since yr 12 (2001) so that makes it 2 and a bit years. Just started playing with a Uni band (but we need a drummer! :) ) Got a Cort M500 (will post pics later) because i wanted a PRS but couldn't afford one, so i got the only model that makes a rip off of the PRS shape. Basically a non-turbo GTR kitted R33 :thumbsup:

Pretty much play John Mayer exclusively, cos i love acoustic style guitar and need a semi-acoustic if anyone wants to sell or knows someone who wants to sell.

Love any guitar playing which is interesting and fun to play, something different than power chords and 4 chord songs. Hence John Mayer and Dave Matthews, really fun stuff to play. But don't mind to venture down the heavy path either, Tool have some killer riffs, Deftones, Incubus has a kick ass guitarist.

Keyboards/Piano and tenor saxophone. Haven't been playing for a while (too busy at work) but still jump on 'em to play every now and then.

Ever tried fitting two keyboards, PA system, mixer and a drum kit in a R33??? It's bloody hard! (But possible :cheers:)

Guitar...

Played in High School & Uni Band with songs ranging from oldies (to entertain the conservative teachers) to Bon Jovi & Metallicas in Uni... Had a Prince electric but left it back home and I think been sold since I have migrated here...

Now I only have 2 acoustics instruments:

- Ibanez acoustic guitar

- Samick acoustic bass (Greg Bennett styled)

awesome rianto

i like listening to older rock like stones and led zep, but very much enjoy queens of the stoneage, foo fighters (hooray grohl), uhhh...cant remember what else but yeah not really into the whole whinge rock like good charlotte and linkin park and other such songs about dad not accepting me and being a loser at school but look at me now i have enough cash to buy a couple of thousand cdr's to make some albums and sign a contract so i could be manufactured as much as britney spears....i also dont like avril lav...however you spell it

Ever tried fitting two keyboards, PA system, mixer and a drum kit in a R33??? It's bloody hard! (But possible :thumbsup:)

How about two two turntables, two CDJ cd turntables, a DJ mixer, keyboard stand for turntables, 800W amp, 2 x 1m tall PA speakers, speaker stands, 2 gobo lights, light stand, assorted leads, records and CDs into an R32 GTR?

oh, and driver.

...if it don't fit, force it :D

ok so guys, when i get home im going to record my drumming, nothing too long or fancy, and only using a crappy microphone for playing games, but still. it will only be a 4/4 type beat. i'll upload it to my webspace and you guys can dl it, and play some strings (or cnblow you could also do a variation of my beat and add fills etc).

then when you do your samples whatever im going to be using cool edit 2k to put everthing together, editing like crazy, and making the 1st ever SAUVIC & SAU song.

so, whose in? send me a pm and of what you are going to play

    • That ring thing is interesting how it's holding everything together 
    • Hey guys. I have a 400R on its way to Australia from Japan currently and have a few questions I’m hoping others may be able to help with.   Wondering if anyone here has had any luck getting the Sat nav unit to work in Australia!? Assuming the Stereo is as simple as a band expanded and tv won’t work?  Seeing as they’re based off a Q50 which is Aus delivered is there any way to link that system to the nav? Nav modules and head unit are different part numbers and appear slightly different at the rear with plug ins etc. can I put my xtrail sd card into the rv37 and will that convert the maps or update to Australian? Has anyone got any advice here?     also has anyone fitted the factory remote start and Security system once it’s landed in Australia? I put an enquirey to Nissan Japan in via a third party, and they suggested it needs a Nissan Japan dealers device to setup and couldn’t guarantee if one here could do it or not. They can supply and I can physically fit it but to setup I would need a dealers device. Any information here would be appreciated also. I’ve seen one here with it fitted already prior to leaving Japan at a dealer/inporter, so clearly passes compliance and works when fitted Japan and doesn’t need changing here.      also, does the tyre inflation sensors work here? Does anything change with them when the vehicle arrives? Where are they actually situated? I’ve read they have batteries and they need to changing at times and seems like resetting involves the nav system?    any help here would be appreciated and any other aust specific information to help would be great. Looking forward to see what the current generation skyline is like and eager to see how many of the gadgets can be utilised here.  Thanks in advance 
    • Do need to take it with a pinch of salt. One of the adapter failures, they clearly had setup issues with the flywheel.  One of the slipping ones I spoke to and it was pretty clear the throwout was riding, rather than fix, just swapped to a new clutch.    These clutches are being put in anything from 5k offroad 4x4 beaters, GR yaris, 500hp commodores to 1200hp barra monsters. Bound to be some issues in some of them when they are not a simple bolt in affair due to the changes in height.    There is a lot going on in this picture and unless I did the job myself no way to tell what really happened. 
    • I did this mod in 2019  You just have to modify the top bracket of the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU so it sits more upright and closer to the back seat and run a good quality positive battery lead from the engine bay, the negative lead i just bolted down to the body in the boot.
    • Damn... Not the feedback I want to hear.
