Hi,

Been a member, stealing ideas and advice silently from the shadows for a few months. This is my 1st post so be gentle and use some lube. I've simply been recording my progress with my 33 4 door doing some motorsports with plans for more, much more. intending to run Time Attack QLD series and such as well as a few hill climbs and other miscellaneous events and the odd skid here and there to fill in the gaps. I've been uploading the vids of what I have been doing to YouTube so figured I'd share the link here, seems the people most likely to be interested. Saves taking heaps of pics and writing it all down, just put together a vid and let the google corporation store it in the public domain for me. I'll share a couple of links, will depend on what you interested in, if anything as to what you might want to click on. Remember, I'm learning as I go, my 1st skyline and track car, so mistakes are made, but left in as part of my learning progress, and you might not make the same mistake if you see me do it.

1st Episode, a bit cringe worthy but it's where it starts, this and the next 2 sorta tell you what I have to work with. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qez549XL2s

28th Episode, A few skids at QLD raceway, if that's your thing.

29th Episode is the 2015 Jap Nats.

I have no idea if those links will work as I had to type them in manually? I assume it's a bot prevention thing?

Anyway, figured I'd share, if you like it well great, if you don't well good for you too.

Well I must say I'm overwhelmed by all the comments lol. Regardless... Here is the latest event vid.

Plenty of build vids to go with the event vids, I just find the events are a bit more watch worthy as the car is being driven, as opposed to worked on. But if the build stuff is your thing please do like, subscribe and other stuff... I think share is the other thing you're supposed to ask for on youtube lol.

Anyone able to tell me why I can't make this link work.... would be helpful.

Great to see someone getting so much use out of their car, good on you! Hopefully my car doesn't know how to use YouTube, it might get a bit jelly....

 

Thanks man, I think you car might think itself lucky it doesn't get the abuse too

    • 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.
    • Twas your car many moons ago that gave me the idea!
